Could this be as straight forward as new investors having conditions around who is and isn’t on the board?

I think that’s the hope.

If past events provide us anything to base this on then it suggests real disharmony in the boardroom (which I think we already knew about)

We can only hope mate, we can only hope.

As Barry Scott not representing a £6.5m loan, is this to be repaid?

[Courtyard Bear 41,357]

Words cannot express how absolutely fucking OVERJOYED I am that this cunt has left the building. 

Dont let the door hit you on the way out, actually naw put your head in the door and let someone slam it a few times then fuck off.

He has the perfect attributes to be a Council Leader eh. Loves a meeting, can talk till the cows come home and never achieve anything. Maybe that's harsh but i think Rangers need a change.

Harsh?Let him off lightly there.Obviously you meant Glasgow Council because he seems to do everything to help and appease those from the East!!!

Paul Murray doesn’t resign from that Job due to disharmony imo 

 

[onefootwillie 1,518]

Difficult to know why they have gone but I would have thought it was most likely be due to new investment coming in and places on the board being freed up. It's going to be a very interesting few weeks.

Exactly - there should be casualties for the year we and the club have endured. If that’s what it is then good riddance. IF. 

After the disaster on the pitch this year. Heads had to roll in the boardroom. Please let Robertson be next.

I am hoping this is a sign that the board is getting restructured and that new investment is on the way.

For once the apparent coincidences may point towards a positive. 

[Courtyard Bear 41,357]

Dougie Park is no fan of the little rat and that’s putting it mildly. King is up to his eyes in court trouble and maybe doesn’t have the muscle in the boardroom  

Could simply be Dougie is clearing house.

Well hopefully that’s the case and there is news of investment related to gerrards appointment to spearhead a revolution.

[Bears r us 30,817]

Well that is good news about PM, he has been a nothing all his time on different Rangers boards , BS I think put in some money or fronted money (loans?) into the Club form HK so I am not sure why he has left at the same time.

Since we the fans are always the last to know what is going on I am going to say this will hopefully be the start of King going and someone taking over that can finally take the Club forward. The other options that have been mentioned are too uncomfortable to think about at the moment.

So you think Fenway are just going to pump money in without buying shares?  So their only return on that investment would be that Steve G gets some managerial experience. 

 

.....and farm out rough diamonds with some returning polished!

 We have no idea what is playing out behind the scenes but if Fenway, for example,  were to invest (lets pluck what seems like a ridiculous figure out of the sky) £100m, that sum of money is absolutely fuck all to them. They made £137m profit just be selling Coutinho. They could make the same profit again if they were to cash in on Salah (or if he forced a move to Spain).

Then you've got all the Sky money sloshing around and this years Champions League money (circa £100m if they were to win).

Now, i'm not saying they would be willing to spunk £100m over us but given the sums of money they are dealing with it is not inconceivable that a business group  with a long term view may think investing £100m to develop a future manager and a host of kids and reserve players is money well spent. In today's market all they need to do is unearth one gem and the costs are covered. £100m is eye watering to scottish football and a drop in the ocean to EPL clubs. Its not only about investing in people. They'd be gaining additional training facilities, corporate hospitality etc.

How any such  investment is achieved  is another matter.

Reasons? 

Maybe a legal move because King hasn't complied with cos ruling.

Everything that you write I like except the concept that we are somehow a feeder club for Liverpool 

If decent money is invested there is a strong chance in 2-3 seasons we might play them in Europe....how would that work. It was an issue for Ashley when he tried to invest more in us so I can’t see how Fenway can be involved (directly anyway).

It is intriguing, why would they resign now, if they are in agreement about Gerrard then they could have waited till he was in place and avoid speculation 

If they disagreed then they could have waited until he was in place to avoid speculation 

Maybe they are two of the three conditions Gerrard was wanting cleared up, sadly I don’t think King is the third.

I can see why some (taigs mostly) are telling SG not to touch it, I’d hope at least one of his three demands is for a shake up of the board.

On 5/1/2018 at 10:03, OhW said:

Of course that won't be one of the demands. It's the board that hire him, why on earth would they agree to that?

[Bad Robot 21,290]

Good about PM as although I thought he spoke well I’m not sure what he brought to the table.

BS don’t know much about him so no real comment.

Robertson next please

[Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310]

As I said last week, chat is that Douglas Park is taking the club over. This looks like the start of a clear out to me. 

[Courtyard Bear 41,357]

There is no way Fenway are buying Rangers folks, calm doon a bit.

Do we want to sell out & become a feeder club?

[Courtyard Bear 41,357]

So one of the main instigators for SOS UoF and all the other cunts is suddenly on the outside again. 

Will be interesting to see if the criticism of the board increases from certain circles.
