BEARGER 1,829 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Seem the remember Frankie not being too happy about posts on this guy? If so please delete post. The makes entertaining reading, kind of. Looks like there is a fall out in the RSL. RSL Statement on John James March 8, 2016 by Merlin 1 Comment Having held our collective peace for some time, we would like to make a statement concerning the posts of the person named John James on his blog. Mr James’ rhetoric is that Rangers is a new or phoenix club which has no entitlement to the world record haul of league trophies and other silverware won prior to 2012. He is entitled to this opinion; however, it is not one shared by the RSL. We feel we need to point this out since John James insists on declaring his blog a successor to this one. Whilst it is true that “JJ” as he is known, was a frequent contributor to our Comments section, there was no formal or even informal association between the RSL and him. To our knowledge, JJ is not a member and the truth is that we do not know his identity. Opinions vary between JJ being a Rangers fan embittered by previous dealings with the club and a timposter pretending to be a bluenose. The latter option would make JJ one sick puppy in anybody’s book, it has to be said. We previously allowed JJ’s posts because he made very valid points concerning the present regime at Ibrox. It should be pointed out, however, that not all of his posts were passed. It can reasonably be claimed that JJ at one time made a valid contribution to the ongoing Rangers situation, particularly to those who were and are sceptical of Dave King and his colleagues. A year on from the regime change and many questions remain unanswered. It is evident that Mark Warburton and the team are delivering on the field and this is deflecting from a lot of the background activity which is still very precarious and volatile. Having said that, John James has segued from relentless criticism of Dave King to what appears to be his true agenda. That agenda is Rangers as a new club and the need to strip titles from the supposed old club. Disillusioned/embittered Rangers fan or a “timposter” it must be said that JJ is clearly someone who hates Rangers and seeks to damage the club. The increasingly vituperative nature of his recent offerings could not possibly come from a person with any credible claim to be a Rangers supporter. Furthermore, the comment section of JJ’s blog reads like a Who’s Who of the usual “offended” Rangers haters whose bitterness seeps out of every syllable. The RSL’s position is clear and unequivocal. Given the choice of standing with a regime that we have great difficulties accepting with approval and standing with people who clearly are out to destroy the club and drag its name through the mud, we are foursquare behind Rangers FC. And that is NOT a masonic reference, Mr James. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,150 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Hmmm, not overly fussy about deleting the post but I doubt many bears care what the discredited McMurdo or the people behind the John James project think. Quite frankly, what is worth saying is that McMurdo is a disgrace and this attempt to try and curry favour with our supporters (despite not actually saying anything new) is about as transparent as his previously paid efforts on behalf of other rogues.

boabie 230 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 The RSL ? It is composed of McMurdo and about 4 others silly enough to send him money to join. File under "ignore" imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiamBear 0 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I've never met or heard of anyone that actually knows the cunt, any bears on here ever met him? As for allowing JJ to post on his site, what a fuckin riddy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascender 352 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 People like him are just symptomatic of the age we live in where the internet has given everyone a voice and a puffed-up sense of self-importance. Seriously, who gives a flying fvck what he thinks, especially after some of his postings in the past... Every supporter and supporters group should be doing all they can to unite behind the Club as one - unfortunately we still seem to be incredibly fractured as a support with some people only interested in self-promotion and gain. I've said it a lot over the last few years, but it was utterly depressing to see how even during those darkest of times, our support couldn't agree to come together.

limeburner 0 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 McMurdo made his bed a long time ago---etc,etc. There is nothing really more to add. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 The less publicity we give him the better. Nothing the likes of Spiers, McMurdo like less, being ignored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,150 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'm going to close this now - especially when there are much more important fan issues to discuss today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
