I am delighted to see that 85% of shareholders in rangers FC (RFC) voted at the EGM to boot out the Ashley patsies and vote on the Dave King slate as directors. But there remain a series of questions about the club’s future on AIM and also about the behaviour of disgraced advisers WH Ireland and Newgate Communications.
King himself has not taken a seat on the board but instead Douglas Park has joined along with the other new boys Paul Murray and John Gilligan. The old board indicated that AIM might have issues with King given his colourful past and I guess he has side stepped that and so there is now np reason AIM can object to Rangers staying on the Casino.
All that it needs to do is to find a Nominated Advisor (Nomad) to replace WH Ireland – the employer of disgraced China fraud specialist Paul Shackleton – which quit two days before the EGM. That should not be an issue.
Most Nomads will represent anyone for a fee. After all Paul Shackleton was happy to represent Naibu (NBU) even though its CEO was languishing in gaol although he did not feel the need to inform investors. Shackleton was well aware that the Naibu CEO had a criminal record but again was happy to take Naibu’s money. Quite why Mr Shackleton regards Dave King as worse than Houyan Lin of Naibu escapes me but then perhaps the fact that Naibu had paid his employer £750,000 in two years swayed his opinion. But I guess Shackleton would not be of interest to Rangers.
