The point being, the bank or any other bank would soon realise they would lose more than 30 million, and maybe there positions, directores etc if they try and strip us - we could do more harm to them, but if people like you want to let sh#te like that trash the club you love, just you keep banking with them, Theres a good boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only person that has trashed this club in the past week is smith. It's not as simple as that. It has been reported many times now that the banks, despite being bailed out by the taxpayer are playing hardball with many organizations in an attempt to recoup losses caused by their incompetence. This is not necessarily in the interests of the economy, but as we know, that is not necessarily of interest to the banks. If the reports are true, HBOS has bullied the board into a business plan which would clearly damage the club for years to come, when a more sympathetic stance might allow a profitable future. I see nothing to suggest that Rangers will be unable to meet interest payments on the debt anytime soon so this seems a pretty shortsighted approach. Only a takeover is likely to prevent this. I think it is perfectly reasonable under those circumstances for Rangers supporters to vote with their feet and take their business elsewhere. HBOS won't go bust as has been suggested because, as has been made clear, they are too big to fail. Hopefully they get broken up into smaller banks and the bonus culture gets stomped on though.

MikeBlue 136 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 ,,,,,and one other point - apparently Donald Muir is a "lifelong" Rangers supporter. Well if he turns out just to be an asset stripper from a bank he'll have to find someone else to support - outside Scotland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
