rosco senior 17 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 We all know drastic change is required within our club but at the moment we are putting the future of our team at risk by starving the club of season ticket & gate revenues.A 15,000 crowd to watch a cup match against one of the leading teams in the SPL who have already beaten CFC this season - what has happened to those famous words "we will follow in the footsteps of our team" ?If we continue along this course of action a second administration becomes more and more likely. A 25 point deduction will probably mean at least one more season if not more in the Championship or lower divisions. Any chance of attracting new money will diminish greatly again making promotion back to where we belong even more difficult.If we did manage back to the top level an extended 5 year European ban would again cut off that source of income.Finally, and the most crucial point to many supporters, we will hand the holy grail of 10 in a row or even more consecutive titles to our greatest rival from across the city.Our enemies must find it hard to believe how we as supporters are managing to press the self destruct button.Surely the most important thing this season is to gain promotion back to where we rightfully belong.Let's fill Ibrox again, support our TEAM and once we are back at the top level find ways to change the club once and for all, so we can once again make an effective challenge for the one title that matters.

nachothelegend 1,932 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I really don't care about them having 10 in a row as long as we fix ourselves out.Besides even a skint Rangers could compete with them.We must not go the Admin route it would set us back years again, shut Auchenhowie before that happens blame the fans who call for boycotts. It's their shout. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluejack1 19 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 A guarantee if wee play manky mob in Scottish cup at ibrox it will be a struggle for us that have stood by the team to get a ticket as usualIf that's the case people only want to see celtic well they play at parkhead every 2nd week so fuck off thereAnd any group who is protesting by not attending should not be welcome back at ibrox Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 The best way to ensure Rangers future is to fill Ibrox for the rest of the season. Unfortunately many of our fans do not care about the clubs future as much as they care for their protest group, assembly, or "ultras" group, and are more than happy to starve the club and encourage other fans to do so. Scum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Well said OP, unfortunately the pricks you are trying to convince don't have the best interests of the club at heart. It is all about getting their crook in power and self promotion while making a wee buck on the side, and if the club dies because of it they don't give a fuck.

Figo 91 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Admin 2 would set the club back half a decade - much longer than another year in the champ.We are already a risky buy so barring a "white knight" figure we cannot even consider admin 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Its ridiculous that some are acting like Admin 2 is something we shouldnt be too worried about. It will be the end of Rangers as we know it, we wont be in Europe for at least 5 years and probably another 10 before we have a chance to qualify, by that time we'll probably have an average attendance of about 20,000.If you think Admin 2 is the way forward then youre a clown, fuck off help out some other club because you are doing Rangers absolutely zero favours.A full Ibrox is what is needed, the team are giving us a reason to go and see them, theyre doing their best and staying positive which is more than can be said for any of us. Get Ibrox filled and support the team and you'll see the light at the end of the tunnel! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I never thought that I'd live to see the day when Rangers fans are boycotting & voting to rip apart our Great British Union. Un-fucking-believable!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie62 0 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 When would we be able to play in Europe as it stands now. Was thinking it was next season if we could win Scottish cup not that I think we will. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer93 15,056 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 League cup crowds are always poor other than against the child molesters A sense of reality is needed here, the league cup used to be a freebie with your seasonticket, as it is now a paid game it's hardly surprising.The Scottish cup games pre administration against Kilmarnock and Dundee hivs only attracteda combined attendance of around 30,000-31,000.Cup games are struggling to attract gates for some reason, it's the same down south as well.
