simplythebest 0 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 What will he do if it's a draw at tannadice? Boycott Ibrox? They will make thousands more for a game at Ibrox, than they ever could from a home tie. Refusing tickets is a ridiculous thing for our club to get involved in. Who said Ally "bought" his shares? Green seems to be throwing them about like christmas presents. It's symbolic and sending a message as much as financial, the club had to back it up for it to actually mean anything. Like it or not it's what the majority of fans want. Bought, gifted in wages, still stands to reason he's behind the current regime. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuznetsov 0 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 It's for promotion out of the SFL, not just the third. You think another man in charge of recent times would have backed up the fans on boycotting Dundee Hibernian? I'd say Ally's wages are more concerning than Green's bonuses. we will be out of the sfl by the end of this season. spl2 beckons. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuznetsov 0 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 It's worded as a bonus to make it look like they arent pulling much wages, but if you tot it all up, it's close on a million for them both, which on paper looks a lot more dramatic. It's this sort of thing that annoys me about him. Treating us as if we are idiots. I'm sure it's just a tax avoidance thing mind, which makes it worse, considering. Do we really need a CEO and whatever ahmed is, earning close on a million a year in these leagues? As much as I hate to crtiisise Walter, what exactly is he there for? Telling green old Rangers stories after hours for 50k a year? Getting him onboard was just another cynical ploy to help the share issue. Cant really blame Walter, who wouldnt turn down 50k a year for doing literally nothing. i agree with you 100%. just like under whyte, fans dont want to hear negatives. we all know what happened then. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComeOffit 0 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) Why? Everyone can buy tickets for the came via any seller or via Dundee United normally. We simply do not offer them our services. We still get 40% from any sold ticket. As for a possible replay at Ibrox ... so what? They like any other team have taken 40% of our supporters money away from these games for decades, laughing all the way. If they laugh a little louder this time, so be it. The financial end result is the same. And in case you did not notice it: it was the supporters' wish to boycott the game at Tannadice, not just Green's idea. I take it you are one of the more active anti-Green campaigners? Supporting the team in a hostile atmosphere is much more important that some daft game of one-upmanship against our supposed enemies. I'll be there even if I'm the only one, which I'm sure I wont be. I dont recall Green asking me if I think the club should take tickets. It was an open goal for green to refuse tickets, take a 50k hit, and become a hero amongst the support. Would he have told us to boycott Ibrox? No. It would have hit his bottom line too much. When Green starts doing the best for Rangers, and not for himself and his "investors", then I'll get off his back. He needs us more than we need him. People have to start realising that. We are heading for 3 cup exits before xmas, and it's mostly his fault, not Ally's. Billionaires, new investors, 30k plus season books, and less than £1m spent on players. Ridiculous.

simplythebest 0 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 we will see, green may well suck more money out of club than whyte ever did. Whyte taking money out was hardly the worst of the problems with him. Remember the thing starting with A? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
