Requisition Of General Meeting - Paul Murray wants in

[forlanssister 3,105]

Just a thought.

 

Someone going to make a bid and wants a couple of board members he can trust to look at the 'books'. They are told only if they replace people who would be on the same side.

 

That can be done without the need to change the board, a message was sent for all to see the tanks are on the lawn.

I like the sound of that, lets hope if they fire it isn't blanks.

Okay. Which companies has he been on the board of when they suffered an insolvency event?

Not at the time but within the last three years prior to an insolvency event or something.

 

It was mentioned a fair bit when TBK were trying to buy us.

mention of the end game, no chance, this is like a book where you think you've reached the end and then you turn over and there is another surprise chapter, and it continues onwards and onwards and your never actually reach the end.

 

it means we're constantly in the news for the wrong reasons, the fans suffer, we get continual bad press, because they love turning the screw, wish they'd all feck off and just leave things as they are.

 

don't believe Green is around for 100% positive reasons, but whatever you think of him he is rocking the boat.

It's a statutory investigation, he wouldn't have heavy hitters proposing him if there was the merest hint of doubt.

Former Ibrox director Paul Murray, who fronted a group called the Blue Knights, attempted to buy the club in the spring of 2012. Along with businessman Brian Kennedy, they submitted a conditional takeover offer for the Glasgow side before pulling out in May 2012.

 

Blin is the former executive chairman of accountancy firm PricewaterhouseCoopers and it is understood the dissenting group have lined him up to perform a forensic investigation of Rangers' finances if successful in their bid to install him to the board.

 

It is understood the action has come from a group of shareholders, including both Rangers fans and professional investors, who have "concerns over the corporate governance" at Ibrox and feel they have the best interests of the club at heart.

 

One shareholder, a London-based professional investor who is a season-ticket holder at Ibrox, told Press Association Sport: "I want to know the costs inside Ibrox and know that they are under control. I would like to know exactly how much money Craig Mather is being paid, in fact I would like to know all the figures at Ibrox.

 

"The fans and investors deserve to know. The fans are the lifeblood of the club and they have been kept in the dark for too long. How much is Charles Green getting paid? And, if he's here to represent the shareholders, then what are the stockbrokers doing and are they on a retainer?"

A bit of C&P from FF ... info on Blin

 

(trialist poster)

My pal works for PWC, last year when McCoist and Smith were trying to get McColl to buy Rangers, it was Blin that McColl approached to do the financials.

 

This to me would suggest that McColl is making his move now, here is hoping.

 

Question

Why does McColl have to make a move covertly? It would come out very early he's the man behind the bid. Blokes like him dont piss about. If he wants to buy the club he'll get the likes of Green, Easdale and Mather round a table and do a deal.

 

Trialist poster replies

Pure and simply because Jim McColl runs a huge hedge fund which deals with hundreds of millions if not billions of influential investors from all of the worlds money.

 

He has to be very, very careful when seen to be getting involved with something like this. Hence the reason, the last time he only came in at the last minute, all along he had been happy to put the money up but was not keen for his name to be drawn into it. Smith would not allow this though as he didn't want the fans fearing that another Whyte-esque character was working behind the scenes, so only at the last minute did McColl decide to put his name to the bid but it was all too late.

 

Frank Blin is a jewish man and a lifelong Rangers fan he ia about as credible a Scottish business person as you are likely to get. He would most certainly not put his name to anything underhand this can only be good news.

frank blin really looks like the kind of quality we need on our board.
