Just had a mate tell me that he saw on tw***er that a rangers director, Malcolm Murray, has asked for a meeting with Mr Desmond. If true, and apparently the source is "impeccable", I wonder what it might be about? If true I wonder if chuckie will tell the peepul about it? Personally I don't see any benefit in it to us and would not let the buffoon green in the door. . . green jhedi

I think they are scared they are going to be left behind and will struggle to see the dust by the time they make it back into the SPL. Celtic are going to be so far out in front with revenue that they might never get close again.

Jungle Bhoy.

Why would they meet? With how they insult us and drag our name out in everything they do to keep that hate brewing in thier fans we shouldn't even take a call. But maybe they are looking for advice on how to run a club lol. Still don't see why they would meet gj

On my original post, it seems rumours abound that Murray and Green are far from best pals. Maybe a power struggle (poss Blue knights?) with Murray not to happy with Greens antics? That seems to be the gossip, and Murray has been pretty much silent since being appointed. I just can't see a way it ties with Mr Desmond. . . . green jhedi

Perhaps they want Celtic to officially recognise them as the same club and part of old firm? Which wouldn't happen.
Perhaps they want two games between us one at Celtic park one at Ibrox? Because they need the money.
Perhaps he wants to negotiate the money they owe?
I think its the first one.

Maybe the are trying to flog us murray park for our reserves

From what I seen GJ, its just to build a relationship.

At least someone at Rangers is trying to move on I suppose ~ Mrs E

Why not take a call?
This guy is Sevco chairman isn't he? Why can't he talk to the Celtic chairman, the whisky guy? Why would he wish to bypass the board? Because he knows the board would fobb him off.

Perhaps, as usual, they get pre told the Nimmo smith findings. Title stripping and new club. So his deal is Celtic recognise them as same club. They drop 5 titles and we gain 5 titles making us even. Problem is they are dead and now zombies.

Maybe if Rangers loose their titles green is offering to buy them back?

I think its selling MP. Nobody can use it for anything but football training. We are cash rich, they cannot afford to run it. They need the money. We are the only club in Scotland who could buy and operate it. Green said it might need to go months ago. They can only sell it to Celtic.

Maybe he is doing a CW and flogging off some seats based on the potential cash revenue from OF games in 3 years time!

To deflect attention from the unpaid Orlit invoices, and what services deserved such sums, El Chico Glinty released the Juve sensationalist nonsense.
But the cold truth is Rangers have debts; footballing debts, business debts and tax debts, regardless of the lies. They are now not paying invoices. That's what Craig Whyte did before old Rangers sunk into admin.
Deady Bears should be very worried. All their season ticket money and share money paid but this déjà vous is rolling out.

I think it's spooky the way their fans, most of them, are behaving with regards to Green. It would appear his playing to the gallery tactic has worked like a charm. After the shambles of Agent Whyte's regime you might have thought they would be on their guard. Since buying the assets of the defunct club what has he done? It would appear that the assets were purchased using investor cash, this will have to be repaid with interest of course, in a move very similar to Agent Whyte's Ticketus deal. Buy a season book and you can re-name Murray park. Not happened. Adidas will be the kit suppliers. Not happened. Dallas Cowboys will be commercial partners. Not happened. Shirt sponsorship will be announced. Not happened. During these fiascos he has also tried to punt advertising space on the roof of Murray park and is begging for stadium re-naming. I ask again why do the fans trust him? Oh, he gave them the share issue. A share issue clouded in a lack of transparency, and no one seems to know who the investors are. To cap it all he buys his own shares for 1p, but the RST pay 70p for theirs, what a man of the people eh? Add his near £500k salary package and it certainly is a good deal for chuckie. . . . green jhedi

7,000 percent mark up.

Who's doing who the favour?
Green and his investors are hard nosed business corporate monsters who need better than 8% returns on investment. They do not support Rangers.
The USA business experts at Forbes magazine have stated radical cost restructuring was needed. It didn't happen. Dave King said it costs more to run than income, requiring a benevolent multi millionaire to plough money in with no returns.
