Frankie 8,570 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I can agree with that mate. The guy is a bare-faced liar is some ways. But I can assure you 100% that Rangers FC are for sale and if anything DM won't even be here next season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraser54 0 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Id like to believe what fraser/dunn are saying, but im afraid i have to agree with the rest. DM is a businessman, not a football man. Simple as that im afraid. a buisness man he has put his own money into rangers to get there debt down to 6mil he hasnt made any money he has lost millions david murray is a legend 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,570 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Sorry Fraser that's just not true... Yes, he has put in a decent amount of money (including underwriting the 2005 share issue) but he will get that money back and more when he does leave. The fans have put in more money than David Murray by a long, long way which makes the inaction from Murray with regard to defending the club and it's fans even more grating for us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I'm of the opinion that DM will not make a profit from the sale of Rangers but nor will he make a loss. It looks like he'll pretty much get his money back. However his companies will have raked in tens of millions over the years and his son is probably pretty rich on the back of some of the deals. The fans put about around 25M a year into the club in ticket sales alone as well as about another 15M in merchandise, programmes and catering. Indirectly we are responsible for all revenues from television and advertising. I don't think a penny of our 60M turnover comes from DM. So in the last 18 years, the fans have put in well over half a billion pounds into Rangers. Unfortunately, it's a shame we couldn't have made our presence felt more during the share issue. I am as culpable as everyone else although I think the timing of the issue was terrible, just coming up to Christmas. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,570 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Yes, but we can now contribute to the soon to be relaunched 'GerSave' scheme which will be hugely important in terms of the fans being more involved with the club and in the discussions with any new owner(s). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
