der Berliner 3,743 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 or king could put in 30 million plus via a share issue. Of course he could. Nothing of what I suggested above bars him from still doing it. A share issue is but one of many options that can and should be utilized. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,562 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 King's (likely) investment actually does have to be thought about carefully with UEFA watching such matters nowadays. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 King wants what's good for Rangers but he also has his own personal ideas about things and is playing his game to that end. It looks like he wants control of the club and the incumbents out. I think he feels the same way about the board as many on here do. They really have performed badly on the finance front while lining their own pockets. I don't think that propping up the current board with new revenue streams is on his agenda. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Ideas .... one of King's companies could equally well become a name sponsor of Ibrox, I'd actually though along the same lines....except King being the main shirt sponsor - the deal with Blackthorn was reportedly a 1 year deal. 3 year sponsorship @ £10m a year. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't UEFA looking into such sponsorship deals as part of clubs trying to get round the FFP stuff? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 kings told us how his money is to go in. lets not waste time making up ways the board can fleece him and remain in total control. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why pay that much for advertising when it will pretty much buy you the club? It would also prevent income from another company. I don't think King wants to just donate his money, he wants control in return. Rich people don't get rich by having a policy of giving money away. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,743 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 kings told us how his money is to go in. lets not waste time making up ways the board can fleece him and remain in total control. "We" waste quite a lot of time lauding King and blasting the board, rather than offer ideas how to get the club forward. If King's (and your's) way of investment revolves solely about a share issue, fine. It still remains just one way to get money into the club. There are others too and - if decently constructed - there is no "guarantee" that these will solely fill certain coffers, as you keep suggesting. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
