NG32 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Will probably just buy Leeds that's what I would do. Cheap, Stadium is decent side and good fan base. Spend a few million quid, get promoted and join the gravy train. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCW1983 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Will probably just buy Leeds that's what I would do. Cheap, Stadium is decent side and good fan base. Didn't they sell the stadium and the training ground? I seem to remember reading that they rent them now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 We've got nee chance. There's probably about five PL clubs that could be had way cheaper than us not to mention the sleeping giants downstairs. FMA will want about 500m, you could probably buy 3 of the others for that.

Guest antz1uk Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rangers-announce-5million-loan-mike-7067878 Rangers announce that £5million loan from Mike Ashley has been repaid in full 14:59, 24 DEC 2015 UPDATED 15:02, 24 DEC 2015 BY RECORD SPORT ONLINE A single sentence published on their official website on Christmas Eve said that the money is now in the bank. Dave King and Mike Ashley are involved in a bitter feudDave King and Mike Ashley RANGERS have released a statement announcing that the £5million loan from Sports Direct magnate Mike Ashley has now been repaid. A single sentence published on their official website on Christmas Eve said that the money is now in the bank: "We are pleased to announce that payment has today been sent to Sportsdirect.com Retail Limited of the full amount of the loan facilities provided by that company to The Rangers Football Club Limited." Speaking at the club's AGM last month, Rangers chairman Dave King revealed that the outstanding loan would be repaid in January and that "it took me one hour this morning to raise the £5m from major shareholders." However, the waters were muddied in the recent court case in London where a QC representing the club claimed that the money had already been repaid. This was followed by angry denials from Sports Direct, with Rangers director Paul Murray later claiming: "that was just a simple mistake which was made by our QC. He didn't have the facts to his fingertips." "The facts are quite simple, we have £5m on deposit with a solicitors at the moment. The loan will be repaid as soon as the legal documentation is in place." The payment will now activate a seven-year notice period for existing retail deals between Rangers and Sports Direct, as revealed by Record Sport.

Ronaldo Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Also Elland Road is in no way decent, it's a bombsite. It's a decent size, which is what Gorilla meant. It really is the pits between the seating and the turnstiles, mind. I brought some Leeds mates to SJP about a decade ago and they wandered round in amazement.

Wallsendmag Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Also Elland Road is in no way decent, it's a bombsite. One decent stand and 3 old ramshackle stands which are dropping to bits. Only holds around 36k these days for safety reasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Eland Road is a classic stadium, but badly outdated and a bit of a shit hole tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Love Elland Rd, had some class trips there. Was abused by some charvers in McDonald's near the ground once. Threw chips at me, skanks. Think that was after the 4-3 win in the snow. What a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 It's a proper stadium IMO, but it's run down and because I'm in the area quite a lot it's kind of sad seeing it the way it is. I quite like Leeds, a proper club. I would far rather see them in the PL than some other club's tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially not of ER's proportion. It's getting there like, it looks so out of place at the moment it's sad. As for LUFC, I work there a lot, same with Middlesbrough, so I kind of get on with the locals and find that they are just like us in many ways, real football fans.
