ian1964 10,780 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 RANGERS supporters must beware of any knee jerk reaction which would see them hand over their hard earned cash to Charles Green in the mistaken belief it was a declaration of faith in their club in its troubled times. They would do well to remember that is exactly what they did last summer in an act of blind faith and devotion to Craig Whyte. It is surely beyond belief the three major fansâ?? organisations, the Association, Assembly and Trust would be so irresponsible as to give their backing to Charles Greenâ??s increasingly desperate pleas to get his mitts on their money? Where would that leave their credibility if this whole thing, this ownership of Rangers which is shrouded in secrecy and mystery, went pear shaped? Looking very silly indeed. At best. At worst, they may even find themselves accused by suspicious people of colluding with Charles Green in conning them. Of course after watching the battles with the now totally discredited Scottish Football Association and a Scottish Premier League which is just about to be wheeled into the intensive care ward, Rangers supporters want to rally to the colours. Rangers supporters are in defiant mood and believe if they pack Ibrox with 40,000 for Third Division matches they will be sticking two fingers up to the SPL. They are right in that belief. But it does not mean they have to buy season tickets and give Charles Green a war chest he does not need to run Rangers in the Third Division. Fans can still go to Ibrox and support Rangers. They can do so on a match-to-match basis. In fact I know of many who have declared their intention to do just that, including at least one pal from the £5,000-a-year Members Section. That is surely the better and more prudent course of action. Supporters can show their defiance and continue to support their team, while still resolutely refusing to back Charles Green. The reason for adopting such a course of action remains clear, though in the stink surrounding the vindictive campaign against Rangers by the SFA and SPL, the question of Rangers ownership has been forgotten. Something Charles Green no doubt secretly gives thanks for. But since Friday and the momentous Scottish Football League vote which has sent Rangers into the Third Division, nothing regarding the ownership of the club has changed or became clearer. Charles Green still steadfastly refuses to name the men who hide behind lawyers, banks and investments trust and who hold the purse strings inside Ibrox. The men who would have first claim on any season ticket money fans might hand over. It is an utterly disgraceful situation which exists inside Ibrox. Nobody knows who owns Rangers. Why will these people not reveal themselves and present themselves for scrutiny? What is it they are hiding? For as sure as night follows day, when somebody hides it is simply because they have something to hide. Is there a link, perchance, between Zeus Capital, who have two of their top men sitting on the Sevco board inside the Blue Room, and Ticketus? Remember Ticketus? Is it really reasonable to believe Ticketus have just walked away and written off the £24M they were conned out of by Craig Whyte? They still want their money back. And what better way for them to get their hands on that money than to infiltrate the Rangers boardroom and start a campaign to urge Rangers supporters to cough up their cash and fill their coffers? Which is why Rangers supporters should be wary of buying season tickets and stuffing the coffers with cash. They should think long and hard before doing it. They should demand Charles Green produce paperwork to prove who the real owners are. That he should unmask the men who hide behind the Blue Pitch Holdings name who with 23per cent of the equity are the biggest players in this game. Only when all of that paperwork is produced, scrutinsed by a top legal team, working on behalf of the Association, Assembly and Trust, and given the okay, would these fansâ?? organisations be in any position to tell their members to buy season tickets. Until then, the ghost of Craig Whyte, the spectre of Ticketus and that £24M looms large over Charles Green and his gang who are inside the Blue Room with the keys to the Trophy Room. With the real powerbrokers, the names cowering in secrecy behind Blue Pitch Holdings, still hiding their identities. The real question isâ?¦â?¦If they have nothing to hide, why are they hiding? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 its a difficult one. rangers need every penny we can spare to recover but by greens own admission we will be making a profit for him as well, not just recovering the team. it would be best if he takes a profit now and goes and we get new owners intent on our recovery so we can back the team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbernauldGers 0 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 The Ticketus stuff again, this guy is not even a joke now. So because Ticketus lost money to CW and Rangers they will just not walk away, but if they had lost it to any other company they would just have to deal with it like all creditors. Leggo only ever gets one thing right, he also has no evidence. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbernauldGers 0 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Also i'm sick and tired of no marks like him telling Rangers fans what to do and what not to do. People that listen to morons like this must struggle to get dressed in the morning. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not difficult in any way. If Green gets shares and sells them in the future then is that really such an issue? The club needs our cash now. The cash won't be going to Green despite the many scare stories that some put around, many due to their own self-interest rather than the club's. Why would it be best if Green left? Who would he sell to that is a better option? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok let me humour you here GS for a moment. So Green goes and Bomber's anonymous gang take over. Are we in better hands? We know nothing of Bombers consortium, he refuses to name names or give any funding details. That he refused to give any details to a closed meeting of vetted Bears should worry everyone willing to give him any credibility, which I don't. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darthter 542 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 A thought on ticketus..... When they lent the money to cw, they insisted on having guarantees in the event that the money couldn't be repaid. That being the case, and the fact that they are £25m+ down, why would they invest MORE cash into the club. They should be persuing their cash through the given securities..... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
