The Godfather 71,886 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Brian Kennedy could "reconsider his position" over his interest in Rangers after the Blue Knights took a step back from the takeover process last night. The Sale Sharks owner said: "I do not want to distract the time critical process of appointing preferred bidders. However should this fall through with the effect of endangering the existence of RFC, I would reconsider my position." Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanh91 75 Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Seems to be more of the same from BK...Maybe just a reminder he's not out of the picture in light of TBK pulling out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewaj3 1,446 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 i dont thint its half hearted, i think bk made it clear he'd do anything to stop us going out of business. His bid was determined not good enough, but he's probably the one bid that i dont question the integrity, honesty and ability of.Im not sure the blue knights have the cash, and the other two well, id be worried that the club may be poorly run if they took over! Kennedy would in my opinion cut things back and get this club running properly before maybe doing what he did with stockport and turning it over to the fans (or blue knights) once we are in a better way!

North Rd 2,860 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Is it better we go for CVA, but remain in admin to protect us from FTT ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanh91 75 Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Is it better we go for CVA, but remain in admin to protect us from FTT ??A CVA is a form of exit from admin. As soon as you get it, that's you out. Also, being in admin would mean no new signings or expenditure on things like stadium upgrades, it would basically be us remaining in a brutal cost cutting situation just to keep us afloat, and wouldn't allow development on OR off the park.

Guardian 4,281 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I don't know if the tax case verdict is better delayed or coming out now.Might we not get a better chance of a settlement before it comes out due to the uncertainty ?If they came out and said we lost totally, HMRC might not be so keen to give up so much.Does anyone know if HMRC can even do a deal in a CVA that will involve a case that hasn't even got a verdict yet ?

He's wealthy but not wealthy enough to throw about tens of millions just because he "cares".His wife and her family are all big Rangers fans and he watched more Gers games than his old boyhood team. His best mate (now brother-in-law) is the Ger who took him to Ibrox. He is also very friendly with Graeme Souness. He has stated that he would hate to see such an institution as Rangers FC going to the wall. His only failing is his inability to prevent such negative posts from sceptics.

I am not saying he would be bad for us but his reasoning so far is nothing more than playing to the gallery. If he did get the club I certainly wouldn't be expecting any serious investment Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
