Ger for life 199 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Given the figures on what our debt could be as released by the Administrators what was the big push for the RFFF?Having contributed to this like so many fellow Bears it seems like what we have done means little given the figure of £134m. I have no qualms about stepping up to help our club in this time of need.My concern is that fellow Bears may have given money they perhaps could ill-afford in the belief that their contribution was helping to keep our club going until we were taken over.I am now bordering on the angry that what we have done appears to be something of an irrelevance given the debt we apparently now face.I am struggling to see why raising £1m would be sufficient to keep us going in the face of such outstanding amounts of debt.Please do not treat this post as a negative thread because it is far from it.I have never been so proud of the way our Rangers' Family has united and rallied behind our beloved club in recent weeks.My concern is that our love for our club may have been falsely manipulated by parties who have no such feeling or interest in our future well being.I am not financially minded so I would welcome the contribution of superior knowledge in this regard.

WVB 2,560 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I asked the same question to Mark Dingwall, but he sped away in his chaffeur driven solid gold Lambourghini. I'm sure our moneys in safe hands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the greatest respect for all true Bears and I realise that we all want the best for our club. I hope that these figures are not the final picture and indeed will be happy to be slated on here if everything turns out well for the club we love!

nachothelegend 1,932 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Yes, it is amazing what can happen when you tighten your Belt.This must be the Blueprint for our Future when we come out of Administration.Then we will dominate Scottish Football again and then who knows what can Happen .But we must Learn .

We're clearing the air on a lot of topics, and just like the business at Ibrox needs to get sorted, some groups and people out there need to be as well.We have, without a doubt, the best support in the world. Ready at a moment's notice to go to bat for our club. The bheasts and mhedia will have their say, but our day in the sun isn't too far off.No finer club in the world.

pcbear 10,924 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I felt proud of all the fans who rallied to the cause, organising, printing, making, buying stuff they did not need,sorting out loads of fund raising events, turning up in vast numbers,and much much more, mention also to the players and staff who took a dunt but stuck together like the fans as if glued.In the big picture the money raised may not look massive, the economy is fragile, the cost of living outrageous, but each and every one of has in our own little way done something worthwhile in the last 6 weeks, and the new bond will make us stronger heading on.The fans are the club and i am proud of every single one.

The Godfather 72,390 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 The 134m figure is bullshit. More concerning is that the money raised doesn't even come close to paying D £ PThe RFFF won't be paying D&P.This potential debt figure is total fantasy at the moment as nothing has been decided, I would urge all rangers fans worried about those figures to look at the various threads on here. Worrying needlessly comes to mind at the moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he would surely know that Craig Whyte does not represent Rangers in any shape or form.How shameful of you to suggest Rangers, not CW, don't think much of him.Idiot.

jimgers 565 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 The RFF is a great initiative, i have and will continue to contribute to it. It was raised to help pay with the running of the club, but i think we could and should pay some of the small creditors like the money owed to the Newsagents.We paid Dunfermline? a debt of honour is a debt to be paid regardless of how small.Watp Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cluanie 3 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Like it or not, our club has been acting like a cheap shower of bastards,and dragging our name through the shite. I would be a lot happier if the cash raised by the fans was used to settle these debts to small businesses.The idea of giving it to the admins sticks in my craw I have to say.
