Souness, Kennedy and SDM
Anyone heard anything

I heard Kennedy was in place to invest heavily b4 Xmas, eventually he would have majority shareholding to launch takeover .

Would we really want Murray anywhere near the club? The guy sold us to the biggest chancer on the planet just so he could wash his hands off the mess he created. Can he ever be forgiven for that? I, for one, can never get over that. For all the good times he brought to Ibrox, he didn't half leave some mess.

I think if you look into it SDM was forced into selling Rangers by the banks, at the time the loads of business, s were under huge pressure of debt and Murrry Internationl was one, they had huge debt to the bank and with the big tax case looming they basically said get rid of Rangers or we pull the credit from your companies .
I'm not saying he didn't do anything wrong but at the time he was under huge pressure, I was one who sat through the nine in a row years and watched some of the best players around playing in the Rangers shirts and at that time I never once heard any objection to us singing these stars.
So if it is true and I still think it's a huge IF I'd welcome those guys Souness would be great to have back on board he is the guy we need behind the scenes he would take no rubbish of anyone, we need investment badly we need a manager in the mould of Souness someone who will not accept these lack lustre performances we have lost seven games at home this season 21 points five of those have been under Murty that is simply not good enough, if Aberdeen win their game in hand we are third no change even after the Jan transfer window so for me I'd pick those three guys up with their investments and drive them to Ibrox

I can assure you the investment isn't coming from those names listed above!

"I think if you look into it SDM was forced into selling Rangers by the banks".
Only because his entire tenure of the club was funded by the banks rather than any of his own money. In fact, taking his EBT in to consideration, he probably took more out of the club than he put in. Okay, he did underwrite a share issue when the 'sugardaddy fans' once again failed to invest in the club.
The big tax case was looming over because of his decision to use EBTs. They may not have been illegal at the time, but he knew they were dodgy. So much so that he concealed their use in side letters. The financial collapse of the club was of his doing. People have to stop blaming everyone else for the meltdown.

Spot on mate it’s astonishing that some people still can’t see this and make excuses for him. This man is responsible for the collapse and should never be welcomed back in any capacity

I was told in strictest confidence but I wouldn't put it on here anyway as everyone ridicules posts like these. However I did put a bit of info from the same source regarding a kit deal. Now if this is true regarding the kit deal. we better strap ourselves in! 🙄

20 Mar 2018 17:33:29
Colster very interesting my friend and you're correct! Everytime you pass on something on here that you've been told, it can be ridiculed by a chosen few on here! Sick telling these folks, that out of the goodness of our heart being all bears, we're only sharing our info with our fellow bears! COLSTER, what did you post regarding news on our new kit deal mate?

10.) 20 Mar 2018
20 Mar 2018 18:12:55
It was in reply to your post regarding kit deal. I was told it's a dine deal with Under armour. 3 year deal. Again I stress that this is not out there and could be bull. But if this is true regarding the kit then the other bit of info I got is massive!

thinkaboutit, Murray saved our club white put us in the grubber if people looked a wee bit deeper into what was happening at the time, instead of getting all their info from rumour sites they would come to the same conclusion.

12.) 20 Mar 2018
20 Mar 2018 20:28:41
Only person investing in Rangers this year is Ashley only reason a gone quiet is because everyone doubting my info won't be long now tho guys 😉

Please explain your line.
Murray saved our club.
Craig Whyte being a billionaire has more truth than your line

Murray only cares about his egotistical self
He knew Whyte had zero cash and duped him allegedly!
Ticketus?

Can't believe some of yous no wanting S D M to invest in our club to be honest I'd let Saddam Hussain to invest just to stop smelting winning 10 in a row so belt up people we need money from somewhere as we're going nowhere fast

As I said isle of mull, don't get all your info from rumour sites, do a wee bit of serious research yourself and see what conclusion you come up with . lloyds bank would have put us out of the game for just £19mil and we were talking about days here, look it up and look into Murray International too, we could have traded our way out of trouble but lloyds were in financial trouble at the time and called in all their debts putting hundreds (thousands? ) of businesses out of the game .

