4MenHadADream 122 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Despite the fact its from the NOTW, if Whyte is serious about buying us then he must surely be getting f*cked off at the lack of progress/attempts from the boardroom to hold up the deal. Just get it done ffs! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCLACHLAN1 49 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 The frightening thing here is that it already seems that plan b is a non starter...Do these Independant committee clowns realise we will be in ruin next season even further if we don't get substantial investment.

Sheikh Salim 215 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 If David Murray is happy with it then Whyte is more than capable of forcing through a hostile takeover. Surely if he was that keen he would have set this in motion if indeed the committee were stalling on this, instead of setting apparent deadlines. I know if I was a lifelong Rangers fan with a big pot to piss in I would be, instead of dragging the whole debacle out for months trying to get as good a deal a possible. I am just as keen as any to see a Rangers takeover and the club move in the right direction but something stinks regarding this. My heart says I want him to take over as soon as but my head says something will bad will happen to Rangers in the future if he does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Btw can i ask, what where the ff fanzine guys insinuating when selling this weeks issue today? craig whyte buying a round in his local alledgedly? didnt get what they meant tbhFF fanzine guys? Be(fucking)have yourself. Furfuxsake - it was one guy - and FF sellers have never shouted "Half-time, tea-time....any time" slogan - if they did they've stolen it from Number One Fanzine. As for the yell "Exclusive photos of Craig Shite buying a round in his local pub - though yet to be confirmed that he used his own money" is called 'HUMOUR'. It is alleged that the wee London-based spiv has pockets deeper than the Grand Canyon and shorter arms than Dr Evil's mini-me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralCartmanLee 313 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 if he is so desperate and sir david wants to sell why does he not put in a bid instead of getting his pr firm to feed stories to the news of the world, the guy is a fraud..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM1872 3,708 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Wouldn't surprise me one bit if this is true. It is fucking ripping my head from my neck why the fuck this can't be done!!The stumbling block, for me, is why the fuck hasn't Whyte made an offer? He isn't keeping the board so why give a fuck what they think? especially AJ. Murray wants to sell, the bank says ok, make a bid and FUCKING GET ON WITH IT!!!The sooner this gets done the better. No debt, idea of the direction for next season and so what if he's going to sell 5/6 years down the line? Their is a higher chance of more interested parties due to the club hopefully being in a more healthy position.No more UEFA cases to "provide a block for the takeover". Get it done.

disgruntled_bear 157 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Whyte will take responsibility for any tax bill resulting from Rangers' ongoing dispute with HMRC if he completes his proposed takeover this week.
