September 20, 2013 Behold, I Show You A Mystery I note that there has been a bit of speculation over the breakdown of the Easdales’ shareholding in Rangers. – so much that one writer has even called it a mystery. Having myself seen the breakdown I can tell my readers that the Easdales have direct control over 14% of shares with Sandy Easdale himself having 4.37%. On top of this he has voting rights over a further 10% approximately. These shares belong to Blue Pitch and Margarita. This means that Sandy Easdale speaks for roughly 24% of shares. In addition, the board has the backing of other investors. As has already been seen, Minico and the requisitioners have exaggerated their own backing. As I have said previously, Sandy Easdale is continuing to impress investors with his acumen and no-frills approach. The general consensus of investors backing the board is that a wholesale removal of directors – as proposed by Minico – would be too disruptive for the business at this time. I can also reveal to my readers that there is serious wealth behind the Easdales in terms of backing, in particular from Blue Pitch. Not only that but it is from the most impeccable of sources in terms of fiscal propriety and corporate governance. In fact what I have been told is this; “Blue Pitch can write a cheque out for £50 milion at the drop of a hat to support the Easdales and Rangers when the club needs to buy a squad to challenge and win in Europe.” Having discovered the strength of Blue Pitch I have no doubt about this statement. What’s more, for Sandy Easdale to impress them speaks volumes about his own credentials. There is no mystery to the Easdales shareholdings. Unless, of course, you don’t have the information. Or making things look mysterious helps your agenda. ——————————- Rangers fans will be horrified by the sickening sight of bluenose Alan Short lying bleeding in the street after a vicious attack in Thailand. Short was on holiday in Pattaya and was wearing a Rangers top when he was approached by two men. He chatted with them before they viciously assaulted him. Witnesses confirmed the attack was unprovoked. The two thugs who attacked the Scots tourist were later arrested and it is believed they come from Ireland. This has all the hallmarks of a sectarian crime and highlights there is much work to do to stamp out the hatred and bigotry which ravages our game. It also shows that there is nowhere safe on planet earth from bigotry and sectarianism that arises from football rivalries here in Scotland. Alan Short’s nightmare ordeal is a wake-up call for all of us. watp....shiz
