I was on another site earlier today and they were talking about boycotting tomorrow nights game but one post was asking to fill the stadium tomorrow and at the final whistle nobody to leave the ground and have our protest then, what's your thoughts about that.

Why not! I'm going bought my ticket

Agree0 Disagree0

My take on this for what it's worth and admittedly that is not much by my previous posts but I think Ashley is calling out the 3 bears and king. He knows the response of the fans is exactly as it should be and what most posts on here including mine propose! That also forces the 3b and king to act on behalf of the fans and save our club fro Ashley. Paying him off at a rate over what he is due (sweet fa in my opinion)
Ashley is cleared p$%sed off by the actions of the 3b and king and this is his retribution. He is picking a fight and I only hope king and the 3 bears are ready to deliver a knock out punch!

Up for the boycott tomorrow night!

I can't get why they knocked back the American Sarvar who offered £20 million or so for a complete buy out but accept another loan from Ashley that we won't be able to pay back,this makes me sick to my stomach. someone surely needs to let us know what the long term plan is now because we cannot be repeatedly kept in the dark about all this crap any longer these clowns are destroying our club with no regards to us the fans,I renewed my season ticket for this season because I thought it couldn't get any worse but how wrong was I, I will not be renewing for next season. enough is enough now the spivs are getting no more cash off me I am 40 years old and have been going to inbox since I was about 11and I have never ever seen my club in a state like this. it's a disgrace!

Agree0 Disagree0

Steff it seems to have worked then. As the three bears offer the same loan. Only difference being, the bears say, there loan is to keep Ashley's hands of the stadium.

Agree0 Disagree0

3 Bears will double bluff Cashleys and match his offer. c'mon troops let get behind the saviours of our great and wonderful club. Boycott his sport shops. don't buy from the Rangers shop. THE BATTLE BEGINS NOW.

Agree0 Disagree0

Sadly M. A. is the only show in town. His £3million plus interest is due in April, reports we have 2weeks to try & find cash to meet the bills by then. The 3 bears £6.5 million wouldn't have been enough to pay £3million plus interest at 10℅, running costs, mcoists £750 grand & whatever hidden hounouris contracts that are watertight!! Regarding the boycott the news has travelled fast & maybe at last there will be a united show from all fan groups & supporters standing as one!! The Celtic fans done it in the days before social media & showed who holds the real power, so if we can get our huge fan base together & demo in a peaceful way with no aggression, be passionate about it because if it ends up badly it will be a fuc#i n waste of time & a huge missed opportunity!!

we should all go to the stadium and protest I no a lot people live further away but if we can make it we should be outside I am from outside Edinburgh and I will be going to protest

Agree0 Disagree0

As a Toon fan, can I just say good luck with any protest you make. You need to move heaven and earth to try and stop him. I rue the day he took ownership of the Toon, he has killed all ambition and turned us into a laughing stock.

Agree0 Disagree0

When you think how many Rangers greats have walked up the famous marble stairs, men who gave their life's to the club and men who would have died for Rangers, men like Struth, Waddell, Wallace, Cooper, Jardine and many many more all true blues, all our absent friends who lived to go to Ibrox every other fortnight, what would they do if they were alive today, I'm willing to bet that not one of them would have lay down quietly while outsiders have come in and ripped the heart out of Glasgow Rangers and pissed all over us. It's time now to do whatever it takes to let them know that this is OUR CLUB, OUR FAMILY and there not welcome.

Ok I would like to know why ibrox and Murray park can be used for security if Craig whyte is taking legal action stating he has a claim over them?

Good point?

Whyte has no claim if he did it would pass to ticketus if he did

Whyte can't get any money

The so-called directors of Rangers are acting in their own self-interests even though they shouldn't, though they are doing so with the executive authority they have as directors. In other words they don't have to answer to shareholders or fans for every decision they make. However, these egocentric, greedy, obnoxious people are obviously being dictated to by Ashley, shareholder holding less than 10% of stock. What is he offering them if he wrests control. The earlier poster is right though. The £10m loan might go through but it won't change who owns the company once an EGM has been held. These new owners will simply inherit a debt of around £10m. If King & the 3 Bears have a valid plan it should include long term forecasts for revenue and debt reduction. It is cash flow that kills businesses, not balance sheets.

