Rhubarb Mess Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 No, as a shareholder at the time I was there (Gantock Hotel) when it happened. You obviously weren't. There weren't any alternatives, but that doesn't suit your grudge. The whole 11th hour scenario was just Shuggie invented bollocks, he'd have waited as long as it took to get his blood money but the whole sorry episode had to come to an end at some point and the kid on deadline was the way it went. Ask the players? Why? Who is it that's kept us in this league? Only thing I want to ask them is where's their pride? We've already had "oh ma god the players just cannae take anymore" garbage this summer which surprise surprise was a load of bollocks from the usual group of hysterical wee lassies. Let's not go down that road again. No I wasn't at the Gantock, but you seem to think you know all there is to know, i'll leave you with that notion, you seem to be happy with it. It is not a grudge, I have serious misgivings of the future direction of Morton, and as for my ask the players (some of whom should be ashamed to wear a football top, never mind a ton top) well, take from that what you will, but when a doddery old man interrupts team talks, (both pre-match and half-time) it's high time someone told that idividual to get to f***. Spoonton, just noticed your 'question', no-one has spent any of their own money, i'm sure your aware of how Morton are financed, and it is certainly not straight out of someones sky-rocket.

Mabawsa Ritchie Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Why spend over £1 million of your own company's money that you will never see again?? Not many Rangers fans could do that and still afford a corporate box at Ibrox.

As the annual accounts are published, most folk know that Morton is subsidised by the other companies in the Golden Casket Group. Most folk also know who owns that Group.

No-one has spent any of their own money, you know we are financed by a company which has a shareholding. Repeat, no-one has spent over £1 million of their own dough. Don't believe the hype.

big B Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 At the end of the day Mr Rae put the money up to save the club when nobody else was waiting in the wings to so EVERY MORTON FAN SHOULD BE GRATEFUL. Okay we might not like some of the things that happen at the club but at least we still have a club to to go and watch.
SpoonTon Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 OK. No-one has spent any of their own money, you know we are financed by a company which has a shareholding. Repeat, no-one has spent over £1 million of their own dough. Don't believe the hype. That's not what I said, and you still haven't answered my question. Edit to say: I'll rephrase: Why spend over £1 million of your own company's money that your company will never see again? Doesn't change the question.

I am bowing out of this for this evening. Will try and reply to any outbursts tomorrow. I will leave you with one fact, In my local today, out of 16 Morton fans asked (no its not a Whiskers advert) not 1, and I mean not 1 will be buying the Morton top and OF fans where laughing at it (but who are they to laugh anyway) Read into that what you will.

No-one has spent over £1 million of their own companies money, and if they did do you think I would give a toss if they would see it again. You need to ask the Raes for a difinitive answer.

Rhubarb Mess Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 so the money owed to gc just appeared then No, but you have spelled it out yourself, it has appeared in GC accounts, not Dougies current account.. f***s sake some of you are truly Sir Walter Raleigh’s.

Rhubarb Mess Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 I think that would apply to you rather than said poster, and from this thread alone, it is obvious you don't.

Bryan Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 No, but you have spelled it out yourself, it has appeared in GC accounts, not Dougies current account.. who is the major share holder of GC then "Boy, I got vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals."
Scott_Gillan Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Many of the people who attend our games would also prefer to be attending Ibrox or Parkhead. Sad but true. I dont agree with that !!! OK. No-one has spent any of their own money, you know we are financed by a company which has a shareholding. Repeat, no-one has spent over £1 million of their own dough. Don't believe the hype. Wasnt morton given a low intrest loan by golden casket that we (The Fans)are still paying for .. No one put there own money up we were given a loan?? I cant remember who told me that has anyone else heard the same?
Rhubarb Mess Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 who is the major share holder of GC then You know as well as I do, but I refer you to Scott Gillans answer. Your paying for it, once again, don't believe the hype. I seriously didn't think people were still as gullable as they once were. We are a MEAN diddy team!!!
