KeyserSoze 14,655 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Really good statement with alot of good points,all these people telling king where to go would be the first to complain when that mob are closing in on 10 in a row.when he says start acting like a small club you become one scares the crap out of me,we must start to listen before its to late because he knows alot more about finance than anyone on here.Why on earth would anyone give a flying fuck about what "they" are going to do/or not. King's statement has had the desired effect on you. We are just over half way through GW's 120 day review - let us see what that looks like first.

Dunny_01 2,007 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Boys, to be honest, I think we have to ask questions again after this statement.Like him or not Dave King is a Rangers fan and only Rangers fan who has put in and willing to put in massive amount of monies.I dont agree one bit with this bully tactic and I also believe Graham Wallace could walk tonight after this, I dont know.BUt what I do know is Every one of us Bears should stop slagging the guy off ........He s a rangers man the same as everyone of us, and if he wants to ask questions, then lets listen to the answers and make our minds up.My question is ..........Why not have another share issue right now ??

boydyrfc 0 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Words fail me for some of the things I've read on this thread.Open your eyes.Dave King wants what Is best for Rangers, I wish some supporters had the sense to see it.Probably would explain why we've been taken for fools the last few years.

Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 That's how Ticketus were involved with us in the first placeSsshhhh mate your not allowed to point out the flaws when its a great Rangers man.Got to love the irony of a man so dead against fan involvement, suddenly jumping into bed with any fan ownership group who will listen to his latest cock and bullshit story.

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Anyone who tries to disrupt season ticket sales is scum in my eyes so yes it does devalue itBehave - or take your unthinking nonsense to an audience that cannot reason beyond your fatuous assertion. It should be a very small audience I'd imagine.Although you might find some of the fake accounts on here willing to give you the time of day.

The fact is there is no middle ground anymore not after this statement and how we both as a club and as a support deal with this could shape our future for years to come. The extremists have taken over and could drive us back to admin with their ST boycott pish and shame on King for encouraging them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

willygers4life 1,031 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 It's obvious king wants to be the top man, so why in all honesty not just dip his hand in his pocket buy enough shares to have some sort of say then go from there. Then that way he can see that nothing is going on and allows him to invest the money he claims he wants to invest cause at the minute that's all it is.

Jimfanciesthedude 24,779 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Your right it is called business and thats why he wants it on the cheap,because that is business! I'll tell ye what he will get his hands on the club eventually.aye when he's caused another admin and the current lot sell everything valuable and leave us high and dry because we never even gave them a chanceno thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theiconicman 3,000 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 They havent taken a loan against season ticket money though. We get money for winning the league, TV money, Advertising, Sponsorship, retail, etc etc. The £150k will not necessarily be paid for by season tickets.Ticketus on the other hand was exclusively by season tickets because essentially they ring-fence a volume of tickets and they get paid as they are bought. That's all spent. The money to repay this loan will come from season tickets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could see the fans warming to the current board so his last fling of the dice was cause as much panic and fear as possible and sit back and watch us do his dirty work for him.

bluenosebrad 452 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I am disappointed in King suggesting holding ST money back from our club. To me this is a tactic to damage the current board, and put the shite in to fans not knowing what to do. I want to know what the plans are when the 120 days then we know where we stand. For some reason pressure is being put on GW to disclose this now. We need a plan to know what investment is needed to move the club forward not pressure on GW to panic. If you actually read what is stated by the current board its put a credit facility in place just in case we are required to use it, they have not stated that we have no money and we are bridging this with the 1.5mil until ST monies are raised.
