gandhisflip 5 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 My Manifesto:- Car Parks outside Ibrox taken over by massive marquee's on match day (like Oktoberfest in Germany) that can hold 5000 fans. Giant screens showing old games/goal/legends. Live music and as many Tennets products as you can drink. Rangers making £1.50 per pint - all profits to expanding youth setup. Catering - Pakora, Pizzas, Wraps, Good Quality Burgers and Hotdogs all on menu. Additional staff on kiosks, better quality drinks and snacks. Will charge 25% more but all profits to recruiting extra worldwide scouts. (Not the dibdibdib kind). MD Entertainment - no more Andy Cameron. Loud, upbeat popular hits. Occasional live performance by Gers frinedly bands. Classic games shown on screens before match. New Players - No players over 25 purchased (only Bosmans allowed) as they have no sell on value. Monthly "town hall" meetings with the fans to discuss ideas and share information. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cogsy69uk 62 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 here we go, another takeover thread which will no doubt be hijacked by the usual suspects who will claim to know what is going on and try and wind up fellow bears or indeed anyone who will listen I happen to have a credible story ive been holding back on posting but I guess nows as good a time as any..... A source very close to me has revealed that dukestreetsoup is seriously considering putting in a very lucrative bid to own Rangers right out. However, the result of this evening euromillions draw will decide whether the bid is pushed through. 3000 active members all forming a syndicate on the Euromillions isn't a bad idea. All winnings to the Buy Rangers Fund. £2 each every week - first jackpot win and we're there. Bagsy vice chairman. Fuck being the guy having to buy all of those tickets! :pierre: Fuck being behind him in the queue :pierre: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rfc_no1fan 13 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 If I were a businessman looking to buy a football club, I'd be waiting for that said club to go into administration so I could pick up for cheap. If we had to go into Administration , there would be no shortage of offers as we would then become a good club to buy. Looking at it from a business point of view, if you are not a Rangers fan, you'd be silly to bid for the club at this current time. Why pay near £31 million in debt, when in 4 months you could clear the debt for as little as £15 million? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccoist355 4 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 A question for you. IF the club is in such terrible trouble, why doesnt somebody at the club come and explain IN DETAIL the horrors that await us. If somebody from the club said "If we don't get a buyer we'll have a budget smaller than Falkirk in 5 years time" then we would all, i'd say, happily chip in 200-500 quid to save the club and buy the club on a fan's ownership model. At least 100'000, i believe, if presented with a choice of: Rangers going into Admin OR 200quid each to buy out the club, would happily contribute. But we're not getting that choice. On one hand we're being told by Watty the "Evacuate Ship" Alarm is ringing, on the other hand there's no rescue message to the fans FROM THE CLUB. The fans I believe would happily come to the rescue - but we first have to hear the rescue call FROM THE CLUB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson 2 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Does anyone inside the club actually care whats happening apart from Walter obviously. He has probably only been kept on to stop him telling us all whats what. I really do wonder how a club can sell two players for over £8M, have a run of 17 games in Europe including a final and still be in our position 2 years later. Whatever our position is, that is...

mccoist355 4 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Martin Bain is getting paid a huge wage for doing FUCK ALL. Why isnt he updating Rangers fans on a weekly basis on this apparent crisis which threatens the future of the club? Why is it being left to Walter Smith to be the messenger of doom? He's not negociating many transfer fees, he's fucked up the merchandising by closing our shops, he's not getting a buyer for the club... what the hell does that man do day to day??

Think RFC is referring to the point raised that the banks would be forced to accept less in the £1 if the club were in Administration, and they are a case for that as been proven in the past by clubs in Administration. The problem right now is the banks want there money, and wont budge while we still have our heads just above water. If we were in administration they would have no option to accept less than the pound, meaning in theory more interest from potential buyers looking to snap us up in the cheap.

Why pay near £31 million in debt, when in 4 months you could clear the debt for as little as £15 million? Debt won´t be reduced to anything mate as it is not rangers who would be going in to administration. MIH would have to go into administration and then the assets owned by MIH would be sold off by the administrators. Rangers would then be sold but whoever buys the club would have to take on the entire debt that Rangers owe. Rangers on it´s own would have no problems from the bank with a 31m debt - the problem is MIH´s 700million debt (figure thanks to DJGAZ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's the point why these potential buyers are playing a cat a mouse game, they don't want to pay the full price and the bank don't want to accept a lesser value in the £1. So as RFC pointed out if you are a Business man and not a Rangers fan you play the waiting game, and see the club strip assets and get nearer the brink. as the debt interest continues to play, the club is forced to enter administration. with next to no big assets to sell so you can then pick it up for a cheaper price. They ain't no 100% guarantee, we wont enter administration if no new buyer is found in the foreseeable future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
