forlanssister 3,114 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 People holding back ticket money is not a good thing, although GS and forlan don't seem to be in that category. I renewed my season tickets. I'm not anti-Green I'm just highly sceptical of his business plan and his lack of candour regarding our ownership along with doubts that the "investors" are willing and able to fund us for an extended period of time. Green himself admits he's merely a puppet I'm far more concerned about who are pulling his strings. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythebest 0 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 that's not 100% true. people throwing money at whyte was the wrong thing to do. withholding money might be the right thing to do. it might not mind you its hard to say right now. Would less season ticket money have stopped Whyte? He'd likely still have withheld PAYE, may just have come to a head sooner. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he pulls this off then i shall take my hat off to him because i was expecting them to just accept whatever. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he pulls this off then i shall take my hat off to him because i was expecting them to just accept whatever. He needs to stand strong on the dual contracts issue because that's what they're trying to use to strip us of silverware. Green can't possibly accept that on behalf of the club whether he'd be willing to accept it personally or not. Not that I believe Chris McLaughlin right enough, but if it's true, then Green is in a very difficult situation. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owain 0 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I don't really understand this. Why is an allegation such a big problem? Surely it has to go through the correct course of action before anything can be negotiated upon? We might not be guilty of anything yet. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, they are asking us to accept any consequences coming from the oldco which would leave us as sitting ducks. They have already proved themselves to be dishonourable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accepting their blackmail leaves us a hostage to fortune, a risk not worth taking. We've been punished enough. Couldn't we go to the CAS in europe? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accepting their blackmail leaves us a hostage to fortune, a risk not worth taking. We've been punished enough. Couldn't we go to the CAS in europe? A 'year out' for a football club, one our size especially, is not like a student taking a gap year. I accept you never know but it would be incredibly difficult for us to survive such a senario, certainly in the current form of Ibrox being our home, the training ground etc. Not playing football this season really could be the end, fans would need to start an amateur side for there to be a Rangers, no more Ibrox or league football for a long time. I'd rather not take the gamble personally, and get revenge further down the line if we're really shafted. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
