stewarty 2,025 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 I'd imagine they might look to bring someone else onto the Board to share the load, which might make sense of a couple of recent events: - Stuart Gibson's interview with This is Ibrox; and - the most recent share issue (could be whoever is earmarked for coming onto the board has sought to increase their shareholding in advance) Speculation on my part however. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 7,030 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Maybe it’s time to appoint someone to find a buyer the present board have done a decent job keeping the club going but they can’t do that forever. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These things depend entirely on finding the right person of course, because the risks are huge, but I don't think our main board is lacking much apart from perhaps an executive chairman (or a strategic CEO) and two or three non-execs who can bring fresh ideas, experience and great networks.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They demand success on the park but howl about the perilous state of our finances, presumably because they think our directors are deliberately refusing to shake the Ibrox money tree. What is it they want the board to do, print money? Never forget that fan is just the short form of fanatic. Fanaticism and logic are arch enemies. At the end Mr. Park put his money in the pot, and his ass in the hot seat. Like his results or not the man deserves some respect. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably still want us to be sustainable or at least breaking even or close to over the next 3 or 4 seasons before we were to look for a buyer. That probably looks like qualifying for the ucl a couple of times and a couple of good uel runs which is doable for this team imo and by the end of this timeframe our coefficient would be a lot healthier, hypothetically. I might be a season or two early with that point though. I know it's happy clapping but I've got time for this board, although I fully understand wanting owners with deeper pockets but that's pointless if it's unsustainable and they're bent. The dream is a self-made billionaire from Govan but idk how many of those are knocking about haha. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dream is a self-made billionaire from Govan but idk how many of those are knocking about haha. The dream was to be owned by Rangers fans who only wanted what's best for the club and who were willing to stick millions in. We've got that and many are still not happy. If there were other bears willing to invest, do people not think they'd have come forward during the last 15 years? Park has been referred to as a clown and a tyrant 🤦♂️ I despair. If many fans carry on as they are they will get the chance that they're calling for and they won't like it! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way some folk are carrying on, what rich Rangers man would want to get involved. Running the club will have its benefits but must also be a constant source of frustration - a 'no win' situation in a lot of ways. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
