54andcounting 0 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Just for the info. If it was found that Whyte did con his way in can anyone do anything about it? Eh,...Naw? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Is it just coincidence, or is it just me.... but the statement from SDM is exactly the same one as AJ's. Did SDM plagiarise Johnston's letter or have they been talking behind closed doors ? Without a doubt and not unreasonably either as Murray asked Johnston to oversee the purchase. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Without a doubt and not unreasonably either as Murray asked Johnston to oversee the purchase. Slight tangent BH, but do you believe this insinuation from the old board that Lloyds forced the deal through? To me it seems plausible that Murray didn't even have an option to listen to AJ and the others on the matter when they said they hadn't seen enough from Whyte's submissions to them to say he was the right man. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an insinuation, it's a fact that LBG forced the deal through, as Johnston said in the interview, it was a "corporate" decision; in other words it was taken out of the hands of the local account manager etc. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,290 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Just out of interest ... can anyone (like Murray & MIH) ask somesuch of another businessman? For all the bluster, I simply don't understand why a new owner of a company should be open about this to an old owner. Same goesfor AJ and his stuff, or the press' constant harassment of Whyte "to tell the truth". IMHO they can demand whatever they like and ask questions to their hearts' content, but Whyte is probably as required to give answers as Lloyds Banking Group would be. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legally perhaps, but morally in respect of an institution like Rangers? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
