Nobody has decided to use the money as yet. Are you deliberately miss quoting on this?
-
Did you ask for your money back when the RFFF paid 22K to Dunfermline ? But you want it back when it says a vote will be held to help a fan?

Copied from FF. I am always amazed at fans who are so supportive of me and SoS, It takes my breath away as I dont consider myself any different from thousands of bears who feel the same as me, for some reason our wee facebook page has grown arms and legs in 6 months and many have the same thoughts and opinions as us. I never thought for 1 minute that so much could have been achieved in our time but none of it could have been achieved without the help of hundreds of bears. I feel uncomfortable with the current situation and fans willing to put their own money on the table for my benefit. I really dont know what to say as no words can describe how proud i feel that so many bears are willing to stand beside me and support me during the last few days. I cant thank you all enough for the words of encouragement I have received recently and it does feel as if you are talking about someone else as I honestly feel like this is not me who has done these things that you all talk of but Im watching over the shoulder of this other guy, The whole thing has snowballed over time and most things we have done have been reactive and we never thought our efforts would have been as great over the last few months. If others had not joined us and helped along the way then no one would have known who sons of struth were. I am no superfan Im just a bear that found a voice and to my amazement so many liked what they heard and joined us, Thank you again for your support and encouragement Craig

You come across as anti everyone & everything to do with fans having a say in the club.
-
These "people" not able to read the message on the side facing them? You really must try harder.
-
Read my post, they don't matter because they are so small. You are insulting to the majority with your last line.
-
I think the splits/factions issue is exaggerated. We will never get 100% agreement but if you look at the red and blue demos organised by SOS/UOF it obvious that a majority are wishing for change and concur with SOS/UOF. There are a couple of very small groups who seem incapable of reaching or wanting to have a united front, but they don't matter.

MARCH 25, 2014 UNION OF FANS STATEMENT 25TH MARCH 2014 by Union of Fans The Union of Fans (UoF) is delighted that Dave King has publicly stated his impressive plans for Rangers via a number of newspaper interviews. His vision for the club is extremely welcome as is the personal financial commitment he is willing to make. Like all Rangers fans, Dave King and UoF want to see the club back operating to high standards on and off the pitch and in the boardroom. We firmly believe that the involvement of Dave King is the best chance of those standards being attained in the short, medium and long term. It was clear from our discussions with him last week that the £30m+ Mr King is willing to invest is crucial to take the club back to a competitive level and improve the infrastructure and facilities. The club has been neglected, that cannot continue. Only once this investment has been made will Rangers be able to live within its means, something we all want for the longer term future. Until then Dave King has made it clear he will do what is necessary to get Rangers back to where we belong and where we can be self-sustainable. It is also important that Dave King chose to make his views public to the widest possible range of Rangers supporters by conducting interviews with four different newspapers with a combined readership of over 2M people. There can no longer be any criticism of him only speaking privately to supporters groups, though he has pledged to continue that important dialogue in order that the Union of Fans can keep people updated on events. We would now ask the board to indicate publicly, as a matter of urgency, whether they are prepared to accept Dave King’s offer of massive investment. The ball is firmly with the Rangers PLC board, in particular with Chief Executive Officer, Graham Wallace and Chairman, David Somers. Dave King has put a figure on what Rangers need and has shown his commitment to, and ambition for, the club he has supported all his life. Do Mr Wallace and Mr Somers agree with his figures and if they do, how do they propose to raise this large sum of money without Dave King? These are extremely serious corporate matters, therefore they are matters for the PLC board and not for any small, minority shareholder who is not a member of that board and who has no such high level corporate experience. The corporate reputations of Mr Wallace and Mr Somers now rest on their next move. We also note with dismay that Rangers director Sandy Easdale is continuing to pursue what we consider to be a confrontational and frivolous course of legal action against Sons of Struth. We would ask him to remember what it means to be a Rangers director and act accordingly if he wishes to enjoy the privileges of that position.

That's a classic coming from people who attack Rangers fans who happen to marry RC's, who attack the Founders Trail guys. What a pathetic bunch the VB are, the real ubers or so they think. They certainly don't speak for me.

Can you show the rest of us mortals any evidence you have that Craig "choose to get on the wrong side of the law"? I'm just reading through this thread and it's the second time you have assumed the guy is guilty without any evidence and before a court case. Strange behaviour for a Rangers fan.

How do you know Craig is on the wrong side of the law? Easdale has to prove it in court, funny you think Craig is guilty before any court case.

Rangers fans chief blasts Arab 'safety' fears over Ibrox semi-final Published on 21 March 2014 Chris Jack RANGERS fans chief Drew Roberton today hit back at talk that Dundee United supporters should fear for their safety at Ibrox next month. The two clubs will meet in a William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final on April 12, with tensions stoked up this week due to Tannadice chairman Stephen Thompson's war of words with the SFA. Thompson is unhappy that the last-four tie will be played at Ibrox and both he and boss Jackie McNamara have voiced their displeasure at the ticket allocation United will receive. ArabTrust chairman Steven Hughes infuriated the Light Blue legions with comments yesterday that claimed fan safety was one of the 'biggest risks' and United supporters were 'nervous' regarding their safety at the stadium. Rangers Supporters Association spokesman Roberton told SportTimes: "Everybody is entitled to their opinion, although it might not be one that is shared by many. "If they don't want to come to Ibrox, that is entirely up to them. It will be more tickets for Rangers supporters if they don't turn up. "I am not aware of any trouble between the Rangers and Dundee United fans and I don't see why there should be. "Ill-advised comments like that are not needed. I think they should have given some thought to it before they made outrageous remarks like that." Ibrox boss Ally McCoist has moved to play down the growing animosity between the clubs but there is likely to be a powderkeg atmosphere inside Ibrox as the SPFL League One champions and McNamara's side bid for a final berth against Aberdeen or St Johnstone. Roberton said: "There was always a potential for this situation to happen when the venues were announced. "Maybe people thought that Rangers, in their position, wouldn't get to this stage of the competition and it wouldn't be a problem. "But there was always a possibility of Rangers being at Ibrox for the semi-final. "They should have made a noise about it in October when this was announced."

You seem to have at the very least a defeatist attitude, is it because you are not involved with UOF ? You also have a very low opinion of fellow fans if you think they will put their seats before their club.
-
Yes we must drive these spivs out of our club. Hope the UOF have plans to up the anti! not the time to hold back.
