Edmiston Drive 3,846 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 But didn't/doesn't want to put any of it up to 'save' the club? How much has your businessman par excellence made in his 'glittering' career? Still awaiting the link to this 'donation'??His career was that of employee and as I said before he dabbled in property development late on perhaps when he left Deutsche. So I don't think he ha run any of these big businesses that BT is convinced he did because someone has given him that script. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting for details from him of this 'donation' let alone an insight into this mythical CV. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Interesting.Anyone who's bought public, what sites did you use to purchase?

So rather than a 'generous' £1 million from his own pocket it was an undisclosed portion of £1 million!

BEARGER 339 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Surely they would be on Charles Greens side?If they are McColl is beaten, but in his statement the other day he seemed sure he would get the required support. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 157 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Give us a run down of mini's fantastic business record.Why don't you give us one of Green's fantastic business record too?In the interests of balance of fairness of course.Remember to include the likes of Kingsbridge Holdings, Formation Group, Panceltica etc that's over £400m of shareholders funds vanishing into thin air for a start.

Guardian 4,281 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I liked Martin but doubt he will be backOnwards and upwards for Rangers Murray McColl and the team. But I thought McColl said he wasn't interested in putting money in ? Is he lying again ? Rangers under them may go in many directions but onwards or upwards ain't it.You'd be gutted if we did.Just looks like more mudslinging to me.

weejoseph 2,773 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 he is at the very top and regarded as a great leader... by people in the city by big business owners.I doubt the opinion of a chap on the internet is going to carry much weight against such a great career.A career that will go from strength to strength when he walks up those marble stairs once again You're fucking at it.
