SE5 107 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 What's wrong with that comment? Why does it speak volumes? Do you honestly think investors in rangers should only be looking for a pat on the back....we are a business at the end of the day and if we are successful and turning a profit he will make money in the long term! I'd see it as a positive he isn't looking to make a quick buck!He comes across as another chancer out to make money from Rangers. It speaks volumes about the man and his so called Rangers credentials. We are a Scottish football club with a very limited budget and very limited revenue, every penny our club gets needs to be spent on the club and team n order to compete at the level our club and fans deserve, not on investors returns or bonuses for certain directors. When was the last time we made a profit? Once or twice maybe in the last 15 years? How lucky did we have to be on the field of play to turn a profit? Rangers don't do profit and certainly won't in the lower leagues either spending what we do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
William the loyalist 0 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 We need to be selling shares to people who will invest, on the long term it's a great investment, he's worming his way in till that day comes so his shares are worth a lot more. Backing green as well makes me worry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol you live in a fantasy land mate.....who in their right mind buys shares or invests in a club to not make money? Once again he is saying long term he plans to make money! I don't see that as a bad thing....for him to make money we need to be running at a profit and almost certainly be in Europe consistently....too many fans have this faulse perception that everyone who invests should be a rangers fan or only care about the club....what we need is businessmen who can steady the ship, develop our revenue streams and make us profitable in the long term....is easdale capable of contributing to that? I don't know but the comment you picked out is certainly not the terrible thing you seem to think! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I learned from the Whyte nightmare... don't trust people with a dodgy business record. Doing time for tax evasion is pretty dodgy by anyone's standards.

The Easdales are quoted at wanting to cut costs, they are Rangers fans and they have bought shares while Billionaires haven't. Until someone proves otherwise, let them get on with their job.

Both sides will have been lobbying shareholders intensively to get an idea where they stand. I don't think a compromise is an option whilst Green is still with us. The board must sack Green first IMO. Saying that something pure fucked up and unexpected will no doubt happen, as it does every week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If McColl has a billion and is so worried about us he could buy the club with his interest and give it to fans. He has next to no shares whilst folk scrimped and saved before Christmas to help their club, fuck him. What right do these people have to take over a club without putting a penny in. The Zeus team stepped up and played and we are showing our thanks by assisting in a hostile takeover? Real Rangers Men were playing golf with people that despise us with all their pathetic life. Green and Ahmed have burnt their bridges, but they deserve a little fucking respect. Some have them down as the devil yet can't offer an explanation why. Mather put £1m of his relatively modest fortune onto our club and deserves the right to develop that ahead of snakes like Mini Murray, who causes nothing but disruption and just months ago belittled the actions made onto us by the football authorities and our right for justice. Mini wants back on the gravytrain, he can get to fuck along with his blogging groupies Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
