CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Just spotted this on a thread on VB.It is claimed that Ellis brokered a recent vineyard purchase for a certain Custodian of this parish.If true, they appear to have more links than either is admitting to.No wonder he plans to make Minty "President for Life"!They could be joined at the hip (pocket) already.

caseyjones 3,009 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 There have been suspicions that they were in cahoots with each other. Everything surrounding Ellis and this deal seems shady. Only time will tell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsox1 1,361 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Talk is that ellis is just a stooge for murray to push up the price for King to buy the club.We must remember that if King comes in with a Low offer it will not be Rangers getting done it will beMurray getting less than he wants.This all comes down to buying Murrays shares.

Ibroxblue 122 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 One of the papers today suggests Ellis is working with Akers. Who knows? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu McMahon 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 ive been progressively getting the feeling that the whole ellis thing is a media stunt in a bid to attract other buyers or make other buyers put a bid in, particularly since the whole 'i could walk away if it's in the best interests of the club and allow another buyer to take over' recently.

Ibroxblue 122 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 One of the papers today suggests Ellis is working with Akers. Who knows?That's Chris Akers, not acres of vineyards. I find it hard to believe that Ellis is involved in a publicity stunt or some other sort of subterfuge. He's been at it far too long for that to be credible to me. A personal publicity stunt, for example, would surely not need to last so long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnson 27 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I have a growing feeling that Ellis is a frontman for Murray's fall-back plan to get the club back in his own hands on the cheap, should MIH go belly up.All that Ellis is done so far is buy Murray some time.Maybe it's a way of keeping Lloyds at bay, as he's hoping they won't take any further action while a potential takeover is in the offing.No matter what, the fans are being treated abysmally here.I have a feeling this will be a really crucial week. This can't go on for much longer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
