RIFC - Business matters.

Official announcement of the appointment of Mike Ashley's protege, Derek Llambias, as CEO.

Rangers FC - Appointment of Chief Executive Officer (RNS Number : 2514A) 19 December 2014

Mike Ashley saying : 'Up Yours, SFA !'.

 

rangers won't last another year

need to bleed the ****s dry

 

He may simply be testing their resolve prior to buyin shares in an internal issue.

Imo he may well be tying up loose ends on contracts to make them liquidation proof. He then cocoons RR till a new entity emerges, which would have to use the badges and crests and name to be credible to fans.

 

Rangers' AGM today, Monday, 22/12/2014.

Rangers FC - AGM Statement (RNS Number : 4108A) 22 December 2014

From David Somers' statement to the AGM :

"there was a lack of appetite from shareholders to invest significant extra funds just to pay wages and utility bills."

Damn right, that is revenue expenditure, which must always be funded from income, not continual investment !!!

 

.

 

I am not going to bother posting the stories on SSN (and others) regarding the AGM, it has been on the news all day.

This is how the voting went : Rangers FC - Result of AGM - 22/12/2014

 

SFA and Ashley shareholding, 24/12/2014 : Rangers FC - Club Statement

The Board of Rangers Football Club are very disappointed with the SFA's decision and we will now consider all our options.

The SFA has 'unanimously' rejected Rangers' request to let Mike Ashley increase his shareholding to 29.9%.

 

Lewis Macleod has passed his medical and will be going to Brentford, I thank him for his services to Rangers and wish him Good Luck in his career. This is a footballing move from Brentford (David Weir), but a financial one from Rangers.
I hope Dave King and the boycotters are happy tonight.

Skysports - Brentford set to sign Lewis Macleod from Rangers

 

Absolutely disgraceful, but there are others who are far more culpable than Dave King and the non-attenders.

 

People are blaming non-attenders for the crisis at the club? Really?

 

Official and per SSN just now, Lewis Macleod will be at Brentford until summer 2018.

Rangers FC - Club Statement

Rangers Football Club can today confirm Lewis Macleod will sign for Brentford for an undisclosed fee.

This is subject to International clearance being received when the transfer window opens on 3 January 2015.

 

Copy this to here, from the '3 Bears buy out Laxey' thread, 'for the record'.

STV - 'Three Bears' consortium become biggest shareholders in Rangers

 

I think Larry was just posting his personal opinion Gus. Surely even the Easdales and friends would not be as stupid as to blame the fans for selling our best player.

My disgraceful comment was about the sale of the player not the boycott. It's the final straw as far as I'm concerned. The only tiny iota of hope that might have come out of the fiasco our cub has become was (for me) bringing through the young players. They couldn't even do that. McCoist populated his teams with aging dross and mediocre foreign players. I had to laugh when Kenny McDowell commented on the sale of McLeod saying it would give all the other great youngsters a shot. Maybe we can replace Lewis with Charlie Telfer?

Despite all this Happy New Year to everyone on here.

 

Official. The sale of Lewis Macleod to Brentford was for financial reasons.

Rangers FC - NOTIFICATION OF MAJOR INTEREST IN SHARES (RNS Number : 1616B) 02 January 2015

 

By **** Larry you really need a big slice of time to get your head out your arse cake. How the **** do you
come to the conclusion that the Rangers fans are in anyway responsible for the sale of the clubs best playing asset at a bargain basement price?

The fans(including myself) are staying away because they refuse to bankroll a board who are not fit for ourpose. Selling one of the brightest talents in Scottish football on the first day of the transfer window for buttons is testament to the fact the ****s haven't got a clue.

They are now at desperation stages and unless Dave King and/or Dougie Park manage to gain control of the club we are only going the one way.

Out the game.

To me, that scenario is preferable to giving the shysters in charge at Ibrox one single penny more.

This state of the club Is purely down to the total mismanagement it has been under for the last ten years (at least) and has nothing to do with the fans who have had to resort to the only power they wield.

The power to withhold their cash.

 

All football clubs base their budgets on income streams, critcally ST sales. In his bid to take over Rangers, Dave King has instigated boycotts, leading to a severe reduction in ST sales, i.e., income.

Today, 02/01/2015, Dave King finally gets it ...
... to gain influence, you have to put your money where your mouth is.

Point completely missed ^^^^^^

Dave King didn't instigate boycotts. The revolving door of ****s lining their own pockets whilst making an arse of the club and it's fans are the reasons Ibrox is empty.
