The big thing for Rangers fans is ego - many newspaper articles that the likes of Traynor placed/facilitated are to make them feel good and give them a reason to keep on keeping on (ie. buying the replica shirts, turning up on match days etc). This investor story will have some truth to it (and due diligence taking place) however the timing of the story when football operations around Europe are being suspended is all to give hope to the stupid when season ticket money will soon be needed. Caereful now, he's not here to defend himself" lol. Quote

Glamorgan Jambo Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 Wonder why Traynor got launched as that's what seems to have happened (I've seen a couple of stories from his lackeys about his replacements lack of 'credentials'). Possibly Michael Stewart-gate but much more likely Morelos tampering/Morelos translation/Someone throwing stones at him while walking the dog-gate. The most ridiculous set of stories ever produced in the Scottish Football Press in recent memory and the competition is intense. Quote

Sounds to me like Traynor gave the Daily Record the story of the £20 million investment too early and he's paid for it especially as the investor is now backing off. Quote

The answer is I don't know but it seems from the stream of stories about the replacement's colourful background plus a few snidey digs about his lack of experience in Scottish football that someone's back is up. Also the Record story stated that he was Traynor's replacement. Quote

But reading the other posts on here it would look like a dick in amoungst bigger dicks. They will certainly go bust before we do and I would hope this is Ann trying to force the GFA into a decision. Just a shame the SMSM won't make their demise a big issue. They will try to play it down so that Huns3 can start at the top. Quote

Lovecraft Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 Why would anyone invest £20 Million into a company that is constantly running at a loss and also having their shares continually diluted? Quick answer: They wouldn't. Especially now. Quote

However, he was looking for certain assets to be realised (an unfit striker perhaps) to ensure that his cash didn't just get used to finance a structural deficit. When that didn't materialise during the January transfer window, he backed off but remained as a potential investor. Recent events with the suspension of games and the lack of income have almost certainly made him even more reluctant to commit himself. I believe that last week's media briefing about the pending investment, was a not to subtle attempt to force his hand and make the investment he was contemplating. It could be that the club is teetering on the brink with its cash flow (much like Hearts) and without the safety net of ST sales. It may be that other directors or investors like Park or Taylor may step in to cover payroll costs, but as ever it's very much a case of "watch this space". Quote

Wants the company to be run as a sustainable entity much like the two MA had in place before King fecked things up.
