Tannochsidebear 2,320 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 the only way this won't make a difference is if everyone doesn't go. much like the season ticket trust plan it only failed because of the fans. the notion the board would ignore 40thousand united customers is spurious. Sorry but I dont agree with that at all. Firstly the ST plan failed because King didn't back up the initial fanfare with either a detailed plan (to get fans onboard) or action (buying a token 3% shareholding for starters). He left it to a few people (fans) in Glasgow to get it all sorted and F*d off back to SA. Those close to it all were pretty pissed off at his attitude throughout it. Secondly I think that we could have 100,000 at this march tomorrow and it would not cause even a second of worry to the current real powermen at the club. They know nothing can happen to them without some buying shares, and the only viable opposition to them is insistent that he isn't for buying the existing shares. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board can easily grant what fans are asking for.” Really? Just how easy is it? Piss easy.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 And the chances of 4,000 never mind 40,000 are exactly? Slim. But my point stands. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 100k turned up shareholders would install a fan suitable board next week. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 King made it clear he wouldn't be buying **** shares. Why does this keep coming up? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,320 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 If 100k turned up shareholders would install a fan suitable board next week. I'm sorry but I dont agree. The current shareholders that hold power do not care a jot about the wishes of the fans. Only an outright boycott of all our matches, merchandise etc by ALL fans would force them to do something, and as we all know Rangers fans dont do anything unanimously! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,320 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 King made it clear he wouldn't be buying **** shares. Why does this keep coming up? It is becoming increasingly clear that this is the wrong tactic, that is why I mention it now. This has also been told to King several times by the fans groups/advisors he has been working with in recent weeks but he remains defiant in his stance. He is of course entitled to hold course, but we as fans are getting more exasberated by the lack of movement from him as time passes. He has really missed a couple of great opportunities to make advances, which is deeply disappointing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 The requisitioners had 30 percent of the shares and got nowhere. 3 percent will do squat. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would certainly also work. Wouldn't need to be everyone either but a large percentage certainly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,299 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 The requisitioners had 30 percent of the shares and got nowhere. 3 percent will do squat. As Ive said to you several times, if DK had purchased a shareholding since the AGM then added to the 30 percents the reqs got the board would have been in trouble. He didnt so the board have no reason to listen to him until such times as he gets a shareholding 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