We've been talking about a mass protest here it is.

"The Union of Fans is sickened by today's news that the board is attempting to mortgage Ibrox and Murray Park to Sports Direct. Put simply, Mr James Easdale, Mr Sandy Easdale and Mr David Somers have lied to fans and shareholders. They have engineered a situation where they are handing the most prized assets of the club to Mike Ashley despite other, better funding offers once again being on the table. Derek Llambias and Barry Leach have been appointed by Mr Ashley to ensure he grabs the remaining assets of the club. Mr Ashley and his board stooges have shown a blatant disregard for the club and the fans. John Brown could not have been more accurate when he described them as "rats".

We have been campaigning for 18 months to try to secure our stadium. It is not yet too late but the only people who can stop this now are the fans and we would ask them to do two things. First of all please come to the ground tomorrow night, 45 minutes before kick-off and stage a mass demonstration at the front door of our Ibrox home. We would ask fans not to enter the game but if they feel they have to, in order to support the team in an important game, then we would ask them to make their feelings known in the strongest possible fashion to the board.

Our strength is in numbers and acting together. It is time for the fans to make their voices heard in the strongest possible terms but we must do so together and we cannot waiver. "

Its time for 3 bears and king to now show there hand and make next move and we should stay away from all games now the thought of that fat cockney fu@@ getting another red cent of our cash makes me sick

Mugged off again by the bus drivers on the board. it's time someone comes out and tell us what the f@#k is going on and where the f@#k we go from here, how can all this go through on a LOAN. where the hell is King and the 3 bears?

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 16:39:21
i despair the way some bears are going on about ashleys loan offer of the £10m the the £3m will be pai back leaving £7m outstanding this will make no difference to the shareholding of the club the 3bs and king if they have sufficient shares will win the day at any e g m that's called if the 3bs win ashleys loan will be repaid its not the out come we want at the minute but the club needs the money of that there is no question but it allows everything to go on till the e g m is past there is no doubt there will be an e g m if there can be no agreement reached but the loan makes no difference to who will eventually will be majority share holders because who ever own club will have to pay it back

Believable0 Unbelievable0

BIGWULL, At last I am in 100% agreement with you. Yes, not the ideal way but the key to the future is board control. Get through this season and then, with the right board, clear the rubbish and put together a business plan together to get us on an even keel and start building a team for the future.
We must forget the past and deal with things as they are.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 17:12:22
The only thing I'm happy about regarding this loan is that I suppose it puts the question of the deeds to bed,I think.
Would Ashley lend the dough if the deeds weren't above board?I suppose what you say makes sense Bigwull when the initial anger wears off.If Park etc want control then they pay Ashley his 7 mill,they were putting up 6.5 anyway It seems?

Agree0 Disagree0

Not so I believe, as the fat one will want rental fees in excess of millions per season, as he will if done legitimately own ibrox and Murray park, hope I, m wrong in that score

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree we need urgent funds but why only Ashley? Plenty other offers out there with less risk to securities however board won't even look at them, Why not? The board told us Ibrox and MP would never be given as securities whilst knowing this was the plan.

I believe this is also a ploy to put pressure on SFA to allow Ashley to up his control stakes in return for him supposedly saving the club from financial meltdown.

Agree0 Disagree0

Billy b that's right does no matter who provides the loan its the outcome but the boycott must end because all its doing is playing into ashleys hands and besides I still think we can go up this season but everybody must get behind team and common sense should tell bears king and 3bs never spent the amount of money they have to get beat

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 18:16:07
so what happens if 3 bears king ect do not win a agm they where going put 5 million up front for a loan so it going cost a extra 2 million on top of what they wanted to offer u say the club needs money simple take 3 bears offer or should have tain saver offer the loan makes a big difference if they default on loans lock stock and barrel Ashley gets ibrox Murray park along with retail advertising ect
to get all this back off him will cost millions think folk are still sleeping when looking at this latest development we are goosed if 3 bears or king do not get enough votes at agm

Agree0 Disagree0

Wullie, Quite simply Rangers need cash to survive and the obvious way is to use your assets as collateral. [ common business practice. ] It has been quite common for Ibrox to be used in the past and I cannot understand the mass hysteria about it. As gkk states, correctly, if this proceeds it would clarify the doubt about the title deeds.
The key to our future is board control and, in my opinion, we should back the King, Park etc. and Rangers fans groups to ensure overall control.

