Zico Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Still.... No mention of any auditor being appointed. No mention of any onerous contracts been renegotiated. No mention of any NOMAD being appointed. No mention of any date for the intended shares issue. No mention of just how far short of their 45k season ticket tagged they are. No mention of any cost cutting measures, to stem their losses. No mention of when / how they will repay the ?5m Sports Direct loan. No mention of any investment by Dave King, or anyone else. As all these - if they ever happen - would be good news, the media would almost certainly run with the story, and as that hasn't happened, I don't think it's unreasonable to assume all these issues are still outstanding. That, in turn, suggests that the Club are still trading at a substantial loss, and must be burning through their season ticket money at a fearsome rate. If I were one of their fans, I'd be getting increasingly worried at the time being taken to achieve the square root of zero. I thought I read that they were close to appointing a NOMAD? And Richard Gough was in the paper quoting 32k ST holders. Although he seemed to think that one good season in the Championship will have The Rangers selling Tavernier for ?3-4m so you probably have to take that with a pinch of salt. And that McBoilyerheed article is terrible. Does he not even proofread them now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think to be fair they have no need to appoint one now as there is no intention of attempting to re-list on AIM. They have appointed a firm as corporate advisers with the intention of listing on the rather more governance-lax ISDX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF they are not looking for a Nomad as they're not looking to get back on Aim. Did they not appoint an advisor for that junior market this week? Also they got a crowd of 49k tonight. Plus we all know they released 12 players at the start of the summer and I doubt they are paying half those freed up wages to the guys they got in...

As has been pointed out previously, it is not RIFC's intention to respond to every malicious falsehood directed against our Club. Supporters will rightfully have their own view on the agendas and motivation behind such attacks. In many ways it is a sign of the progress that has been made by RIFC that such attacks have become increasingly desperate and far fetched. Since the change in regime at RIFC in March, no remuneration has been paid to the directors of RIFC. This is the Board policy which has been agreed by every director. This may appear strange to those who supported previous regimes where the interests of our Club were not afforded the same priority. The simple fact is that the members of RIFC's current Board place the interests of the Club and its shareholders before their own self interest. Now let's concentrate on the football.

The Gasman Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I've heard from a friend (a Rangers fan) that they are facing a massive bill for work on Ibrox, as almost no maintenance has been carried out over the previous five or so years. This is certainly a rumour that's been circulating for some time, and has been mentioned on here before. He believes the cost could be over ?4,000,000 required urgently just to keep Ibrox open, and possibly as much as a further ?8,000,000 to bring it fully up to standard..! He claims that the authorities have given the club deadlines for some of the more urgent safety related work to be completed, but that to date King doesn't seem to have moved to meet these ultimatums. He also reckons this is one of the reasons they have not yet carried out their new share issue, as they cannot give potential investors the assurances they would require over the value of the ground, and future liabilities for the remedial work. Time will tell if he's right, and if so how accurate his figures are, but I believe that what he's telling me is what he genuinely believes - and this has him really worried.
