No Derek. When they chanted 'sack the board' they meant the one that you sit on!

 

Soon enough there will be chanting, singing and yelling every song with 'goodbye' in its title when the correct board get the boot! *fingers crossed*

Rangers fans' group handed BAN by Derek Llambias after explosive minutes of summit with Ibrox board are revealed

 

22:57, 18 February 2015

By Keith Jackson

 

THE stunned supporters were informed that the Ibrox chief had moved to axe their team and instructed the club's lawyers to have their group legally disbanded.

 

 

 

RATTLED Rangers chief executive Derek Llambias last night took the extraordinary step of sacking his own fans.

 

Record Sport revealed how Llambias was at war with the club’s officially appointed Rangers Fans Board in a row over the publication of explosive minutes of a recent meeting.

 

The stunned supporters were informed that Llambias had moved to axe their team and instructed the club’s lawyers to have their group legally disbanded.

 

Ironically, Rangers fans appear united in their desire for the board to be sacked. But Llambias has chosen to bullet the wrong one ahead of the March EGM which looks set to see the current

beleaguered regime wiped out by a shareholders vote.

 

The news was broken to the representatives yesterday in an email from Rangers Fans Board secretary Gary Gillan which read: “Hi team, I received an email from Derek Llambias this morning that simply stated: ‘I’m going to disband the fan board, if I’m still here after the EGM revisit the whole thing.”

 

Llambias later confirmed to Gillan that the Rangers Fan Board had been binned but that it will continue to exist for as long as it takes to complete the legal protocol.

 

One of the fans, who wished not to be named, said: “We’ve been effectively fired by Llambias. It’s an astonishing state of affairs when the chief executive is sacking supporters who are life-long Rangers fans.”

 

Another board member said: “At first we thought Llambias was going to close us down after the EGM because his email was worded so clumsily. We were then informed the board had been wiped out with immediate effect.It was only later yesterday that Llambias

responded to our

questions and confirmed that the board will continue to exist while the club’s lawyers go about the

business of shutting us down.”

 

Yesterday, we told how Llambias and fellow director Barry Leach had reacted

furiously after minutes of a

recent

meeting with the hand-picked fans’ group had been published online.

 

The Rangers Fans Board was established four months ago by former chief executive Graham Wallace in the name of openness and transparency and in an attempt to reconnect with the club’s supporters.

 

But, during last week’s meeting, Leach caused astonishment by asking for a crude comment he made about the so called Three Bears Consortium – who had offered the club a multi-million pound emergency loan – to be struck from the record.

 

It was noted in the official minutes along with the suggestion that Douglas Park, George Letham and George Taylor “s*** themselves” when they thought their cash offer was about to be accepted.
