  1. You don't understand. Re. emails, I have no idea what you are talking about. But, then, I am just a moderately computer literate Rangers supporter.
  2. As you clearly have no idea what this internal matter is, you are speculating for the sake of it. A remarkably futile endeavour.
  3. But there you are. We don't know what the issues are. Not much point in getting all worked up about something we don't actually know about is there?
  4. It is only serious in the minds of the online community. It doesn't change the RST vote at the AGM and nobody knows what is going to happen post AGM.
  5. Having talked to a couple of people at the Trust and having read various comments online, it looks like a couple of people on the Trust board have got into an argument and one of them has gone running to the mhedia presumably because he/she didn't get their way. Not very professional but there you are. Naturally, the online bootboys have jumped on this with relish even though nobody actually knows the detail of what has happened. It isn't really a story because the position of the RST with regard to the AGM issues is defined by its members who have voted on the matter. The RST board merely reflects the views of the membership.
  6. I think the results of the vote may have been the catalyst for the present controversy.
  7. McMurdo, as usual, is full of the smelly brown stuff. The RST has tried hard to see both sides of the story and has asked for - and got - meetings with both the Requisitioners and the Club. Unlike certain other groups, minutes of these meetings have been published promptly. The stance of the RST with regard to the requisitioners is reflected by the voting of its members on the RST site. In addition, the RST has worked closely with other groups such as the Assembly and the Association. McMurdo's diatribe smacks of a divide and rule tactic. Clearly the tactic now is to paint the RST as the bogeyman even though neither McMurdo not anyone else has been able to come out with any hard facts. No doubt it will go down well in some circles but it does Rangers and the Rangers support a gross disservice. It is a source of sadness that some Rangers fans seem to delight in sticking the knife into other Rangers fans. One might think that we already had enough enemies without also turning on our own.
  8. If, indeed, there has been misconduct in this matter then it is for the RST and RST members to deal with it. However, in the absence of any concrete information, I prefer not to get involved in self-indulgent attacks on one of our own. I would suggest that we hold further comments until there has been a statement from the RST and until we have some clarification on what actually happened.
  9. If that were the case then we would be looking at a resignation that happened over three years ago.
  10. There are, sadly, a number of Rangers fans who seem to hate Mark Dingwall more than they hate those people who have really tried to damage our club. Personally, I have interacted with him a few times and never had a problem. It would be unfortunate if the STV story was wrong and wrong because either another Rangers fan or somebody closely connected to the Board had deliberately fed them disinformation.
  11. Stockbridge is damaged goods. In my view it isn't so much a question of whether he will resign as when he resigns.
  12. I lost several thousand pounds when we went into administration. But I still put up another £500 via the RST at the IPO. There will be no more investment from me unless 1) there is a Board I can trust, 2) there is a far greater degree of transparency than we have now and 3) Stockbridge is no longer at the club.
  13. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Green was a street fighter and I admired that in him. Unfortunately, he also had some difficulties with the truth, with making rash promises, with saying stupid things and, allegedly, in using our club as his personal ATM. From my own point of view, there are more important issues to be addressed than getting into a fight with the mhedia.
  14. Boss is an accountant and a pretty good one at that. But, from what I can see, he tends to stick to the numbers rather than the bigger strategic picture. Me, I'm a pretty poor accountant. But I am generally rather good at understanding what a business needs to do to be successful. While I think that McCoist seems to be sorting out the playing side of the equation, I am not convinced that either the current Board or the candidates proposed by the requisitioners are the right people to attract the millions we will need in new funding and then to use it strategically to ensure a sustainable future for the club.
  15. Here is the fundamental issue. At some point next year the Club is going to have to go back to the capital markets for more funding. We know that and have known it since the financial statements were released a couple of months ago. So we need to ask the question, does the current Board have the ability to convince investors - and I include the support here - that they are suitable custodians for millions of pounds of new investment money? Because, if they do not, then we are looking at a very bleak future for Rangers.
  16. Andy certainly speaks for me. There is a reason I almost never go on RM any more. If the RM style of 'debate' were to become prevalent on Gersnet then I think it would be the kiss of death for this site.
  17. Pretty stupid of the Vanguard Bears in what is a hostile mhedia environment to offer up hostages to fortune in this way.
