RANGERRAB 3,299 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 One explanation might be that he's all talk. Hundreds of thousands of shares have been traded daily, e.g. 140,000 today, 250,000+ on Thursday or Friday; he could have amassed 3,000,000 in 2/3 weeks, no danger. But what's his ultimate aim then ? to destabilise or destroy the club ? I just cannot understand what he's up to 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,299 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Looks like they don't need what he's offering.As I said before,they already have what they need. Happy days ahead. perhaps you're like me and beginning to believe we're being bankrolled by someone like Mike Ashley.

forlanssister 3,058 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Since you're sure, I guess we can be sure that you've seen the report, then? To paraphrase the charlatan himself if the report did exonerate him then you, me and "Uncle Tom Cobleigh" would all have copies of it. FWIW I doubt the report contains enough to either exonerate him or condemn him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,058 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 He could join with the requisioners and try to persuade some of the other investors to his cause. Even if he had to pay a premium on the current price to get his stake up to say 10%, he would still have change out of £5M. Little point when the spivs are still claiming to control 51%. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 or he could put that 5 million into the club. Yes he could but if he doesn't buy any shares in the open market, there is no point that I can see in going bleating to the Sun about not having any influence etc. My point was that he could spend a few mil on shares now to get some influence and still have more than enough left over to put directly into the Club via a new share issue. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just cannot understand what he's up to Me neither; because if opinion on here is anything to go by, all he's succeeding in doing at the moment is turning people off. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sitting in SA and giving the Sun a non-story every couple of weeks isn't getting the job done either. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I think he's the biggest puzzler of them all..... He has very powerful friends in the banking and financial industry, so he could potentially be helpful, but his involvement makes me uneasy. We could just view him as another investor out to make some cash for himself, but it's not particularly easy to get your head around why a rich stock market trader from a devout catholic upbringing and Irish descent (family were from Connemara) would actually want to help our Club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
