ian1964 10,409 Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 John Brown delivers fans' petition to Rangers board RANGERS legend John Brown delivered a petition to Ibrox today that calls for guarantees over the future of the stadium. Nine-in-a-row great 'Bomber' dropped off the petition for club chief executive Graham Wallace. Over 7,000 supporters have put their names to the online petition that was organised by fans' protest group the Sons of Struth. The petition calls for Rangers to "give written legally binding assurances to fans that Ibrox Stadium will not be sold or used as security for any loans". Meanwhile, Gers will travel to Canada and the US this summer. The Ibrox club has announced details of their pre-season programme, with Ally McCoist's side also returning to the north of Scotland for the second season in a row. They will play Buckie Thistle on July 3 and Brora Rangers on July 6. The League One champions will then jet out of Scotland on July 12 and will spend 12 days in the United States and Canada. They will take on Ventura County Fusion in California on July 15 and Sacramento Republic FC four days later. After that the Light Blues will head to Canada where they will play Victoria Highlanders in British Columbia on July 21. Another fixture on July 23 will be confirmed at a later date. McCoist said: "I have no doubt our overseas supporters will enjoy seeing the team in action once again. "We have a wonderful global fanbase and I am sure the members of Narsa will turn out in huge numbers at all of our games." http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/rangers/john-brown-delivers-fans-petition-to-rangers-board-165479n.24356937 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,145 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 7000 names is a fair number of people and the club should recognise the validity of the concerns. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimpy 0 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 7000 names is a fair number of people and the club should recognise the validity of the concerns. The phrase 'ready to listen' is more apt. 7000 season ticket holders would like Mr Wallace and his colleagues to protect Rangers' assets. Not too much to ask, is it? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
True_Ger_1872 2 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 What worries me is that the topic of this petition is completely unacceptable and should never be allowed to pass. But we can only get 7000 signatures to this cause?? Doesn't exactly demonstrate a unified approach. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we can only get 7000 signatures to this cause?? Doesn't exactly demonstrate a unified approach. Problem with this petition is that it was completely online based. As such, I'd say around 7000 people is probably as much as you get if we examine numbers of fans online. You'd maybe get more if you had people with clipboards outside Ibrox on match-day but, even then, not everyone is comfortable giving out their personal details. Not to mention many, many people will just be fed up of the whole thing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