Agree0 Disagree0

@2. don't think this will put the deeds things to rest, bet even Ashley doesn't know who's name is on the deeds, wait and see, his offer will be knocked back,. gary

Agree0 Disagree0

If it does not matter who the loan comes from why will they not entertain anybody except fat Ashley.

Agree0 Disagree0

Who supplies the loan does not matter if ashley supplies loan it will be recorded at sasines then it can be searched to see if he has first charge or second charge ie if whyte has a lean on ibrox

Agree0 Disagree0

Bigwull
Are you crazy why take a loan when there is money out there to cover this. Saying no boycott as this would hurt rangers and rangers needs the money. Well there is money on offer and the board are still not taking it because they think they can get more money from the club and fans.

Agree0 Disagree0

Let's get one thing clear, IF Ashley provides the loan, he does not own Ibrox it's the assessed value that is used as security. I'll bet the Park consortium are reasonably happy that they will be able to use their funds to ensure that, with backing, they can ensure a majority shareholding.
I am also confident that Ashley is securing his merchandising deal and will now negotiate. Quite simply it is in his best interests if we are a vibrant, successful club.

Agree0 Disagree0

Billyb aye there are that happy they have offered the loan without security, the three bears offered the 10 million to keep the fat controller from getting his hans on it, a great move in my eyes, I think it's a case of let the fight begin, it's not the man in the fight, it's the fight in the man.

Agree0 Disagree0

George123, Have they? As far as a fight goes there will only be one winner.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Looks like Ashley has blindsided them.

Hopefully now every single Bear realises that Ashley is toxic for our once great club.

I have lost all respect for any Gers legends that have been supporting Ashley in any way in recent weeks especially Derek Johnstone who criticised the SFA for not allowing him to own over ten per cent of shares in RIFC.

Time for other legends like Walter Smith and John Greig to demand a total boycott starting before the Hearts game although I doubt they will do so.

No we can't have ibrox pawn off ever the is the last straw are board have lied again and drastic measures are now required
We need to make a noise a movement at tomorrow nights match that will get nationwide media attention
Mass walkout
Sit in protest
We simply can't sit back anymore bears

Believable0 Unbelievable0

15 Jan 2015 16:58:56
Here's one for your nationwide media attention, those that attend the game tomorrow don't move from your seat until you are relieved by a like minded fan. A we shall not be moved sit in lasting however long it takes to force the B******S out.

Quite sure ssn would take a keen interest in this. The supporters have to have a part to play and if it helps focus media attention on just how corrupt this board is then its a great start.

Surely something like securing a loan against MP & Ibrox must get shareholders approval 1st?

I say if it does go ahead we should try & lease Hampden instead off Ibrox ( I believe he can't touch Ibrox as its a listed building) therefore cutting Ashley out completely & even if we have to train on a park until we get something else sorted give Ashley nowt!!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

15 Jan 2015 14:50:07
I'm convinced Ashley is doing this purely out of spite because the SFA blocked him from buying more shares,not only that but the manner in which King/Park aquired holdings that he had earmarked for himself,clearly has put his nose out of joint.He is doing it "because he can" he has his retail deals ffs,how much is enough?

Agree0 Disagree0

GKK - Aye your totally right mate his nose has been put completely out of place and he don't like it therefore trying to milk us for everything!

Its time to make a Stand Fans!!

Agree0 Disagree0

If Ashley is doing this out of spite then he still needs our board to allow him to. It is the board that is allowing him to position himself in this way. The Easdales and Somers have turned down all external investors money which would go to the club in favour of Ashley's LOANS. They must be getting something for this.

