Steve1872 4 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Rangers Listed On London Stock Exchange Written by Rangers Football Club Rangers Chief Executive Charles Green, Manager Ally McCoist and Finance Director Brian Stockbridge tonight received a commemorative plaque from the London Stock Exchange on the successful listing of Rangers shares. Trading in the shares starts tomorrow when the market opens at 8am. A total of £22.2 million has been raised from professional and institutional investors and supporters which will be used to take the club forward, strengthen the squad when appropriate and improve facilities. Charles Green commented: â??I am delighted to receive this plaque from the London Stock Exchange commemorating the day that Rangers becomes a public company and I look forward to the Club growing in value as we get back to our rightful place at the top of Scottish football. â??This is an exciting time for everyone associated with this 140 year old institution but we are just at the start of the journey. â??We are rebuilding and Rangers will rise again and we will do so with the help of our fans and the institutional investors who are on board. â??This process has generated over £22 million which has exceeded the figure of £20m that we set out to raise when we announced our intention to float the company on 11th October 2012. â??I would like to thank our supporters who stepped up to the plate when asked to buy season tickets earlier in the season and have done so again at a time of year when money is extremely tight.â? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 if we assume all the money is going into rangers and i think we should. then green has raised a lot of money for the club. 30-35 million. we need to spend it well now to build revenue and get back where we belong. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
