wabashcannonball 0 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I don't have to you dismissed the answer......."are wealthy businessmen in their own right but even their shareholdings pale into insignificance with the 324,066 Murray holds in his own name and the 37,448,489 he controls through the vehicle of Murray Sports Ltd." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,341 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Yeah, but they are nothing to do with the rights issue that you asked about. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Speaking as a business illiterate, wouldn't having someone bumping their gums (not just RST, anyone) in the media throw a few prspective spanners in the works of a takeover? Or is that accepted practice? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,876 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I am far from an expert but are there not stockmarket protocols that would need to be followed before any offers or asking prices could be disclosed? If so, Edgar's pleas would appear pointless. If not then I agree with the underlying sentiment, I.e. We, the fans, are in the dark and want to know what's happening! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabashcannonball 0 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Yeah, but they are nothing to do with the rights issue that you asked about. Of course they haven't I see Daryll everything for a pound has been at it again. "Effectively Rangers’ shares are actually worth Ã?£1. Any takeover is about buying the debt off the bank and King’s consortium are of the view that if Lloyds are accepting 60p in the pound elsewhere, the same should apply at Rangers. Why give Ã?£31m to Lloyds if there was any chance the club could be taken off Sir David Murray’s hands for around Ã?£20m, with Ã?£11m then “saved” to become working capital for the new owners?" I can think of one person who would have 50 million+ reasons for kicking that into touch. http://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/spl/rangers/cracks-in-the-rangers-boardroom-have-been-exposed-for-all-to-see-this-week-1.998761 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,151 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 That's Celtic fan Michael Grant speaking in that article... Seems like King is on gardening leave at the moment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabashcannonball 0 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Yes Frankie I know it is business guru ? Grant's article, as far as I am aware "get your shares here, only a �£1 for the lot darryl" was the first to fly that particular kite. The thing is and it would be amusing if it were not true, is that some people who should know better actually believe that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wabashcannonball 0 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 What evidence do you have that it isn't true? Common sense. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,151 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'm afraid your common sense has about as much sway as the pen of Darrell King... When you have something tangible to add, I look forward to reading it. In the mean-time I don't think the share issue of 2005 is one that will be affecting the sale of the club all that much. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
