forlanssister 3,066 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 As I've said before, I fear that Green will find that there's a massive difference between fans getting behind the club and buying season tickets and investing in shares after seeing their previous investments turn worthless. Buying a season ticket and being confident that I will be able to attend the games this season is totally different from buying shares. I'm reasonably happy with Green and the way he is running the club and I have a fair amount of trust in him, but has he done enough that I'm going to pay over, say, £1,000 in shares? I just don't see what anyone could do to get rid of the unease that has been created Murray and Whyte that makes me think that I may not invest. I will study what is being issued and would like to feel that I will invest but it may be a case of once bitten.... and there will probably be many feeling the same as me. I think it's a bit premature to float so quickly, it gives an impression of a cut and run. A full years accounts would have been nice so we could get a bigger picture of what's actually being sold. This will be purely an investment of the heart and not the head, I'm minded to let the float pass and wait and buy in the market but if the minimum is set low enough I may just succumb to temptations of heart. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I used to have 101 shares for sentimental reasons. if green wants more than this from me I will need full disclosure and parity with other investors I imagine. elsewise i will probably just buy a few shares again. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,200 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 One wonders how much the scheme is underwritten for as I don't expect the take up to be all that high. I wonder how the Rangers fan share purchase project factors into this as well? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

amms 0 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Do we feel this will be aimed at the average supporter looking to buy some 'sentimental' shares or at the corporate investor looking for profit, or indeed both? Does anyone know how many separate shareholders Rangers had before? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
