Its quite clear now fellow bears, that in this year of all ie our glorious 150th anniversary of the famous glasgow rangers, a civil war has broken out between the supporters who are the lifeblood of our famous club and the board members or some of them, charged with running our football club! Now i'll start by saying a minority of our supporters have continually got our club in bother for one reason or another and their behaviour shouldn't ever be condoned, as we don't need or want this element within our club with their mindset they can do what they want and behave anyway they want, as they are a law onto themselves, which just isn't acceptable!
Having said that, certain member running our club have become distant with our majority of great supporters, when it was told that this would never ever be the case against once the absolute saviours and legends dave king, Paul murray and john gilligan saved our great club all those years ago from the previous leeches!
It was stated then the board and our supporters groups, shareholders, season ticket holders and supporters in general, would always be appreciated and kept very much in the loop, in all things regarding running our club 🤔Now there's undoubtedly a wedge between some board members running our club and the best supporters in the world WHY🤔Nobody on here will be surprised that i've never rated or like our MD stewart robertson and have previously stated i would have leeann dempster in his job in a heartbeat, If it was up to me, as she has the tools to be terrific for us 👌 We should never have agreed to going to play a so called friendly against celtic for what is an ange postecoglu homecoming, as we don't play friendlies against them! Why did our board members without at least keeping the supporters informed, jump into bed with a football club that's totally obsessed with our football club and don't even recognise or acknowledge we exist anymore, which is spoke about regularly at their Agm's 🤔They speak ill of us constantly at their Agm's amongst their own shareholders, ie embarrassing and bad minded and our board want to jump into bed with them, no chance! 😡This board has to reverse this and get a close relationship with our supporters as we're the constant along with prominent individuals, that have kept our great institution alive! God bless the famous glasgow rangers.

We don't play friendlies? did we not play charity legend matches previously or am i dreaming. also what about the B teams and womens teams. should we be playing them, and don't say we are legally obliged. there is no requirement to have a ladies team and i am sure we don't have a legal obligation to have a B team either.

even when King was in place there was no comms from the board nor before him either.

i have no problem making 3-4Million during a down period when at best we would have a friendly against another scottish team or a lower league english.

the board doesn't need to reverse it, the board is appointed to make as much legal money for rangers as possible. if its not rangers it would be another team playing in australia and celtic would still get their profit from it.

at a time when money is tight we need rightly explore every avenue possible and to ask fans permission beforehand would be madness.

One thing I would say is that there is issues between some members of a supporters group and some members of the board. Club 1872 won't represent the views of all of their members and won't necessarily reflect the views of the majority of supporters. As much as I would question some of the boards decisions and comments ultimately they do run the club and can't run it by committee. I do agree though that better dialogue is clearly needed. On here when the Oz friendly was raised all the comments were against it and I was told I was in the minority for backing it. After some discussion it appears that most fans actually back it so as I said then, those that shout loudest do not necessarily reflect the majority.

Walter you wrote other day only interested in our fans and club, now it is a different view.
Robertson carries out a thankless task.

Geesadoodoothat well said mate. We have played in legends matches all over the world for years against Celtic and there us zero difference to playing this tournament in Australia except we are going to pocket a gell of a load of cash for it. Fir those that say they don't want it to happen because its an Ange homecoming. don't you think our fans out there will buy tickets? How about we go and spoil his so called Homecoming?

Yesterday I posted about this friendly and someone replied about the class action that Celtic have against them and historical claims against them as a reason not to play this tournament. In my opinion that is a load of rubbish. Legends matches, charity matches happen all the time against them. Have we to boycott all of those? Nonsense.

OneWalter, Stewart Robertson, James Bisgrove and Ross Wilson all have thankless tasks at the club and have performed superbly well over the last few years. Our model that will return us to self sustainability is well and truly working and now bang on schedule. Some fans suffer from extreme short sightedness and can't see the bigger picture. I don't want Celtic going out there and banking all that money. We can't say no to 4m plus. Let the law do their job on other matters they are involved in with regards to historical allegations.

The way I see it is that we get another chance to beat them and pocket a he'll of a lot of money in the process.

Thats your opinion and one side of it MOCBear which you're entitled to of course but imo we shouldn't be going over to the other side of the world to play them in a friendly simples mate! Certain individuals praise our supporters and what they mean to the club and are now keeping them out the loop and the picture when they stated they would be much closer to the supporters so why 🤔We continue to put our money into our club and i've put a good amount in myself again with being a shareholder. Keep us informed is all i'm asking for and listening to our opinions.

Read it. I give up.
Yes u have been in here waxing lyrical re liane dumpster.
Do u now agree that 1872 should be majority share holder and run the club.
That can’t raise half a million to buy kings shares which he has agreed to sell at 20p
If it was not for park Gibson wolththard we would not have raised money required last three years as king was prevented moving money out of SA.

I for one agree with you coops and for all the reasons you have mentioned, pure and simple. I do not have a bigoted bone in my body and, as my family is mixed, I have never felt the need to sing distasteful songs. I just find the whole thing difficult to swallow, given e everything that has gone on between the clubs over the last few years. By all means arrange a money spinning match abroad where our sipporters can attend if they want, but please do not let it be against them. The majority of supporters on both sides don't want it. That said, there is a time and a place to protest. A tough away game where we are behind, was not it.

Not what i'm saying at all John25 🤔
Certain individuals i'm saying should always acknowledge our supporters and not become distant which was stated whether you care to believe it or not, that this would be a thing of the pass🤔Nobody is saying let club1872 run the club and make all the decisions but a voice for all supporters should have a voice within our board how's that🤔.

@The Seeker, what makes you think the majority of Celtic fans don't want it, total garbage.

Lastly it’s not a friendly it’s a
Mini tournament and it’s outstanding money.

To use the ange homecoming things as an excuse is completely and utterly embarrassing, they can’t call it gio homecoming can they? I couldn’t care less what they call it as it’s great money for the club.

1872 had someone on board lasted a month due to his conduct, not how I want our club represented.

A section of our fan base seem to think because you pour your hard earned cash into supporting the team, that gives you some sort of entitlement on how the club should be run. I’m afraid it doesn’t work like that. Everybody knows the MyGers, the merchandise strategy, the ticketing pricing is all just part of sourcing income, you can moan about it for sure, disagree with it for sure, but never should you try and stain the club for it. This Sydney cup thing is no different. I personally don’t agree with it but I can understand why the Board think it’s worth doing due to the financial gain.

I’ve heard a lot of things said about Bisgrove l, the commercial team and Robertson but ask yourself this, if they where not doing these sort of things to generate income, would the team that goes on the park be as good? Absolutely not. Look at where we were before these guys took over, I really don’t want to go back to that and I’m sure everyone agrees?

The statement from 1872 highlights a lot of these things but if the club didn’t do them then we would not be in the position we are currently. End of the day it’s not like the Club stole the money from your bank account, you choose to pay it because that’s what supporting a club is about. People often say no player is bigger than the club, that goes for supporters as well.

I’ll often disagree with things the club do but I’ll still be there every weekend cheering on the team and I hope everyone else takes that same approach into the remaining games this season. It has the potential to be one of the greatest in our history.
