Some of the posters on here are really quite incredible. They don't like Ashley, don't trust King, why have we got five loan signings in, blah, blah. King's statement today seemed upbeat and confident. He deliberately mentioned Ashley and why couldn't King and a new Board work with Ashley firstly as a shareholder and secondly on the retail side? If King wins the EGM vote the existing Board WILL BE OUT. There is nothing Ashley can do about that and I'm not sure he'd give a jot. As for the five Newcastle players, well let's use them, not just sign them and not play them, like McCoist did with our youngsters and get Gasparatto and MacKay back from loan. They'd liven up the team. Had McCoist blooded say four or five youngsters when we started out in Div 3 then these same players would be much more experienced and better players now and we'd be top of the league.

how can anyone call serious, wealthy and successful businessmen clowns > Do you think Dave King is a pauper,?

(5) No, he's a "glib and shameless liar" as the judge said at his trial. Why the fans are flocking to him is beyond me. He's the next shark waiting to take a bite. Have Rangers sunk so low that we are openly embracing a criminal as a saviour? What happened to dignity?

Disinterested, you are talking nonsense yet again, u forgot the 20 million the man invested in Rangers?, or his tireless efforts to save our club? Or maybe you haven't read the full story of his case in SA? Maybe you shud, for every opinion of a judge, there was another opinion put forward, the authorities who investigated are now under investigation, I'm not saying he was innocent, I'm asking how innocent you are,? And the people who investigated?

Tommy, kings a convicted fraudster, no matter what he says, the three bears seem to be wee lambs lookin for a sheep to follow, Ashley hates king. do you think for one minute Ashley has not got something up his sleeve. appreciate your opinion m8 but don't think your seeing the big picture here. but that's only my opinion. gary

Gary dave king is not a convicted fraudster. he was not found guilty of fraud. nor did he plead guilty to fraud, so the word fraud is not the word you are looking for.

Tommy, he didn't invest 20 million of his own money, he invested 20 million of the poor South African taxpayer's money that he'd cheated them out of.

George, tax evasion is a form of fraud. You can tap-dance around it all you like (and be sure I'm aware of the exact SFA reg you are trying to get out of here) but tax evasion is fraud by any definition, if not in name.

Disinterested expat, if it doesn't say fraud, then it's not fraud, if you got charged with a driving offence, and you plead guilty, but when your charge sheet appeared they charged you with committing a robbery while committing you driving offence, would you still plead guilty?

There you go again George with your delusional pash.

He got charged with tax evasion, and it was tax evasion he was convicted on. It was tax evasion he appealed on. It was this appeal for tax evasion he eventually agreed to drop in exchange for only pleading guilty to a reduced number of counts of tax evasion. The court accepted, and he now has a criminal record for tax evasion. He paid a big fine for tax evasion, and had to pay back about 40 million in back taxes he had evaded paying due to his criminal tax evasion.

I'm sure you'll try to tip-toe around this (again) but you are doing yourself and our great club no favours at all by acting the clueless apologist for a criminal trying to power grab.
