Rangers Banter Archive April 29 2020

Right. it looks like we aren't going to get the votes required to trigger the inquiry and given that the only thing the other clubs care about is money (certainly not integrity) then surely we have to boycott all away games. Or are we happy to subsidise those who hate us?

29 Apr 2020 20:44:46
Ferintosh, boycott hurts our players away from home.
I have decided not to ever attend away game due to a personal health issue. Very hard decision for me but.
I also understand and respect your view.

29 Apr 2020 21:20:54
I posted the other week, we should only take 1,000 tickets for away games. A 1,000 of us make enough noise for our players to hear. I’m for the boycott, hit the others in their pockets as they count on us filling their grounds for them. Time for action against those who hate us.
On another note, why no media questioning McClellans statements on Rangers as he told Private Eye. that’s a disgrace he can have any say on our club giving he stated he hates us, loathes us and said he could not stand us. why on earth has no one questioned this apart from our club? .

30 Apr 2020 09:42:45
Bigeck exactly! no further action on his comments not a column inch in mhedia if that had been Dave king or Douglas park the Scottish govt would be involved by now!
Leckie, Jackson, Sutton, Provan and the rest would be up in arms at the social back lash this could cause?

30 Apr 2020 10:16:09
Mclelland works for d.d. has done for years and tears and more years, there all the best of pals, how can any club win a dispute with celtic fc, or who put them all in there current jobs, as hard as trying to argue with a big, big family of brothers.

30 Apr 2020 10:25:57
Spot on bigeck re away tickets. 1000 max. Re McLennan - was just having a chuckle after reading Doncaster's comments - "McLennan is the ultimate professional - nobody can question his impartiality".

30 Apr 2020 12:38:54
Listened to Radio C. last night, a caller directly asked (so called journalist) Guidi. about why the media are not questioning McCLellon about his comments on Rangers. He ducked and dived and avoided any answer. as blue blue sea said if it had been any Rangers board member we would have been dragged to the Hague to explain. Disgrace no one questioning it.
. St Johnstone made £500,000 from us going to support the famous. I reiterate only take 1,000 tickets for away games, no more propping up those who hate us. that’s all of them.

30 Apr 2020 13:00:53
Hi Seeker, I also had a read at KJ's Q&A with Doncaster in the paper today, my take on it was, either he has nothing to hide, or, he has the biggest brass neck I've ever seen. Basically, why don't we do a Q&A tomorrow with KJ, and get our information out that way, it wouldn't do any harm if it's as damaging as we've been told. We cannot, in my opinion, dally on this any longer.

30 Apr 2020 15:31:21
Invger. I actually think we are doing the right thing keeping our cards close to our chest. Some of the statements coming out from these clowns at the spfl have been downright cringeworthy as well as threatening. I think they are running scared because they know we have damning evidence. I'd say leave the evidence until the last possible moment, otherwise they will have time to confer and get their answers ready. I'd love to see them collapse like a cheap deckchair.

30 Apr 2020 16:25:24
I would agree with ivrger Do a Q&A, get ahead of the vote and if the evidence is as damaging as stated there is no way the clubs could not vote for an independent enquiry as there would be uproar from fans.

Doesn't matter if they have time to "get their story straight". The facts and evidence would out them. Nothing to lose now especially if PSG are declared champions in France.

01 May 2020 10:10:21
Seeker, hear, hear, mate.,

29 Apr 2020 18:14:44
I sincerely hope the evidence we hold is as strong as we are led to believe, if it turns out to b nothing substantial we will look stupid and our credibility will suffer accordingly. Fingers crosses.

29 Apr 2020 21:16:49
Credibility! I think that ship has sailed.

30 Apr 2020 10:17:47
Ron59, the way we have kept from telling them i think its got more to do than a vote, especially calling for two suspensions while the inquiry is looked at.

30 Apr 2020 10:27:54
Delay for maximum impact.

29 Apr 2020 15:44:44

directors tell Rangers to reveal evidence

29 Apr 2020 17:44:42
Hope we have it! . This is going to go two ways: either we have enough evidence and SPFL top guys will get bullet or we and particularly Park will be humiliated.

29 Apr 2020 19:31:57
My bet is on the humiliated bit Lanzorote.

29 Apr 2020 19:38:41
The longer it’s going on, you can see our CE Stewart Robertson getting bagged. He will get the blame of this shambles! 🙃🇬🇧.

