kingdannyb Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Why do you guys think Whyte is still silent? What is he waiting for? Let's be clear about something: The football "club" is worth nothing. The season tickets sold and share floatation are scams designed to rip off the gullible. The only things of worth are Ibrox stadium, Murray Park and the Albion car park. Whyte, Green, Stockbridge, McCoist et al are trousering as much cash as possible before liquidation#2. When FC Zombie disappear again, Whyte will then reappear as owner of those properties in order to sell them on to Rangers 3.0 which hopefully be a fan-owned honourable club, but we'll see.

Footballfirst Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Something on TSFM tonight re a Rangers membership scheme caught my eye. As a bit of background, Rangers Media is generally pro the current board (mainly through being anti Paul Murray or mini Murray as they refer to him). There is a suggestion that Jack Irvine recommended that the Rangers Media mods move all discussion on the Board and financial matters to a separate forum, only visible to registered members (which I'm not). The new forum would also allow Jack and his allies to plant their stories or ideas. Apparently there is an item on the new forum that is indicating that a Rangers Membership Scheme (a la FoH) will be started up within the next couple of weeks. This may be the last throw of the dice to get some cash flow into the club before the merde hits the fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. No doubt there will be a Mk 3 too. And a 4 and a 5. However many it takes. Seriously though, part of a club's 'brand' is its history, it's tradition, it's honours. Rangers' brand is being trashed all over the place. As a result they've publicly gone after a BBC journalist and now Celtic's Chief Exec. How cone they're not threatening legal action to protect themselves? What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey1874 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Celtic AGM Peter Lawwell asked about RFC being same club - Reply: "Rory Bremner can pretend to be Tony Blair" So 'Rangers' are going to complain about this. I know we may be offended if Petrie makes a dig against Hearts. But what do they aim to achieve. Embaress Lawwell? Get SPFL to appoint a Rangers director (do they have any?) to the board? Celtic and Lawwell can look after themselves. But Rangers looking a bit silly, small minded and partisan. Maybe they are the old club after all.
