Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I've said from early on in this process that I feel it was a huge mistake for the RST to throw its weight behind TBK's bid given that they are supposed to be representing the support, not the narrow-visioned view of one or two of the RST's hierarchy who hope to be wearing a club tie and blazer if/when their bidder of choice gets the nod.If Ng or Miller win the day the RST will be seen as opposed to the new leadership - a silly stance to have put itself in I feel.They should have sat back and waited like the rest of us.Apparently some of them ( ) can't keep themselves from spouting ill-informed nonsense to anyone who'll listen.PS. One other thing - when did the RST spokesman take his accountancy exams?He seems to be of the opinion that he knows better than the two Court-appointed guys from Duff & Phelps. I 100% agree with you ! How unusual! (Oh and I had jsut posted similar or I would have just agreed with your post!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

boss 1,941 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 “There’s definitely been a mood swing concerning Duff & Phelps and their recent behaviour,” said Mark Dingwall, board member of Rangers Supporters Trust. “We feel it has become more and more curious in terms of the time it is taking to make the important decisions.“The timing of the SPL decision has angered the Rangers support. Many of us don’t believe it was coincidence that the SPL unveiled the new proposals on the day Duff and Phelps were supposed to announce the preferred bidder. We feel it was an attempt to delay or derail the process.”He answers his own point and blames the SPL, not D&P. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS. One other thing - when did the RST spokesman take his accountancy exams?He seems to be of the opinion that he knows better than the two Court-appointed guys from Duff & Phelps. The RST have stated on various occasions (e.g. agm's) that if and when we get a fan on the board it would require to be someone with the correct business experience. In their own words that means it would not be one of the "hierarchy".Another thread another lets turn it into a RST and Dingwall bashing excercise. All you critics, what are you doing?

sergio 1,199 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Dingwall has been touting this stuff about the administrators long before this week in an attempt to pressure them into selling to the blue knights. Let's hope when they don't he shuts up for a while....If the preferred bidder goes to Miller or Ng their noses will be out of joint, I cannot see them switching sides without demanding places on the board.But.....but.....that can't be so.He's an expert.

54andcounting 627 Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Let’s clear one thing up, when I titled the post “Our leader” I was being sarcastic, he is not my leader as I am not a member of this organization, however he has a right to have his say and if the members of his organization do not like it! Then they can get rid of him.Personally, I don’t think any of the fans organization’s should have aligned themselves to any of the bids, because by doing so, they run the risk of alienating the other bidders.D&P to be far to them, believed I think, that they seen us as a football institution and with a huge fan base and an unrivalled history, therefore they did not expect the level of venom thrown at us by the scum, clubs, and other fans, or the unsympathetic, unhelpful shenanigans of the SFA/SPL.

GeneralCartmanLee 313 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Heaping doubt on the other bids, posting slurs about them liquidating us and slagging off the administrators that's the way the blue knights promote there bid. There bid is weak and poorly thought out so they slag off everyone else involved in attempt to drag them down to there level.These are not the kind of people we want involved in our club Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartansmokie 36 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I dont believe that Mark Dingwall is the right person to be asked his opinion on anything to do with the takeover bids.He has his own agenda, regarding the BK bid, which he firmly believes will see him become a member of the board and will push his views across at the drop of a hat to get that club blazer and tie.The person or persons who are actually voted onto the board MUST have the fans and the clubs best interests at heart and not just the opinions of one man or one set of supporters clubs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Negri's Beard 1,423 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 The administratorss have one of the most complex, most convoluted, administrations to content with. Then they have had to contend with the rule change announcements ! Oh and they are doing so under the most public scrutinity. BUT that well known financial expert Mark Dingwall feels qualified to comment on how they should be doing their job, how they should be handling it and what timings they should be working to!People need to realise that Administrators do not have agendas - they have jobs to do, jobs that they have to report to the court in.There are plenty of people to take our impatience and ire out on - the administrators however are NOT and should not be a target for that ire.Well said Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB its very obvious you dont want Blue knights to succeed, so where does that leave us if the other two bids take us to liquidation???Im no fan of MD but its getting boring listening to some of the shit written about RST as they are the enemy..............Im only interested in My beloved club avoiding liquidation and having someone that will put his head out there rather than hide behing a keyboard and not even have a picture of himself up.brave souls that they are....Like i said i respect all true bears and there opinions but some of the opinions would make a beggar weep with glee looking on in here.

GeneralCartmanLee 313 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Why are the other bids "taking us to liquidation" The only people saying stuff like that is dingwall and the morons he gets to do his bidding Liquidation is a possibility whoever buys us depending how things turn out.