30 Apr 2020 10:19:34
Yately01, either that or we could see s.f.a. (Or spfl as some call them) . Resign a few of there members, there are trying to blame shortage of staff, oh and the cost, there trying to poison us already, imo, mate.

30 Apr 2020 10:28:12
Robertson already alienated. Surprise surprise! Did anybody notice Doncaster's thinly veiled dig at the director who wouldn't endorse their letter? I know it won't and probably can't happen but I'd love for us to play our football elsewhere. I wouldn't care if I never saw another OF game.

01 May 2020 10:17:10
Seeker, that's exactly how i feel mate, totally scunered with it all, i think our only chance of winning silver would be to hope some other team beat celtic in a cup, then we beat the team that beat them, because as things stand with officials, plus people running our leagues, we have no chance, seriously,

29 Apr 2020 13:04:56
SPFL accept that it was a mistake to create pressure of a 5pm deadline on Easter Friday for votes on the resolution. Accept responsibility but not apologising for putting pressure on Dundee FC as deadline approached.

29 Apr 2020 16:14:28
They knew fine well how Dundee were going to vote from the start and spfl had that vote in there hand. So you make a strange 'it went missing' statement then a 'dont accept out vote' reply.

They cry its a democracy. What democracy allows someone to vote after the votes have supposed to be have been finished but there vote would be the casting vote? My 9 year old would do a better job at hiding the corruption than the SPFL have shown in this 'democratic' vote.

29 Apr 2020 17:31:12
Can someone please tell me and provide evidence e. g. documents, call transcripts, email, comments from chairmen that demonstrates this corruption and cheating by Celtic you all speak of. I don’t mean hearsay and comments like “They are all Liewell men” I mean facts and evidence. When did Celtic cheat and what did they win as a result of this cheating. What corruption have they been involved in and please don’t say land buys as that particular rumour has been disproven years ago by an independent land expert. I await your comments with interest.

p. s. why do you think this vote was rigged against Rangers when they have much less to lose that say Hearts or Partick?

29 Apr 2020 17:48:35
Ehhh doubt anyone on here will have transcripts available numb nuts 🤣🤣.

29 Apr 2020 17:57:03
Thanks for that well thought out and articulate reply Snell. So no evidence then just hearsay.

29 Apr 2020 18:22:31
Does the mojo stand for mo Johnson he was a player, u can get back to your glue now.

29 Apr 2020 18:39:10
Thanks for taking time to reply to my post Oatlander. Yes Mo Johnson was a good striker although he lacked morale fibre. However could you address my original question please. Even if it is something that has been leaked online or verbatim remarks from club chairman highlighting this cheating and corruption. Not much too ask as loads of people on here seem to be certain that these things are happening.

29 Apr 2020 19:06:46
No Mr mojo, nobody on here has to answer your questions. Perhaps a bigger question is why you feel the need to post on rangers fans forum? 🤔.

29 Apr 2020 19:22:06
Why wouldn’t I post on a Rangers site although I doubt that is a bigger question than the alleged corruption and cheating in Scottish football as claimed here. I am a fan of Scottish football and felt with the level of certainty you guys state around Celtic, cheating and corruption you would have had solid proof. I don’t think that is an unreasonable ask if it is all true.

29 Apr 2020 19:33:38
Why don't you look it up Mojo, we don't have to prove anything to you.
All the evidence is in the public domain.
You can chose which side you want to believe. 👍.

29 Apr 2020 19:54:44
mr mojo rising, i will say it once, lots of gers supporters think that the spfl are bent, where is your proof and evidence that they are not.

29 Apr 2020 19:58:06
Hi Mr Tupacman prior to asking the question of you guys I did carry out an extensive search of the internet and couldn’t find anything that wasn’t just rumour and conjecture. If you could give me a link or name of an independent site which hosts this evidence it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help.

29 Apr 2020 20:33:59
Hi truebluesotrue I was not asking about the SPFL I was asking about the accusations that Celtic are corrupt and cheats and was looking for coberating evidence to back up such claims. For the record I don't necessarily trust the SPFL however you cannot ask someone to prove they are not corrupt without first providing details of said corruption.

