  1. The rights issue has been voted through twice but has not been followed up for some reason. The resolution 11 which King has tried and failed twice to get passed would allow the removal of pre-emption rights meaning that King and co plus external investors can give themselves a huge number of shares at whatever price they want while the other shareholders can do nothing. This plus a large investor from China is where King sees his £20m being paid back. Until then he is treading water and spending the minimum.
  2. His Brancumhall one ? These were too dear for me so I bought an ex council one along the road in Glen Tennet.
  3. I was talking to an old guy who used to have a farm in the area and he said that Dave used to come round his family farm when he was like 10 wearing glasses with a plaster over one lens to correct his lazy eye. He said the wee guy was always asking for free eggs. Said he was a creepy wee fella.
  4. Fucks sake, I just watched this last night after finding the box set of mcdougal's plays in my garage. Remember watching it in 1975 when it was first shown as a play for today. Some classic lines in it and great to see the Glasgow I grew up in.
  5. Sorry to hear this, may his friends and family have strength at this time.
  6. Well the screen shot is from their SPD website. They have been members of the Chairman's Club for years. If you look at companies house they have a sister company which has one Walter Ferguson Smith on the board. Surprised Walter didn't advise them to refuse the work due to the horrendous tacky nature of it.
  7. Its not a secret though, they use the banners to market their website so they're not hiding it.
  8. I wonder if any companies in this line of business have a table in the Chairman's Club and a sister company with a formers Rangers director on the board.
  9. One of the members of the Chairman's club who is involved in the project. The new glass will actually be plastic for health and safety reasons but will act like self tinting sunglasses. The glass will be clear normally but only turn green if the sun is out. Not sure how much they will be selling the original glass for but it would be nice to build one into a house as a window.
  10. The glass is being replaced with solar activated tinting glass, unfortunately it tints a green colour however apparently the original glass will be for sale later in the year.
  11. Looking forward to this game. I remember being 2-nil down at half time in November 1992 and coming back to the draw after big Mark's header. Probably my favourite European memory sorting these cunts out. The fact we were entertaining 2 directors from a prominent French bank at our table in the Thornton made it all the sweeter.
  12. At this point I'm willing to share in your optimism BABN
  13. Feelings of Magic Hat coming back. If it wasn't for Kenny's aging but still great reflexes on Thursday we could have been looking at an embarrassment. Less talk and more action please Pedro.
  14. I just hope the cunts at SD do not ration the stock going to the Megastore to boost their profits by supporters having to go the SD route. We need volume via the Megastore to cover the overheads then £20 per shirt sale is pure profit going to our Club.
  15. Beyond help for reading the financials and listening to King's speech ? SD make a huge margin before the stuff even gets to us and now we're lumbered with the overheads of the shop. We can do well over the next 12 months but MA will do better if you apply simple arithmetic. Fuck sake man I'm delighted that the deal is over in 12 months but once I turned 12 my need to look up to another man as a hero was behind me.
  16. Ashley is going to make a whole lot more over the next 12 months than that we will. He controls the supply chain with huge mark up, the club is burdened with the over heads of the Megastore while he still shares the profit and he only has to give 6p in the £1 for sales via SD. He will make far more than he could have squeezed out of King via litigation. I wouldn't be surprised if he wrote the terms of exit himself and let King take the credit to get everyone buying again. Having said that, its fuckin great that the deal is over in 12 months.
  17. Holy shit, fuckin excellent to be fair.
  18. Chinese investment fund based in Hong Kong has been in talks with a well known international accountancy firm with offices in Glasgow. We are working with them and it came up in conversation last week. Warburton has definitely offered money for 2 or 3 of our players. .
  19. 3.5 million from Warburton for players as yet unidentified. I have a feeling that Chinese money is close on the horizon (having said this on here for the past 2 years) but I have reason to believe it is about to happen.
  20. He lived in the Whitehouse in Kilbarchan when he played for us and I worked nearby in Johnstone. I remember on of my female staff members who was only 17 had a puncture on her way to work one day and Gazza was driving past and stopped and offered her his mobile phone to call her dad. When he realised it was only a puncture he changed her tyre for her. She was starstruck for the rest of the day. He was a supreme talent and a very kind human being who unfortunately ended up with alcohol problems but I hope he has overcome his demons and has many more birthdays.
  21. The man gave great service to Rangers for many years and was then dumped out on his arse. He has a chance to make a few quid for a couple of years before retirement and for that you call him a cunt ? Take a long look in your mirror and you'll see the definition of a true cunt looking back.
  22. It was going to be "Partick Thistle beaters and second best club in Glasgow". Not now though.
  23. Tom English is a cunt. In this article he speaks the truth. If only we had boardroom leaders who did not give him the ammunition to write such article.
  24. The cunts a charlatan that the board thought would make us pay up our season tickets. Hopefully they will be proved wrong.
  25. I agree 100%. I believe last year the board did a deal with Joey Barton while Warburton was in hiding to come in for a few months to help hype his book then piss off. This year we have Pedro for the same reason..... to milk the blue pound. Pedro is a fuckwit who the board think would fool good Rangers supporters into parting with their season ticket money. I don't think so.
