Bertent 2,081 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Depends when the distrust ended mate. I suspect at the point when he encouraged the purchase of ST's.Did it ever really exist to the levels some have painted? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the know 26 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Yes. Let's hope it is managed well.There's some reasonably successful investors/directors at our club. Real trick will be if we can get into England. We could end up being as big as Man U. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big V 271 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 There's some reasonably successful investors/directors at our club. Real trick will be if we can get into England. We could end up being as big as Man U.How do you mean by "get into England"?If you are referring to joining the English league, this will, unfortunately, never happen, or at least not any time soon - there are too many barriers.

Gregor Stevens Fan Club 42 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'd have imagined that they'll be happy at a major cash injection into the club, which they don't have to make, and will have been aware that a share option has been on the cards from day one.The thing is though, I don't really see the reason for a major cash injection at this time. Surely over the next couple of years we have a real chance to start living within our means (or dare I say make a slight profit).I estimate our income will be right down this year to around £15-£18M, however surely we can manage our expenditure to reflect our income whilst in Div 3, without the need for additional investment.

And Chuckie did always say he'd offer a share option at one point, and I've seen folk calling for it already on here. He can't win. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glesgabear81 24 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 These guys are in it to make money. Its relative peanuts to them to buy a piece of the company, when the time comes to sell their stake they will get a hell of a lot more than what they paid in. Thats not a bad thing, I'm not suggesting it will be at the clubs expense, I'm just under no illusions about why people are interested in buying shares in the company.

WWTC 2,249 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 When calculating how much money buys what % share in the company remember roughly half the money CG put up went on fees for D&P. The purchase price for the assets etc was less than 5.5 million.absolute tosh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryH 15 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I remember Green saying that he was going to offer Ally some shares, it was in the same article that Green said something like "i hope Ally is here for 20 years" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 18% It will be 15% the guy owns. Green said no one will own more than that. I think McCoist should have more than 4.5% Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
