Is there any reason this board selected London for the EGM, apart from pissing the fans and shareholders off!

After all the NOMAD has confirmed this today that the board selected the venue!

This is a sign of complete desperation by them and will prove to be there undoing,

I would advise every shareholder to proxy there vote and avoid posting in case of another "great train robbery" and the mail goes missing! Even if it's recorded this means nothing if it goes missing.

Proxy the vote to either rangers first etc, or go to the louden pub on Friday night the RST will be there to help

Ranger. I don't believe Ashley and co are just sitting doing nothing. these guys are clever people, they're bound to have something up their sleeve. mite be talkin sh, ye here, but what if they lodge a complaint to SFA that king is not fit for purpose could this stop the gem till investigation is done, I don't know. but they'll have something. gary

2.) 12 Feb 2015
No he's got to be no the board first before the sfa can check if he's a fit and proper person

3.) 12 Feb 2015
Gary the fit and proper thing won't happen until after the e. g. m. and it has nowt to do with the current board anyway mate, mr king could get control then could be deemed not a fit and proper person, but he would just nominate another to take his place.

Gary, don't u know the egm has already been called?, fit and proper has already been tried by them, now the SFA will work on that when and if dk. Returned to board

5.) 12 Feb 2015
We all know, hand on heart, that he's not fit and proper. He's only popular right now because he's the lesser of two evils compared with Ashley.

N5 mr king and the 3 bears are all rangers die hards, they will make money from rangers, not immediately, but will make money eventually, I recon most of us back these people because we know they will run the club, for the support, and not only for profit they will have our stadium full and lots of people will renew books under them, IMHO.

7.) 12 Feb 2015
I hope you're right, George, but I fear you're not. Being a Rangers-man doesn't always keep their fingers out of the till.

8.) 12 Feb 2015
N7. The mob running our club have took took took, I wander if they know what a till is eh.lol.

9.) 12 Feb 2015
Forget all the Rangers diehard shook, all we need is a clinical business brain to run our finances. One attribute that is essential----- honesty. Look at Fergus McCann, he was ridiculed by the majority of us, but he went about his business in a professional manner and showed exactly what is required. Shouting your mouth off is easy but doing the business in a quiet, efficient manner is the answer.

Billyb I take it from your comment your backing Ashley.

god almight, once agaqin DK is accusd of trying to make money, HE IS A RANGERS FAN, and wealthy as it is, he doesn't need to come home and try to make a few quid, he makes plenty were he is, he already gave rangers 20 million, some people simply don't see the big picture, The man is trying to save his club,,, get it yet??>

12.) 13 Feb 2015
I don't get it, Tommy. He's using other people's money to get the club. The 20 million he already put in was other people's money. He was part of the board when all the Murray shizzle was going down. He's involved in our 2012 downfall as much as Whyte ever was. He's up to his armpits in it.

But let's put it aside and let's say King wins the EGM, and let's say he gets fit and proper clearance (friends with handshakes in high places). Him and the 3B kick out the Ashley stooges, and look at the books. How much money will they need to put things right?

The 3B have already sunk £13 million into the share buyout.
Ashley's loan, so £10m back to him.
There at least £8.3 million required to reach 1 April in operating costs, and more to get to the summer, say £10m.
£6.5 million to underwrite a share issue.

So we're looking at no change from £50m just to get to the share issue.

This doesn't include:-
£12m to upgrade Ibrox
£10m to upgrade MP - optional
Any sort of player warchest we need - since most of our players (and manager) are out of contract this year, I'd say that we need in the order of another £10m to stay where we are - top of the Ch bottom of the PL. More again if we want to challenge next year.

So the share issue has to come up with at least £20m just to stay where we are, preferably £30m.

The last one raised £22m.

I'm no accountant, but the numbers don't stack up for me. If the 3B have £50m rattling about, WTF where they in 2012 when Green was getting his mitts on us? I know good people who got stung in that 2012 share issue, I'm being straight when I'm scared it's going to happen again. How much of that share issue income is promised back right away to the 3B backers? How much will be left for a warchest or to fix the Ibrox roof? Hee-haw is my opinion.

Call me unconvinced.

Dis expat, so that's your opinion, the people trying to get control must have a different opinion, they must think it can be done, they are interested long term, do you honestly think they are looking to lose money, they are investing long term so as they will know rangers will always be in the hands of rangers people, and that will do for me, Ashley would be happy for us to be fighting relegation every season just as long as people are buying replica kits, .

14.) 13 Feb 2015
We'll see.

How yi doin, Unconvinced?

Anything has to be better than the shower we have just now. I think that when the spivs are ousted and the ousters outline their plans, more people will invest in Rangers. People like Robert Sarver may be interested in coming on board. First things first, this lot must go. I've already proxied my shares to Rangers First. Bears, I know you are angry and there is a lot of bad feeling around, but please do not go near the EGM. Post or proxy your vote and leave the rest to Mr King. Don't give these shysters an excuse

Disinterested, you are wrong, again, DK invested more money into Rangers than the rat Murray ever did, he was shocked to discover Murray was using the banks money to finance massive signings, he then pleaded with the rat not to hand our club over to Popeye, along with Paul Murray and Alastair Johnston they came out in the press to warn us all of this man, the rat ran the club like his own property and made universall decisions, alone, he was the owner, his word was king, now if you think that Dave King and the others don't have some idea of what the costs may be ahead, then you must believe that you have more fiscal knowledge than all these successful businessman,?
If you do then tell us who you are!
