    Well, who do they think they're talking to? My 14 month old wee lassie wouldn't buy the crap these senior players are shovelling to us. There's only so much 'we need to play better', 'we can't afford to lose more points' and 'I'm still unfit so it's not my fault' nonsense one can take. How about a bit of honesty for once? 'We've been crap, it's unacceptable, we're sorry, here, why don't you take half my weekly wage and pay for some away fans' travel this weekend to make up for it'? Now that would be worth a bit of respect.

    It's a mighty big room... Enough patronising talk - more action please!

    Not official yet. Will try to substantiate it over the weekend.

    Cal: Only Beasley could really be considered a genuine left midfield player capable of playing there consistently. And even he has never really showed great quality (or consistency) in his career. Lafferty, Novo and McCulloch are not left midfield players and while all three (plus Adam, Naismith and Aaron) may be useful deputies in emergencies we should have signed a genuine player for this position long before now. Of course all the names players can play there. As could Whittaker and Steven Smith I'm sure but when you're playing in a position that isn't your natural one, you're lowering the chance of consistency and improvement. As such, it's rather galling that the manager is complaining about something he's to blame for. I'm quite frankly sick of the patronising nonsense coming out of our club from senior people.

    From contacts: This will result in crowd trouble if they try to arrest people en masse while ignoring songs about the IRA.

    The simple fact of the matter is Smith was himself negligent in not buying a proper left midfield player for the position. This part of our team has been neglected for a number of years now (since the days of McCann and Albertz) so while the players obviously have to take their share of the blame, the manager should bear the responsibility here.

    MF: Nope, not all other sites were invited to run it. But they are more than welcome to take the questions and do so if they like. I'd have hoped most people would have seen the survey when it was released on NewsNow and taken part that way but appreciate that's definitely not an ideal solution to ensure maximum take-up. I asked RM yesterday because I use that site on a daily basis. I don't really use any other site nowadays (although I still read Gersforums and FF occasionally) so didn't approach them for input. I'm doubt those two sites would have been interested anyway. Like I say, other sites are more than welcome to ask the same/similar questions and submit their answers to me if they want them collated together with the Gersnet/RM results.

    Mate, The survey was posted on the main site (and NewsNow) so it wasn't limited to Gersnet members. Another site has also posted the survey with nearly 50 responses over the last day - the answers being pretty similar so far.
  9. Frankie
    Might well be Craig... Luckily for you I doubt many of those people will be looking for you to renew them for you...
  10. Frankie
    I agree - hence the reason for trying to pro-actively obtain some feedback. Of course it shouldn't be small unofficial forums doing this kind of thing but it's interesting nonetheless. You're obviously interested in the subject. Why not write us an article on what kind of organisation you'd like to see?
  11. Frankie
    No, not selective sampling.... The survey was posted on the main site and anyone could vote. Perhaps some read it wrong and thought it meant 'have you been an active member' as opposed 'are you currently'...? Remember, generally speaking, Trust members are perhaps more of the committed fans interested in representation so such a survey on the wires might attract their online members. 40 out of 1000+ members isn't too out of synch considering the poll is aimed at such people and many Trust members (past or present) are active online.

    68 people isn't a great number. Unfortunately, despite the survey appearing on NewsNow, we can't force people to take part. It does give some interesting answers though - in an empirical sense as stated clearly at the outset - which are worth discussing. Another site (RangersMedia) has also today published the survey with around another 40 responses so far so that takes us over 100. The survey was done more to gauge general opinions rather than take some sort of scientific poll to minute levels. I'm comfortable enough with the results and can only lament that the official organisations involved seem incapable of organising something similar in order to achieve improvement in the area. Gersnet is always looking to catalyse debate and the last year has seen supporters' representation stagnate for disappointing reasons so we hoped a simple survey would perhaps awaken some people from their comfort zones. At least we can say we tried.

    That's true but unfortunately Sony don't seem to interested in providing any... And that new user F_rankie would probably win anyway...
  14. Frankie
    Tonel and Stranzl both interest me but as has been said we must move on fringe players before we sign new ones.
  15. Frankie
    Going by the number of entries, I may have to allow mods/admin to win prizes... Really surprised by the lack of interest actually.
  16. Frankie
    Bump... Still very few entries for this excellent competition. Expected a lot more pm's.
  17. Frankie
    I've no problem with the club finding ways of raising funds. But, as usual, it's the fans having to fork out for the privilege of watching a friendly. Not for me.
  18. Frankie
    Well said cal..
  19. Frankie
    Right, comfortable beds are now banned because they cause back problems amongst the workforce. Now, you've to sleep on a hard wooden floor say the government and the police will enforce this new law. "That's fine", says Gazza!
  20. Frankie
    Really am astounded by that. You really think the proletariat are incapable of challenging what they feel are unfair issues and should bow to any instruction placed upon them?

    Onto the final part of our supportersââ?¬â?¢ representation debate ââ?¬â?? this week weââ?¬â?¢re analysing the results of our simple survey and taking the conclusions from them in conjunction with the comments from Jim Templeton and John MacMillan. Please note 68 people took part in the survey and weââ?¬â?¢ll represent their answers to each question as a percentage. http://www.gersnetonline.net/newsite/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=721&Itemid=2

    So, the authorities tell you to stop drinking beer tomorrow... - itself something that causes more problems in this country than famine chants. Do you do it? Or do you challenge such a ruling?
  23. Frankie
    Price isn't confirmed but while I've probably inflated it to a degree, I wouldn't be surprised to see a fee of around that figure.
  24. Frankie
    Sorry those examples don't apply to this issue. In this case it is valid to question the coverage and interpretation of this 'song (actually a four sentence chant) and deem it inaccurate enough to challenge the attention placed upon on it. Similarly, one must also ask why other songs don't have the same attention placed on them.

    = �£40 per ticket No thanks.
