Does he himself have that kind of money to throw around though? Perhaps those from the Emerald Isle pulling his strings do right enough.

Didn`t he try to buy Green out for a price in about the 30`s ? or maybe Green told him the McColl group had offered him that but he told them to stick it as he was holding out for 70p ? Can`t remember but it was something like that .

The fact they are getting them sold means someone is building a stake or adding to their existing holding . It`s a significant number of shares anyway .

There will be quite a few just getting what they can for them , maybe needing the money at this time of year . Whoever sold 15,000 has taken quite a hit - assuming they didn`t get them for a penny , that is .

Only 53 , terribly sad . RIP

To me it seems a big dilution is coming and those in the know are selling off what they can . Any talk of small shareholders (fans) grouping together to buy at this price (which appears cheap) is folly in my opinion . Normally share price is manipulated upwards before dilution , I can only assume this has proven impossible - no good news imminent , no prospect of jam tomorrow , no real faith in the board . No doubt the AGM voting was putting a bottom on the share price which no longer applies . I ask myself - who would buy even at this price ? .

"pure Micawberism" lol

there`s only one thing that will send this lot packing - cold , hard cash . Well that or a boycott of season tix , which is unthinkable for a support as loyal as ours .

surely Stockbridge would know that if it were the case ? .

re. the £50k leccy bill , someone is lying and I`m sure it can easily be proved who it is - so let`s see the receipt ! .

Wonder what the GB stands for , Great Britain ? . I`m surprised there`s not one with a big "H" on the front . Unbelievable .

 

And once the shareprice is back at 60 or 70p, his investment would have paid itself up.

That is making an assumption that won`t stand up to scrutiny . The only reason to buy shares now is to get a vote or influence the outcome of the vote . With more fundraising a certainty and share dilution on the way , the actual "worth" of a share today is far less than the current price . Personally I wouldn`t touch them even at 10p , terrible but that`s how I see it . I won`t buy until we are being run by people I trust and I know there are many others who agree .

"Yes, it changed when Neil Lennon took over as manager at Celtic and the hitherto marginal extremist element became emboldened enough to display overtly sectarian flags/banners, focusing on the fact that Lennon was Irish and a Catholic and shutting down the ability to legitimately criticise him for fear of being branded an "anti-Irish racist". "

I believe the appointment of martin o`neill was the real game changer . What had always been the most intense football rivalry with religious differences in the background suddenly became full-on sectarianism . From reaching the point when Rangers` players religion was never mentioned ( I couldn`t have told you any of our players religion by 2000 and still couldn`t today ) , within weeks of o`neill`s arrival it was clear that far from playing down religious or ethnic differences , these would now be accentuated and utilised whenever possible to engender a feeling of being discriminated against . The man has a lot to answer for .

Is Alex Thomson a member of opus dei ? I know the late Tommy Burns was and suspect quite a few of the usual suspects are .

Not tims , although there are plenty with enough influence to keep the pot boiling . We have been undone by shameless bare-faced liars , completely amoral and blind with greed . They are opportunistic hyenas of the business world and operate in grey areas , trying to keep one step ahead while filling their pockets . Honour , honesty , decency mean nothing to people like this .

We may in time discover the other players behind the scenes - I maintain that octopus/ticketus are , like SDM , far too capable to be taken in by whyte . If the upshot of all this is that we are demoted again then bring it on ! . A fresh start in the lower leagues where the prize of a spot in the EPL waits in the future , with a board comprising of honest custodians we can trust ; a clean break from this rotten establishment that clearly hates us as much as they fear our prosperity .

To quote the lurgan bigot - "did I read that right?" . He`s comparing us to jimmy saville ? . This b@stards feet should not touch the ground for this , he should resign or be forced out immediately .

£2m is a crapload of kitchen equipment . Wonder how much was actually spent on pots and pans ? .

I think that was a plain-clothed officer trying to get away . I`m replying to Frankie not Ian (pic of tim who shat himself !) . You can see the guy with a light brown jacket lying on the ground after the mhob retreated .

Wonderful to see the vhermin getting a good leathering from the plain-clothed guys , schum even attacking the trams , knee deep in their own filth . Amsterdam is by and large a really nice place to visit and the people and cops first rate , imagine booking a holiday there and these rhats turn up . What a disgrace these plastic paddies are , thank f@ck you never see a union jack or scottish flag among them .

A bit like herding cats at the moment , sorry to say .

I don't know for certain if Jim McColl and his associated board is or will be the right answer for Rangers and the people that will stop us talking about board room politics and focussing on games and team selections, which is, I am sure, where we all want to channel our conversations, but he has a much clearer and cleaner public profile, has strong evidence of historical relevance to the job requirement, does not need to extract cash from the Club, has promised transparency and is a fan.

 

For those reasons I have more confidence in McColl than previous incumbents. Would McColl and his team appoint a fan representative to their Board to better guarantee that transparency, would certainly be a popular move for us and maybe help us all sleep a little easier?

Agree wholeheartedly with all you say but as for fan representation , they would have to be carefully chosen . The last thing needed is another divisive character on the board .

Some people don`t seem to be able to grasp the fact that McColl isn`t getting involved for what he can get out of Rangers . I genuinely believe that both he and King have our club`s best interests at heart . You simply can`t compare them and their motives with these other chancers that have foisted themselves upon us .

It can be extremely frustrating that not everyone can see through them ! .

The only ownership Green&whyteco are interested in is taking ownership of other people`s money .

Extraordinary to think we were nearly 60 years old when that film was taken . The US civil war had only ended 7 years previously , the Great War was still more than 40 years away etc.

Because he fears it may be the truth !

Green was also asked to give an "irrevocable commitment" for the company to have no future connection with Whyte or associates in the future.

I`m touched by your faith in Mr Green`s integrity .
