I just do not understand why the club removed you from their company union Rangers Fans Board, you are a perfect fit for it. Merry Xmas.

Hiya Jack where have you been hiding?

Sons of Struth Just now · I have just been informed that the lawyer claiming to be acting on behalf of Mr & Mr Easdale, Mr Somers and RIFC has submitted to the crown an action against me and the emails i released last night The action is NOT against authenticity nor publication but he believes the emails have been obtained through illegal means. How could you obtain an email illegally if it were fake? The action in its self proves authenticity. I shared this email with the Rangers fans for one reason and one reason only, to show the members of our board are more interested in self preservation than the future of our club, I done so in the belief that the public had to see the email i was in possession of and without concern to any future action against me, I believe I have done the right thing. I will not be bullied in my attempts to clear our club of those controlling it for their own benefit and wish every man removed who does not put Rangers interests in front of their own I am unsure of the outcome of this action and what i will face tomorrow so i will therefore be taking a break from online activity until this outcome is known and will leave the page to the moderators to oversee with no further posts until things clear up Merry Christmas and happy New year to all in the Rangers Family Craig.

Llambias said today that McDowall has the job till the end of the season and possibly after that, or words to that effect.
-
Aye the RFB members should resign, they must know they are being used.
-
Ok but not all were there. :redface:
-
O Doctored video!!!! There was no music, no clapping, just booing. What a shower of lieing cheating bastards.

Just back home after the agm. What a setup for the meeting. We have a chairman who is an utter buffoon who seems to think the whole sorry mess is a laugh. We have a few fans who actually applaud Sandy Easdale, another cretin who thinks appointing a club chaplain is the way forward! I despair.

RF and Buy Rangers are vehicles for fans buying shares in the club with the long term strategy of fans being represented on the board/having as say in the club. Not buying in a shares issue and then buying the same shares from sellers would be a strange way to work.

[i Club Statement WRITTEN BY RANGERS FOOTBALL CLUB RANGERS would like to announce that Ally McCoist is relinquishing his duties as manager and will serve out the remainder of his 12 month notice period on gardening leave. We would like to thank Ally for all his hard work and dedication over the last few years, but we feel it is now in the best interests of all parties to move on. Assistant Manager Kenny McDowall will take over his duties until the end of the season.
-
Yes till end of season.
-
Yes, just does not make sense to me. Do they only want to buy shares from other shareholders and not put new money into the club via new share issue? Seems strange reasoning.
-
Looks like he has already moved.
-
On gardening leave I believe.

