  1. to put it simply the Hebdo cartoons were offensive towards islam but the issue was whether they had the right to do it.. anyone who liked the hebdo cartoons whether privately or by retweeting or sharing facebook pics etc etc are no different to Chris. any other conclusion just doesn't make sense.

  2. Certainly seems to be all out war on the new regime's association with high profile fans. Big test of Paul Murray's mettle ahead.

     

    Some criticism of CG may be fair but it comes from hypocrites & mischief-makers so has minimal merit. Club reaction should be low-key.

    I hope they do let it ride out. Take the Guidetti Hun song story last week. It's died a death, but having said that I think they will keep the pot boiling longer on any rangers misfortunes..

  3. With this mornings DR headline about the Neil Lennon bomber guy, basically any bad news for Rangers is good news for these bastards. Shows up Paul murray attempts to toadie up to them as futile as they WILL fuck us over at any opportunity. Message to the Board. The fans don't want any cooperation or favour shown to DR and BBC etc. With Internet who needs them anyway? ?

  4. It's always a gamble appointing a manager. Just ask Manchester United. A good manager at one club doesn't always become a good manager at another club. Nevertheless, any club with serious ambition should always be on the lookout for the best candidate.

     

    I do not believe Rangers has done that. It has apparently approached Smith, who turned the job down( I've heard it suggested that he would have taken the job on a full-time basis but I have no idea if this is true), and then picked out McCall who has now accepted. Other rumours suggest that Gough and Davies were spoken to, but this is just speculation.

     

    Stuart McCall has always been popular with Rangers fans. He is approachable and played the game in a way that our support likes - by giving everything. No Rangers fan will want him to fail and I wish him well.

     

    My concern is the new board. If it opted for Walter Smith, that was its first mistake. If it spoke to Davies, Gough and McCall and no-one else, that was its second gaffe.

     

    The wind of change has blown the the club and left the jobs for the boys mentality rooted within it. Did the new board not prepare for this moment? Did it not look further afield at other options? Did it only look as far as those who were close by - just like the Rangers board when we needed a new CEO and Craig Mather got the job.

     

    I hope this works out for Stuart McCall, but if the board has been as limited in its managerial search as it appears to have been, this move deserves to fail.

    correct me if im wrong but isn't this a short term gig...

  5. Personally absolutely delighted that John Bennett has been appointed to the Board of Rangers.

     

    Not fussed either way re Chris Graham.

     

    Brahim if I were a former client of yours I'd be disconcerted to think that your concern for the welfare of their investments ceased when the commissions dried up.

     

    For those of you not around at the time here's some links to the original John Bennett threads when we were in our darkest hours and need of serious investment......

    Not many coming out of that sorry episode with their heads held high.

  6. should be used to pay off Ally as he has been the Rangers Youth biggest enemy in years... absolutely brilliant that Colin stood up to Lambias etc and not hand this cash over earlier..

  7. Interesting to see how divided people are on this. Didn't take much did it?

    Other than cg I have no idea who the other dudes are but it seems they have some history... Whilst to be convinced that murray can effectively lead this ship now he has control I do trust that any money I spend on watching Rangers is not being "stolen". If they get the team sorted out and by that I mean the right structure not chucking a few million at some has been manager, then I will spend again... All this other stuff is just playing games and rewarding allies etc and is of no interest to me.

  8. But would you bet against it?

     

    It would be a cost effective solution for KingCo and since they appear to have given up on promotion they have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

     

    for me it would signal a return to the lets stick with what we know line, a concern I have with Paul Murray. A new start needs to start with the correct messages being sent out. this would reek of poor old ally had it tough blah blah just like Walter was saying the other day..

  9. I don't ever read the Record so I don't care about it. Those who are upset should contemplate the following question:

     

    Who gets furthest in politics, those who compromise or those who refuse to?

    Mm not sure I like the politician analogy. One thing I've learned is that politicians are all lying bar stewards on the take with only a few exceptions. .... I want better for our club.....
