Alva-Jambo Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 If anyone dabbles in the markets , it will also be the man Ashley through his front company, for example. If that outfit got themselves into the english league setup through Ashley, a pound a share would look cheap. Of course - I am hypotheticisin!

Floyd Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 It's a serious point though. Some despicable people associate themselves with Heart of Midlothian, so does that make us all vile human beings by proxy? Nearly all the Rangers fans I know are guys that love their football and not KKK loving loyalists like the people in those awful photos. Not often I agree with Scott, but he's bang on the cash here. It's wrong to tar all Rangers fans with the same brush, in the same way it's wrong to assume that we are all John Wilson style Hearts fans who want to invade the pitch and leather Neil Lennon. Every football club in the world, has it's fair share of undesirables who tag on to the club, our club included, so although these pictures are vile we should be wary of assuming that they are all Rangers fans. And to echo other points, I really don't see why they need to appear on the thread as it's got hee haw to do with Rangers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly all the Rangers fans I know are guys that love their football and not KKK loving loyalists like the people in those awful photos. Hearts definitely have a small minority who bring shame to our club through their mimicking of bigotry best kept in the west. However, the Glasgow clubs have a majority of fans who are bigoted and are clearly Scotland's shame, just ask anyone in Manchester. Rangers fans never argued against their clubs anti catholic stance including not signing catholics until a few years ago . Why ?. The big influence, that other clubs (thankfully) don't have is the Irish tribalism that drives them to their hatred built on sectarianism and bigotry. Why do you think the police will once again have to double (at least) their resources when the ugliest derby in the world comes round again in a few weeks. Even in West Lothian the police will out in force. Anyone who thinks differently is in dream world or has a different agenda! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strachsuit Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Is that 7 weeks to hold an AGM or call one? as it takes 4 weeks notification? so in theory it could be 3 weeks to call one? 7 weeks to hold one. Well, technically 7.5 if you include the days between Christmas and New Year. They have to declare the meeting in the next few weeks or they will break the rules of the LSE. And Daniel Stewart are still suspended so I wonder what's happening there. Mike might just be realising how much crap there is to sort out at ?1brox before he can start to strip them down!

jamboz Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I think none of these photos have anything to do with the rangers situation and if Farin wants to post pictures of loyalist halloween photos he should start a thread in The Shed. Sick and tired of this secterian one-upmanship and the poppy frenzies from all sides. Makes me disillusioned with scottish football. Strange that that is what makes you disillusioned with Scottish football and not the last 20 years of contrived rangers dominance, you know the cheating with the green light of the authorities, pressuing the bank to force us and others to sell players at knock down prices and the horrific actions of the footballing authorities to shoehorn sevco back in at any cost whilst taking no action against them for incorrectly registered players or for their inflammatory remarks and statements in the press.

ToadKiller Dog Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I know the existential debate was moved to a separate thread ,but as the the thread title says its about the soap opera that is the Rangers, the thread has long since moved on from just a forensic look at the rangers money problems . There are lighter moments some funny some not so all through the 1000 plus pages . After all this is a football forum . The make up and actions of their support is as much part of the story as Charlie Chuck , Ashley or anybody else . Yes maybe the pictures of the loyalists tubes might be a bit tenuous link . But it is fair to say that the loyalist mind set did/does play a big part in how the rangers support reacted still react to the events of the soap opera .

Strange that eh ?.. this has always been the crux of the matter for me. the buying of history, you just cant, its a total sham. rangers ceased to exist and sevco bought the assets but you cant buy human deeds created in the past, you can buy the medal/trophy but you cant buy the deed.

They think there might be a bidding war, whereas I can see other teams smelling blood and put in derogatory offers for their keeper, Wallace, Aird, McLeod and Clarke, migt just get the ?2m from that lot in total.

Toonpack Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I'd be amazed if there was any cash injection from Ashley, if there is it will be a loan. Also his Newcastle model is that out of whatever funds are available the transfer fee is paid in full and also the players wages (and any agents fees) for the duration of the contract are covered in full. A ?10 Mill war chest won't buy you two $5Mill players or even three ?3Mill players in Ashley world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
269miles Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I think privately the Sfa are happier with Ashley coming in than the lying king tbh. It saves them having to answer uncomfortable questions re his suitability with his criminal convictions etc. Remember Ashley's true wealth is not in question either & he'll keep the lights on in order to sell more shell suits & anything else he can put the crest on to make a buck. The SFA won't really care who took over but Ashley is obviously a more acceptable business face. Get ready for the SFA to ditch any objections (if they ever really had any) as this can all be disposed of under the old adage that rules are for other (non Rangers) clubs. Another good aspect from the SFA point of view is that you can be sure Ashley will muzzle any dissent from the press )did I really say that?). Ashley will have the Glasgow churnalists eating out of his hand in no time. He'll be like the smiling inn keeper in les miserables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Ashley is notoriously media shy & shuns the limelight giving practically zero interviews etc, the succulent lamb brigade will have little succour from him to help sell tabloids & whip the hordes into a frenzy with imo. His appointed man at ?1broke will be the media's point of contact, not Ashley who prefers his privacy tbh. Exactly this. Keith Jackson & his ilk will be gutted that they will actually have to write and investigate a story rather than just being given a Jack Irvine press release to rehash as their own work.
