He " Dave King " is killing the club do you not lay any of the blame at the feet of the board BH?
-
Pathetic response from you Rab its time the fans took some of the blame for this mess we allowed the club to be picked up for peanuts by Charles Green and now we want Dave King to just hand over millions to a bunch of jokers. What did you do when we where going into admin? can you honestly say you done enough? because i can honestly say i didn't do enough i got lazy and expected someone to sort it all out for me its time for us to all pull in the 1 direction and stopped the petty point scoring King is the only show in town but if he reads your posts he will start to wonder why he is bothering.

BH thank you for your very knowledgeable input but i think most fans would pay to see the back of these incumbents "The board" why you feel the need to sit on the fence or back this board is beyond me and is cowardly it is clear for all to see that this board are not fit for purpose. Can you tell me what do these board members bring to the club that someone else can't? what special characteristics do you see that gives you confidence in these people?.

Personally if Dave King purchased the club for £50.000.000 tommorow and said i want every penny back and i will be increasing season ticket prices for the next ten years but it will clear out Blue Pitch, Margarita Holdings and all the hedge funds i would pay the extra to get shot of them all as long as they take the current board with them.

I heard this from a worker inside Ibrox when Stockbridge was punted there was a pile of bills he hadn't filed and the board of directors where shocked at the mess he had left behind this doesn't dissolve Wallace of all blame but there is a possibility he didn't no all the facts.

If we don't give them our cash then they will have to dig into their own pockets with the wages ratio at 97% of club income they won't hang about for long.

My money is staying in the bank its time to starve this board out i believe Dave King has the best interests of the club at heart but doesn't want to line the shareholders pockets at the expense of investing his money into the football side of the business.
-
I keep reading posts that the board need to show us their long term plans "vision" for the club my question is why are we not asking the same question of McCoist on the football side of the business and also if Ally where to come out tommorow and admit he has got it badly wrong regarding his signings and tactics would you give him another chance? And how do we move forward from here have you any ideas i would like to see something outside the box on this question every now and then a club appears with a new plan and develops a style of football and a team of players that seem to be game changers Ajax, and Dortmund spring to mind thoughts?

Alex Thomson: Rangers into administration on Wednesday-Question....
Bigcid replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Good shout re "Traynor" it would be good to see him go up against the clubs PR man as well. -
Its got to be someone high up in HMRC thats the only explanation Police Scotland should be all over this case as shareholders lost serious amounts of cash when Rangers went into administration and whoever leaked these documents stopped financial assistance being given to the club by printing misleading information regarding the tax case.

At this moment in time its my opinion that Ally isn't a great manager but thats not to say he won't become a great manager. First of all there are circumstances outwith Ally's control that will impact on his abilities to build a team "Scouting" without doubt it is a disgrace that a club the size of Rangers does not have a scouting system, chief scout or any scout for that matter and it is an indictment on this board not Ally that we have been left with this scenario. There will be fans that believe Ally or the backroom team should be out traveling the globe to find the next big talent to pull on that blue shirt and at the same time wave his magic wand and have a Barcelona freeflowing style Rangers team out on the park every week the thing is we are Rangers we have always been Rangers we are not Barcelona and just how is Ally to scout and put together an attractive free flowing football team with the short sited measures that were put in place by this board?. Secondly on Ally's wages when Ally first took on the roll of Rangers assistant coach he had a very lucrative contract with a television company now we all know Ally is a "Bluenose" but do we really believe or expect a club legend or any high profile Rangers supporter to now work for the club for nothing or take a lesser wage for a job that certainly is a lot more time consuming " and without the rewards" than being a television pundit? lets think about this for a minute in Ally's roll as a football pundit he would probably have been in Brazil this summer in a 5 star hotel all expences paid and picking up a huge wage at the end of his 4 weeks in the sun. I wonder what the club has in store for Ally this pre season maybe a trip along the road to saltcoats considering the cost cutting measures being muted i doubt it will be a trip to Brazil all expences paid. I remember the day when an attack on a Rangers legend was an attack on us all it just wasn't an attack from within and the next time a lowlife sticks the boot in to the club try and remember we are the people the cry was no surrender.

Pretty much sums up what everyone is thinking, the last paragraph reads a little poorly "There are many things going on off the field that Rangers fans should be worried about, but there is also some stuff on the park , and it needs changed quickly. the part that reads there is also some stuff sounds a little unprofessional just my opinion.

Andy Mitchell contract terminated "by mutual consent"
Bigcid replied to SteveC's topic in Rangers Chat
Sad to see him go to be honest thought he looked a good player good luck and hope you have a successful career. -
He is a f--king c--t of a man he should be jailed for racism against the English
-
Have a great Xmas and new year everyone its another year down and we are closer to being Scotlands Champions once again.
-
Maybe Ally had a grand plan take all the wages they will give him enabling him to buy as many shares as he can get become the majority share holder and send Stockbridge packing lol.
-
We have some good young players coming through but most of them aren't ready to play every week remember even the youth department was thrown together last minute.

Tragic he might not be a legend but he is one of us, Keep your chin up Fernando and keep fighting
-
This is where the Easdales are stuck between a rock and a hard place they are trying to protect Charles Greens money man on the board they do not want the full facts being made public to the supporters, The club better advertise the position properly for a new Financial Director or we are back to square .

What is top price for the shares pete? did the shares not drop to 39 pence per share and can you put a price on the fans owning the club i know its a big ask paying £700 pounds for a season ticket but in reality you would still only be paying £350 for your season ticket and investing £350 pounds in your club.
-
A couple of nights ago i was sitting with a friend and commented that season ticket prices had been frozen for two years and next year season ticket prices would inevitably go up in price, When i purchased my season tickets last year i paid £358 per ticket for my seats in the Govan front and i purchased two tickets costing me £716, Now here is where my idea comes in and before i get kicked from pillar to post i know that what i am suggesting will be a lot to ask of most fans but i am leaving my idea open to suggestions. I read somewhere that to gain a majority shareholding of Rangers thus gaining control of the club someone would need to purchase shares to the value of £13 or £14 million pounds, My idea is this next year if i buy the same season tickets i am going to pay upwards of £400 pounds per ticket per seat, Now say i pay £700 pound per ticket per seat this would generate income of just under £26 million pounds based on the current 37000 season ticket holders. £26 million pounds now look at that figure £26 million pounds what could the supporters do with £26 millon pounds well £14 million pounds buys you a controling interest in the football club leaving £12 million pounds in the bank before sponsorship merchandise and other revenue streams which i know little about. There are lots of issues around this idea, Like who would control the shares, Who would make up the board, how would the board be elected etc etc etc i would like input from others on these subjects but i would also like to remind people that supporters already own 12% of the shares meaning if these shareholders would proxy their shares and back this idea we would only need another 39% of shares to gain majority control of the club meaning it wouldn't cost £14 million for the majority shareholding leaving more money in the bank to go towards running the club for the season. Also it would be an idea to talk to influential Rangers supporters in the business world to gain knowledge in how to go about setting this up and looking for investment and we could also approach ex players that contributed to the save the Rangers fund and would hopefully be willing to contribute again towards a fan ownership model. Pie in the sky maybe but its an idea!

What would happen to shares if the club go back into administration? Laxey will need to be very careful or there will be no return on their investment maybe the fans demo at the weekend has scared them into a change of heart well done all involved.

SOS-In reply to Wllhelm, who I believe is a co founder of VB
Bigcid replied to Steve1872's topic in Rangers Chat
Banned from RM i was sick of being called a tim and getting the shifty eyes every time i posted that i didn't trust Charles Green turns out i was right about the -
I think the biggest issue for both camps is definitely Stockbridge if the current board and Charles Green have been up to any financial whataboutery and Stockbridge is replaced by a credible Financial Director they will be left wide open to an investigation, I think Somers has probably been put in place by a desperate board trying to keep the truth from being exposed to the supporters.

How much money has been pocketed by so called board members since Craig Whytes takeover it is an astonishing ammount of money we are talking about close on £100 million pounds has went through the club and what have Rangers football club got for it, well come April we have £1 million pounds left, Now i ask you another question what has Craig Whyte got for it, What has Craig Mather got for it, What has Imran Ahmed got for it, What has Charles Green got for it, What has Brian Stockbridge got for it, What have the Easdales got for it? What will Jack Irvine get for it? Back this board at the clubs Expense as you will need to look yourself in the mirror every morning.
