He didn't say if that figure was per year, or to cover the remainder of the contract. Neither seems realistic to me - it should certainly be over 1m per year, but 6m per year from retail alone seems rather unrealistic when you look at what others achieve.

He could have also been referring to the 5M loan he paid back to MA. Quote We are happy to put the money in to cover the retail. It is not a lot of money, it is £5m or £6m Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so - the 5m loan was from MASH, the retail deal is with a Sports Direct subsidiary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree, but sometimes it's not clear what DK means eg Invest 30M = loans He may have meant he's already paid MA 5M. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree that King's statements are often unclear, when you look at what actually results from them. So, we're all just guessing, basically.

Brackley 1,402 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Just had a horrible thought. Given Kings abdication speach this week where he obviously doesn't want to be here and has only had 10 hours of fun during his reign plus his soundbite of wanting a deal with Ashley. .... ................ Is he about to sell out to Ashley. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because the sfa would hammer us under there rules that stipulate no one with an interest in another football club can own more than 10% of Rangers whilst the rule is the same in the English football league. i think king will sell up asap but not to Ashley and I doubt Ashley has any interest in losing any more money Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, very slowly, have another look at my post. See where I didn't say that I support Ashley? What I did say was that Ashley has rung rings around King. King came in with grand promises about sorting out the SD contracts. We are still waiting for that. That's because Ashley is smarter than King. None of this means that I think Ashley is a good guy. Read carefully before you dish out abuse. Ashley and his cohorts had plenty time to draft a watertight contract aided and abetted by all the cunts in the boardroom at the time making sure every t was crossed and i's were dotted and any potential loophole negated, so its a bit unfair to say Ashley has run rings round King, a bit like a man in a wheelchair giving Bolt a 50m start in a 100m race.

MA is cutting off his nose to spite his face by not agreeing a fairer deal.....and that is because he is a fucking bully. Ashley couldn't give a damn about our money for merchandise.because this spat between him and King became personal. We fans don't have the clout to even slightly irritate Ashley. Ashley and King are both bullies in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
