Top Bins Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 We need some statement and conclusion now, it’s doing my head in and I can’t concentrate at work. More conspiracy theories than the moon landing, JFK, Elvis and Lord Lucan rolled into one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it is worth I actually have some hope that this maybe the point where the MSG actually take a step back and think we have to be more inclusive now, we have to seriously engage with more people to bring a freshness to the club. Maybe I am just in glass half full mode. Interestingly on his US Property Business it employs 7 staff. The average salary is $120,000. At that level it doesn't add up that he has a multi-million dollar empire. The tone shift in these posts in the context of those tweets from the lad Lang is very, very interesting. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL-FFC Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I cant understand why BtB would want to create a link to someone thats treated them so shoddily in this case the MSG and everything they have stood against. its like Stockholm syndrome why the hell would you want to stay surely Gowsers one has to be more credible than this. So despite the f**k ups and all they have done to burn bridges with the fanbase we are sticking with the status quo on this one. You couldnt make this sh*t up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF this is true then I think we need more detail from BTB on this before an assessment can be made on it. If the current board are allowed to stay in place and BTB just take a couple of token seats on the BoD so they can get some free sausage rolls and can brag about being on the board up Behind the Wall then they can take a running jump to themselves. I'd consider it a betrayal if we get a watered down version of fan ownership which sees Lex and co remain in situ. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex and Andy cannot stay under any circumstances, i could maybe accept a new board with BTB involved but has to be a clean break from the old regime. There would have to be a long term plan to sell shares to fans as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relegator Ritchie Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) BtB better not be about to jump into bed with these p***ks! Whatever happens now with Mark Campbell does not change the fact that the MSG are done at this club. Finished completely. After everything that’s happened, for BtB to sit down over a cosy lunch with these arseholes and negotiate a token seat or two on the board doesn’t cut the mustard. That’s obviously a hypothetical but nonetheless realistic scenario which, in my view, would render BtB part of the overall problem instead of being the solution we’d all hoped for.

Nothing actually surprises me any longer as far as Falkirk are concerned we even manage to f**k up a takeover. Just want the whole thing done and dusted. though even though whats on twitter is rumours, hearsay and speculation it could be a load of sh*te but then again there could be some truth, end of the day it will pan out one way or the other but for the MSG for to pat themselves on the back should they remain in place for a promotion at first attempt is a situation we should never have found ourselves in in the first place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bainsfordbairn Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 30 minutes ago, champions said: Do you actually believe that shite? Kind of where I am too. The post has been written as hard fact without any evidence to support it, other than "I've been told". By whom? The fairies who live under the rose bushes at the bottom of his garden? I don't think the MSG will be staying, for reasons that I've given previously, though obviously I accept that time could prove me wrong. But if they are staying, is it really credible that they would be sharing their plans with BTB? Or with someone who would pass those plans onto a guy who runs a facebook messageboard? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 At the end of the day the btb bid was all about diluting the shares and not punting the msg. The new bod was to be a 50/50 sllit originally. Half new half current. You've got to get your foot in the door first and then work at reducing the old bod input. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still be very happy with this scenario. I'd definitely do not want the club in the hands of one individual again...….and especially not you know who! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbrbairn Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Spoke with my Celtic daft brother last night and asked him how he felt about the important cup tie Celtic will be involved in today. He started talking about a Champions league qualifier!What planet do these people live on? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