Agree0 Disagree0

Blue steve I was listening to rock sport tonight, the easdales dont take a wage, they don't claim expenses, there loans have been paid back in full, they still own there shares, so why do they as rangers supporters side with Ashley, they must have been offered some thing in return IMO, somers has been proven to lie to the fans so why is he still employed at our club.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 14:08:53
Is now the time to start protests outside Sports direct?

Turn down major investment in the club to give away our two prized assets to Ashley for 10 million pounds. Done now with this lot and won't be back till there's big changes made!

Pb1. I don't know if that's possible, but I would not mind changing our name to Hamden rangers, I would agree to anything just to stop the current crew from living of us the fans.

Cant believe that there is nobody who holds a posiition in scottish / british society (mps, police, sfa, even uefa, etc ) aren't demanding a public enquiry into this whole mess!!

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 13:34:43
If the Ashley deal goes through which no doubt it will with his puppets that are on the board, does anyone know if we can start the club up again & lease Hampden instead of Ibrox, issue new retail contracts etc - Not Sports Direct and give Ashley nowt!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Lots of red tape and would need to gain a licence. Would be easier to buy out a club - say at mirren " sorry buddies"
Perhaps that's what we should do with the trusts money!
Take the 13 players out of contract - or those we want! And start afresh
Let's leave ashley to his empty stadium and training academy that doesn't work!
I am convinced the SFA won't stand for the blatant two fingers approach by ashley. Will they threaten to remove rangers license due to business unable to operate without loans and operating at a loss.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 12:59:03
What do we the fans do next?

If full boycott happens and we starve them of income then we play into hands of Ashley and he secures ownership of Ibrox and MP once the £10m - £13m loan is used up and we end up in admin 2 with no assets or having to lease these back from MA.

If we support team and protest from inside stadium then the board continue to ignore the fans wishes for them to step aside and limp on with the fans cash to pay bills while siphoning off for themselves all other income streams.

Not sure we have any options here and spivs have achieved their end game.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

15 Jan 2015 13:25:31
Well mate I thought Park/King bought their shares in anticipation of something like this happing,thus enabling them to prevent it. I now ask myself why did they bother?
I also think they should make a statement as to what they can do about this,if anything.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 13:34:15
Brian Kennedy saying this may not be a bad thing as it gives the board 2 options he also says ashley should give an undertaking that the stadium will only ever be use for R. F. C to play football.

15 Jan 2015 14:13:17
Ah well,its no bad thing because Brian Kennedy said so,he has no ties to the place,emotional or otherwise.Other funding is available,borrowing on the strengh of the stadium should be THE last resort.It stinks man.

George123 re your post on finance page, I know king couldn't come in when green got the club as he had his own probs to deal with, My point about the boycotts not working if there's money coming in you can pay wages etc no money coming in means to keep the business going you have to aquire loans which just plays into ashleys hands, now I know king called for boycotts but surely he must've realised they were not working hence the reason he and T3B started buying shares.

REGARDLESS of boycotts loans ect this was always the end game for people involved in this deal they wanted there hands on ibrox and murray park whyte is claiming ten million pound from rangers and this is the same amount Ashley offers that just ain't a coincidence

Agree0 Disagree0

Rf. the putters sitting on the board, Ashley's puppets will make sure Ashley's loans are the only loans accepted, the fans were told about the grand plans years ago and sat back and done feck all, yes absolutely feck all, now what do we do, I will tell you, we do as Ashley tells us, aye feckin Popeyes, boycott, the only way we get this wee fat man to pay attention is when you stop giving him money, rant over.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2015 14:21:08
Again boycotts equal no money comming in which in return requires the need for loans from ashley which has now led to him owning all our assets so further boycotts will lead to needing more loans and with no assets to secure them against we are f***** and as no one was prepared to buy them out in the first place the club folds ashley sells all the assets to whoever and walks away with a handsome profit in his pocket and us the fans no team, no assets and no history, and then our haters can then say with all honesty we are truly dead!

