Stimpy 0 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I look forward to them uniting under the banner of "Amalgamated Rangers Shareholding Entities". I'm looking forward to the off spring from Rangers First:D Nothing surer if past actions are anything to go by. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger_syntax 3,765 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 We can't even have one fan ownership vehicle Why can't the respective committees meet for a pint and just decide on one scheme with a clear aim? They all say they want what's best for the club, but everyone thinking up their own plan is only dividing the amount of spare cash that our support may have. There's no need for the confusion that 2 different schemes is creating. Some people will have valid reasons to prefer one scheme over another. If there is a choice then more people will get involved. There is nothing difficult or confusing about this. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger_syntax 3,765 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Socialist concepts in capitalist countries. This will end well........ Something about the purchase of shares makes me doubt the socialist credentials of BuyRangers and Rangers First. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing difficult or confusing about this. Can't agree with that. It's a football club, not choosing what's the best supermarket to shop at. Dividing our forces only makes us weaker, and easier to exploit. If you assume that our support has a finite amount of spare cash, where's the benefit in dividing it? Personally I think it's all a waste of money, and supporters already pay enough to have a major say. We just haven't worked out how to utilise our undoubted power. Buying shares in dribs and drabs is pissing in the wind. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTinMan99 0 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Something about the purchase of shares makes me doubt the socialist credentials of BuyRangers and Rangers First. It was meant to be ironic. Using capitalist means(buying shares), for a socialist goal(fan ownership). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you assume that our support has a finite amount of spare cash, where's the benefit in dividing it? The two schemes will have different structures. There are some fans who are not interested in investing in one, for whatever reason, but would invest in another. If there is a choice then they invest. If there is no choice then they will only invest if the existing scheme suits them. This means that the finite amount of cash that supporters are willing and able to invest increases if there are more schemes to choose from. In a sense the resources are divided but you may well find that both groups disagree on very little when it comes round to voting at A.G.M.s. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
