Populist instigators without a plan

739

Loved the statement issued by the ‘3 Bears’ last night.  They protest that their offer to Rangers International was superior to the offer from Sports Direct, which was accepted.  What the sharp-eyed PR wizard didn’t figure when delivering the statement, though, is:

The board need 75% shareholder permission to dis-apply shareholder pre-emptive rights and create sufficient shares to allow the 3 Bears to fund their proposed share issue.

Support of the Easdale proxy block is needed to pass this dis-application.

Knowing they needed Easdale support, when the board asked if they would drop the EGM resolution to remove James Easdale from the board in order to make their proposal viable, the 3 Bears declined.

Consider the conversation:

A. “We’ll fund a share issue.”

B. “That needs Jimmy’s agreement.  Will you drop your plans to sack him?”

A. “No.  We’re still going to sack him.”

B. “Can’t do, Jimmy’s not going to vote for that.”

A. “It’s all your fault for not accepting our perfectly well thought-out proposal.”

It’s astonishing how shoddy an operation these clowns have.  I know no one in the media will explain the reality to fans, nor will they believe anything they read here.  When populist instigators for change have no viable plan, a club is deader than Rangers (mark I).

    Evening from Costa Teguise, Lanzarote where we have had a daytime high of 21C :D

     

     

    To the site maintenance people – I have had probs getting on through wifi but can get on through 3G on iPhone, noticed somebody earlier saying similar

     

     

    I see from today’s BBC that yesterdays Scotsman quotes Dalglish thinking we all must think like psychopaths.

    Complete fud of a man – “K*** K**** club legend” my hin’end.

     

     

    Spent 6 years playing for Celtic with the last 2 under sufferance scratching at the door to get away.

     

     

    Took Murray’s shilling.

     

     

    Inflicted Barnes on us.

     

     

    Aye, club legend right enough.

    Anything published by Dick Wilson on the BBC should be treated with the utmost suspicion if not downright contempt.

     

     

    The archetypal hurting Hun.

     

     

    I would imagine our host Mr Brennan and P Mac Giolla Bhain to be more accurate re all things Bosch.

    Quick quiz question.

     

    What pop song of the time was played at CP every game from Dec 66 to May 67.

     

    Just heard it and brought back great memories of the glory season

  17. Drambowiecelt.

     

     

    Nice wan.. Pal..

     

     

    Yes.. the best thing that evah happened tae Me..

  18. Sticks in my mind. I think it’s been a quiz question before. Along with the number 1 when we won the big cup… Silence is golden.

  19. The entire sordid affair over Sevco in a odd way gives me hope for the future of the planet in general.

     

     

    It could be argued that the demise of the cheats is hopefully a microcosm for what is to become the fate of the corrupt international capatalist system.

     

     

    Every despicable move by the world banks that gleefully creates wars and starves women and children by the 100’s of millions every day, hopefully soon will be exposed by internationally minded bampots.

     

     

    I live in hope that we will all come to our senses and stop believing the brain washing being dished out daily by the BBC/CNN cabals.

     

     

    Rant over.

  20. San Diego ….,

     

    Sorry to tell you pal it just got worse, the G20 just told banks that deposits and pensions are now disposable income for the banks.

     

    If a bank now copulates up they will confiscate your deposit to cover the debt.

  21. I’ve got my ticket for Sunday.

     

     

    Must admit I don’t know much about our opposition but I seem to remember their first manager (think his name was Chauncey Gardner) talking about a journey and making friends along the way.

     

     

    With this in mind, I plan to go to one of their pubs before the game, share a few stories about Celtic’s rich history and find out a bit more about their journey over past 3 years and the ambitions for the future.

     

     

    I imagine this gesture will be well received. Might even pop back for a few beers after the game.

     

     

    Any suggestions on the best pub to visit?

  22. When i was a young bhoy going to CP,there was a Glenn Campbell song played every week about 2.30? Wichita Lineman maybe?

  23. One certain bet for Hampden on Sunday –

     

     

    that the Huns will belt out Billy Boys in their thousands and the rookie cops will do nothing.

     

     

    Why would they want to lift their off-duty superiors?
