The SFA's f &p test is the least of King's worries It is a criminal offence for a director of a liquidated company (ie Rangers) to try to become a director of a similar named company (ie The Rangers), within a 5 year period. Punishments include jail time

So why is King trying to do exactly that? Does he think he is above the law? I''m no expert on all of this The Rangers boardroom saga, but stuff like this just isn't making any sense to me.

Maybe someone who knows more about this can clarify?

Andy Goram spouting the usual pish. For the sake of Scottish football you have to let Dave King in. Has anyone asked the rest of Scottish football coz I'm sure we would say stuff The Rangers

If(when) we stuff them once more this season do we not get to keep them?

He has previous, of course, of riding over the law.

I suspect that he has taken advice on the possible implications and decided that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Being pedantic, "trying to be" is not an offence. "Being" is.

So, if the 3 bears vote King and Murray onto the board, as directors, who does the time ?

King and Murray will have broken the law, so it's their offence.

It just seems (to me anyway) to be a bit crazy to risk getting the jail as a previous poster mentioned could potentially happen. That's a pretty big disadvantage IMHO.

It's a risk, but my guess is that it would be a heavy fine, and an order to come off the Board.

Support for Dave King’s resolutions now at 48.758%
This is not an exact science but at the moment he was arrived at the figure of 48.758% - but crucially this does not include either the shares of River & Mercantile or those fans who have not yet proxied their shares through fan groups.Some of those may not vote or vote in favour of the current regime.So, whilst some are already celebrating we need to keep the pressure on.

'So, whilst some are already celebrating we need to keep the pressure on' -

You have to laugh at them. Who or what do they think they are in the grand scheme of things - Govan's answer to 'Gordon Gekko' ?? In what possible way can they 'keep the pressure on' anyone or anything when it comes to the financial-markets ??. Finding-out certain individual's home-address\tel-No.\the schools their kids go to etc is their usual way of 'Persuasion' !. Think all the business\share-talk has some of them them getting mixed-up between 'Suits' and shell-suits !!

Were they both still members of the board when the club went into administration? Or does that not matter.

I agree that they'll wait until the result of the gm is known. They have to be very careful both about this and about King's eligibility to be a director. When the old Rangers went to the Court of Session to get their registration ban overturned they succeeded because the SFA hadn't followed its own procedures correctly. Repeating that mistake would be costly as I'm sure either Ashley or King would be prepared to go to court if their plans are thwarted. Whatever decision is reached must at least be totally in line with SFA and SPFL rules.

In addition, I wouldn't be surprised if either Ashley and King takes legal action against the other before long. The entertainment won't be over by Friday.

[Lucius Apuleius]

And yet I was told last night by a hub, usually intelligent, that everything well be okay after the meeting on Friday as they would have50 million to spend on players. Lessons learned? Don't think so. Stupid thing was five minutes later he said he would prefer them not to be promoted this season. Weird people.

I get a mental image of The Three Wise(?) Monkeys here.


He has two Directors on the Board and the option to appoint another two. How can he possibly not be considered as having an influence?

'Buying Players/Success' IS the only way these s*um can compete !! The infamous 'Rangers Way' !!. Buying success is so deeply ingrained in them now, they're unable to contemplate being successful the 'Football Way'. Of course, maybe some of them remember, that before Lawrence Marlborough came along, a Rangers with no money were crap and won very little. Wonder if they will ever realise that there's no money to be made in Scottish Football and if they go back to the 'Rangers Way', eventually the money WILL run out and they're back to square-one ??

However, personally, I hope this disgusting, blight-on-society soon dies an extremely painful-death, before another crook comes along to benefit from it !!

The lying King seems pretty confident.

He claims that because he can serve as a director in S A . he should be allowed to do the same here.

Is his difficulties more to do with the fact he can't serve on a board of a company called Rangers and our SFA are meant to have certain standards for Club directors.

Am I right in thinking there would be nothing to stop King becoming the director of Buckfast retailer or similar company.

He talks about the costs of the GM, and how they might be avoided.

I would have thought that the majority of those costs have been incurred already. The printing, the postage, the security, will all have to be paid for.

DK is playing with fire here.

MA has two days to conduct business before Friday is here and I wouldn't put it past him playing an ace or two that DK etc have no clue about. The soap opera isn't anywhere near over yet.

Is it correct that the two incumbents on the board were 'not' placed by MA and thus he has the option to put two people on the board? If he was to do this before Fri, then they would be exempt from any EGM - as stated elsewhere on this thread.

I think this is DK tyring to put the pressure on rather than anything else.

[southsider]

King is playing hardball and with the mutants on his side he thinks he is home and dry. The SFA may well be swayed but rest assured the Law Courts will not be. King and Murray cannot be directors as it is illegal for them to be. May appoint a couple of patsy's. Brown and Goram ?????

The language and wording of that email is embarassing and highlights Kings ego at play, the man is clearly another in the same mould as Whyte or Green and ego is clearly bigger than his business acumen as proven in the SA law courts.

Ashley will run rings around them if he chooses to do so especially with emails like that being sent out by King.

Is the only reason they are supporting King and co in this being that they are Rangers minded? Hardly a recipe for success recently ;-)

If I was a hun, god help me, i would rather Ashley and his team kept reducing costs and making the whole business viable again, but they cant see that and want them back u giving Sellick a bloody nose whatever the cost, its foolish and will end in disaster!
