    billyg got a reaction from dancindan in US Based Bidder Revealed   
    At least one of the current board/consortium is likely to stay on the BOD , possibly as chairman , after the US buy-out , if it happens , so I'm quite looking forward to see what develops !

    I'm sure none of us want to see people lose their jobs as a direct result of this Rangers 'situation' - but that may happen. This may sound harsh - but that prospect simply is not a reason to brush the reasons Rangers got into trouble under the carpet. We are talking about over a decade of financial doping and cheating. A prima facie case of illegal double contracts. Offences just short of match fixing. Previous owners under crminal investigation. Administrators under investigation. Threats made to SFA officials and other club's property due to comments made by Rangers manager. Rangers club ambassador marching to Hampden (OUR national stadium), and announcing that Rangers won't forget those who 'wronged them'. They took the SFA to court. They deliberately witheld paying tax and PAYE. They made zero compulsory redundancies despite needing to save one million pounds per month. They attempted to sign Daniel Cousin at 5k-7.5k per week, while their tea ladies, ticket office staff, cleaners etc were under threat of losing their jobs. Their current owner has who exactly as investors?.....
    The fact anyone is even talking about what can be done 'save Rangers' is disgusting. Aside from the fact of course we aren't even 'saving Rangers'. We are discussing a newco club attempting to start up. Unbelievable. The lack of clear leadership and decision making from both the SPL and SFA is frightening. Any other club and the bullet between the eyes would have been administered weeks and weeks ago - no way would we still be going through this sordid charade.

    I expect it will be very busy. I've never known anything like this in all my days as a football supporter. Difficult to make sense of things any more, although it should be simple.
    SPL member club enters administration. SPL member club is liquidated. New owner attempts to start afresh and applies for the vacant slot in Div 3.
    Boosh. Job done.

    Sale of club postponed ? But I thought there was an announcement by the consortium saying that "one way or another the club will be in new hands by August " ? Or was that more scaremongering or fibs or just nonsense , to get us to part with the dough ?

    What I don't get ! Our BOD and 10000 hours being ultra cautious as to the outcome of the RFC fiasco , yet a comparible club , like the Fakes , coming out publicly this morning and saying no to a newco yet they're close to making "several" new signings. It is fairly obvious that there will be no RFC in the SPL next season , so where does this situation leave us as a club , because if there's no more investment in the playing side we are in big trouble ?

    Yet other similar clubs voting no to a newco and still investing in the playing side! Think we have a severe case of financial self preservation amongst the current BOD ! We seem to be the only prophets of doom in the SPL and I'm not liking it !

    No to Newco.
    It has gotten to the stage where I would rather we had to go into Admin (as scaremongered by 10000 Maniacs) than let that lot back into the SPL to continue the financial doping that has become their stock in trade.
    We could liquidate and come back in SFL3 or the juniors. Scaremongering doesn't work for me, sorry Gordon (or Richard).
