mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The boards plan for the survival of the club hinges on the fans actually 'upping their loyalty' as this is what they have accounted for in the projections. In what world do they actually live if they have banked on actually increasing the season ticket numbers, whilst increasing the prices and serving up the same rubbish on the football field by refusing to change the manager? They are actually now claiming that if the club goes to the wall that they are blameless as it's all the fans fault? This is even the case although they have repeatedly stated they have investment lined up and that they are planning on holding off on bringing in this investment?King ain't perfect, but this lot are taking the piss.

mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 What exactly did they say?They signed off the accounts only on the basis that the club would sell greater numbers at a higher price thank in the previous 2 years.Today Easdale stated :-"So, I would ask [that] every loyal Rangers fan, and I pick my words correctly in saying loyal Rangers fan, supports the club at this time and gives it a chance."We don't want to go back to the dark days of administration. Everything's a possibility and at the moment we've got to look on a positive as a board, taking it forward." Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 So where did the 'upping their loyalty' stuff come from? Did you just make it up?No, that comes from the accounts, the ones that they had signed off, where they quite clearly state that they expect the fans to increase the number of season tickets sold, at higher prices.

eosmhdo 1,879 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 When the boards only plan is that they expect to increase season ticket numbers, whilst increasing prices and that if this doesnt happen, then its the fans fault that the club goes under, then I would say that the statement is pretty accurate.I understand your opinion and it is pretty accurate as you say but your headline should read "my opinion is that the board want the support to up their loyalty".

trublusince1982 768 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 it is what he is inferring. they need a modest rise in st sales according to the accounts yet all they do publicly is alienate large portions of the fan base who know a rudderless ship when they see one.even if the st sell out the accounts dont add up maybe sandy forgot Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummiesoot 16,001 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Tbh the loyal fans thing is just that continue to be loyal. This board have still currently done little wrong to date (not without twisting things anyway). I saw it as a compliment to the loyalty of the fans to date... And if you look deeper a potential dig at dingbat who doesn't even have a ST Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
