Charles Green spoke for 40 minutes on Saturday's in the members lounge at Ibrox; here are some of his comments. 1 - He met with Sky last week and refuses to sign up to the new sky deal which ends in two years! 2 - Rangers only receive approx 700k from TV money at present. 3 - All footballing debt have been paid apart from the 31k to Dundee Utd which he has a letter confirming would be paid by the SPL. 4 - They have agreed a fee of £ 1.3 million with Lloyds for the purchase of the Albion car park therefore canceling the lease which ran till 2025 at over 300k a year. 5 - The management team are currently looking at a list of players who will be out of contract next summer but would be available as free agents from Sept 1st 2013, CG plans to sign them up on a pre contract agreements next year. 6 - Rangers owed hearts the remainder of the Lee Wallace fee, Hearts were so desperate for the money eventually offering a 100k discount if we paid the cash two weeks ago. Thatâs why they couldn't pay the wages. 7 - Projected turnover for this year is 20 million. Next year 40 million. 8 - Share issue prospectus to be made public in a 21 page document end of this coming week or just after. 9 - Over 20 pension fund groups have an interest in the share issue. Corporate road show to start this week re share issue Glasgow, Edinburgh and then London for seven days. 10 - He once again stated that we have no debts and are cash rich at the moment and expecting to make a 6 million profit from the retail arm now JJB are out the way. 11 - Hinted at League reconstruction being masterminded by the SFL not the SPL as he predicts the SPL will go bust without the Sky deal which he refused to sign. 12 - Soon to be another bust up with SPL over Rangers TV broadcasts. Doncaster says we need their permission which will undoubtedly mean money to those cnuts. 13 - CG stated he thinks SFA will declare him not a fit and proper person to be CEO of Rangers because of his constant war with them. 14 - CG insists there is a potential to make a 100% profit on shares for all new share holders. 15 - SFA and SFL not interested in stripping of titles only the ******** at the SPL pushing for it. He will fight it all the way. 16 - He is considering taking legal action against the SPL and SFA over the agreement to allow us a License to continue playing football. Decision was taken under duress he says at 9.30pm before Brechin game
The lack of progress on this front is worrying. Still, I've heard that he's arranged for paratroops to abseil into the stadium with the match ball for the next home game. Good stuff
