ronniemca 479 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 sdm said that if he had accepted an offer 2 years ago in a london hotel murray park would now be a housing estate ,so dont think any investor might not have this in mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del 667 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Why don't we sell you? Give the profits to Lloyds, that'll easily wipe out the debt. That whole £4.50 will contribute to the cause. Come on mate im sure his mum would stump up a tenner at least Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baileyseye 0 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 This is a ridiculous idea if not a wind up. Like the whole world is in recession and will recover, so will Rangers without resorting to these measures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey_RFC 122 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 The OP is a true inspiration to us all. His business acumen is truly out of this world. This is precisely what we need to do. Get Bain on the phone right now! Pillock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff crap in the head 120 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Yes! Thats it, we've got the solution. Phone Bain "Selling it" and renting it back could be a solution however. Get £10m for it then secure a long term 25yr lease for say 750k per year. It was quite a common property transaction before the crash. Does that not tell you something? The company i worked for did that, and as soon as money was tight they went into administration because of it. It's an idiots way of trying to look good on a balance sheet before buggering off and leaving the mess for someone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

deekster 2 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Aye I've got a picture in my head just now, Walter Smith leading the players on a jog down the Copland Rd The upside of this scenario would be that the Club would be engaging with the supporters again as opposed to being locked away from our adoring gaze behind the large fences of Auchenhowie. We could arrange subway days out, timing it so as to meet up with Walter and the boys and cheer them as they jogged past various stations (Ibrox, Cessnock, Kinning Park and so on). We are the people, so let's get them back amongst 'The People'. Just thinking about that, do we do what alot of EPL teams do and have like a training day at ibrox to let the fans in and have a look at the team ? i think that would be a great success no chance then we.d get to see what half the lazy bastards actually do for there wages.

gandhisflip 5 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Obviously we're talking hypothetical scenarios but if we had to raise £10m in the summer you'd rather we sold Davis, Boogie and McGregor than organised a lease back of Murray Park? We'd still "own" the asset FFS, it's just effectively taking a mortgage on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd still "own" the asset FFS, it's just effectively taking a mortgage on it. How would we own it if we sold it and rented it back? One of those mortgages where you pay 25 years then have nothing to show for it? It's a shite plan for the long term, long term planning being something Rangers need to focus on. Anyway the situation you're describing in all likelihood just wont happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSifter 181 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Apparantly we dont even own Murray Park, its being rented out. Nonsense. It's been reiterated time and again that we do. I believe a while ago it was proven that the title deed to the land is in the name of RFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
