You said, are you serious to Mack ? And I said to you, I think he is. What part of that baffles you line?

Are you being serious?

I think Mack is lime lol

Would ye stoap moanin about moaners a luv moanin.

Lolololol....

to be honest....I'd rather not know who he is, unless he's pulling on a blue shirt on a Sat afternoon. To me this shows signs of a real move forward. I have to really think who is on the board now - a couple of years back, I could have rhymed the board off nae bother.

Personally Dart I'm only concerned what's on the park if I had to read everything about what's happening in the boardroom i wouldn't be able to sleep...

We seem to have a lot of moaners on here nowadays

What was it like the last couple of years Walter?

I just looked it up, it was an U21's game, at the time of the goal, Arsenal were winning 1-0. Showboating like that when 1-0 down is a little irresponsible in my opinion.

 

Kanu did similar for Arsenal against Boro in '99 (I think) but they were 3-0 up at that point. No issue with that, the game was comfortably won.

We never slagged off oduwa for showboating ?

so normal in fact that initially I had no idea who Stewart Robertson was....

Tut tut know your rangers darthter....

AFTER seeing the previous two Rangers AGM’s descend into chaos with the previous board being castigated by those in attendance, current Managing Director Stewart Robertson admits it will be nice to return to a sense of normality.

 

While still anticipating plenty of questions of a serious nature, he is looking forward to providing answers to queries of a more trivial manner too.

 

He explained: “We were saying the other day it will be nice to be back to normality and have an AGM talking about the price of pies and the colour of the socks.

 

No doubt there will be some discussion about other topics but it’s all about returning to normal – that is what we want to do, we want to have a normal football club.

 

“It’s all about the football and we’re a football club; everything the board, Andrew Dickson and I do is there to support Mark and David and the football team, the first team squad and the academy – it’s all about football.”

 

When next year’s results are announced, they will reflect the work of the current board in its entirety, and while a loss can still be anticipated, they should be much, much healthier.

 

Robertson added: “I know fans will see a healthy financial position next year, the turnover should be increased, there may still be a loss but it should be much smaller than we’ve incurred in the past 12 months.

 

“They will see a much more settled report, investment in the infrastructure and the people; I think we have probably recruited in excess of a dozen people seen the summer in key roles.

 

“We’ve brought in our own tradesmen to try and improve the stadium so all in all it should be a much more settled picture that we see in next year’s report.”

Thats a big spread on a rumour Der? Another young kid for our reserves. We're needing experienced players we won't win the spl with weans...

That thought did occur to me!

Well let's hope every player were after and they sign them disappear like Scotty...

We will need more than that, given that three of our regular starters are leaving next summer. We must add a touch (or two) of genuine quality to break down these stubborn defences that are only going to be better organised and harder to breach as we go up in quality of opponent. Our defending (from front to back) has to improve many times over or the St Johnstone scenario of being picked off will be commonplace as our opponents get better at taking their few chances.

 

I just hope they realise how far away we are from being a good side and are planning appropriately. It would be easy to think we only need to tweak a little given our results to date, but the progress needs to be stepped up.

 

Talk of bringing in only 1 or 2 in January to protect "harmony" is all good and well, but that means it will have to be 7 or 8 new faces in the summer and then hit the ground running right away in the top tier with virtually a brand new team again. I think the better way to do it will be to bring in 3/4 players each window to replace the ones that are not up to it or are returning after loan spells. Taking sound bites from the manager and board, I just have some concerns (not losing sleep or anything!) that we are going to go into next season undercooked.

Chill tannoch chill lol

Llambias or Leach?

Yes, let's lambast leach oh wait..

Im far from panicking Bruno, believe me I am quite enjoying the football this season. I am however not getting carried away with what I am seeing as when I look at each player in our team I dont see anybody I would call a good player capable of winning titles and representing us in European competition. They are good enough for where we are now, end of. To that end I am star-gazing a little and seeing what a huge amount of work has still to be done to build our squad up over the next two windows to a competitive squad for go for 55. Our task is being helped by our main rivals continued down-sizing, but I would expect them to strengthen in summer 16.

 

Their model has been to buy 2-4 young-ish European players at around £1-£2M and hope that one of them developes into a sellable asset for £10M. Van Dijk, Wanyama etc. This balances their books for them. That is something I would hope our management are keen to replicate.

 

What I mean by our off-field squad, is basically the guys who will be buying our players. The Chairman, board, Robertson, McParland, Warburton & Dickson. All these guys have to working together and be good enough at their jobs for us to grow and get things right going forward. I have not seen anything to the contrary but the big tests remain in the future.

Let's wait and see tannoch as I've said many times it's just the beginning. The men the magic hat has brought on board have worked with him before I'm are we'll reap the benefit's and by the time we take our place in the spl I reckon they'll be at least four new players in our starting eleven...

Think we have caught one here.

Good catch bearger lol

I don't think its time to panic yet tannoch, dont forget this team is only three months into their task and they have been excellent and growing with every game I agree we haven't got quality cover for some key positions but theres certainly no need to panic yet. What do you mean by 'the model another club?' and 'our off-field squad?'...

Don't be surprised when the authorities take away the kids toys then...

He's lost the plot....

As I've said before don't look for us signing any player from the Scottish league's in January..

All good memories.My first final was 64 v Dundee was a bit overawed at size of crowd,I was 14.

Favourite cup final memory "Big Tam's" six inch screamer:rfcbouncy:

They say '64' treble was our best Mack my first final was '70' big djs and was at the centenary cup final '73' jammed inside hampden like sardines...

On this day 32 years ago big jock Wallace took over the teddys for the second time....

We all know fine well what the other clubs idiot fans did on Sunday, but....

 

 

 

 

 

...I know which ones are innocent until proven guilty.

Allegedly....

Well done for the funny posts now it is time to be serious it's no use criticising other clubs idiot fans if our club is being brought down by such behavior so get real and report them if you know who they are.

I don't know any English rangers fans who stay in Lancaster

The point I was making was they'll take away our fabulous card displays (and trust me they will) and id hate that to happen....end of.

It's a very thin gauge of card (or thicker gauge of paper) and the only way someone could be badly hurt is from the 'sharp' end of a paper aeroplane going straight into the eye. That's extremely unlikely but by the letter of the law it is a safety concern so people should think twice about doing it.

 

I'd imagine the club may receive a warning from the SPFL about it but as long as the likes of Motherwell and Celtic fans going unpunished for much worse examples of, erm, hooliganism then our card displays will rightly continue.

We're talking about rangers here Frankie and I see your point of course the rest will get away with it

The Casey Jones loyal Ian?
