GovanAllan 0 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Why do you say that, GA? Lack of funds between them? One of the factors BD I don't think they have 10mill+ each to just give to Rangers. I've not spoken to Saty or Bobby Singh for a wee while but neither of them ever gave me the impression they would be up for buying into Rangers, helping Rangers in anyway they can yes, out with actual investment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Only know of Smilie for that radio windup. Does he actually have that much money? (In terms of being part of a consortium funding a football club). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefanovitch 0 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I would be concerned that if P Murray is looking for 6 or more investors then none of them have "real" funds. While financial stability is crucial a decent sum for a summer transfer kitty would be nice with continued investment year on year without needing European football to guarantee it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don't think they do either. Last I heard Smillie was prepared to put in about £1-2M but I doubt DP has that amount of spare cash (but he is in cahoots with King). As you suggest it would take 3-4 in the £10M+ category, hard to see where they are coming from. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'd agree about Satty. I don't think he'd be interested in putting much money into the club. Also like you and BH, I can't see Smillie or Park being able to invest anything more than 2-3m each. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also like you and BH, I can't see Smillie or Park being able to invest anything more than 2-3m each. Which begs the question where is the money coming from. Is there someone we've not heard of yet, I don't believe King is footing the whole bill himself. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I get the feeling that they're still trying to smoke out a heavyweight investor or two otherwise they wouldn't have been making the whole thing so public. In fact Paul Murray was on Sportsound not long after we went into administration calling for anyone interested in helping the club to step forward and get involved. At that point he clearly didn't have a viable consortium organised and I seriously doubt if he does now either. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I thought jim McColl was mentioned. Is Tom Hunter not another possibility. Duncan Bannatyne ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
