A London hotel will be the venue for the EGM, with the cost of the process amounting to £200,000

Money well spent, I'd say.

Nigel Farage delighted to be appointed Chairman of Rangers...

I dunno, he's a racist, sure, but is he bigoted enough for the job?

So now King has got his EGM (despite reports to the contrary) and its a reported cost of £200,000 - who (is supposed to) pays for that.

What this year has shown is that ultimately it can all come down to the football.

It's pretty difficult for The Jonny Hun to sing his proscribed party songs at 0-4 to Hibs with half an hour to play

They were humiliated that day and you sensed they were a downtrodden support struggling to come to terms with what was happening to them .But against Celtic they were outsinging them and the full Sectarian Repitoire got an airing ,and both Clubs got paid handsomely for producing an anti climax of a game . Is this really what we want to be beaming around the World . although any neutral watching would of switched it off after a while if it was a football game they were looking to watch .

Stock Exchange statement on the Meeting.

Love the bit where it suggest King could be faced with jail time under section 216 of companies act if he is appointed director of the Rangers Football Club without prior court clearance.

Their NOMAD , W H Ireland says they will resign with immediate effect if the meeting vote goes in favour of King and Co.

Yeah, and King counters by saying that they won't need to resign, because he'll sack them!

***grunt*** · 08-02-2015 06:21 PM

So what is this about, then?

IT is regrettable that the Board of Rangers Football Club were not in attendance at today's important Scottish Cup tie against Raith Rovers.

Given the events over the past few days and after advice from the Club, the decision was made not to attend the game.

The Board has a duty of care to the fans, staff and stewards to ensure safety at the ground at all times and they believe this was the correct decision.

Those 8000 The Rangers supporters looked really angry though

***Bishop Hibee*** · 08-02-2015 07:46 PM

Has Ashley actually watched a game since he took defacto control of the club? He's doing a great job so far.

How are the Newcastle rangers black and white striped ones doing on the rangers website? I cant find them.

The Mike Ashley fun masks don't seem to be there either. Maybe holding back for a big marketing campaign before the Cup Final?

I was at that hotel last week (work conference). It's not huge and it's in Kensington. Imagine.....Made in Chelsea vs we are the people!!!!

You can almost hear the sense of relief from the people that livein that area!!

**~~Sergey~~** · 09-02-2015 08:10 PM

I'm doing some work within the London hotel industry at the moment and Sevco are going to find it tough in securing a venue. Even although it's a cut-throat industry, the industry talks and establishments will know that this is a gig that is a no-no from the off.

Choosing the Millennium at Gloucester Road was a shocking choice. The hotel has to consider their guests who are paying top dollar for their rooms. If it turns into a media circus, which it will, then the hotel simply has to say nope and walk away.

I'd imagine that their EGM will be held at some venue attached to a hotel in London Docklands where residents and neighbours are few.