18.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 07:36:01
JYF rubbish mate this we only owed £19m how come we had 276 creditors with over £160m in debt. Granted £90m is to the taxman mate but the rest is to people we did business with on a daily basis and left them out of pocket. So JYF you do a bit of 'serious research' and show us how we went into administration owing £19m. As for SDM he left the tax payers (us as tax player owned Lloyd's at the time) £800m down, but was still allowed to cherry pick profitable parts of his empire to buy at knock down price. What a country if wee Jim corner shop hits trouble the banks are in to close it and probably want his house too, but the SDM and Phil Green of this world alway come up smelling like roses.

19.) 21 Mar 2018

Although SDM is not my first choice of investor, at this moment in time we cannot be picky. Dave King has nothing and is clutching for dear life at the moment in his Chairman's seat.

I don't have any rumours or aunties and uncles who knows someone who knows the postie at Ibrox, but I, like many bears, just want stability and if that means a few names that we don't know or like coming into the mix, then so be it.

Is this alleged investment in your eyes good or bad for Rangers?

21.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 11:26:39
Good. don't worry it's not Ashley. seemingly that was one of the stipulations. that he was out of the picture!

22.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 11:29:10
From what I've been told this isn't an investment! If that makes sense. I'll let you draw your own conclusions regarding that statement

23.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 12:04:15
So its a complete takeover/ buyout of the full club, Colster?

24.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 12:11:11
As far as I'm aware the shares don't allow one person to own our club. But the shares can allow a majority shareholder. I stand corrected if I'm wrong!

25.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 14:15:29
Hope your right colster, didn't C. GREEN write something into the first share issue that no one can own more than 15%. He said there will never have a Murray or Whyte running the club ie one guy running the show.

26.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 16:19:38
Come on colster just reveal the full details of the rumour, we know you are dying to!

27.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 16:53:20
Cannon. haha. I'd love to but there are a few reasons why I can't. If the info I got regarding the kit deal is true then I will post what I've heard regarding the Summer as I will then believe what I've been told! 👍

Eh, the liquidators statement that are still working through the Murray and Whyte mess.

30.) 21 Mar 2018
21 Mar 2018 21:53:50
Colster, when is the official announcement on under armour being our new kit manufacturers, likely to be mate? I have absolutely no reason to not believe you mate!

Isle of Mull
Your facts are right regarding the level of debt Rangers where due to many different businesses/ individuals and how the fat cats can wriggle out of it whilst the honest joe gets pumped.
But, my friend, SDM was like you and I, a fan chasing the dream. He gave me the RFC that I’ll support forevermore. Players like Terry Butcher, Ray Wilkins, Stephen Klos, Ronald De Bour, Arthur Newman. Paul Gascogne and Brian Laudrup. Not to mention Graeme Souness.
SDM was forced by Lloyd’s to sell or they were going to ruin him and us.
Craig Whyte’s the charlatan in my opinion and that ties into what I said initially cause now he’s suing RFC!

Give a man a gun, he can rob a bank.
Give a man a bank, he can rob the world!
Lloyd’s forced the £1 deal.
Has anyone been held accountable for the collapse of the banking system in Britain? No chance.
I’m just thankful I’ve still got my team to support.

Silent bomber agree with you on lots of your post but SDM the football fan chasing his dream can't go along with that. This man didn't spend one penny of his own wealth on us, all friendly bankers money. Of course he did take his pound of flesh for his valuable time. It was shown in open court that if SDM sold us for the pound (remember it started at millions) he could get back bits of MI for a penny, we all know what the rugby loving chairman picked. Also mate G Souness was already at Ibrox before SDM arrived. As for Whyte he did put money in (alas not his own) but has to pay it back, so some justice. Again I will SDM used this patsy to make financial gain for himself also shown in court.

supercoop. I have no idea when it will be announced but if we get to the final it's the norm to wear the new kit. China look up the word rumour. I really couldn't care less if no one believes it or not. All I'm saying I was given 2 bits of info. If the kit deal info is true then I'll certainly believe the 2nd bit.

The reason SDM sold ranger's was he got married.
