plgsarmy 111 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Was that not a private issue to existing shareholders only I stand to be corrected as always. You are correct. It was a rights issue. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Was that not a private issue to existing shareholders only I stand to be corrected as always. You are right GA. But the fact remains that there are many thousands of Gers fans who are shareholders and the take-up on the rights issue was very poor. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get the tax case out the way might be worth a shot although I think the trust between the support and Whyte might be beyond repair. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far be it for me to correct plgsarmy and Craig, but you (and they) are wrong. People who were not shareholders were also able to buy the shares and 1,263 of them did so. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,486 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Then, Zappa, there is no reason to not start a fund of such type now. If we lose the tax case it goes towwards that liability. If we win, it becomes a player funding fund. The problem with waiting till the shit hits the fan is that you dont get time from HMRC to make payments - and how many people would pay 3, 4, 500 quid in one lump sum to help out ? I just wish we were more pro-active, but we cant even agree on anything, let alone a fund of such type. I seem to remember VB asking the question about the share issue,the post about the minutes of the meeting with CW,and his response was '' would the fans invest? '',now I don't know if that answer was meaning he would be interested in a share scheme or not. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
