Rangersitis 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 My first thought on that one was Jim McColl, but it's interesting to see others read into it differently. Would SDM be considered as "someone very powerful" ?? Jerry Jones making good on his promises to Charlie boy? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimpy 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Whoever the mystery individual is (if indeed there is one at all), atonement is a much more acceptable motivation than greed when it comes to investors in Rangers. Either SDM or McColl would be infinitely preferable to what we've got today! Rumour is SDM is the one looking atonement. £16m to be exact. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise old habits die hard and the thought of going back to his stewardship worries me more. With the ****s we know they're not here for forever. Apparently his bid was knocked back. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythebest 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I wouldn't think of Wallace as much of a loss when he's been so weak over the McCoist affair but you can throw that at all the board. Confusing times 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,747 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 As I said last year. At the next AGM we will have new directors blaming the last lot and asking for time and the same fans lapping it up. Dead simple, as only time will tell whether people are successful in what they are doing or whether they can change course. Much like new football managers taking over with the same players at their disposal. Obviously, you had a decent enough chance to be correct, given the state of affairs business- and finance-wise, so deductions on the B-note here. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hildy 0 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Who would I want to take over? Jim McColl? He doesn't want the gig but if he did, he might be inclined to assist in making fan ownership work. At best, he'll be a background figure in a new regime. Mike Ashley? No. His God appears to be money. I don't want Rangers to be a vehicle for his commercial enterprise. Dave King? It would be a short term fix with DK in charge but we'd see too many familiar faces around Ibrox again and he would probably keep Ally on. A new dawn with King might not live up to expectations. Sir David Murray? He would also be inclined to surround himself with the usual suspects, which would not only disappoint me, it would anger me too, but . . . I think he could be persuaded to move the club towards fan ownership which would be a fantastic legacy after all that has happened. If I had to pick one of the above, it would be SDM. I'm not confident that it will happen, though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
