Super1872 469 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 He'll have to ask the puppet masters what to say that's the problem here the blind leading the blind.I asked this question a couple of times in another thread when they first came out about not renewing. Received no answer then either.Wouldn't hold your breath. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogzy 31,195 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 The point is they don't see their actions as being harmful to the club and in fact think that a future of being run by a board with no power controlled by investors is harmfull to the club.Unfortunately we'll have to wait to see how this pans out but nobody can say with any conviction that the current regime is good for Rangers long term , but we can say from the day we came out of liquidation to this day the guys running the show have pissed away some amount of cash .Re: the bold part.We are a PLC, the investors will pretty much ALWAYS ultimately control the club.Single ownership is the only way around that, then you are at the mercy of one man.It's a catch 22 situation IMO, but generally the board are and always will be ( to an extent) puppets for the majority shareholders. Whether that be one shareholder with over 51%, or a party of shareholders with over half the voting rights. These are the guys that hold the sway at the club, and the only way they are going is if they are bought out IMO. Helll you wouldn't even have to buy them all out, you would only need to buy out enough of the to weaken the majority vote to have a real say in how we are ran.example: Buying out BPH/MH = 10% ( roughly). This would both give someone 10% of the club, and weaken the party of shareholder that are currently in power by 10% That would be significant IMO.

ianferguson 2,619 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I agree. This "all the moneys been pissed away" is fucking drivvel. I dont back the board 100% in any way but people have been brainwashed into thinking that every penny of the cash spent had went in their pockets is shite, any group that spreads half truths deserves as much credibility as a group that spreads a blatant lie.I stand by my statement that "some amount of money has been pissed away " and did:nt say all of it.There have been so many pay offs and unearned bonus's i can't for the life of me see how anyone can deny it , even Wallace said in his 120 day findings that previous board had wasted money.

Christchurch Rangers 1,229 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 We are a PLC, the investors will pretty much ALWAYS ultimately control the club.Single ownership is the only way around that, then you are at the mercy of one man.How come so many clubs get fucked and over big time and nearly bankrupted by individuals then?CW for example. Rangers seemed to be at the Mercy of one individualjust thinking out loud here, errr if thats possible on the internet Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

theweebluenose 4,335 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 BF1 being considered for rail-seating / safe standing area....?Apparently the Mhanks are awaiting a reply for safe seating at the shit pit, can imagine it being costly so not sure if it be a move we'd be making now. Would love it to happen though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WadeWilson 4,670 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Id love for that to happen. For one thing it would be a moneymaker for the club, it would be the quickest selling section every year. Has there not already been approval for standing sections in Scotland? Id ask for a move to that section.New SPFL rules some kind of an allowance for standing areas.

Guest Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Probably because theres only like 20 of them and they know this sense of entitlement they have is a load of bollocks. Fuck sake they cant even make their own minds up their politics and opinions are dictated to them pure Ultraz n that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1690tamRFC 5,001 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 As others have, I asked a question out of genuine curiosity on how many UB members were ST holders just to see how much that their boycott of tickets would be affecting the club, I don't understand why PRW can't answer that.

I still think the SPFL need to seek permission at a higher level... But it was one of the new add-ons when the organisations 'revamped.'

macranger 296 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I was looking at the Public sale on the Rangers website for new season tickets,http://www.rangers.talent-sport.co.uk/PagesPublic/ProductBrowse/standAndAreaSelection.aspx?stadium=IB&product=ST1415&campaign=38&type=S&productsubtype=and I see Rangers have made BF1 unavailable for public sale.Think the Union bears should be taking that as a wee bit of faith, so I say Down your Spray paint cans and get yer season tickets !!!!!!I personnally hate everything that is going on and fully backup anyone who doesnt buy there season ticket, but I want to be sitting beside yees all next season so hope u buy your tickets soon.BY THE WAY Just an Add on.......Rangers should be shot the way there promoting season tickets, No doing enough in my eyes to build up a feel good factor and make people get out there and buy pronto.Not doing enough? I've had phone calls & emails asking me if I want a season ticket as I had my name on the waiting list. What do you want them to do, Ally to appear at my front door begging me?