From Mail online. Ally McCoist may have managed Rangers for the final time as Mike Ashley prepares to move to replace him Rangers set to prepare moves aimed at dispensing with Ally McCoist Club to make an announcement after Monday's annual general meeting McCoist steered his side to a 2-0 victory over Livingston on Saturday Rangers are set to make moves aimed at dispensing with Ally McCoist as manager after Monday’s annual general meeting at Ibrox. An announcement is expected to be made of Mike Ashley’s intent to underwrite the new £8million share issue, approval for which must be granted by shareholders in order to keep the club operating beyond the end of next month. With that availability of fresh funding and newly-appointed chief executive Derek Llambias at the controls, Ashley and his lieutenant can begin to impress their stamp on Rangers. VIDEO Scroll down to see Ally McCoist in a tough Rangers press conference Ally McCoist could have manager Rangers for the final time against Livingston on Saturday +2 Ally McCoist could have manager Rangers for the final time against Livingston on Saturday It’s understood the Ibrox board could be prepared to stave off the wave of unrest at the potentially stormy meeting with a solid declaration of Ashley’s commitment and financial way forward. And the Newcastle United owner could be painted as the stricken club’s saviour if loans of up to £3m already handed to Rangers by him were to be written off. All of which could mean yesterday’s 2-0 victory over Livingston becoming one of McCoist’s last, if not his final game, in charge of Rangers. Following a midweek meeting with football board chairman Sandy Easdale and Llambias, McCoist remained as manager for the Championship game at Ibrox. But, if bolstered by a guarantee of cash, Rangers can tackle negotiations over the terms of McCoist’s notice period within the next fortnight in a bid to reach a settlement. Attention would then turn to his backroom staff, including assistant manager Kenny McDowall, first-team coach Ian Durrant and goalkeeping coach Jim Stewart, as work begins on establishing a new football structure. That would be preferable to the new men in charge than prolonging the agony of McCoist remaining in control of the squad until as long as next December. Billy Davies remains a prominent contender to replace McCoist in the hotseat. Ally McCoist gives a status update in tough Rangers press... Mike Ashley is keen to impress his stamp upon Rangers as soon as possible +2 Mike Ashley is keen to impress his stamp upon Rangers as soon as possible Those manoeuvres will raise the stakes in Rangers’ imminent disciplinary clash with the SFA. Last Monday, the governing body issued Ashley and the club notices of complaint for allegedly breaching rules related to his increasing influence in Rangers’ day-to-day running. Ashley steered clear three months ago when then chief executive Graham Wallace went to the market and raised an emergency £3million. Instead, the Newcastle supremo struck a deal with Hargreave Hale for their investment in order to strengthen his shareholding to 8.92 per cent. However, he will ensure his shareholding is no more than 29.9 per cent following any flotation, otherwise he would be legally-bound to make a bid to buy the entire company. Meanwhile, it has emerged Mark Hateley was advised by formerteam-mates to be careful about courting a relationship with the Easdale brothers, Sandy and James — he sat beside them at the recent games at Alloa and Palmerston — months before this week’s revelation of his fall-out with McCoist. Hateley had phoned Nacho Novo and tried to speak to one current player in a bid to extract information about McCoist’s coaching methods. The Rangers manager blanked attempts by Hateley in midweek to mend the broken relationship, furious that his old team-mate appears to have joined the boardroom camp of those who are opponents of the McCoist tenure.

From Sons of Struth FB. I have seen evidence that would make it clear as to why Norman Crighton was sacked. It would appear he to wanted to accept Dave Kings offer of investment and loans over the SD loans. That's now the three directors who wanted King not Ashley fell on their swords. The only missing link is why did the two who backed Ashley (Easdlae and Somers) manage to out vote the three who back King (Nash, Wallace and Crighton), could a lawyers letter from Ashley threatening action sway their decisions and lead to Nash walking? It's only a matter of time before the whole truth comes out. Our club is being mismanaged and run for the benefit of a few, not for the benefit of shareholders. As it stands we are still after two years unclear of who the faceless BPH and Marg actually are. Once we know, the picture will be much clearer. Remember Octopus and remember the name Joe Oliver. They may pop up again.

Yes just added that to my post. Voting was not even close, makes you wonder.
-
Just had a look at RF members vote on AGM resultutions. 5% either voted for Easdale or withheld their vote, for Somers it was 12%. We certainly have a problem within our support. I would have thought that within supporters who are actually buying shares the result would have been 0%. Why would any fan want these two cretins anywhere near our club? RF members also voted by large majorities against resuloutions 8 & 9.

AGM Poll Our AGM poll closed at midnight last night, however, we have been contacted by members asking if it could be reopened as they hadn't yet voted. As a result, we have reopened the poll and would encourage all members to use their opportunity to vote. As we have moved to a new website you are required to re register. If you did not receive the email it may have went into your junk/spam folder. The other way to register is as follows: • Go to http://www.therst.co.uk • Go to the Members Area • Click on Forgotten Password • Input the email address you originally registered with the RST. This will provide you with a password to log in and access the members area where you can vote in the AGM poll. Thanks for your continued support.

