Are you on the spacecake aswell DB I fail to see what relevance your post has to mine, that you quote above in post#32.
-
I certainly don't think it the type of reaction you would expect from a potential office bearer that considered the role more important than himself. Nor one that had any vision.
-
For the avoidance of doubt, can you please list the "clubs enemies" as per your view or opinion.
-
They hate Rangers but.............IMO you are seriously misguided. Tin Foil Hat Misguided.
-
Wait a minute So are you saying that this was all a 'cunning plan' devised by a 'cabal', from Reid to Fullerton (Celtic-Minded) to take out or seriously 'wound' their arch-enemy on their quest for World (or SPL) Domination ? Tell me you don't believe anything along those lines, please Rab
-
Opportunity, as in 'opportunist mechanism'. It's obviously not in Lloyds interests to let the Murray group go down. The 'threat' effectively applied to Rangers although it was made in the knowledge that it extremely unlikely that the IBC would be able to further resist. Asking you same question..... Why do you think LBG were so keen for CW to get Rangers ?
-
Journalist's might like to follow that up.
-
18M pounds sterling and what might have been coming down the road can't be considered "small beer". The Murray Group numbers were much greater but didn't seem to have such 'opportunities' and hence, you can't compare them in the way you seem to be doing,... apples and carrots. However, by hook or by crook, an opportunity was found at Ibrox and the bank would seem to have benifitted more than most from it's realisation. 'Follow the Money'................
-
I think you have to go back further and to the alleged threat from the bank (direct or via agent) that they would force insolvency if the CW deal wasn't signed.
-
Going forward, I think this is a may be a more relevant and productive direction to look in. ie. looking at any info any of us may have or be able to find out about how Ashely/Llambias went about things at Newcastle United, including the thread topic.
-
I think this is the only conclusion one can reach after reading the 'authoritive posts' from Barca72 that contained such 'significant and relevant research'.
-
Not only don't you forget what you never knew but now you know something about me that I'm as yet unaware of. Your some machine..............."Vorsprung durch Technik" !! . Perhaps you could enlighten me.
-
That one line enboldened above shows that you never really knew, what you say you don't forget. There is no simple longterm solution and your lack of respect towards others compounds your dupability.
-
All three have one thing in common. That they got very well rewarded for their time on the multi-layered gravytrain where everyone are "big Rangers men". Obviously a very different narrative is behind each man and their time at Rangers.
-
You seem to want to forget the Past and what led to this point when it would be more instructive for you to learn from it, regardless of your age. The past is serial gulibility that for some turns into stupidity when they refuse to learn lessons. The Present is an omnishambles at all levels and that has everything to do with what has gone by and the chancers that many supporters have backed blindly. It is also about police investigations that encompass periods when a substantial part of the current main shareholding block was in the building. The short to medium term Future is dark and it is only to what degree, that is to be determined. Perhaps you should respect supporters who are sick and scunnered of all the dishonesty and greed and have decided not to continue funding a dishonest omnishambles, they want transparency and the present incumbents don't deliver. They tend to respect the decisions of those who still attend.
-
"Punch drunk" and/or scunnered and it will steer an increasing amount of people and perhaps their children away from Ibrox. 29,458 paid to watch the sad spectacle that was a home daw against Alloa, the lowest crowd for a League match at Ibrox for some considerable time, I'd think.
-
The problem being that Ashely winning doesn't neccesarily mean Rangers winning. Too many supporters are once again getting behind an individual and not thinking about the club. Many of them have spent the Rangers soap opera in a serially duped state.

Rangers are scheduled to play Livingston at Ibrox on Saturday the 20th of December and would surely want the AGM to take place prior to this date if there was no particular reason to delay it further. There has obviously been reason(s) for the accounts and AGM to have been delayed beyond October. If the Main stand at Ibrox is to be used again then they'll need X days to take things down and have it ready for the Livingston game., which would make the 16th or 17th as possibilities. If it were to be on the 17th, they don't have long to publish accounts and announce the AGM. Last year the AGM was announced on the 26th of November (letter dated 25th) for the AGM on the 19th of December which was 23 clear days of notice. If it were to be the 17/12/14 then the annoucement would need to be made by about the 24th of November, which is next Monday. If held at Ibrox, then the Monday following the Livingston game, the 22nd is possible but not desirable given it's proximity to Xmas and any work preparing the event may come at an increased price due to it being a Sunday. If it isn't announced by the middle of next week, I'd say they are probably struggling to get their ducks in a row.
-
Yes, a picture is being painted rather than a case for the prosecution being prepared.
-
You would probably have to ask Mike Ashely. His two consultants have been reviewing the situation at Ibrox with one of them now on the RIFC board and beginning to implement 'austerity measures', eg. 10 redundancies announced in the media yesterday. Scope would seem to be limited for drastic cuts due to a lack of money to fund them and that Nash & Wallace have already trimmed down what were probably the 'easiest' to make. So, it comes back to MA, a large sum of money, the going concern, the SFA, DK angle, other unseen factors/alternatives. GW talked of accounts in September or October. DS talked of a set date for the AGM that he couldn't reveal. Trying desperately to get their ducks in order with the faint noise of a distant chap on the door in the recent background.

I think that is partly unfair. Scotland have been playing well under a manager who seems to be the right man in the right place at the right time. He has moulded a lot of fair to decent players into a team that produces more than the sum of it's parts. We are in a very difficult group but are digging out results and have given ourselves a fighting chance. Last night was a friendly, where a tired team came up against an England side that performed to a high level after a mediocre display on Saturday. I'm just glad that we got our priorities right and picked up the three points last Friday. There is a feeling of optimism around the national team that hasn't been there for years and whilst we recognise we aren't going to win the competition, there is no good reason to dismiss the progress since Strachan took over, nor the feel-good factor that presently exists.

Maybe Sports Direct will take on some of the workload.

Amazing to think that lad Robertson was playing for Queens Park less than 18 months ago ! England played well and it was alway going to be difficult to produce that level of intensity/performance, so soon after the Ireland game. We actually go off lightly with 1- 3. Gibraltar next and a good chance to ease our way back in to things next March.

Interesting ! It's going to be about making things stick. A squealer is required. Wide experience essential with suitable evidence at hand a great advantage. Apply at a Polis station near you. You may or may not find that you are already on the shortlist.