Rf I was listening to a debate re our club on radio, it makes no difference to Ashley if we go into admin, cause the retail deal won't go in to admin, but Ashley could put us into admin, I always thought he could not put us into admin when people were willing to invest, but seems not, we could go into admin, Ashley main creditor and still has the retail deal Ffs what have this board done for the benefit of the club, as that is what they are employed to do, look after the club.

there is talk flying about this all over the internet its something to do with deed of novation
hear is a bit about it and would explain the scramble for ten million

when duff and phelps were agreeing the deal to sell the assets of Rangers in liquidation the company that was legally obliged to buy them was called Sevco5088 Instead, the assets were sold to Sevco Scotland ltd the sfa five way agreement is between sevco scotland the sfa Rangers 0ldco duff and phelps and the spl sevco 5088 seemingly vanished
except it didn't now there is talk that sevco scotland are facing a £10 million cash claim from the company that ought to have taken over the club and surprise surprise that company is controlled controlled by none other than craig whyte

I know how your feeling mate, the heart has been ripped right out of Rangers and I honestly don't think it will ever be mended. i'm gutted for every Rangers fan I've ever met who have sacrificed a lot in their life's to follow Rangers all over the world and every Rangers fan who have passed away over the years that will be turning in their graves at the thought of some little b. d taken the piss out of us and ripping our history apart.

15 Jan 2015 11:47:51
I came on here months ago and said that boycotts were not the way to go about it as with no monies coming in ashley would keep giving loans until eventually he had them secured against the crown jewls of Ibrox & murry park I also said they wouldn't move unless they were bought out and I got shot down in flames, well I just hope its not to late & T3B and king along with the trust and others have enough shares between them to call an E. G. M and overthrow these people, sadly I think T3B and king have done the maths & don't have enough support from fellow shareholders to call it, I only hope I'm. wrong and they have enough support.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Rf king and 3bs already have 34% it would take 40% of all shareholders for a majority vote for any ordinary resolution put forward at an EGM

With RST, rangers direct, prior, and individual fans they would reach that no problem

the question I have asked several times now is - why don't they do it??

looks like the current ownership of ibrox has been settled though!

I have repeatedly said ashley will happily give loans until there is nothing left to secure them against I think after todays news unless something. happens we have now reached that point. now with fans still willing to boycott and ashley now having nothing left to secure his loans against we better hope his intentions for the club are good. because with no one willing to put money up or not offering enough as in sarvers case. think what it will cost now, yes the club for a snip probs, but to get Ibrox, Murray park, albion car park etc back from ashley will be astronomical. And what if supermarket chain or Housing associations offer more then it really is the end game.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ashley will end up with complete control of everything associated with our great club, yet the fat fecker has not put one brass penny into the club. all loans.

What are the fans supposed to do? What effect can they have on what Ashley does? Too many people- normally not fans of our club- keep telling us that we are allowing things to take place. Don't you understand yet? The whole thing has been a set up from the start. These spivs control everything.

Looks like a gamble by Mike with the contingent liability still an issue over the ownership of Ibrox and Auchenhowie.

Saying that it is a gamble he can easily afford and looking at his wealth he obviously seems to be one of the best at what he does.

Scary times.

Agree0 Disagree0

Cullien72 some of us have warned people about this from day one, called for total boycotts, very few listened, I done my own thing I have not been to a game since charliebhoy got involved.

Its time for King to come out and broker a deal with Ashley, he might not want to pay top dollar but I am sure they can compromise for everyone to be happy.

#7 Cannot believe that after everything that has happened in the last 2 years that people are still harbouring after Dave King. The man is a charlatan who, becasue of his rhetoric has caused the club no end of financial trouble. At the beginning of the season he called for a boycott, that cost the club millions and forced the existing situation upon them, if it wasnt for the Easdale's giving the club interest free loans the club would have folded long ago. It isn't another sugar daddy with promise of millions of pounds the club needs, it is someone with a head on how to run a business. Make more than you spend and there will never be any problems but that sadly doesn't fit the model for a numer of Rangers fans, always chasing the fast buck. learn from your mistakes before you don't have anything left to support.

Agree0 Disagree0

N7tamtimtic. Ashley won't allow anybody a slice of the cake, he is a greedy fat fecker.

