Redsox1 1,361 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Did Mini take a bonus for us getting to the UEFA cup final ? I`m sure I can remember that the directors all took a big bonus for us getting to the final. Even though we must have been in debt by £30M+. Yet they are slaughtering directors for taking bonuses for winning the league. I think it`s wrong for the directors to have these bonuses and that has been addressed in that they will no longer get them. I just think its a bit of a neck from mini if he has also taken same type of bonus in the past. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever their issues, they are doing a better job than the last one he was part of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redsox1 1,361 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 if that board had the foresight to put in clauses about european finals i doff my hat to themYou doff your hat to a board who take out huge bonuses when we are £34M in the red ? We made nothing out of that run , when in fact it should have been our saviour. But that was down to a horrendous board that made bad deal after bad deal.

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Bain got high bonuses when we got the finalDon't see why others wouldn't have been the same In fact the balance sheets that came out at the time suggested that most of the Hutton money and UEFA cup final run money went on bonuses to players and staff - did it not? My mate still talks about that to this day Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsox1 1,361 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 we made nothing off that run. That in its own right would tell me that any of them from that board would be not fit for purpose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the club was only sold due to pressure on SDM from his other business interests?Hardly "run into the ground" when things were heading in the right direction.

Carson's cat 744 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Bonuses for reaching the uefa cup final.In your OP you asked if the directors received bonuses when the club reached the UEFA final. Now you seem to be assuming that they did. Have you checked the 2008 accounts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carson's cat 744 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 What was Mini's salary while he was at Rangers? If memory serves me he was Murray's 'sort the books' man whom ultimately seen us get more into debt and who was silent as the club was whoored for a quid to anyone.He was a non-executive director who received no salary...and he was definitely not silent about the sale to Whyte!

thehost 11,061 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 And did PM get a bonus?Admin - if the answer to this can be confirmed as no, this thread should be locked.Can we lock all the threads where you state things, as if they were fact only to admit no knowledge when questioned?Fwiw I doubt mr Murray got a penny, in remuneration. What I would like to know is what returns he got on his investment. When players were sold, who came through milngavie, the investors were to get a return.

Paul and Dave King were looking at offering £20M for the club as an alternative. Dont know what happened to that money when Charles Green came calling.
