chilledbear 16 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I noticed this on FF, I wonder how many of these contracts have been signed. First paragraph is s---e. http://billmcmurdo.wordpress.com/2013/07/23/2-million-and-counting/ ''I have previously written about Finance Director Brian Stockbridge’s sterling work in trimming substantial expenditure from the books but even that has not managed to stop money flowing out of the club. A perfect example is the £140,000 per year contract for PR services given to London PR firm Keith Bishop Associates. I am reliably informed that this firm has not engaged in any PR activity for Rangers, despite being paid this hefty annual retainer. Furthermore, my understanding is that the contract is for a five year term!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

foggy dewhurst 0 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Would love to see all the payments that have been made to others since green came on the scene . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,114 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 We also employ Newgate Threadneedle in London to do Financial PR. That's 3 different companies and a £220k per annum former journalist yet the board take the view that circa £75k for an EGM would be an unnecessary expense. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) If I'm not mistaken, McMurdo's insinuation is that this Keith Bishop Associates contract pre-dates the Whyte takeover and goes back to Martin Bain's tenure as CEO. The resurfacing of this story is a classic deflection and subterfuge tactic designed to try to make the hiring of Jack Irvine out of Club funds seem less appalling. Nice try Bill. Also, the same blog article is from a month ago when Bill was being fed with incorrect facts such as Mather's wages being £500,000 p/a which he then had to retract and correct because it was wrong.

amms 0 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 The McMurdo who writes this blog, is he the same McMurdo that was Mo Johnson's agent? What drives his infatuation with Stockbridge and Co, what's he seeing the rest of us are missing? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
