Can only end well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be the ultimate continuation of the banter years You know for a fact that they would welcome him with open arms.

Other than that, spot on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys on here tend to be a bit more sane than some of the wider support. However, welcoming King as chairman was bonkers when you think about it. He was on the board before and he was a convicted tax criminal. TAX for Christ's sake - the thing that sank the club. The support also happily accepted McCoist, the primary profiteer from liquidation - singing his name during the rebirth - until it became clear quite how bad he was as a football manager. Remember all those trophies the team won under Murray and how keenly the support resisted the moral pressure to have them removed. Anyway, what did Murray do wrong? His behaviour only led to liquidation and apparently that doesn't matter. I'm not even being facetious. If there's any weight behind this story - a big if - then plenty of Rangers fans will be fine with it, provided Murray says he'll chuck in lots of money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you hankering after the glory days of The Big Thread when you could post tripe like this and be lauded by diddies all and sundry? It's a shite article with no substance.

I agree with all of this. Football fans (not just those at Ibrox) have short memories. If Murray came back and ploughed some money in then he would be hailed as a messiah too. If MJ came back to Kilmarnock with some inheritance money or whatever and we started to sign players then he eventually would be liked too. Wouldn't surprise me to see Murray coming back in. The whole saga stank a little bit from day one. If the old Rangers hadn't died I'd probably be quite unhappy with how they got away with it but they did so I'm not. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 53rd on the Scottish rich list with around £150m. I really can't see him coming back, just the usual paper talk before an old firm game. 10 minutes ago, topcat(The most tip top) said: Has David Murray actually got any money ?
