I can think of plenty. And they all wear green & grey.

Won't matter anyway. Do you honestly think it will be invested wisely if at all. Like Hutton's money, filtered through the channels and never to be seen again..

Fans have more power than they sometimes realise. It would hurt like hell to give up my ST but an organised stand has to be made. We are being lied to and cheated left, right and centre by supposedly Rangers men. Furious!!!

In every corner of the world, you'll find a tramp wearing the green & grey.

I remember hearing a very accurate account of what happened that great night from a radio interview with none other than a certain Archie McPherson. He stated he was sitting in the press box beside a gentleman who was working for Reuters and had no affiliation with any football team. In fact, he was'nt even a fan of the sport. According to McPherson, after the Rangers fans came on to the pitch, he noticed a large section of police were gathered in one of the corners. The leading officer at the front of their ranks raised a baton above his head momentarily. Eventually he dropped the baton, signalling his officers to charge the Rangers fans and begin an unprovoked baton charge. Now here's the thing. The gentleman from Reuters turned to McPherson and said something along the lines of 'what you are witnessing is classic behaviour from Franco's pro-axis, right wing, baton wielding thugs. I have seen these police tactics in other parts of Spain outwith football matches time and again. It is the only method of policing large crowds they use.' Not once did this gentleman, a complete neutral, label any blame at the Rangers fans that night. It was all about the police. I've travelled to Spain to support my club and to me the policing has'nt improved that much.

Aye, & big Bert scored a cracker against the unwashed tae.

In a nutshell nvager, also CL to look forward to. Squad improvements will be pivotal. We've got to have a right good bash in europe. More important next season than ever i feel.

They'll want back for the good times. Same old, same old. Quite hurting to hear really. Would'nt contemplate it myself. A season tickets for life, not just for xmas.

This is absolutely true & yes, we all bought into the french revolution thing. Hindsight is a wonderful thing & yes, a crystal ball would be great. But for our club to fall from grace as far as it has over recent years is totally unacceptable to all fans alike. Mistakes at the highest level have been made. The previous poster's twisted logic does not, should not apply to an institution the size of ours. Cheers bandage.

Just talking through experience mate... We haevn't spent as little money as some make out. Two seasons ago we spent a fair bit, although most of it only came in the January window. We all knew that the following season would be McLeish's last so it would have made no sense to give him any real money. And this season we have spent almost 10 million, by the time we signed players and payed others off. People talk about Celtic's transfer pot, but last summer most of their budget came from selling Petrov. It has not been SDM's fault that our managers spend the money given to them poorly is it? I think it is SDM's fault actually as ultimately, he employes the managers that spend the money poorly. Actually that's a big pile of BS. Are you telling me that if a company employed you and you messed things up drastically to the point you were getting sacked you would turm to them and say it's all your fault for employing me??? That's not only ridiculous it is the most childish thing I have ever heard in my life The failure of an employee can state his case anyway he likes. That's of no interest to anyone. Silly hypothesis like yours does'nt get used in the real world. I'm more interested in the meticulous method an employer has to go through to reach a successful person for the job. SDM has been guilty of failing at this task.

I think the context of the thread is the same as many that have gone before. Reading between the lines imo, its about sdm & the lack of spending. Nothing new.

I believe the true Rangers support have done a lot already & then some. We've also had to tolerate a substantial amount of off-field flak as well as sub standard football. The ball is firmly in SDM's court. The question is what can he do for us.

That game had it all. Even the fox running onto the park.
