the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Obviously decided to go on longer than advertised. .@BoosahWe We are working with everyone potentially impacted to identify if there are any potential alternatives for them. @Boosah We are restructuring areas to better position us for future growth. As part of this, a small number of roles may be affected. Boosah @Boosah · 1h @RFC_Official Why are board bonuses even being discussed never mind taken, when redundancies are happening? that lad could sidestep questions at international level. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 4,808 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 that lad could sidestep questions at international level. You could buy an 'Action Man', load it with corporate non-answers and ask the man on RTV to ask questions then pull the neck chord. You can tell it's his first gig as a CEO. Out of his depth but happy swimming in a pool of ten pound notes. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 They could have got a monkey to type these responses. It sounds like they are just copied and pasted. There is no detail, much like the business review. He does not answer anything. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Wallace just said "media"The business review didn't mention "media" Business Review The Board believes that one of the major factors influencing the merchant acquirer to change its terms was the extensive negative coverage of calls in some quarters for supporters to refrain or delay purchasing season tickets. GW in Q&A Just to be clear, fans were not blamed for the withdrawl of the credit card facility. The review said that negative comment in the media was a factor in the Club's credit card provider seeking security over Ibrox. He is playing on words and isn't even very good at it, nor does it have plausible deniability. I must have missed that part where it specifically says the fans are the cause.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,185 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 I must have missed that part where it specifically says the fans are the cause.... The fans were inferred as the cause because we're considering not buying tickets - whereas claims in the media suggest the First Data issue was before any boycott was called for and down to the general financial challenges facing the club. Media claims the club have not countered with litigation. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Let's not jump down his throat - if this is a dipping of the toe in fan waters then it may be a good thing, a dry run for something a bit more substantial. Problem is there's next to no time left to take the next step. If he wants to persuade people he's the read deal, that session won't have changed anyone's mind on anything, so if you're going to do it Mr Wallace, do it real fast. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I must have missed that part where it specifically says the fans are the cause.... This is clutching at straws D - there was and is no doubt who was blamed for the credit withdrawl when the review came out. None at all. Whatsoever. In any way. Even a bit. If there had been, the revelation that it had been raised in January would hardly have been...well, a revelation. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 4,808 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I must have missed that part where it specifically says the fans are the cause.... Firstly ask Graham why the word "media" wasn't specified in the actual business review but chose to use the term today and in so doing was inaccurate and revisionist. It was and is very clear who and whom are referred to with the phrase "in some quarters". If you choose not to see that, it says more about your position (built on sand) than anything else. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I'm not quite sure what folks expected. Did anyone honestly think he was going to reveal exactly how many ST's have been sold, for example. He took on the question about his bonus and clarified that if he gets one it will be pro rata his time in situ. Sure some of his answers were bland but equally everyone knows how careful you have to be on social media; one word out of place and it will be headline news. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoodyBlue 0 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Let's be honest - this was just a tick box exercise to say "we're engaging with fans". What a waste of time. Nothing that was answered has any use/worth. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
