Daily record saying they're about to become part of the US led 49ers group.Quote:

New name will be the Rangers 2012ers.
Can’t help but feel the timing of this story is very convenient.
Large share issues, manager in deep trouble, miles behind Celtic in and off the field……but here comes the American billionaires to make us super rich…..but first buy the shares you gullible hordes.
Although as I’m typing this, maybe the share issue is for the Americans?? Hope not

The shares have already been issued. £360k.Quote:

I'm actually surprised that there hasn't been US interest in a club that qualifies for Europe before now
Surely they can’t buy Rangers, if they own Leeds
It's either they're doing what we've done with BKFC or Rangers have a good idea that the rules will be changed for them. Both seem as likely as each other at this point in time.Quote:

Back in their liquidation days there was some interest in buying the assets but I seem to recall threats being made by the True Blue fraternity that only owners that suited them would be allowed.Quote:

Pretty sure the average hun will welcome Saint Francis's 49ers.Quote:

It's interesting, are times about to change on ownership in Scotland. I doubt the USA invasion will be stoppedQuote:

Well they’ve already got a chairman called Paddy. It’s just another small step towards binning their sectarian nonsense… surely 🤭Quote:

DR usually crap “major cash injection which would then fund a spending splurge in the summer”
“War chest” and “financial money men” and next no doubt🤣🤣🤣

BBC News - Rangers takeover involving 49ers could be completed by June

Which if true, presumably paves the way for a Black Knights takeover of Hibs?
Cheers for that.Quote:

Would that be the SFA changing the rules to suit Rangers?Quote:

If not, it seems mental to me they’d openly change the rules for the huns.
Makes me boak that we could do that only after changing rules to suit that sickening lotQuote:

SF 49ers are lot older than The Rangers.

I'm interested in the unnamed investor... for if the rules do not get changed then this person is keyQuote:

My first reaction when I read this yesterday was that it was another bout of pre-season ticket sales guff. Hopefully it is, I want to see those ***** bankrupt and gone in my lifetime.
If the report I read is correct the Yanks will buy shares from existing shareholders. While this may trigger a run for the door by a few relieved people it’ll give Rangers zilch.
Guess I'll not be spending any money going to see the 49ers next time I'm out in the Bay Area next time I'm out that way with work then! :greengrin
I’ve got (good) bottles of wine older than The RangersQuote:

They have one real competitor (albeit one that is significantly better and bigger than them and have been for the best part of 20 years).
