Abstract.Fix integers $k \ge 1$, $n \ge 2$, an integral projective variety $X$, a rank $n$ torsion free sheaf $E$ on $X$ and an ample line bundle $H$ on $X$. Here we prove the existence of an integer $t_0$ and a positive real number $\alpha _0$ (depending only from $X$, $E$ and $H$) such that for all integers $t \ge t_0$ there is a $k$-dimensional linear subspace $W \subseteq H^0(X,E(tH))$ such that the cogent pair $(E(tH),W)$ is not $\alpha$-stable (with respect to the polarization $H$) for all real numbers $\alpha \ge \alpha _0$.
