    It's only the interest premium that has the option to convert to shares.

    Maybe, but it might depend on how GL sees the coming months developing.

    They would seem to have him over a barrel unless he was willing to push hard for timely repayment, even if it meant the club having to sell the corresponding secured asset. Would be a convenient way for the sp.ivs to head towards an insolvency event regards 'finger of blame'.

    They wouldn't try to mislead anyone. That 80M offer 'rumour' was later proved to be pure make believe just as the huge investment into Rangers. Toxic earning his corn by misleading. Think Toxic, McMurdo, 50M Blue Pitch investment, after qualifying for CL. Note Always leave a qualitative get-out, eg. "If they succeed in getting a buyer at that price" / "after qualifying for CL"

    Green has always been a fan of that tactic (the threat). Think growing potatoes at Bramall Lane and something similar he said to John Brown back in the summer of 2012. He has a case of Rangeritis because he's made a pile of cash out of us and probaly continues to do so. The day he doesn't, he won't give a fcuk if we continue or not.

    Easdales looking to launder their image...........................difficult job, even for the bespoke spin doctor of the dodgy. Last time they were looking at the back of Jim McColl it was with metaphorical sharp kitchen implements in mind.

    No, but that's where part of any new money would have to go unless loans were renegotiated. Wouldn't look good for potential investors or creditors patience. Thus far in we've had Wallace's requests for investment being received with a NO. And on the other side of the sp.iv divide, we've had Green et al spinning kites of bull. Looks like it will be going to the wire. There should be news sent to the markets on the day the loans you mention, are due to be paid by.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the sp.ivs put money in, secured on assets and then went about sucking as much of it out again as possible aswell as the positioning of assets.

    I very much agree that the immediate present is what is important. I used the CL qualification as an illustration rather than a serious projection. Note 1. The 120 day business review (known elsewhere as 'buying time and a pie-in-the-sky') stated the objective.... "Season 2016/17 - Target to be SPFL Premiership Champions and establishing the platform to be competitive in UEFA competition. In financial terms, participation in UEFA competition via Europa League or Champions League, provides access to a prize fund that is a multiple of that available in the domestic game. Rangers need to be playing in UEFA competition every season in order to obtain access to this substantial prize fund." Note 2. Regards the Pie in the sky, David Somers ate it and is looking for a restaurant that serves something more substantial, like a 'black hole'. As Richard Wilson said the other day, 120 days after the 120 day review nothing is really happening regards acting upon review. The main issue being the lack of working capital for the season, never mind addressing infrastructure. A Double Omnishambles (RIFC and TRFC) can't go on indefinately in this way.

    Bottomline is for every pound that goes into Rangers, a percentage of it will be sucked up into the trough where the benificiaries of the 'onerous contracts' and similar, all feed.....The club in part, is set-up and run to serve the interests of the pigs at the trough. This is part of the 'trick'......don't fund the 'onerous contracts' = not funding the club and thus becomes the ultimate emotional blackmail. This 'faultline' runs deep and doesn't appear to be sustainable or indeed compatible with funding the football operation at a level that could compete for the CL group stages (ie.real cash). Reminds me of The Judas Blogger and his fairystories about Blue Pitch chipping in with up to 50M after Rangers make the CL again.

    There is a difference between aggression and stupidity. Opposition players know very well which description better fits Moshni and will seek to take advantage of it. Solution (IMO) Try and offload in the next 5 days.

    Decent offers plus a reasonable assumption of more uncertainty given communications (or lack of) with club (CEO/Green). Difficult to say what happened (or not) wrt LW back in the summer of 2012 but in recent transfer windows he seems to have prioritised other things rather than money. I have heard "Other things" being called family reasons, want of staying at Ibrox and wanting to stay to coach another team in his spare time. I'd venture it was a combination of those with possibly unknown others involved aswell.

    He won't be able to, he seeks to cast the 'evil eye' or discredit you without offering anything, never mind substance. Reminds me of being savaged by a two day old, three legged lamb.

    LW somewhat bucked the trend of what players would usually do in such a situation but to suggest that he suddenly becomes one of the Greatest Ever Rangers because of it, is beyond exaggeration+.

    I think the big story at present is 'How are we going to get our financial problems sorted out ?' You write as if the "problems" were a relatively insignificant bridge to cross. Forget whoever else and what they may say and address the "problems" At least you have been consistent over the years..................

    Those in and around the board who have been and are progressively squeezing the cash/taking 'their cut' had two main issues regards their ongoing control and revene stream as the 'Dsyfunctional Lying Circus' (Rangers board) came towards the end of 2013. 1. Executive Control: They achieved this at the AGM. 2. Getting Fans Onside with Open Wallets: They appreciated problems, lied throught their teeth and put the membership scheme on the table. Number Two has been a difficult nut to crack as more and more supporters see through the guff.

    One of two articles I've seen this morning that very subtly push the 'siege mentality' card for no good or justifiable reason. I have seen this coming from various quarters in the last couple of weeks. The other I saw today was the Stephen Halliday piece in The Scotsman http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/spfl-lower-divisions/crisis-rangers-punters-still-show-up-in-numbers-1-3519699

    One way or tuther there should be news of whatever the current situation is this week. The markets will surely need to know what is going on regards the loans/securities as the deadline passes. As for the option re.shares IIRC it didn't apply to the sum that was loaned. It was an option regards accumulated interest. Rangersitis I'm due you a reply in the Lounge: will try to get it done today.

    The irony is that some of those who most push their apparent "staunchness", "loyalism" etc. are those who cosied up to those who have helped divorce the club further from it's 'traditions'. Some for being not very bright, others for being led and others perhaps for their own ongoing interests, outwith or within groups.

    That reads like turning on the TV only for the film to already be half way through.

    What's the big deal ? Scottish Football is generally an unimaginative and uninspiring hatefest.

    Let me indulge you and say that these "individuals" you speak of were out to maximise damage (more probable but taking each individual seperately) or even in your opinion "put Rangers out of business altogether" What circumstances gave them such an opportunity ? Was it a plot with seeds sown by "individuals" you mention or were they 'surfing a wave' of irresponsible and even wreckless negligence that originated from an autocratic leader in the Rangers boardroom ? 1. We've been distracted from our own inner problems repeatedly. 2. If anyone or group has documentation that can bring a result against A, B or C for doing X, Y or Z then IMO better not to pish around with Five Part instalments but instead get it out there right away.
  24. buster.
    I'm glad to see the likes of Richard Wilson (BBC) concentrate on the more important and current issues within Ibrox. IMO we need to have our eyes focused upon Ibrox rather than building up some kind of familiar 'hatethink' that only seems to serve those conducting the direction of attention and spin. If there is something significant to divulge that has documents to back it up, then why not just put it all out there rather than drip feeding ? Our main enemies are 'within' or around those 'within'.

    That's exactly what it is. The shortlist he is supposed to be on doesn't extend to the bookmakers 'longlist' of over 62 names (see oddcheckers *). This would surely give Charlie Mann (BBC reporter who said "shortlist") the opportunity of asking a bookie for a price not far off three figures if he were confident in the story. * http://www.oddschecker.com/football/football-specials/crystal-palace/next-permanent-manager