Agree0 Disagree0

Naz. At the end of the day Ashley has nowt to fear over ownership of ibrox, Ffs at the worst one of his camp might own it, yes mr whyte, they are all involved in this from day one, so at the worst Ashley might have to give whyte money for ibrox, but that was probably part of the whole scheme, they probably agreed years ago that if it all came off they would reward whyte for his part in the whole robbery.

Beginning to think t3b & king don't have the support of other shareholders and. that's why they haven't called an E. G. M hope I'm wrong but that's the way its looking.

If Cashleys gives a loan and uses Ibrox and Murry park as security then Once the loan is repaid the security is no longer needed. Then again Cashleys has an alteriative motive for his actions. This shyster and the twins are up to more than we could dream of.

Agree0 Disagree0

A total boycott is the call of the day, it's the only thing asset strippers know, it's about money and nothing else to these guys, my own thoughts on the sfa is they have known from day one what was happening, they allowed it because the follow another glasgow club, and it's not Partick thistle,

Agree0 Disagree0

Find it amazing that people are now saying the SFA hsould get involved to stop this. Is this the same SFA that have been lambasted form pillar to post by every Rangers fan on the planet for their treatment of the club. This is nto an SFA problem, this is a financial issue. What the SFA should be looking at is one of their member clubs trading insolvently. Rangers cannot get by a month without having to borrow millions of pounds. Maybe this loan from ma and the fact that costs are being slashed will mean the club living within it's means. The other parties simply don't have the finance to take over Rangers and to support it until the mess is sorted out. I think there may be some more pain to come as the playing squad is culled.

Agree0 Disagree0

I have just ripped up my hearts tickets TOTAL BOYCOTT NEEDED.

Agree0 Disagree0

Mcc the knife. Well done mate, but you've already paid for the ticket, though I think you are now starting to see the light, for by that the games on TV. so stop feeding the animals, let them starve.

Agree0 Disagree0

Bought them on Monday, thought things were going to happen for the good, not now finished.

Agree0 Disagree0

Mcc the knife, you might be able to recoup your money, sell them to a hearts supporter, they were only meant to get 2thousand ma feckin boz, the people running rangers will do what ever it takes to sell out ibrox, more money for there pension fund.

when learning a trade the saying is your only as good as what your tradesman teaches you so what does that say about Smith and McCoist

Believable0 Unbelievable0

15 Jan 2015 10:09:56
Therefore you can't blame smith or mccoist as the majority of these players learned there trade as youngsters elsewhere.

Seems the cash from the Celtic and hearts games are keeping the board in place to fight another day!. Are we Naive or what, when will the fans realise that a complete boycott is the only answer.

Or the so called saviour Dave king can put his money where his mouth is? Everybody has a price

Perhaps today's news will wake them up.
SFA need to get involved, under current rules Ashley is prevented from dual club ownership, surely at the point were he holds power to every asset then he becomes completely in control. They cannot stand by and allow this to happen.

Agree0 Disagree0

There is nothing in the rule book that stops MA from loaning the club money in return for security. Surprised you are now calling for the SFA to ride to the rescue after all the abuse that has been directed their way in the last 2 years. They have allowed the club to continue to trade while insolvent so why would they step in and stop the club borrowing a substantial amount of money to get them to the end of the season.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ashley's latest move is a direct two fingers to the SFA. At this months meeting they will huff and puff by which time ashley will own everything.
Will they have the balls to threaten to terminate rangers licence?
If they do so what is ashley actually left with - a football stadium with limited redevelopment. A training academy with no planning and a squad that isn't worth 10p.
Scottish football has managed to survive without rangers at the top table and the doom and gloom scenario hasn't happened.
Perhaps the SFA will have enough and bring this sorry soap opera to an end.

Agree0 Disagree0

Gerso9 the s. f. a. Also said Ashley should have no control in the running of the club, and we have seen how that worked eh, they will allow Ashley to do as he pleases, allowing to own the lot as long as we finish in second place in the league only, and he would do so, as this is the way he runs his English club, no need to spend money, if he wanted Newcastle to play in Europe he could, as gp he has the money, but he is not a spender of money,
