13/11/2014 JOHNNYK BGC Counter Credit £19.50 Balance £315.16 That's 18 on the list filling up nicely now; just 23 days to go. -
A reasonable suggestion.
-
That's correct, the info about the numbers who voted was given to me in confidence; but I was not told that the meeting today was confidential nor would I have accepted that.
-
It is entirely possible that I upset some people (I am a not exactly a wall flower as you know) and more to the point some board members knew that I was going to run for Secretary and may not have liked that. I got the impression that it was two different complaints but since they wouldn't tell me I don't know. I don't know about strange but it certainly is contra any kind of normal procedure, that I've ever come across. When I raised that point I was told that it (normal procedure) did not apply as it was not an employment situation.

Everyone had to sign Rangers' IT Policy but I don't think it covers this meeting as there was no IT involved.
-
I didn't need anyone's permission; anyway I told them I would be posting the news on a couple of forums tonight and they didn't object.
-
One and the same; I am Jean-ClaudeDarcheville on RM!
-
Yes I am. I guess I've been naive about it and took their assurances at face value.
-
A little over half an hour but it could have been finished in 5 mins. Whatever points I tried to raise Ms Munro basically said, no point in discussing, the decision's already been taken. About 20 miles but I brought the car into town and went out to Ibrox and then home. Thanks.

If you are referring to the match v Alloa this Saturday, the answer is no. I received and dealt with a complaint about Cowdenbeath but that is the only specific match that I have had anything on.
-
Nothing I can do about it; I'm gutted obviously after 57 years supporting the Club, I was honoured to be elected and thought I was doing what was required putting forward fans questions and disseminating information on the Club's decison making process. Clearly I was mistaken.
-
I am pretty much convinced that your assessment is correct. I believe I was proving to be too much of a thorn in their flesh and perhaps by extension in the flesh f some of the Board members. One thing is clear, the Club are running the RFB. Edit: I am not saying they should shut down the RFB but folks can make their own judgement on that.
-
No I am not, though I might yet get a letter. I wouldn't want to steal Dave Smith's thunder but perhaps at the end of the night. BTW when are you signing up?
-
Sorry, TB, ask who about what?
-
I don't know they didn't say. All I know is that whatever the allegations by the other Board members were, they were not put to me. Basically the meeting opened with Irene Munro saying they had had these unspecified allegations and I was being removed from the Board. I complained about the lack of due process but this fell on deaf ears. It was a fait accompli.
-
Don't think that's correct; I got a lot of thanks for what I posted on there about the RFFF.
-
I think you will understand that in the circumstances I'd rather not.
-
No they didn't and they said that if they told me the nature of the complaints I would be able to deduce who it was.

I was “invited” to attend a meeting at Ibrox today with Rangers’ Director of Communications, Irene Munro and Jim Hannah, Supporters’ Liaison Officer. I had to ask three times by email about the nature of the meeting and eventually was told only that it was “to discuss complaints raised against you by other fans board members”. I asked to be supplied with the details of the complaints before the meeting but this was denied. At the meeting I was told that as a result of two complaints by colleagues on the Fans Board and one complaint from a member of the public, I was being removed from the Fans Board. The complaint from the member of the public was in connection with or as a result of information that I posted about the Rangers Fans Fighting Fund. I was not told the nature of the complaints by members of the Fans Board. These are the relevant sections of the Constitution: 17.Conduct of members of the RFB 17.1 The Elected Representatives shall, in exercising his/her functions as a member of RFB, act in the interests of the Club and RFB; and, in particular, must (a) seek, in good faith, to ensure that RFB acts in a manner which is in accordance with its objects (as set out in clause 3 this constitution); (b) act with the care and diligence which it is reasonable to expect of a person who is managing the affairs of another person; and © in circumstances giving rise to the possibility of a conflict of interest between RFB or the Club and any other party (i) put the interests of the RFB and the Club before that of the other party, in taking decisions as a member of the RFB; or (ii) where any other duty prevents him/her from doing so, disclose the conflicting interest to the RFB and the Club and refrain from participating in any discussions or decisions involving the other Elected Representatives with regard to the matter in question. (d) If, in the opinion of the Club, any Elected Representative is in breach of paragraphs (a), (b) and © above, or in the opinion of the Club, brings the Club into disrepute, the Club shall have the power to terminate that individuals Membership and remove them as an Elected Representative with immediate effect and without notice. There is no right of Appeal. The Fans Board had agreed an interim Code of Conduct which includes up to three warnings but this was not applied because it provides for complaints to be referred to the Office Bearers and there are no Office Bearers in place at this time. I was told that in the opinion of the Club I have not been acting in the interests of the Fans Board and that my position was not tenable, so I was being removed. I was given the opportunity to resign, which I declined. I was then told that Rangers would issue a statement saying that I had “left the Fans Board” but I asked that if they were removing me they issue a statement accordingly.

You can ask Dave Smith about both matches if you come along to the Gersnet Dinner on 6 December. Plug, plug.....
-
Isn't that a lot to do with the fact that for the past two/three seasons we've been playing "smaller" teams every week (Hearts and Hibs now excepted).

It didn't happen quite like that, but yes indeed Craig, I got my own percentage and the winning margin in rounded numbers and then I got all the exact votes at the same time so I worked out the exact percentages.
