Don’t ask question you don’t know the answer to

673

‘Don’t ask question you don’t know the answer to’; great advice.  Mike Ashley will know the questions he’s proposed for Rangers International.  All the bluster around the company failing to get a Nomad due to the litany of complaints submitted to AIM under the old regime will be laid bare.  Allegations of blame made in haste will be revisited in detail.  It was an act of outrageous folly to attempt to play poker with a billionaire.

It is perfectly possible that Ashley will get his £5m loan repaid, the assets connected to it are so enormous, we should assume the money will be found.  I hope it is.  I hope the new regime gain all of their assets back from Ashley as soon as possible.

Ashley is one of the last men I would want owning my football club, but he is vastly more capable than those currently in notional charge.

The Machiavellian method – get the board to vote to return your money, or watch them vote to keep you on-side, is a thing of beauty.

Good luck to King, I hope he has the money and wins as much control as he needs.

    Has the SPFL actually quoted a figure for their new sponsorship, or is it an ‘equivalent value’ ?

  2. Jonny the Tim 2306 on 12 May

     

    Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out. HH

  3. As I said listening to Snyde and on comes Frank McGarvie to talk about his 85 shirt auction that Paul67 informed us about.

     

     

    Very humble. You could hear the emotion in his voice when talking about the Utd game. He was trying- but not too well- to talk about the charitable ethos of the club and why it was set-up. He did his best. Which is what I always thought he did at Celtic.

     

     

    Bid currently at £1750.

     

     

    Well done Frank.

     

     

    Oh and he says he will take the winning bidder oot for dinner!

    He’s on Sportsound on RS right now. Definitely said that.

     

    Obviously couldn’t have been “Rangers”, as they were debt-free at the time.

     

    Wonder if the new deal has any “clauses”, like the old TV deal…?

     

     

    He said on Snyde, there are no Sevco clauses in the Ladbrokes deal, I don’t believe most of what he says………

    Thanks, but that backs up my point , the key words are

    Which FA Trophy and Conference League double winner, plied their trade on the hallowed turf of Paradise.

  8. If there is a Sevco Clause, they’ll think Christmas has come early. (Not a bus reference, by the way).

  9. Looks like Mike Ashley’s calling for an EGM so he can ‘panic’ some more and beg Ra Peepil for forgiveness and take his place at the back of their fantastical metaphorical bus so he can feel part of their ‘journey’…

     

     

    …their Tragical Misery Tour.

     

     

    Aye, sure he is, Cleetus.

     

     

    Right now the Huns are actually living the Hollywood dream – they are in Deliverance, they are Ned Beatty, and they are about to be told to squeal like a pig.

     

     

    Tonight – The boy ‘O’ first scorer, Madrid 4-0, James Rodriguez hat-trick.

     

     

    66/1 & 80/1.

     

     

    Last night, Barca. Tonight, Madrid…

     

     

    Barcelona, Real Madrid? Who the f### are they trying to kid? They don’t make teams like Celtic any more… etc, etc. ;))

    That’s interesting – cheers. The timing does seem a bit coincidental, but maybe it genuinely is this time!

     

    It’s not like they give us cause to be suspicious mind you!

  15. Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on

    Art of War, Ginger and South of Tunis, Owen Paul’s brother, Brian sits a few rows behind me in the South Stand.

     

     

    I believe Brian was Simple Minds’ first drummer and chucked it before they made it big.

     

     

    Terrible Radio One DJ , Peter Powell, was Owen Paul’s manager and was his favourite waste of time.

     

     

    I have my jaiket on and heading out the door as I post.
