If for some reason the offer was accepted, a lot of the new money will disappear in covering this season's losses, so there's not as much new investment as it sounds at first glance. In addition, wouldn't the new controlling group have to offer to buy all other shares at the same price? That would mean more millions going to faceless institutions rather than into the club.
I think this offer's either designed to be rejected to give King PR as the man who tried to save the club, or it's an initial stance for further negotiations. I can't see it happening as reported.

In most cases, it's the money they would lose but there's also 'the battle of the egos' in play here as well. The Easdales, for instance, would go back to having no influence at all in The Rangers and would have to return to their main business... of burning other people's buses.

Stanard post disclaimer out the way, here it be:
1) "the" rangers of first division championship fame and trading for a few years in the lower reaches of Scottish football appear to have continued to pay their players, management and staff salaries not comensurate to their "level" in the pecking order of the footballing world...
2) This means they have taken out more than they are likely to have taken in
3) One cannot magic money from nowhere unless one adopts the Yamathematical model
4) Therefore, they are hopefully royally screwed <<< I picked these words with much due care and attention :greengrin
...and now I off to converse with the Almighty to improve our chances/only hope of ascension back to the top tier in Scotland, the brucie bonus being the permanent and repeated demise of "the" rangers.
I bid thee, Good Day :aok:
ENDOF
If i could give one i would.
But i dont give a F*** about anything that outfit say, do or anything else.
Honestly?Quote:

Even aside from the fun of watching it, that part could well benefit Hibs.
p.s. You care so little that you took the time to post on here telling us just that :wink:
No agreement with King and Newco.
What does this mean now ?

Sounds like there's still the possibility of it happening. Surely administration again is the alternative?Quote:

Them going to admin would go a fair way to gifting hearts the title imo.
Interesting that it is described as 'a meeting'. Easdale was so interested that they only spoke by phone on the day King left.Quote:

I'm not discounting the possibility that Dave King is a fantasist.Quote:

Where's Brian Kennedy? Is it time for Mr Quantum to put his 'consortium' back together?
Must admit I thought King got most of his money back that he had invested in the old club and lost nothing like to £20m reported. Can anyone back me up on this?
I know he wouldn't be a Director but I never ceases to amaze me how convicted fraudsters/tax evaders are allowed to own football clubs.
I wouldn't.Quote:

Seems Mike Ashley has offered emergency loan funds. In return he'll take over day to day running of the club. He's no mug.
Meanwhile, King ask to meet Ashley but didn't even get the courtesy of a reply. There are also certain, ahem, 'compliance' issues to be dealt with. King also complaining that Ashley using his influence as a shareholder to get his own way...
Messy. I think Ashley is going to win this one. He's treating King like a mug.
Brian Kennedy come in with late offer
Now reportedly interested in putting a large cash injection into the Rangers.
Wasn't this the same guy who was willing to plough funds into Hibs not so long ago?

Sounds like turmoil continues at Greyskull. :greengrin I think I might have heard on the news at 6 o'clock that a board meeting was currently taking place.
Did I hear correctly that they could be struggling to meet the November payroll?
Yeah they need cash and quick, they will take a loan from Ashley on really bad terms. Happy days :)
So, possibly sinking deeper into the brown stuff? I wonder what the chances of administration are here?Quote:

According to SSN, even if they take the loan from Ashley, it will only give them enough cash to get them through til April
aye its gid eh 😉Quote:
