With reassuring regularity, Dave often appears after a bad result for the Sevco High Command and offers some helpful advice.
This piece of mine from 2017 on the manoeuvrings in the Blue Room remains apposite.
The current Sevco High Command know many things about the Johannesburg based convicted criminal, especially his machinations when he was in the big seat at Ibrox.
However, some of them were party to what he did after he seized power in the Off Licence Putsch.
Dear reader, the devil is still in the retail, and we must follow follow the money.
There IS a story here for the intrepid chaps on the sports desks to run down.
Instead, they faithfully regurgitate what is given to them with unquestioning obedience.
Mr King has the measure of the local media on Planet Fitba.
That is why he knows his assertions will not be scrutinised.
However, these two dignified chaps show more sceptical inquisitiveness than an entire junket of stenographers.
Chapeau!
Here the quintessentially British impresario of Follow Follow puts the Blue Room’s perspective.
I do hope that they can all get along.

Oh the banter
A guy that voted against a CVA for the old (soon to be dead club ) now rumoured to be threatening to put the new club into admin .
Yet the gullible still laud him ACS saviour.
Oh ma sides
I imagine if they get knocked out of the cup,things will go Newtonards down Ibrox way .
“He’s threatened to put THE CLUB into liquidation”, gotta laugh.
I heard someone is interesting offering 40p per share to buy Sevco.
If Whyte paid £1 for the real Rangers then I assume that’s a mistake and it’s 40p for the whole club.
I admit to knowing little of shares and their transactions etc;…as I haven’t got the slightest interest in this Capitalist hobby… but I know infighting when I see it…and with Sevco…I see it.
Let’s hope that more turmoil than they can handle comes their way.
And the sooner the better.
Asylum you say 🤔 I say he is in good company. As ever follow follow the money. Musical chairs, the only thing is nobody wants to sit down even when the music stops.
KTF Hail Hail.
Interesting piece, but the “immaterial profits even in our best financial year” lets it down.
One year of “Operating Profit” [2022], which still generated a “Loss for The Year”,
just like every year since 2012.
But, yes looks like it’s disarray everwhere you look at Ibrox;
– Blue Room unrest
– failing team and manager
– supporters getting a mention on the national TV news bulletins for their shocking behaviour.
…and then King throws his tuppence worth into the mix.
Brilliant ! 🙂
Sounds like they are up to their knees in confetti.
Why could the last poster not have said ‘liquidation again’ for me that would have summed the whole understanding of their business logic up.
I posted last week King will be back, he smells blood. The money angle he loves but he needs to be jetting in and face in the paper.
It’s started hasn’t it? The implosion which we have all dreamed about is actually happening and it is happening pure and simply because the directors cannot put in enough of their own cash to beat The Famous Glasgow Celtic and the big picture has come about when the biggest benifactor walked away last week after years of bank rolling this mob and made his mind up that enough is far too much. That and the fact that Wee Micky Biele just cannot get the better of Big Ange and its only going to get worse. HH
What connection would Tupperware and Scottish Fitba have do you think ?
Rangers imploded after the 2007/2008 financial crisis, but Tupperware survived it.
We have a new global financial crisis/inflation/rising interest rates/war, it’s a fairly safe bet that some companies wont survive what is happening right now.
“Tupperware warns of collapse unless it finds funds”
If Tupperware is going bust, anyone can go bust.
Still looking for his share of the casket of assets.
I see he claims that last month he was offered over £25m for his 63m+ shares, pricing them at approximately 40p each. He knocked this generous offer back. To be fair to the the man, I would have turned it down myself. It clearly came from someone in the lockdown ward of an Asylum for the insane.
I’m not a finance expert, but surely only a business owner (or an appointed administrator) can liquidate a company? Even as a shareholders, surely Dave King is restricted to sequestration the assets of the business and, in this instance, those assets exclude the playing staff – who would be recognised as employees. If I am right, then all the Glibmeister can do is padlock the Teasmaid, and tell Sally the Secretary that she is forbidden to use the typewriter and the Tippex. Effectively, DK will look like that little kid that demands his ball back when his buddies don’t pick him for a game. The domino effect of this is that King takes it to court, and all sorts of nastiness ensues. Time to stock up on jelly, ice cream, and popcorn by the looks of things!! 😉😉😉
