  1. How can you go from being one of the fittest hardest working teams around to this embarrassment in the space of six months? No hunger, no desire, bereft of leadership, no belief, a complete destruction of player value. It's as if we've swapped double expresso's for mogadons.
  2. After today's stupendous display why not go along to Ibrox on Tuesday to watch Rangers rout Ajax, ah it's sold out you say! We have a few spares in the Govan Rear section 5 level with the centre circle, can be configured to suit as adult, concessions or juveniles and can seat multiples together or just singles. All face value.
  3. You'd think they'd address the boardroom concerns closer to home first rather than lecture others. Perhaps they view their members to be an irrelevant inconvenience in govetnance matters.
  4. Just another cheap publicity stunt. Do they not realise they have next to zero credibility with the average Rangers fan?
  5. Tis only a Poundland version compared to the Harrods ones elsewhere. Better than nothing but should be better.
  6. Was'nt Murray's purchase of us mainly simply a case of him taking over the overdraft rather than a cash purchase?
  7. They should be investing directly in Rangers surely?
  8. The handball was never a penalty, his arms were by his side he didn't make his body intentionally bigger and in any case the ball came off his own foot.
  9. erstwhile /ˈəːstwʌɪl/ Learn to pronounce adjective former. "the erstwhile president of the company" Similar: former old past one-time sometime as was ex- late then previous prior foregoing quondam whilom Opposite: present future adverb ARCHAIC formerly. "Mary Anderson, erstwhile the queen of America's stage"
  10. I note it being reported elsewhere that our erstwhile Chairman threatened to put us into adminstration unless his loan was repaid, the one with tge 8% coupon iirc. I'm sure he had the clubs best interests at heart though.
  11. Whilst Kings public utterances are certainly more consumer friendly a look under under the bonnet may result in a different conclusion. Personally I'd opt a strong well known high profile person from the business or peferably political spheres. As much as it grates the Fritzl doppelganger appointing Dr Death was an extremely astute piece of business. Like you I'd love an open and frank AGM but such beasts don't appear to exist anywhere nowadays.
  12. I get what you're saying I really do. However I view the current Board as just another stage of our recovery I don't view them as permanent fixtures, they like players should be viewed as organic constantly changing in a sort of evolution rather an endless revolutions. Obviously the pandemic and it's consequences drastically altered what would have been the Boards plans (I concede the same applies to all clubs). I think part of the current anti Board sentiment can be laid at their own door as it was never fully explained just how big a mess the club was in every single department something that goes back to the days of our old friend Murray. That's not an excuse for the current Boards shortcomings however I think we can all agree compared to their predecessors they're relatively minor and certainly don't threaten the clubs very existance like the 3 previous regimes. I'm inclined to lean towards better the devil you know for now, change will come in the Boardroom it's foolish to argue otherwise but surely we need to make sure the baton is passed on to the right people as we all know the consequences of what can unfold. I share the same frustrations as everyone else at our regression under GvB which is undoubtedly rolling towards the inevitable conclussion. What I don't share is the clamour for return of King the notion of him wanting to invest more in Rangers is hilarious or the belief that there's a sugar daddy willing to pump £m's into a Scottish club or even that some consortium of investors led by Ms Fox will lead us to glory. I suspect you feel pretty much the same. I honestly think that the covid crap not occured the Boardroom would indeed have a different complexion that it currently has but by the same token I'm grateful that they didn't all bugger off and try and get their money back and even of them stayed and dug deep just yo kerp us going. I'm certain your wish for change will be fulfilled at what rate that change will arrive I honestly don't have a clue but it will.
  13. Whilst it's incumbent that we keep an eye on the Boardroom I'm reluctant to compare what we have now to the Murray regime. For starters they're playing with their own money not the banks, there is no one with an overwhelming dominating shareholding, they are in the main Rangers fans and contrary to what people think they actually get it. They won't take us down the same road as Murray and we should at least thank them for that. I was way to late to start questioning Murray, it took the spunking of £12m (of someone else's money naturally) before I realised it was only going to end one way. I totally get where you're coming from and don't dispute that concern is genuinely held. I myself have felt the wrath of the masses for not running with the herd, it can put you in a lonely place.
  14. Tillman putting in a lot more effort than most so far today. Anyone still labouring under the illusion the manager still carries the dressing room?
  15. I've been concerned for a while now about our medical side esoecially in regards to recovery times which appear to be frankly ridiculous.
  16. A point for the Yankophiles to ponder for every John Henry there's a Gillet and Hicks! Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it.
  17. I'm struggling to fathom whether its actual fitness levels or players that simply can't be arsed to play for the manager, probably a but of both. Either should be cause for alarm.
  18. We'd be as well with Liz Truss in the dugout. This cannot continue much longer it's utterly excruciating.
