ritchieshearercaldow 22,137 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I wondered what Walter was making of all this, it crossed my mind to start a thread on the subject.Walter leading the final charge for the salvation of the club Keep Rangers in the hands of Rangers men Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redmond7 979 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Agree..............depends on what Green wants to walk away, posted a tweet from lamont saying Green said come and talk to us if you want the club , not D&P or BDO so looks like he is battening down the hatches.He obviously will, and probably quite rightly, want to at least recoup whatever's been spent but he doesn't look or sound like a stupid man and you'd have to think, once the groundswell of opinion rises he will see that Walter has 100% of the fans support and he has none. If Walter hadn't come out and said this, no doubt most of us would have at least tentatively supported Green but with Walter in the mix it's no contest surely.

1873bear 192 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Let's use what's left in the RFFF to pay off Green if it means Walter can get a clear path.Be the best money spent from it yet.Agree because he wont walk away at this stage after spending all the time energy & money trying to save our club.....Pay him off & thank him for his efforts.

Jelavic191 4,434 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Green stands no chance in relation to fans backing now.The smart thing to end up with any sort of return would be to let Walter & co make him an offer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmiston Drive 3,846 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Will be more like ....what will Green take to walk away. The fact that the statement said they have asked him to step aside.....doesn't look as if they have offered him any money and it looks like traynors story was placed to cause a stir.

GMac 1,405 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 It cant be a bidding war.Green has an agreed price.If he wants to buy the club for £5.5m then no-one can stop him.He can however, sell straight over to Walter for say £6m, making a tidy £500k profit.Buys Rangers assets today for £5.5 million, sells tomorrow for £6million. Good day at the office for him. With all the uncertainties ahead, I would take it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Negri's Beard 1,423 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Frankly, if Green isn't willing to step aside, we have to do absolutely everything to make sure he steps aside. I've got nothing particularly against Green but Walter wins, hands down. There is no single person in the world i'd place my trust in regarding Rangers more than Sir Walter Corky_Laputa 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davie2909 21 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Totally lost here but what are they looking to do? Are they wanting to go down the Newco route or are they talking about paying off all the debts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxi 11,484 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Just got in and it's the fist I've seen of it. Great news! They would have to pay Green back everything he's already spent though preparing his bid with legal fees etc though. Jim McColl and Douglas Parks sounds promising, looks good.Still not sure whether Green is just going to walk away though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian 4,281 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Whilst we haven't seen any details on "Walters" bid, surely we should be asking some questions.I have no wish to be negative, but a lot of the folk urging caution over the past while are now turning cartwheels and nobody is doing what they insisted we do, and ask questions.Who is in this consortium and what are their plans.Is it just TBK, with Walter as frontman as they cynically knew that would win votes ?What are the plans ?How much are they putting in of their own money and how is their bid funded ?Will they be having a share issue like Green was slated for ?What will they use to provide working capital ?We mustn't let Walters involvement, albeit welcome, to cloud the issues.No doubt I'll get pilloried for this, but we've been diddled before and must be eternally vigilant.
