the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I still say not getting a licence could be the making of us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 the problem will be if they don't give us a licence but try to put us back in the SPL next season. we must look to move south and if that's not possible we must not return to the spl just to prop them up. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim1955 12 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 We certainly should not be the first to blink. Worth commenting that the media twitterati have been very quiet today, haven't seen any reports from them on anything. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 ... in what way? well I mooted a few possibilities the other day. it would be better to say that it could if we want be the making of us. 50k bears with no sky to pay, no season books, no away days or trips abroad. if we all put 500 quid in a fund we would have 25 million to spend. buy the club. but the stadium and add 20k seats while its not being used. go south and start in conference north if needs be. heck do all 3 and in a decade a rangers owned by its fans is packing 70k fans into ibrox for its opening day epl game v man utd. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth commenting that the media twitterati have been very quiet today, haven't seen any reports from them on anything. Just thinking that myself.

Except, even with 25mill in the bank, would that really be enough to keep the club running for a year without any tangible revenue from tickets etc? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,290 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Methinks if we do not get a transfer of our old membership, which is what we are trying to do now, we'd have to apply for a brand new license. That would be food and drink for all the "club dies with oldco and license" heralds. A new license would also only be issued to a company with a 3-year trading background, which Sevco Scotland does not have. Whether Kennedy et al has one remains to be seen. Just saying. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 we would be starting from scratch the following year. total scratch almost certainly. ...and how much would it cost to completely start again from scratch??? ...I very much doubt that 50k fans would hand over £500 and nothing in return!!! ...where's the money gonna come from??? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
