Thats not true what you've just posted about the loans
They are being turned into equity, ie a % holding, not being 'paid back', they might get it back eventually, if they sell at the right time, but saying it needs paid back at any forthcoming share issue isn't true.
I know nothing about Barry Scott. In saying that, I know next to nothing about Paul Murray either, apart from the fact he had the scuzball Whyte's number from day one.
But when he started calling the scum up here who masquerade as journalists as brave, and that we have to 'build bridges' with people who hate us, then the game was up. For me at any rate.
I don't have a clue what is going on at Ibrox, but the board had better start getting their act together. Three years down the line and it is worse than ever.
People on radio Clyde saying Park going now and his son.
LOL
It’s getting mental
What is it they say nature abhors a vacuum?
I have a feeling there will major board changes especially if this investment rumour comes to fruition.
Whoever it maybe … will surely want their own people controlling or at least having a big say on how we are ran.
Big changes on the way!
Goodbye SR and JT for starters!
Or maybe it is just the way it happened. Allen has come out in the past and said that Martin was not his choice. Neither was DM for manager, and he gave the board a lost the day after Pedro was sacked. Of all our issues atm, as it stands, Allen appears to be doing a good job.
NoWas B S not supposed to be Geirge Letham's eyes & ears
BS and HK investors lent money to get rid of Ashley. It’s perfectly possible he was only on the board as a placeholder for further investment coming in and a UK based director to represent. I don’t think BS ever attended in person.
I'll always be grateful for the part that Paul Murray played in getting Rangers away from the shysters & goons.
Thanks Paul.

This is being falsely reported by sections of the media. It is an attempt to mislead people into believing the soft loans are actually debt which has to be paid back. Peter Martin last night reported that we owe £18m in soft loans which will have to be paid back. Another favourite of the anti-Rangers media is to claim we are ''surviving on loans''. The truth is the soft loans is actually investment from the board. It is the only way anyone could put money into the club over the last 18 months as a share issue was blocked at the 2016 AGM. These soft loans will eventually be converted to shares and no money has to be paid back as some in the media have suggested.
He’s not head of comms, he’s an external media advisor essentially. Honestly, I’ve been a head of comms dealing with announcements of major investment/public purchases and the lawyers write them.
I’m not saying this is one thing or the other, and I don’t particularly care if people slag JT off, but i bet you he has a fairly tough time getting influence into board announcements with all those businessman egos around.
As always then.We know as much as we did on the 1st post.
One of the resolutions passed at the last AGM allows the board to issue shares to anyone they choose.Unless the potential investors offer to underwrite the proposed rights, how would they be able to get money into the plc?
Genuine question as I'm not too clued up on these things.
His title is Director of Comms and Marketing end of.

Don't use twitter or facebook pish and don't know if any truth to this. Was told earlier that Steven Gerrard deal includes Brian Kennedy and Graeme Souness investment. Are we now seeing Paul Murray paving the way for the arrival of The Blue Knights?
Questionable stance you are taking on this.That's all very good but you've conveniently omitted using a finance house to borrow 3 million + seven million pledged from King over the next two seasons. Living like this is unsustainable.

Murray has always been a coordinator and was prepared to get involved with any decent group, from Brian Kennedy to King.
He is a Chartered Accountant and Management Consultant, so brings that to bear.
It is bad corporate governance to have all shareholders and yes men on the Board of a plc. That’s why you want a mix between shareholders, non execs, execs and Independent members. Murray has proven himself to care first and foremost about the club in the past, him going is very concerning.
If anyone should be shifted from the Board “to make space” then I would consider the son of a shareholder who encouraged the disasterous appointment of Pedro to he first in line.
Ok, fair enough.No. What i was saying is there is no rules or set numbers. Nothing more.
Stand corrected on the board attendance. I recall he was part of a group of HK investors who fronted up cash to pay off Ashley. Not sure if the £2m was all his.He put in over £2m cash joined the board a few months ago so he wasn’t a placeholder for anybody. He did attend a board meeting because he was at the match that weekend too.

Traynor is not employed by us, he works for/owns Level5 PR agency.
Some amount of other pish post here, Park leaving, who just became vice chairman? Paul Murray is a cnt of one statement, lets forget all the good he done. Just think if it wasnt for him we'd probably still be under Ashley's thumb.
Boards change, the statement is IIRC required by law, they aren't going to go into a lot of details.
My take, we are preparing for the next challenge, probably a bit late but it is what it is, manager gone, new manager to be announced soon, board members gone, new ones to be announced soon.
Too much negativity for no reason.

Anyway, I think it's fair to say he was a less influential board member. The statement explicitly says the board knew they had his support so that seems quite a confident thing to say if you've just sh*tcanned the dude
What statement been out all afternoon any changes ? I know Murray and Douglas have gone
One of the worst yet.I'm not gonna lie guys but I am absolutely shitting myself plus i may be reading to much into it but Gerrard looks pissed off in the studio tonight compared to last night,need some reassurance everything is gonna be all good

You honestly telling me you not worried?One of the worst yet.
Gerrard is probably just nervous as %^*& for Liverpool to be honest mate.I'm not gonna lie guys but I am absolutely shitting myself plus i may be reading to much into it but Gerrard looks pissed off in the studio tonight compared to last night,need some reassurance everything is gonna be all good

Not at all, I agree with what he's saying but you can't avoid the issue of us living on soft loans and loans from a finance house as a way to continue business, as I said it's unsustainable.
As I asked earlier it's maybe just coincidental and bad timing but I'm wondering why no one is concerned about it being possibly linked to Kings court case yesterday

As I said mate I may just be reading to much into it but what we have been through in the last 6 years nothing would surprise meGerrard is probably just nervous as %^*& for Liverpool to be honest mate.
Totally understandable, I’m the same you second guess absolutely everything with us at the momentAs I said mate I may just be reading to much into it but what we have been through in the last 6 years nothing would surprise me
What exactly has Paul Murray co-ordinated? What he done - and let me be clear, I am appreciative of his efforts - was put himself forward as a face and voice of Dave King.
What is indisputable is that Paul Murray enjoys the limelight and soaked up the opportunity to take on that role.
Let’s put to bed the myth of any one Director, you elude to the ‘son of a Director’ which is in itself offensive, ‘encouraging’ the appointment of Pedro Caixinha. He was part of a shortlist put forward and the appointment was the responsibility of the Board, a Board which included Paul Murray who voted in favour of the appointment. IF Paul Murray, or anyone else in the Board, disputes this then they should have the balls to call out The Chairman as a liar for his statement at the AGM which made the process crystal clear.
