OnlyOneAmoruso 0 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 The only constants appear to be Murray and Johnstone. Whether Johnstone is part of the consortium or will remain as chairman is anyone's guess. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,674 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Your guess would be better than mine I think. Not at all - like you (I assume) I'm only basing my guesswork on what I read of forums. I could reel off about ten names (see my Gersnet 2009 article below) but I've no idea who is involved and who isn't. Not to mention why and to what degree those that are involved. http://www.gersnetonline.co.uk/2010/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=132:the-ibrox-stakes-runners-and-riders&catid=1:articles&Itemid=67 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbr 1,270 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 (edited) Who ever is involved , they really need to get their finger out , there is a real difference between striking the right deal and cutting their noses off . Also at the moment there is a real or maybe percieved level of goodwill towards these unknown financial saviours , however if as we hope we win 53 then the apathy that our support wears like a badge of honour will see that diminish IMHO , with the attitude being well whats the problem were still winning , It's going to be a long few months Edited February 3, 2010 by rbr 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,674 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 rbr: I'll defer to my accounting peers on here but I'd have thought the cost of the club goes up the longer we stay successful. Sure, the bank may want out now but a slowly recovering economy, a slowly recovering commercial property market and a slowly recovering Rangers FC may see them think they can get their full value by sitting on the club - especially if we win the SPL. What is certain, leaving the fans to make their mind up on the good guys and bad guys via drip-feeding speculative information on forums isn't agreeable. More and more people are seeing that though so we can only hope those that observe on their behalf are reporting back as such. I notice the drip-feed tap was turned up a bit yesterday but more credible documented information is respectfully requested. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,674 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Well, I'm no captain of industry like these people so one can only hope they are playing hard ball successfully. I'm sure they're confident of their strategy. As already posted, I can't comment accurately on their plans for the club until they speak publicly about them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
