Dragonfly Trumpeter 50 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Remind me again which one of you two spunked a quarter of a million on Rangers? A measley quarter mill on the club you live is chicken feed, nout to crow about. The PM haters waste that on a weeks shopping. Some posters on here have spent way more than PM has on Rangers, we were told. Some others may be up there as well, once you add up the STs and merchandise they have bought over the years:roflmao: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimpy 0 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Not to mention what he's spent over the past 19 months trying to get the club into safe hands only to be abused and called everything under the sun by some of our fans. Who'd try? Thankless unless you loaned the club money and got all monies back plus interest, shares and bonuses. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54andcounting 0 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) THE former Ibrox director, who is a leading player in the shareholder uprising against the current regime, wants to know the identities of the money men behind investor groups in an exclusive interview with Keith Jackson. "These people could be about to have a huge say in determining the very future of the club but no-one knows who they are. The fans deserve to be told the truth." PAUL MURRAY last night called for clarity from the Rangers board over the identity of its foreign backers. Murray, who has teamed up with entrepreneur Jim McColl to lead a shareholder uprising against the Ibrox regime, has urged the club to make public the identity of the money men behind investor groups Blue Pitch Holdings and Margarita Holdings. Murray’s move comes after the club’s lawyers asked him to hand over details of all those who are supporting his bid for control – and following an announcement on Friday that Blue Pitch and Margarita will team up to back the current board at next month’s agm. With around 15 per cent of the club’s shares between them, Murray believes Blue Pitch – who funded Charles Green’s £5.5m takeover – and Margarita could have enough votes to save chief executive Craig Mather and financial director Brian Stockbridge from the chop. And he insists the Rangers fans must not be kept in the dark about their identities. Murray said: “We spent all of last week identifying who we all are under the section 793 process, which is a legal mechanism for the club to find out who owns shares. “I’d like to ask: Has the club done the same with Blue Pitch Holdings and Margarita Holdings? Are they happy with the answers they got? And will they now make public the name of those involved in order that the Rangers supporters are afforded transparency? “These people could be about to have a huge say in determining the very future of the club but no-one knows who they are. The fans deserve to be told the truth. “We have fully complied with the club’s requests. Every requisitionist has given them authentication of the shares they hold and who the beneficial owners of the shares are. “So surely the same rules should be applied all round to all parties.” The club’s agm is expected to be held next month, with all directors facing a shareholder vote to determine if they are re-elected. Murray and McColl claim to have mustered the support of just less than 30 per cent of the shareholders after being urged to lead a revolt by a group of institutional investors, who are demanding changes. A spokesman for the Rangers Supporters Trust said: “One of the many promises Charles Green made was honesty and transparency of the ownership of our club. “Most Rangers fans would agree we don’t have that as long as we have shareholders hiding behind these nominee venture capitalist accounts.” Last night a spokesperson for Rangers said: “What was asked of the requisitioners was in line with protocol.” http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/paul-murray-exclusive-tell-who-2298764?

Frankie 8,157 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I certainly wouldn't mind knowing a bit more detail ahead of the AGM. When are the accounts due? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilledbear 16 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Why would anyone mock someone who asks for more details about the ownership of Rangers. I thought all Rangers Supporters would want this. I just don't get it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) Perhaps the requisitionsists should start the ball rolling by publishing the beneficial owners of all their shares, I am sure that the Daily Record would be happy to print the list; then they might be able to shame the Board into a position where they do the same themselves and prevail upon their backers to do likewise.
