Yes and rightly so. |  | | |

Probably for the best IMO.
It was degenerating into a slanging match which can easily be carried out by pm.
Don't mind reading facts or rumours about the R's but that sort of thing should be kept man to man ( or women).
I'm backing Clive's decision on that one, and no, I'm not part of a cliche (sic). |  | | |

Fair question, I've no idea but I did notice at the unveiling of Ji Sung Park that Amit excused himself after the initial introduction and his body language seemed a bit off. But that could've been for a number of reasons of course! | | | |

Have to laugh.

You can always tell when I'm about to delete something. First it descends into a discussion about who is a cnt or not, then I say that's enough, then nobody listens, then I delete it. Mittal a worthy topic of discussion, and I think they're on their way, and there were some good posts on there but they were outnumbered 10:1. If you want to discuss it further please start a new thread that doesn't satisfy the sexual desires of an attention seeking tosspot. |  | | |

I excpect 10% of all the advertising revs on the site in the last 48 hours...least you can do? (WATRBs probably owe me a fortune)
Being serious and I'll leave this to someone else to start. I have genuinely heard that the Mittals are off as they are not happy with the business plan set out by TF. My source was NOT Paladini but when I last spoke to him he thought the Mittals were pissed off. That plus talking to someone else there (albeit they are a junior employee) is three sources..hence why I posted it on twitter
If that does happen, which I'm assured it will, considering how great Amit was specifically for us, thats a topic for debate.
The exit interview on the offy will be very very interesting. | | | |

I must admit to feeling a little bit less confident about the future if the Mittals go .
Having one of the richest blokes in the world on board and Amit as an influence in the boardroom makes me feel that we have stability and real financial clout.
I think Scott Jones should be banned from this site . I am all for free speech and opinion but he has done nothing for the forum except promote himself ,assist Paladini in his scumbag ways and undermine the club .
Not a Rangers fan in a million years.

I suppose the answer is we don't know if there is anything to be worried about or not.
What we know from what has happened so far is that the branding of the club is being directed more at markets that would appear to specifically interest TF & co than Mittal & co. As a minority shareholder, the Mittals are being asked to pay significant funding without getting much in the way of credit for what is happening to the infrastructure of the club; again I think this is viewed very much as TF's vision of our future.
Like most, I got great comfort from having two wealthy shareholders on board. I guess at the end of the day, mega rich individuals dont get mega rich by being happy to play second fiddle to anyone. |  | | |

For me the bottom line is that the mittals had the chance to buy outright and they didnt take it.
Fernandes and co seem to be the real deal its since they arrived that things have started to really move on, I dont doubt that they can find another investor to take the place of mittal or take on the additional shareholding within their own ranks and they had the majority in the board room anyway so i really dont think there is anything more to be concerned about than there was anyway. Amit Bathia was very good for the club especially as a rudder of sense amidst the madness of Briatore and Paladini, I would prefer for him to remain involved but wont be slashing my wrists if he decides to leave and go for something that he can have more control over. |  | | |

If I remember well, mittals wanted to buy out tango and cash, but the deal fell through. Reasons, I don't know. | |
