Frankie 8,151 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The newspapers will be used by all and sundry to spin the situation. Rab is right to reserve judgement in that sense though I'd suggest he's wrong about King's ability to invest. Let's play the ball gentlemen, not the man.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,251 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) I was just about writing that another 24 to 48 hours of wait is due, because King and Co. or someone else will give us another perspective on that story. We can argue all day long - again. At the end of the day, someone has at some point lay the money/cards on the table and make something happen. And like it or hate it, thus far only those who a generally disliked by vast sections of the support have done so. NB: It would be interesting to know how that cash-injection deal will/would be done, of course.

Frankie 8,151 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 From the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29532934 Meanwhile, South Africa-based businessman Dave King has told BBC Scotland that a newspaper report suggesting that he and other former Rangers directors are involved in a takeover is untrue. He also recently told the BBC that he had not been involved in discussions with anyone on the board. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangersitis 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 From the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29532934 From my reading of it, the DR didn’t mention a takeover. Spin, spin, spin. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 From the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29532934 yes but is p murray. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC 150 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 From my reading of it, the DR didn’t mention a takeover. Spin, spin, spin. Yes but King goes on to say he has not been involved in any discussions with the board. That directly contradicts the article - no spin or diversion there. Could just be a lie, however. if you lie repeatedly under oath in court you are not going to baulk at lying to a Retard "journalist" or to lie to a BBC "spokesthingy". Ashley wanting to remove Wallace suggests there may have been a discussion....but then again, he's plenty of reason to want to do that anyway. AGM time - time for the "ol' switcheroo to confound the plebs".... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangersitis 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Yes but King goes on to say he has not been involved in any discussions with the board. THat directly contradicts the article - no spin or diversion there See gunny's point above. It's either all bullshit with no substance, or else it's all bullshit being played out in public in a battle of egos. Either way, it is an unedifying spectacle for each of us to witness. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,151 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Semantics aside, the Record article was presented as a 'bailout deal'. In effect, what King is offering is a takeover. Hiding from that is doing none of us any favours. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
