Zappa 0 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 No surprise there if it happens. He'll be making an absolute fortune from the Rangers Retail/Sports Direct deal which Green & co gave him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbr 1,256 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I dont know why anyone blames Ashley for doing what any business man would do , and make serious money out of any circumstance . Its not his fault CG was an arse of a man , neither was it our fault that we got lumbered with him , but we need to deal with whats in front of us and deal with the past at a later date. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For I doubt he would want to see his investment go to the wall. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for dealing in the here and now rbr, so how about we start by finding out why the Club supposedly can't get access to several million pounds owed to it by Rangers Retail Ltd? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is here just to milk what money he can from one sided commercial contracts that work against the club. He has no interest in our long term development aside from furthering his own wealth. He is as toxic as they come and serves absolutely no benefit to us whatsoever. I don't really see the difference here in your logic. Green came to make a quick buck and Ashley is doing the same. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
