sorted our club ain't going into admin 2 wallace has spoke to mccoist ally agrees they ain't a chance off it happening so all us fans can now sleep hapily without worrying about our club ally has backed the statement so it must be a certainy not to happen now like all the other ones he has backed looked what happend there why can our manager not just say no comment when asked about stuff like this other managers seem to swerve it if current board can only get 1.5 million investment then time to go I think they should outline there investment plan if they expect the fans to keep paying then they better think again

What other managers swerve it? He's asking fans to back the board and why not? Let's face it, the board ain't going no where, why don't you start boycotting games or has that already started?

O. P some of us will keep paying. Not because we support Super Ally or the board but because the club is an emotional tie that cannot be broken. We may not like the football we see we may not like the board or understand micro never mind macro strategies they plan or propose but the club is in our DNA and we cannot do anything about it.
I will pay my season ticket money again next year and every year I can afford it because I was a bear before I was actually born and will be one until I snuff it.
I may not think the manager should be the manager and may not agree with his team selections but I will still go though the ground to support the team.
I will often be bored to tears with the dross on display and may post about this because having paid my money and paid with my time I am entitled to my opinion.
I will often dispair at fellow rangers fans who refuse to admit to Super Ally's weakness's but I will continue to support my team even though there is little about the players on the park the management or the board I like or agree with.
But it is because I am a real fan and will always support the team in blue on the park- even when they are crap

Craig,

What do you actually expect a manager to say?
I give people the benefit of the doubt, a bit like innocent until proven guilty. Until GW does something to warrant criticism then it is normal to take him on his word.
Ally backed CW and CG until they acted against Rangers interests, then he didn't back them. Do you think he has a crystal ball or do you think he should just assume every CEO is a lying spiv?

If you are angry about events at Rangers, do not take it out on your own.

@ Johncass " He's asking the fans to back the board and why not"

1) he fully endorsed Whyte
2) he asked us to back green and we did ( now we need a crisis loan)
3) he fully endorsed Mathers

Ally asked us to back the above mentioned for over 800,000 reasons now he wants us to back this board for 400,000 reasons.

we are all well aware what these reasons are they are £, s going into allys already bloated bank account,

i will always back Rangers but i'm not blinded by loyalty to it employees.

im Rangers till I die

not Ally till I die, Walter till I die, or any other Manager or Player that has the privilege of being associated with our great club past present or future.

i pass by the grave of one of our greatest founders Moses McNeil daily and I swear I can here him turning in it


Rangers Till I Die

Lochaber Bear

Hey op is your name not really Captain Mannering. If McCoist states an opinion he is slated, if the guy was to say no comment he is slated. I am no fan of our manager but mate please get down to Argyll Street and buy some of that Inca music on CD and calm down.

What does it take to get through to some people there won't be administration boycotts ain't going to help anything the only way to gget rid of smokey and the bandits is to support g wallace the club let him make the nec savings turn the whole thing round there will be plenty of investment if financial results are and other owners will turn up better still all supporters group rally round start buying shares rather than bleat about spivs out boycotts dave king whoever everybody has to realise the only way to get rid of smokey & co is to buy their shares when the ho hah with green was going on he said give me £14 million u can have them agreements could have been made by every one to buy so many at a time instesd white knights blue knights whoever have only suceeded in costing the club a fortune for what I will tell u absolutely nothing if what has been spent by the club and everyone else on legal fees etc some of the shares could have been bought and what annoys me most is the fact the biggest loser is not smokey &co. nor white knights//blue knights the biggest loser is rangers and until everyone pulls together that's the way it will continue if this chance is missed to get us back to where we should be it will be shameful

@4

Well ally is only human like the rest of us, he wasn't the only one to back Craig whyte, it wasn't ally who gave him a hero's reception outside ibrox, look were we are now, through him.

Did you see through whyte from the start?

@7

The Rangers board at the time saw through Whtye and I am sure they would have had discussions with McCoist about it

Is ally getting the blame for Craig whyte?

Look I am not a fan of allys far from it but in the position rangers were in if hsd not backed green it would been a case of no season tickets sold the ship would have sunk before it sailed whyte at first did some things that were ok he got davis macgregor and one ot 2 others to extend there conyracts then ally took over at the hrlm fae walter first europe went down the tube then naismith got injured at aberdeen ally had no plan b 16 pt lead gone and the rest is history as I say don't blame him for backing green/whyte but I blame him totally for the mince served up week in week out the only man that can sort it is g wallace and we mst give him a chance he will know how things should be rub so as for now its all down to him to get on with it

Ally maybe human but he is earning a whole lot more than the rest of us humans who contribute to pay him next question who are the dafties easy us humans

Yeah give wallace his chance, he's not a chancer with a crooked past, IMO he will do his very best for rangers, and also give the board a chance, as Wallace was their appointment, what have they done to deserve the spivs out? Is it because dave king is floating about? If king wants rangers, he should offer them a price, then we would see what the board and king are made of.

@ 10 agreed and have just spent the 10 minutes or so required to fill in the club's questionnaire. At the end you can fill in your contact details. Some of the spaces where you can enter your gripes look small and if your an old windbag like me I can report that you can go on beyond the apparent box- odd that -sorry Sammy
@4 LB can I just point out that Moses McNeil with the other 3 (4 actually) pioneers were from Argyll and not nasty Invernesshire but otherwise I agree with your post 100%

{Ed039's Note - Whats wrong with being from/living in Invernesshire?)

Real worry is why just £1.5m, given rumours we out of cash, can't pay redundancy money and this ammount just the ammount to fudn and admin?

need clear need x for reason yyy.

not 120days reveiw, and opps halfway thru we need more cash and can't get it from anywhere but our shareholders. who have not put money into club per se, but into shares. to pay spivs more

Ah well now Doougie sorry Ed that's because you are an inn-come-er.
If you go to McTavishes kItchen for 3 fish and chips you would probably ask for 3 fish suppers whereas a West Coast Highlander would ask for two fish suppers and anotherone.
Actually I wasn't aware of this apparent deadly rivalry until I signed in to a massively overpriced B and B in Arisaig and was told I was welcome even though I was from North Argyll.
I'd ask the local historian but she's deid.

{Ed039's Note - Lmao, McTavishes Kitchen was long gone before I moved to Fort William, and in its place another bloody hotel was built)
