A statement issued by the club reads:- Rangers Football Club today (Wednesday) announced it has appointed Media House International Ltd as Public Relations consultants for the Club's ongoing anti-sectarian campaign. Media House, which has offices in Glasgow, Edinburgh, London and New York, will provide strategic advice and lobbying expertise to the Club on communicating its range of anti-sectarian initiatives and policies. Media House will work with Rangers to ensure fans, football authorities, the media, politicians, the Scottish Executive and campaigning groups are aware of the extensive activities the Club is undertaking to tackle sectarianism amongst the minority of its support. Martin Bain, Chief Executive of Rangers Football Club, said: "Rangers Football Club undertakes a wide range of initiatives aimed at combating sectarian behaviour among a small number of supporters. Media House has been brought on board to ensure we communicate these activities and to provide strategic advice and lobbying expertise on future initiatives. "The Club is determined to eradicate this problem and welcomes the overwhelming support of the majority of supporters in helping us to achieve this." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudbertz 0 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Not before time indeed and thankfully they have done what the fans have been crying out for. It shows how hard the club are now working to sort out this issue and hopefully UEFA will realise this and give us time to get the fans singing it to change their tune (pun intended! ) or get them out of Ibrox, but, although its a possibility, we would hope it doesnt come to that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wija 0 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 But will they be sympathetic to our cause, or are they Timmy in disguise? I am for it, but using someone with Rangers in them rather than a PR company for the outright PR side might be a little unwise. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