I refuse to believe that all the players we signed are duds or that they can't handle being a Rangers player. All the Scottish ones have regressed since coming to Ibrox and that includes Lee Wallace. A friend who is a Motherwell fan asked me a year ago what I thought of Nicky Law, I told him. He said that Law was outstanding for them for the previous two years. We also have Clark and Templeton who have not been able to hold down a first team place, all our team problems lie with the coaching staff. Simples.

Q: Your salary reverts back to £750,00. What do you think about it being made public? A: I worked for nothing for months. I decided to take a 45 per cent cut, I then took a 40 per cent cut. I’m not saying: “Give Ally a big pat on the back” but there’s a wee bit more to it than meets the eye. Other factors should be taken into account as well. What dies he mean here? Was his salary £1.36M took a reduction of 45% leaving £750K, took a further reduction of 40% leaving him at £400K before he handed in his notice? Note he decided to take 45% cut not the club!!

You thought wrong. Probably cannot afford the Armadillo.

From RST website AGM Resolutions 8 and 9 Looking at the resolutions put forward at the AGM, those relating to the election of board members seem fairly straightforward. You either fancy them or you don’t. Given their abject failure in every aspect of running the club surely only their masters will vote for them? What isn't quite as clear, certainly not to anyone unfamiliar with the Companies Act and a degree in legal double speak are resolutions 8 & 9. So having a friend more fluent in these things helps and here is how it was explained. On the face of it, with a few minor exceptions, they are very similar to the resolutions proposed last year. Resolution 8 is for existing shareholders and Resolution 9 allows non existing shareholders to purchase shares. Though not entirely clear it would seem that the resolution allowing non existing shareholders to buy shares kicks in only if existing shareholders have been given the opportunity to buy shares too. There are 2 different figures in resolution 8. The first part allows an issue of up to 50% of the current shares in an open offer and the second to issue up to 66.66% of current shares in a rights issue. Though as seems the norm from those in charge at our club these days, they seem to have slightly miscalculated the 50% figure. So what does it mean this time round? If these resolutions are not passed it will mean the club could only be funded by more loans. What would the loans be guaranteed against, how will they be repaid and what will the interest rate be? If these resolutions are passed the club should get some desperately needed equity investment. The issue is who will provide that equity and what will they get in return? Once the door is open to non existing shareholders who will rush in? Will it be Dave King, Brian Kennedy or more friends of Charles Green and Mike Ashley ? The club needs cash desperately and the best way is through equity investment and not more loans. Opening that door to new shareholders has a downside depending who comes along, however no equity means loans and the baggage that comes with them. It is hard to imagine new shareholders being any worse than those who currently call the shots at Ibrox so I intend voting for resolutions 8 and 9. - See more at: http://www.therst.co.uk/news/agm-resolutions-8-and-9/#sthash.u57hHsMw.dpuf

The letter is as follows: We are writing as concerned shareholders regarding the conduct of the upcoming AGM for Rangers International Football Club PLC on Monday 22nd December 2014. At the AGM last year, held in December in the Ibrox Stadium Main Stand, the board used the excuse of the cold weather to cut short questions regarding their running of the company. They left queues of shareholders with questions unanswered. Mr Somers also chose to take multiple questions at a time which did not allow any chance for relevant follow up. Since then, we have seen what we regard as the further mismanagement of the company, inexplicable decisions on financing the company going forward and further undue influence applied to the PLC board by shareholders Sandy Easdale and Mike Ashley. With this in mind, we are writing to ensure that there will be no repeat of the board’s and particularly Mr Somers’ behaviour this year. We expect that all questions from shareholders will be answered, as they are asked, and that follow up questions will be allowed within reason. We do not expect multiple questions to be taken at a time. We do no expect Mr Somers to attempt to cut short shareholders rights on the basis of the weather. The company, and for many of us our football club, is in dire straits. The board remain unwilling to engage properly with their concerned shareholders and customers and this is the only opportunity we may have for another year to get the answers we require on the decisions they have made. We expect your full support in this matter and thank you for it in anticipation.