29 Apr 2020 21:31:10
In this thread in which you replied to mojo no one mentioned Celtic being currupt. Perhaps in your extensive internet search you missed the bloke from Inverness caley speaking on sportsound about what happened at the vote? The WhatsApp messages. The fact Dundee's original vote was sent at 16.48pm, which the SPFL received.
What Neil Doncaster do/ say to change Dundee's vote?
Why, in the WhatsApp messages is Neil speaking to Peter? Who is Peter?
Perhaps you missed in your extensive internet search, BBC Scotland sports page, where Tom English makes some surprisingly valid points?
Just out of interest do you post on the Celtic rumours page mojo?

29 Apr 2020 23:14:53
Wait and see, then weep, 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧.

30 Apr 2020 16:16:32
Seeker - why would I weep? You clearly know absolutely nothing and have no evidence what so every which is why you didn't answer my question.

Mrgrump you are right on this thread there was no accusation of wrongdoing by Celtic however on old threads from yesterday and the day before there was hence my request.

What is clear is that no one on here can provide any proof of corruption or cheating by Celtic and only some supposition about the SPFL handling of the vote. I ask again why do you believe that this is all to get at Rangers when you have less to lose than teams staring at relegation?

29 Apr 2020 12:43:32
Looks like due to some Dutch teams threatening legal action because of promotion/ relegation and euro qualifications being disrupted the Dutch look like reversing their decision on null and void and having to have a rethink on the status quo and maybe going the French way of calling league on current positions or waiting until it is certain of any future football being able to be played.

29 Apr 2020 11:56:36
With the leagues shutting down throughout Europe its time for us to take decisive action in Scotland. The only fair thing to do at the very start, when it became obvious that the league could not restart, was to null and void the season but that ship has sailed and we are where we are. So where do we go from here? Court must be the last but very real option if they are awarded the league and with it our champions league entry. We have to take into consideration the financial implications here, quite apart from the fact that the "winners" will get almost £1 mil more in prize money the potential is there to make £30 mil out of the champions league and any chairman would be negligent if he were to stand back and watch our rivals being HANDED on a plate this huge and unearned advantage. I'm still not sure where that leaves us but surely sporting integrity should come to the fore.

29 Apr 2020 12:06:47
I can't understand why the season hasn't been called over. Playing behind closed doors just isn't football.

29 Apr 2020 12:47:06
It seems strange that bigger leagues than ours have null and voided they're leagues. FIFA medical officer thinks all leagues should stop. We're getting daily updates on how many people are dying. The SPFL in the grand scheme of things doesn't really matter, does it?

29 Apr 2020 12:51:11
Your Campions league place, what year are you dreaming about. 2120.

29 Apr 2020 13:04:58
Looks like null and void is a np goer. even Dutch are having to rethink their decision due to threat of legal action from a number of their clubs. France have gone with league finished with current standings. ( spfl with as is standings ) don't see any other way unless it is played on the park which is getting is getting more unlikely every day.

29 Apr 2020 13:42:02
Spiers is a horrible little oink, we should ensure he is accountable for his comments, one thing is for sure, he should never be allowed into Ibrox ever again, along with that bitter wee tosser McLauchlin. Keep these rancid poisonous Rangers haters away from our club, we don't need them, they publish lies every time anyway. We shall see how it pans out at the Emergency AGM, even though that snake MacLennan is at it again by suggesting we are stonewalling, these **** need to be challenged, and challenged they will. Good on the other clubs who supported our application for the meeting, i hope more follow suit, they are being blackmailed, bullied and bribed to sweep all this under the carpet.

29 Apr 2020 13:48:51
Yes "our", tennis, as I consider myself Scottish whoever gets the champions league nomination from the SPFL will be OUR representatives in said competition. Is this too complicated for you? You are actually an embarrassment you know that don't you? If ever you want a fan to fan debate about anything football then give us a shout but we both know that won't happen as you're more in your comfort zone with your big Billy childish embarrassing chat than actually trying to address or even put your real thoughts about the state of Scottish football to others of a differing opinion.

29 Apr 2020 15:01:19
Get your facts straight Jonny.
Nothing to do with null and void for declaring the season over.
The threat of legal challenge is for European places. 👍.

28 Apr 2020 23:41:30
I see that fifa are recommending that the season be finished as it's a matter of life n death.
They are also recommending that results should revert back 2 either 19 or 27 games played, depending on size of the league. Basically results based on each team being played home and away.
