Bears 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I'd hope most Bears, ESP the Bears on GN will never believe a thing any Rangers owner or Chairmen etc says until the fat lady sings, till the day you drop off this planet 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Sales were only that high because we manufactured our own strip. He's havering, or showing a lack of understanding of our accounts if he is using that as a target. As for the profit that year it wasn't published but did it really jump from 20% in 2004 to 27% in 2005? Very doubtful. I was going to comment on this. £5.6m profit, yet the £3m pa. from JJB was thought to be a great deal. Someone is pulling legs. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was closer to £4.2m from JJB after accounting for the lump sum. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightly or wrongly I like the guy and am comfortable with him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightly or wrongly I like the guy and am comfortable with him. "Comfortable" is a good word and where I am. I'm sure most of us with a bit of Savvy will have an eye on him though. Obviously there's people on this page far more savvy than me and can dissect what he says into a simplistic form for doughnuts like me to understand 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the day we'd not be happy if he wasn't engaging with fans like this. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the day we'd not be happy if he wasn't engaging with fans like this. I totally agree. He isn't here to wreck us. He's getting on in life and I'd guess he will be loving this. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity for him, he may not have realised that when he initially got involved, but I'd bet my bottom dollar he does now. I think he'll be loving it, the reaction from the fans, and the hate from the shitpigs combined will give him the extra adrenalin boost to take this head on. At times he does get over excited, he has said things that we won't see, but its not going to drag us into the dark ages if it doesn't happen. He has stabilised us, he has got the fans on a high, but there is still a long way to go 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Folk also need to keep in mind that sometimes plans don't always end up as initially thought.... CG's would like to pull in £20m (or whatever)...but may only get £5m - does that then make him a liar??? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
