As far as Ashley is concerned, every action has a reaction. So he wants to take control when his brand is close to being advertised around europe (even if it is only a few qualifiers) natural reaction from king is to invest himself to keep ashley away, possibly getting us a team better equipped for the europa league and taking us into the group stages therefore giving sports direct more coverage?

He has no chance from what I hear king and the 3 bears plus club1872 and an other hold over 50% of the club, this is the end for fat man

Not one but every single member of the original investment team could be convinced that the money they invested will never see anything other than failure. Bet365 cash out option of losing only £100 rather than £1000 is Mike Ashley. We have all seen an acca almost there, but know that the final game is a lost cause. let's be real here guys. Investment is investment. The devil could wear blue and pay and not one of us would say a word if we are winning. We talk a big game, but we back it up with very very little. Great support, but we will buy season books a plenty if we are given yet more promises without conformation.

If Ashley is sad to see the state we are in then WHY doesn't he have a merchandise deal in place that would benefit both parties and not feud with King resulting in our financial woes and hence adding to this STATE we are in! The guy is a joke and does not have Rangers best interests at heart. Also does it now look like we are tied to this deal for full duration Bears please let me know if anyone knows what's happening with this?

I hate ashley for what he's done to Rangers but there may be a bit of truth in the face he is wanting to buy out king an invest money I don't no what to think but if he's willing to spend money £30 million just to take control he might just want to take us forward who nos don't trust anyone anymore he could offer more in transfer money than king ever will yes he's a money man but he's willing to invest in Newcastle they will get champions league so if he did take control I think he would spend big to achieve that with us

He doesn't have to buy us for that, Albertz. He could sponsor say, a Rosenborg for instance, who play in Europe every year and sick his rotten logo on their strip for far less.

Can't believe people are even considering Ashley or believes all this bull about he will invest Ashley only thinks of Ashley it would be a total disaster if he was to get his hands on us. All he is thinking is this court case he could lose and have his retail contacts ripped up so from his point of view he thinks spend 30mill take over then I can do what I want. this take over is just to keep his business plans going with no interference at all that's all he wants and with the retail deal he has and getting sports direct probably on are strips with us in Europe. So a one off payment of 30mill for someone of his wealth will be a good deal for that but don't believe for one minute he will invest or look after us not a chance!

King has bought and invested in a side interest that was interest to himself and he lumped it onto his investment. £18m that he spouted to the media has nothing to do with the direct footballing side of rangers. King will argue that he has spent money the club. All he has done has bought parts of the club. He has had numerous opportunities under severe criticism to point to that part of the spreadsheet and say yeah that was me. He hasn't and it would of been his best defence if he could of done that.

All Ashley is doing is making it out that he has the club's best interests at heart to help his case in court!

i'm not going to sit and lecture people here but i will say i have learned my lesson when it comes to the fat rat. he came in took advantage of a major club that was being run into the ground by criminals, therefore by association he is a criminal and is stealing money everyday from rangers pockets.

so why on Earth would anyone believe a guy that has never done anything for Newcastle United except get them relegated and playing worse, and that has stolen from us?
