BrahimHemdani 1 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 That's pretty selfish BH, we should put the Club first! [emoji6] No, the Club should put the fans FIRST. And I thought I it was rather neat combination of RF & RST if I may say so. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Rangers Shareholding Supporters. Not all members will be shareholders nor will the entire organisation necessarilly be share owning. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aweebluesoandso 290 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) Not all members will be shareholders nor will the entire organisation necessarilly be share owning. The aim of the new joint group i would hope, would be two or even three fold, Firstly to help the support get a seat on the board and gain influence through increased shareholding. Secondly to give the club financial help through direct financing from a membership scheme, also interest free loans in times of emergency. Thirdly and this is my personal wish, to purchase assets like the Albion Car Park. The support would own the land in trust in perpetuity for and on behalf and benefit of the club, The club would get the purchase price upfront, once the insurances, land duties, wages and taxes are paid. The club would get the balance of the revenue to spend on capital project or maintenance of Ibrox. It's a win win for the club. Some supporters will never join a supports group or membership scheme, i understand that. So they can't complain what the group is called, those who do join understand what their Direct Debit pays for. If it's any of the above options mentioned, then they are shareholder or part owners in the club.

BEARGER 1,830 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Not all members will be shareholders nor will the entire organisation necessarilly be share owning. That would be a big disappointment. If RST & RF merge with the other groups into on organisation what happens to the shares they own? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
plgsarmy 111 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 Not all members will be shareholders nor will the entire organisation necessarilly be share owning. Actually they will as a proportion of the monthly contribution will go towards a group shareholding. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEARGER 1,830 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 That will be determined by the members. Could be I'm not reading this correctly, but is it the case that the new fans group will not have the object of ownership of the club or at least a substantial shareholding? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The group will be aiming for a substantial shareholding but will have other functions too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
