Jimfanciesthedude 24,719 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 well everyone, we know were skint, not "call in the administrators" skint but "transfer market buying" skint imo no big company or rich guy wants to throw away their hard earned cash at a scottish football club (fuck even that diddy desmond over at tattie towers has been out of sight for a VERY long time, so its no just us) so i believe that unless murray spalshes his own personal fortune (haahahahahahahahahahahahahaha) then the only way to "clear the slate" as people put it is to have a PUBLIC share issue becoming a plc is a massive step though as it restricts the club financially as well due to all the shareholders having to be paid a dividend every year if the share issue WAS to go ahead, enough would have to be made to clear the debt completely (well down to 5million or less) added to the dead wood coming off the wage bill, our club may actually turn a profit and as much as i hate saying it, have financial results like the bigot brigade from the east end but the question is WOULD YOU BUY THE SHARES Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerson 2 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 The share issuse scheme 4 years ago was to do exactly that, and where are we now? It wasnt a success then and it has an even less chance now. We need a permanent solution to our money problems and this aint it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigeee 60 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I'd only buy shares to help the club, anyone who's heart doesn't rule their head - with a basic financial knowledge would avoid them at all costs though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was made clear that the rights issue was to clear the debt which then stood at between £70-80M. Many people thought that SDM had caused it so it should be up to him to do something about it, not the fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry handsome 629 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Devil's advocate here, in the current climate only the hardcore who can afford it would buy, i think it would difficuilt for many to justify spending a considerable amount of cash at the moment. SDM is a control freak otherwise he would have diluted the shares to make them more worthwhile ie a major investor who would like a bit of a say in how things work ie Tom Hunter.In NOT BUYING shares then SDM can run the club on a shoe string meaning that we can wave goodbye to major investment in the club. If we WERE TO BUY a significant amount of shares we would still be no further forward unless they were bought under an umbrella type agreement, you own the shares and a supporters group speaks for you. The problem being that the amount of shares needed to have any say would never be released by SDM as it would question his power.. A bit of a mixed post but unless SDM is prepared to let go of some power he will run it the way he wants irrespective of the fans shareholding.

Imodium 412 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 This would be the worst possible time to issue a "fans share scheme" in the current financial climate. Personally, if I had the choice to invest my hard earned money on shares in the club or £1400 on a holiday - I'd take the holiday 10/10 times. Money is tight for everyone and not too many people would be willing to give up their $$$ We pay enough money into this club and shouldn't be used as an easy option to fill in the loose ends caused by years of financial mis-management and poor decisions in contract negotiations. Would you be happy that a percentage of your shares is paying the wages of Lee McCulloch and Dailly? It's bad enough that a percentage of your ticket goes to them.
