I take it Paul Murray has been allowed to become a director and is not barred as had been previously suggested for his part in the demise of original Hun fc

He wasn't "barred".

However, now that he has been elected to the Board, he may have committed an offence.

How will King get past the 'fit and proper' test when the SFA rule (10.2) States that any individual May not be fit if:
Convicted in the last 10 years.
An offence liable to imprisonment (2yrs) or more.
Corruption of fraud.

King's SA fines in 2013 were over £700,000 or to accept a 4 year jail sentence. He is also to pay back £44m in back taxes.

The important word.

For £500,00 I'll do his 4 year stretch for him.

He was also involved with Rangers when they folded and cannot rejoin the same or similar company. He will know this so he must have got a dodgy handshake already as I don't think he's an idiot.

I think I read that he unbelievably told the SA court at some point that his annual earnings were only £34k a year.

Jim White is certainly enjoying reporting on it

Cheers for that

Quote from King on Reporting Scotand:

"we want (the) Rangers to go back to the value system and the ethos that we grew up with"

so expect the ban on signing Catholics to be reinstated any day now........

**Pat 0-7** · 06-03-2015 05:59 PM

Paul Murray

Tombstone

What is he slavering about? "Value system and the ethos that we grew up with." What would that be exactly?

The Lying King should be nowhere near Scottish football. Will the SFA have the bottle to stop him. I doubt it. Petrie!!!

It's the typical deluded hun nonsense - tell a lie loudly enough and often enough and they will end up actually believing it, & looking surprised when others don't.

Exactly, the obvious follow-up question for the journos, but they were too embarrassed to ask

that could be

bribing referees
using dodgy tax schemes
sending bullets through the post to opposing teams managers
beating up your wife when you get beat
chucking pies at fans in the stand below
singing songs about famine / fenian blood etc
using masonic links to exert pressure on governing body

lovely wee club they used to be!

That was the old Rangers, this lots history is only 3 years old.

"Roll up roll up, who's next......ah nice to see you again Mr King and Mr Murray."

Just sit back and watch the comedy unfold at Fawlty Towers inc.

**Velma Dinkley** · 06-03-2015 07:37 PM

So how do The Rangers go forward with a criminal in charge?

**~~Deansy~~** · 06-03-2015 08:25 PM

Thread on their 'mong-media' - 'Any regrets about Ashley'. All posts (so far) talk of MA in the past-tense as if King winning today means Ashley loses !!??

http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=280712

'I'm glad King won but part of me does wonder what Ashley's plans were but unfortunately he was just too stupid to learn the lesson of Newcastle that you need to engage with supporters if you want to be accepted at a football club'

What his plans 'WERE' ??. And (unbelievably) 'too stupid to learn'??.

Definitely some medical-laboratories with empty-jars today as the specimens have slipped out to celebrate the 'return of the King' I think !;

To be fair, if the personal cash he has put into the rangers to help them out with their problems, and to avoid taking substantial loans from Ashley is anything to go by maybe he really doesn't earn any more than £34k a year.

Even now he is making it pretty clear there are "investors" - doesn't sound like his cash is up front and at risk. More of the same from the club that keep on giving

Swap King for Green and Whyte on the submission to the SFA?

Tombstone

- If the fat and protestant person test fails, could Barry be a double?

At least until Daves millions flow through, the Nomad is appointed, they are listed on the stockmarket again, Dave meets the UK company law standard, Ashley releases his charge etc............

**Springbank** · 07-03-2015 12:33 AM

I think I've solved the mystery

Dave King's wealth exists, it's only "off the radar wealth"

A bit like Motherwell-born billionaire Craig Whyte's wealth was off the radar...

That is some disgusting ****

**truehibernian** · 07-03-2015 07:27 AM

I'd be laughing apples all week if Cowdenbeath pulled off the shock of all shocks and beat them today - I liked the national Beeb news though, they were almost mocking when they concentrated more on his tax offences rather than the taking over !

They'll always be a disgusting club no matter who is at the helm.
