Hi again ed don't know if you will allow this post but here goes- what questions would the readers like to ask Dave King, could we compile them and pass them Mr King PA /spokesperson?. Bet we can come up will some good interesting questions ed which might just give us some insight into his overall plans
I would like to ask if the post on the financial page concerning laxey shares is correct also does he mean to buy shares from existing shareholders to facilitate there removal ordoes he as we are told by mr spiv starve them out and does he realise the precarious position this would put the club in and also if he gains control will he sell shares to supporters to enable them to own significant share
Good question. Be interesting some of the questions which come up. Hope there is as much thought put into them as there would be if there were questions being listed for current board. Get a feeling some jump on the Dave King bandwagon with no investigation into his motives etc.
Guys update post should appear on financial page shortly if Ed's post. Couldn't go in to full details as posting on mobile this morning. Long live the king.
I would like to know what his plan is and what he and the union of fans spoke about their demanding the board give transparency but yet they aren't being transparent with the fans who they say they represent I think between them they are only out for self gain their asking fans to withhold st money but yet tell us nothing

I would like to know why he's waiting for the results of this 120 day review as there's no way that length of time should be necessary to review a company of Ranger's size.
Mullad - two questions would do me to start
1 in order of priority what are your objectives?
2 what is your plan/strategy to meet your objectives?
Jg
If or how close would it benothingbuthetruth is correct and dki gets laxeys shares the easdales cam on board counting supporters holdings and all sympathetic parties how close does it come to have enough to gaining control and also how close does it come to forcing another share issue considering it could not be forced through previously
O. P no airy fairy waffley tosh like what are you plans- we have had enough bull sh#t already
1 why the feck did it cost over £5million for the IPO?
2 Show us the title deeds please?
3 why did you give preference to a secured loan when a lower cost un secured loan was available from a season ticket holder and share holder?
4 Can you confirm Mr Whyte and Mr Green are no longer involved in this pulped fiction?
5 Did all paid executives/directors take a 15% pay cut? If not why not?
6 Given costs are not dramatically reduced and we have the second highest footballing wage outlay in Scotland how do you see us surviving next year if there is no £17million extra money from a share issue.
7 What is the point of Murray Park? Wasn't that built to save the cheque book management and produce our own kids that could be sold on at great profit?
8 Without considerable cheque book management again which caused our problems in the first place how will we have a team to rival the top teams in the SPL in 16 months? And because we haven't really seen too many youngsters coming through the specialist youth development facility haven't we missed a colossal opportunity since it was built at huge expense and hasn't the biggest opportunity not been missed in the last two years when the competition has been of a much lower standard?
And finally gonnae jist gae us anither manager silver plate?
Nbear2 _ you lost it again? the OP asked what questions would you ask D King, how is he going to know the answer to your questions,
he wasn't involved in the IPO,
he hasn't seen the deeds,
he didn't give preference to anybody, etc etc
you get the jist?

@ 9 yes you are correct (there's a first time for everything) my brain was working faster than my keyboard (there's a first time for everything) The sentence I missed out was no real questions for Mr King but in his various meetings with the current board perhaps he could ask the real relevant questions.
The long standing issues as listed in my earlier post and most importantly for him or whoever else is in charge come season 2014-2015 is we needed £17million plus potentially £1.5million over and above all earnings such as ST, gate money, sponsorship and shirts and memorabilia sales to survive 18 months how on earth does whatever board envisage us surviving the whole of next season?
And we don't need to see the interims to know we do not earn nearly enough to survive with our ridiculously high expenditure- Bill Miller's black hole.
Get the jist now bud? guid.
