We tried to sign Craig Conway among many examples but they didnt fancy div 3 - understandable to be fair. And i brought up Green Ashley etc because they are as culpable for where we are right now. So youve got King in your sights (and he's not perfect or above ciriticism) but if he fucked off then what? I'lI' say it again holding King and McCoist as the main culprits over the last 3 years is fuckin laughable Well, you laugh away mate, but I don't think it's funny. Just as I don't think it's funny what the rest did, but this is about the football, and not the behind the scenes dodges people were up too, including our own at times.

Deanzmeanzheinz 4,312 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 It's YOUR take on things that's laughable - nothing else And like it or not football is about in the boardroom now more than ever. Do you know about the 5 way meeting? Have you heard of directors like Petrie, Thompson,, Turnbull Hutton? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven33jackie 1,942 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Can't believe King is getting the blame for the current predicament. I am not his biggest fan but I shudder to think where we would be right now if the status quo had remained with the Easdales and Ashley's puppet in charge. We have just had the biggest investment in the squad since pre 2012 and a youth team set up that is now trying to break the mould by leaving the development league and try something different. King along with the three bears have at least given the club the chance to get back and I am sure if somebody wants to step up to the plate and buy shares and seriously invest then they will step aside, at the moment I don't see a queue forming.

The only difference between our revenue and theirs should be CL monies and GCC corporate hires. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh ffs! The biggest investment? 5.9 mil. You seriously having a fucking giraffe? So where the fuck is the rest of the ST. Let me hazard a guess!

"Who else is better?" Or "At least they're better than the last mob" That's what it always boils down to to these surrender monkeys, what's next? At least it's not 4th place? At least it's not 15 in a row? Well at least hearts got second instead of Aberdeen? At least it's not been 10 years since we've won the league? Time folk wake up. Apart from the fact were now getting hammered off the taigs 4 times a season I don't know what's different between now and a few years ago under the last shower of useless cunts.

Oh ffs! calm down said the school kid to the adult !! £ 5.9 million when was the last time we spent £ 5.9 million pre 2012 by my reckoning. I don't understand what you mean are you saying that King doesn't have shares, quite sure he does. My point is that I am sure he would sell if a willing buyer stepped up. No, not at school anymore, does it matter ? How much do you think the season ticket money adds up to I would reckon between 10 - 12 million tops, remember they still have wages to pay and accounts to balance. As I said I am not his biggest fan and it pisses me off that he is a vacant chairman but I don't think it is as easy to just say its Kings fault. Imagine a situation where you spend every last penny to back a new manager and then realise he is an absolute dud but all the money is spent !! Would it not be more sensible to invest a reasonable amount see how it goes, knowing that if he is a complete dud that you have at least enough cash left to get shot of him.

Very doubtful because then they would need to eat some humble pie. Laughable thing is those same King is ok crew are wanting Pedro punted, but can’t see that King and his giggle gang are the ones that have picked Warburton and then Pedro.

This is what our esteemed chairman said in relation to New oasis management who holds the shares that are controlled by him allowing him a seat on the board Mr King also said that he had never been a director of NOAL, had no legal capacity to represent it and in the circumstances was in no position to advance its interests Mr King passing on NOAL’s view that as the true affected party the obligation was on the Takeover Panel to inform and engage with NOAL direct King would sell tomorrow if it got him a profit Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is the board stuck with Ally too long and then appointed two duds who aren't up to the job, the previous board cant be blamed for everything any more. It's too late for that pish The if we don't win the league this year or next year or the year after then you'll probably still get eejits blaming the old board.
