Zappa 0 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I thought it was financed out of the share issue in 2000. That share issue was a year before Murray Park opened, so it's fair to assume that you're spot on. Worth noting too that it was that same share issue where Dave King invested £20m which was almost 40% of the total funds raised, so in some ways Dave King might have actually put up a significant amount of the money for Murray Park. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waltersgotstyle 307 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Sorry, but that's completely ridiculous. Murray Park is certainly expensive to run, but it just needs it's operational costs properly streamlined. Selling it to move to a smaller facility after all the time and money that's been invested in it over the years would be total and utter madness. Rangers will be needing those world class training facilities to help us attract top quality players again when we're back in the top flight. My thoughts exactly, some of the comments on here are down right stupid. Murray Park is top facility - all top clubs need a good training ground. I can't imagine many players signing for us if we are kicking a ball about on the astro turf across from Ibrox. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP certainly is a top facility. For what it costs though we need to get more out of it.And judging by what we saw on the park last season we're not doing that Edited May 20, 2014 by RANGERRAB 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
