craig 5,199 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'm not sure how you could come to that conclusion based on what I said. especially my op. perhaps I have been dragged of topic if so I appologise. No need to apologise GS. I just thought that you were having a go at Green rather than where any issue should have been aimed, RFFF. If I am mistaken then it is ME that owes you an apology 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComeOffit 0 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Green couldn't give two fucks about our old titles, so I'd imagine that the less he has to spend on them the better, from his point of view. They don't have a re-sale value, and it's not if he is the sole owner of the club who will lose out if we happen to lose them. Always annoys me when he harps on about "buying our old titles". You can't buy titles. You can become the owner of the trophies etc, but it doesn't mean you own the titles. The titles belong to the players and management that won them, not some fly by night that's been here two minutes. I'm probably alone in this, but I think the RFFF money would be put to better use by paying some of the oldco's small creditors, or maybe even compensating the old shareholders. Let green pay for the defence of "his" titles if he is so passionate about it. The last I heard, green wasn't even going to the meetings to try and defend our position re title stripping. His most recent defence was "it's fuck all to do with me". 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was his defence not more like "It is a kamgaroo court based on bullshit and we see no reason to entertain them" ? Of course, both sides can dress it up however they like. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did mention something about kangaroo's, yes, but I think his main argument was that it is oldco business. He doesn't make too much sense when it comes to oldco and newco affairs. His moaning about paying oldco football debts is a perfect example of his confusion. We can't really claim all our history, but in the same breath write off all our historic football debts. I know he paid them, but with a heavy heart. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly seemed at odds with itself in suggesting oldco debts were not his burden of responsibility at the same time as saying that we were keeping all our history. Had me concerned on how others would react to it, that is for sure. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way of ever making that happen of course. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a liability in this battle against title stripping. "I think everyone knows that it's Rangers that are playing at Ibrox whether its owned by company A or company B. "Our main rivals - or our former main rivals - across the city they have had three different companies in their lifespan. "In fact if you look at their corporate structure now it's more complicated than Rangers' is. "So it's not about an individual or a corporate company with a registration number. This is Rangers and will always be Rangers." Yeah, ok... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
