Bears 0 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Worldwide brand, recognised as an Elite UEFA team with an Elite Stadium, recent worldwide exposure from the Administration process, Old Firm games - shown worldwide. I don't think they'd have to look very far to see Rangers. Wrong. There's a guy from Spore that works in Glasgow gave them a heads up. Rangers are not well known out here 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest east enclosure bear Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Kenedy to my knowledge was looking to get on board with the knights....Whyte is still the elephant in the room,until the legalities of his ownership are decided,he is pretty much holding our club to ransom and lets face it ,Duff and Phelps have obviously been in cahoots with Whyte since day 1 of this administration!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't believe for a second that we'd be the first club this person, consortium, whatever they are, have looked at taking over. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BrickHands Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Buyer interest is related to brand of club. They believe this is a bargain purchase to buy into one of the world's most iconic clubs. That's the ticket there. My only concern is that the point above would suggest they want to make themselves money as part of their long term project? Is there really money to be made from owning Rangers? The reason I was so impressed with BK, was that he has made it clear in the past that he isn't in sport to make money. He wanted to make Rangers self-sufficient as well as maintaining the level of success we have had over the past 140 years. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, no matter who the new owner, if the club can be re-structured to be running on a self-sufficient basis, then there will obviously be years where a substantial profit is made over and above the normal 'break even' business plan. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never understood this notion of a Rangers owner not wanting to make money 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMazza 0 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Thanks for this frankie! Some respite from the bad press. Can I now tell the Muppet on Twitter who thinks only true fans support only the BK's to sod off? And yay for HTC cause this forum didn't work on iPhone 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
