    Just a thought, couldn't Rfff offer to pay for a venue in Glasgow? Would the board be obliged to take it considering it would be effectively free for the club? If so could Rfff actually do it?

    I agree but he must have realized his bid had a very small chance to be successful.. to expect guys like Parkco and King who have just invested millions to then dilute this significantly was just never going to happen imo, Only way it was ever going to work imo was if he got them onboard with his bid.
  3. BeardyGuts
    Well if he can pick us up for 20 million i think that is a snip. Granted additional investment is needed but in a CL year we were turning over 70 million (iirc) and non CL around 45 million. So if we were well run not spunking money away left right and centre he will easy make his money back i would think.

    I'm by no means an expert, but surely there must be some legal recourse against this sort of thing? Surely this would count as the directors not working in the interest of the company? Like i said not an expert but i can't imagine its legal for a large shareholder to shoe horn in your own management team, sign the company up to all sorts of contracts in favour of his separate company then bugger off.

    I seem to recall that King offered a significant sum of money and the board turned it down in favor of their pal Ashley. They just pick and choose facts as it suits them.... but nae doubt there will be folk out there that believe them word for word.

    Secured on McLeod transfer

    How can we be laying people off yet still looking to take players on???
  8. BeardyGuts
    Nah minimum is to get up, expected is to win the league. Ally has to go though in my opinion. Been saying it now since Div 3... cant even bring myself to list the reasons now.

    Horrible to say this but the reality is the Rangers as we knew it is long gone. This new reality of worrying about finances isn't what football supporters should be doing. Just think back to when all the post CW shit happened,the majority of the fans were absolutely fine with taking a measured approach to getting back to where we belong. Not to go crazy and spunk millions on players like was done in the past. Now here we are a mere 3 years later right back in the same bloody position again. How the board could not feel the animosity towards them in the summer and realise the fans were simply not going to throw cash at them again... Surely they should have thought well, lets not pay a fortune to Miller, Boyd, Zaliukas, lets see how things go and pick up free agents if we need to and the money is there. But no they will sit there and blame the supporters for being sensible instead of looking at themselves in the mirror. What an absolute farce. And i know he is a legend but Super is equally guilty in all of this. He is behind the scenes and could surely of seen that the money wasnt there for him to spunk away, yet he did it anyway.

    Couldnt disagree more. He is always busting a gut up and down the touchline.. look at the Hearts game on Saturday, chasing dead balls.
  11. BeardyGuts
    I reckon he'll be back in the team with Zaliukas at centre half and Jig will move into centre mid. Templeton or McLeod to be dropped.
  12. BeardyGuts
    This would be a disaster... he's arguably our most creative player (certainly last season anyway) and by a country mile the best defender we've got. It just irritates me more and more every time I hear new news that we wasted a fantastic opportunity to restructure the club with a fresh start and in the end are back in a worse mess than pre-Whyte.
  13. BeardyGuts
    He jumped ship too quick agreed but it was injuries that really ruined his career. Signed for Stoke and was injured before he even kicked a ball. Would have been a cracking player imo.

    Even if they do suspend Wallace what is it going to achieve nothing when its the Easdale's and co pulling the strings... We need to either get rid of the board or figure out a way to make it work with the current board members. If Wallace does get hung out to dry by the board then we will just face another expensive hunt for another puppet CEO.

    Glad i seen your post first because I was about to dive in head first!

    Here is the piece Greg i stalking about: We have had a fantastic on-line response with invitations coming from many supporters’ clubs across the UK asking RangersFirst to present the scheme to their club members. We are getting very very close to our next milestone of 1000 members and to celebrate this incredible achievement we will be giving away a signed 2003 Rangers top to one of our lucky members. But what I am not sure about is a member someone who is donating or just someone who has signed up? I am donating so getting the mails but is someone who isnt donating. Big difference between the two.
  17. BeardyGuts
    Can't make it myself but would be good to get an update on number of members and average donation from each member, Also the number of signups a week and the trend increasing/decreasing. Don't see any harm in that information being in the public domain, they should stick a counter on the website imo.
  18. BeardyGuts
    Does anybody know if someone is actively targeting the supporters clubs further afield with these schemes? For example the North American ones and Dubai etc I would have thought most of these guys would sign up since they can't really have season tickets I would have thought.
  19. BeardyGuts
    I signed up for Rangers First. For me it was a no brainer, the club has been a total embarrassment for the past few years, and I'm not saying the fans can run it better but at the very least we will have the club at heart rather than our pockets. Now is a real time where we finally have the opportunity to unite and become a force to slowly nudge the train back onto the tracks starting hopefully with a 5% holding in the club. We have the opportunity to build to the point where our voice is heard not just on Saturday afternoon at 3pm but in the board room.
  20. BeardyGuts
    I'm nae an expert but would that not be illegal?
  21. BeardyGuts
    We should be using this an opportunity to shift some players on rather than recruit more. The league is more or less sewn up so a two/three players like Cribari, Hutton, Shiels need to go to save some cash. Plus the reality is if they are not good enough for us in League One then they never will be. Give the younger lads more game time and start putting together a list of potential signings for the summer. If we start signing players now, considering it is always said that prices for players is inflated in January, we have a coach and a board that don't have a clue.
  22. BeardyGuts
    You think they must realise they can't do this alone and need fans support, and an easy way for them to partly achieve this but not give up control of the board is to elect two of the requisitioners.
  23. BeardyGuts
    i can't believe Stockbridge got as much votes as he did... bloody hell.

    Here is the official announcement on AIM for anyone interested : http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail.html?announcementId=11781954

    I'd like to see us giving the fringe younger players in the first team a game, like McKay and Crawford for example.
