Bizarre interview with King in the Scotsman
http://www.scotsman.com/sport/footba...king-1-3780172
This bit in particular, about Ashley's call for a General meeting regarding his loan
Isn't that how him and his pals got into power?Quote:
The general meeting is a bit of a nonsense because the shareholders can’t tell the board how to behave
The shareholders own the company. They employ the board. Of course they can tell them how to behave.Quote:

He's also publicly trying to shame McCoist into giving up his well paid gardening leave.
It was Douglas Park that gave them the £1.5m loan I think. As far as I can see the lying King has so far put in the square root of sod all into keeping them going. I hope that he is another in the mould of white and green. And I say well done Ally, a hun prick of the highest order but draining them for cash gets him some praise from meQuote:

I know king is likely non resident, but does anyone know of he claims to be non domiciled in the UK?
That worked well for them then - I'm not sure of Aberdeen's agenda but it was a glorious opportunity to break the OF monopoly and yet they still control Scottish football.Quote:

'How many clubs in the world don’t have debt? Our balance sheet is incredibly strong for any football club in the world' - are the Huns and the 'Charity Thieves' using the same scriptwriter to save money ??. Statement is exactly the same as what comes out of the PBS. 2_clubs with so much in common and none of it welcome in decent, honest and civilised society.Quote:

Still waiting for his £50m/£30m/£20m investment (delete according to how recently he said it)
King has now loaned them £1.5m. Or one of his companies has. Let's hope that goes towards the losses incurred in Div1 next year

Dirty tricks by the SFA to ensure King was F and P.
Seems the SFA Professional Game Board met, discussed and approved Paul Murray as F and P , but when it came to King , the smaller SFA Board took that decision ,excluding a few people from the decision making process.
And, yes our Rod is on both Boards.
The three excluded were from lower leagues, right? Something stinks.......as usual.Quote:

The main SFA board consists of Regan, Ogilvie, McRae, Petrie, Barrie Jackson, the independent non-executive director, Peter Lawwell, Ralph Topping and Tom Johnston of the Junior FA.
So those removed from the decision were: Duncan Fraser (Aberdeen), Mike Mulraney (Alloa), Sandy Stables (Highland League), Andrew Waddell (Lowland League)

Ashley Vs King next stage.....
http://news.stv.tv/west-central/1321...ley-influence/
I've just picked up from the previous stv article that King is saying he made it clear that his investment was wholly dependant on him being passed as fit and proper by the sfa/spfl..
Is it outwith the bounds of possibility that those decision makers felt there was very real chance of a further collapse into armaggedon if they did not pass him, and felt as a result that they couldn't allow that to come to pass...?

As an alternative to Ashley's motion to repay him his dosh and release the securities held by Sports Direct, the Lying King is proposing a motion that the Rangers Board be instructed to renegotiate all Rangers/Sports Direct contracts.
Roll on the 12th June !
Excuse my ignoranc but if Ashley has a water tight contract can't he just say no?Quote:

I think its just bluff from King, and Ashley will, if no repayments are forthcoming, enforce his claim on the Rangers secured properties.
The shareholders cannot say we " did'nt ken " if they vote against repaying Big Mike.
Amazing. Dave King has all this money to invest yet is trying to avoid repaying Mike Ashley's £5m loan?Quote:

I notice Mccall doesnt mention that there was 10,000 empty seats at Ibrox against us :rolleyes:
To be fair those seats could belong to now defunct fans of the now defunct Glasgow rangers?Quote:
