  1. How can someone who has got just about every big call wrong in recent years have the gaul to be sarcastic when talking about interpretating a "complex predicament" ?
  2. Would those be conducted by the Spin-doctor who Sandy doesn't seem to know he has ?
  3. The Judas Blogger tends to just reguritate the Toxic brief on these type of matters. I think he's worse than old 3names given he shits on his own doorstep or in other circumstances, should be sectioned. Why would Ashely buy more shares in Rangers when he has what he wants tied up ? If he was to help to keep the lights on and the onerous contracts producing, it's always more likely to be a secured loan IMO.
  4. McMurdo the Judas Blogger 11 September 2013 "With the announcement that he is putting Newcastle United up for sale, the chips are falling into place for a Mike Ashley takeover at Rangers. As predicted by this blogger, Ashley could very well be the new man in charge at the troubled club" 12 September 2013 "Mike Ashley may not be riding to Rangers rescue after all. I am led to believe that Ashley has been scared off by the fifth columnists in the club support and doesn’t relish taking on disgruntled fan groups again."
  5. I said Auchenhowie (personally don't like using the 'D.Murray' reference) would make sense to be 'next-up'.
  6. I wouldn't say you were wrong but then neither would I fully agree with you. In recent years, it's been proved to be dangerous to assume too much and go the whole hog, laying out precisely where all the pieces in any sub-jigsaw lay, never mind the macro. The one certainty about the Asian visit is that what the club told us via a spokesman, wasn't wholly true. Auchenhowie is certainly the asset that would make sense as to be the 'next-up'. Rizvi probably means 'important/significant strategical step' within ongoing process Rizvi 'presented publicly' may have been designed.
  7. I think the chance of Rizvi not being at least in part involved in one of the mysterious investing blocks back in the summer of 2012 is as little as Val McDermid modelling the latest line in M&S bikini's for 2015.
  8. I'd like to have had a tape recorder at the table of those two honest and transparent businessmen, Easdale and Rizvi the other day. To get an idea of our youth development operation, of course.
  9. James, Sandy or Family ? The Easdale shareholding usually comes with a degree of mystery. Let's see if we have it confirmed clearly later today.
  10. Hence those with the penny shares may tend to be those closer to the root of the plan. Rizvi most probably being one. Other important 'players' may have sniffed around and subsequently been offered different types of route to making loads of dosh.
  11. My gut feeling agrees with you but given who is involved I wouldn't hang my hat on it. It may be by degrees, rather than black or white. The first involvement needed a correction. ie. Paying 1 pound a share, requiring Green to 'give them back' 30p in the pound.
  12. Aslong as they have executive control, they will do as they please and stay a step ahead so as to lay the 'financial mines' / and/or contingencies. This was why at the last AGM, efforts to take executive control away was so important. They were hampered for a number of reasons, mostly self-inflicted wounds. These came from a failure to get the message accross to the support who were needed, mistakes and disconnects with the requisitioner camp, a particularly nasty campaign coming the other way (much of went unseen) and the willingness of some supporters/group to side with what I'd regard as the 'enemy' (ie. sp.ivs).
  13. I mentioned this on another thread that has been closed but now think the 'Wee Daft Fact' list is it's perfect home. On the day of our game against Raith Rovers over in the Kingdom of Fife, it is fitting to remind all that this is where one of our greatest ever players came from. To be precise, the Hill of Beath but that is hardly a daft wee fact. What is though, is that the father of the rounded crime writer and sponser of the Kirkcaldy club we play this evening, Val McDermid, was in fact the Raith Rovers scout who recognized and brought the talents of Baxter into the senior game. After his time at Rovers, Slim Jim would sign the dotted line over at Ibrox Stadium and go onto great things that could have been greater still.
  14. You wonder what Laxey make of all of this................ Or do they stay quiet and get Ibrox ? It may not be wise to trust the Rizvi/Green/Easdale/Irvine axis.
  15. Whether it be the internet or the street there is an unwritten rule when you join or enroll in X, Y or Z and you are approaching that line. I'd take a step or two back if you want to continue in a constructive way. Your style is a little different to the norm on here but there is nothing wrong in that, however 'the line' applies to all.
  16. The VB move in mysterious ways............. Perhaps the 5 Part Exclusive is lost like the actual 5 Way Agreement. Certainly never understood the reason to drip the 'info' over a period of XX months.
  17. Todays Rangers and Clarity........=............oil and water
  18. If there still happened to be some connection perhaps we could pay Turnbull Hutton to come over, wrap the Easdales up in lino and send them over for a 'break' on the Bass Rock.
  19. Bet you didn't know that Val McDermids Dad scouted Jim Baxter and took him to Raith Rovers, his first senior club.
  20. ITIS won't miss it, he has a date with Val McDermid, he's going to bring her back into the fold.
  21. Some posted of the danger of this over 18 months ago when you were still 'in love' with Charles Green.
  22. In the absence of someone with around 50M to throw at it, I can't see any route that isn't dangerous or with definite destination, although perhaps continuing to fund sp.ivs/onerous contracts has got a more predictable end. Some say that to break some of the onerous contracts, it's liquidation that would be needed. And yes, that is another sea of hell where huge risks would ly. Bearing in mind what I said about throwing (30M-)50M around, I would also say that in this current 'game' it is unrealistic to expect X, Y or Z to do anything else other than continue whatever strategy they may be embarked upon in an attempt to reach an objective without spending so much money, before they were to even walk through the doors. The pursuit of realistic and viable alternatives is something that has became progressively more difficult as the years have passed and now the only certainty in the short term is uncertainty........... and that is where we are because of many different reasons. It's sad but I think we are damaged beyond a point where you can expect to return to where we once were in the forseeable. With that in mind you have to tailor expectations but I wouldn't be prepared to do that and continue to fund the sp.ivs onerous contracts/creaming off.
