MisterC 12,191 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Am I alone in thinking that the trumpeting of these potential deals is merely a smokescreen to provide cover for another interested party who wants to keep things schtum for now? Its a bit funny how these deals are being talked about so much and with little to back them up. I would not be suprised if there was someone else waiting in the wings biding their time and then moving in when the time is right. Some of the names mentioned last year in particular have been noticeably quiet of late and I think theres more to it than meets the eye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markybear 136 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I wud be happy to put my money where my mouth is in this supporters owned RFC scheme, however I don't think enuf bears will want to or be able to do the same. It's a very challenging period of time at the minute with the credit crunch and mass unemployment. For those of us who mite be able to afford it just now it doesn't mean down the line that I or others will still be gainfully employed in say 5yrs time. It just doesn't seem viable or sustainable. Just my opinion, any thots folks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutchy14 4 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I think that the ellis bid is just a publicity stunt so that other people will become interested. If so seems to have had worked so far Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu1993 101 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 i think you could be right MR.C, I know he hasnt been so spot on in the past but big DJ Still realy thinks dave king is interested in us and he still thinks he will come in at one point.

ZimmyGer 1 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 No I don't think it is at all.The club has been open to Rangers fans with the available means for a long time-the fact that they have not progressed to the stage Eliis has tells a tale.There may be interested parties, it may be the oft mentioned consortium, it may be King but logic would tell you there is a trigger to get to the stage Ellis has and they haven't pulled it.If the Ellis deal fails I suspect it has failed on its own merits not as any part of any smokescreen-indeed someone would need to explain to mee how this could be set up without it being detected at some stage.Pub talk for me, sorry.
