Hopefully today or tomorrow but waiting to hear back from them. Sent something yesterday criticising the over-reaction in the media and online to the celebrations after Garner's goal.

Don't also forget the English tabloids with McKenna and Greenslade who's good friends with the gobblegiver.
 A few of them have also previously worked for the celtc view.

Watch Pedro at the end with all his smiles and cuddles with Rodgers and wee chit chat... He should be straight up the tunnel and booting balls all over the dressing room.
He's not a Rangers manager.

I think people who live in the fantasy land of fan ownership should give us a total breakdown of how they would finance the club including a large transfer budget, Then again the same people would still be telling us decades later that one day Rangers would have 11 players on the pitch who were all brought through the youth system.

The one thing that is obvious is that there are Bears we all trust, that believe in our having a voice at board level, these are not the manipulists, not the policy writers, nor the populist.
They are the season ticket holders, the away support, the RSCs.
These are the people we should entrust our holding to, and they should direct not administer.

Fan ownership is a dead parrot 

Really don't know what to make of the new manager, Utterly bizarre taking Hyndman off when he was one of the best players on the pitch,Removing Waghorn and replacing him with a midfielder when trying to win the game.
Other thing that was strange was having Toral on the bench with no intention of playing him,Why not put one of the youth team players on the bench,Made absolutely no sense.
In the last two games this game plan the manager keeps repeating seems to have vanished and like the Motherwell game it was turgid pish of hitting a lot of long balls and totally missing the midfield.
Under Murty the team looked more stable and looked like he had installed a bit of fight in the team, There were players tonight that looked like they were going through the motions and just couldn't be arsed.
Halliday and Holt in the middle doesn't work.
McKay seriously needs to be dropped, He brings absolutely nothing and his corners/free kicks are woeful, Has the heart of a mouse and shits himself from tackling anyone.
Bates at the back started quite nervous but once he settled he had a decent game,He'll never be a regular first team starter simply because he's not good enough, Thought the young lad Beerman had a great game against Salmon who is an experienced pro,much stronger and taller and hardly gave him a sniff and got himself forward a few times,Good future if he continues to work hard and improves his game, But Beerman is another who will spend most of his time in the youth teams.
In the last couple of games we look as if we have went backwards, Is this the players protesting on the pitch at their new six day week.
Summer will be interesting as the whole team needs cleared out and we should be encouraging Warburton to take McKay,Tavernier,Waghorn and Keirnan to Forrest and the money used to bring in a couple of quality players and Mr King and his board can find the other £20m we will need to compete next season.
Rangers fans won't except this pish next season nor except playing catch up with the sheep.
It also concerns me that in the summer we could see players coming from PC's old teams in Qatar and Mexico and once again spending what little we have on yet more shit players on long term deals and no further forward, There is absolutely no point in signing players who are used to getting time on the ball in these country's and the nice slow build up.
We can ill afford to make any mistakes in the summer transfer window and quality players must be brought in,Players who are winners and want to work hard and play for the jersey and win things..Winning mentality.
First player i'd be making moves about is Hyndman if the price was within our budget, He'll only get better as time goes on.
All in all another shite performance bar a couple of players getting pass marks, I really don't think most of these players get the concept of what it means to pull on that famous blue jersey nor how lucky they are to be playing and training in such wonderful surroundings followed wherever they go by adoring fans, Most of them can't see further than their next monthly wage.

If it hadn't been for both goalkeepers it could have ended 5-5

If they did you would still be in a position then of owing a building still requiring millions to renovate and upgrade it.If we're going down the road of the club selling the building to the fans group.
Rab Marshall and his son have both admitted they don't have the finance to fund this themselves.
It's also highly doubtful that they would up sticks and move the Louden to EH given the very substantial amount of money they have spent doing the Louden up, Even selling the Louden wouldn't bring anywhere near enough money to finance the renovation and refurb of EH.
EH is a pretty big building based over several floors, There has been numerous figures splashed around about the actual cost of fixing and renovating the building, Unless there are actual plans and quotes for doing the work,Then it would only be guesswork as to costs, Loads of folk reckon anywhere between £1.5m/£2m.
Looking at it another way,One way to vastly reduce the costs would be to renovate a certain percentage of the building,Say a couple of floors and the costs would drop by quite a bit.
The only other way to finance it would be to offer shares to raise the money for it or/and offer a yearly subscription for membership and part ownership,Something that was owned and run by the supporters.
Rab Marshall love him or loathe him seems to be the only one who's interested in doing something with the building,If it's funded,run and being used by the fans and others that can only be a good thing.
EH is as it stands still costing the club money in rates and the longer it stays empty and gets worse the more the costs will increase to fix it up and revamp it,It also has two good size car parks front and rear already in situ.
Let's also remember there are numerous award nights and dinner dances throughout the year and money that the club doesn't see a penny of,Using our own facility's would see the money from all these including bar and food profits would stay with the club/fans and could be invested in revamping more of EH if that was the case.
You have to speculate to accumulate,But in order to speculate you first have to get the finance to do so
A building owned,used and funded by our own fans sounds good in theory, But will take a pretty big investment to do so.
I remember when EH was called Morley's and they had some great nights in there almost always sold out, So would be good to see a modern version for the fans and some great nights once again.
As always money is the biggest factor here.

The problem with this board is they do have a a fair bit to spend from ST sales, but spend it very badly. That , along with not speculating to accumulate as you said. They are as incompetent as they are self serving.

Here is a simple solution, If the board don't have the money to improve and take us forward then they should stop trying to pretend they have and make moves to bring people in that will and step aside.
The support has had enough of all these broken promises along with the huge let down of a squad who on paper should be good enough to finish 2nd quite comfortably, They have not just let the club down but our own supporters due to their cowardly performances on the pitch, I like the term "No surrender" but in respect of our players it should be termed "surrender monkeys".
The support are angry at the moment at what is going on, If it continues and nothing changes these same supporters will ramp up the anger not just at the players, But will then turn on the board demanding changes and it won't be nice.
We were in a bad place 5yrs ago and 5yrs later most of us expected things to be much better both on and off the field, We have a team bordering on total implosion and a severe lack of quality and a board who seem absolutely clueless as what to do and absolutely nothing positive about the club at present.
If you had told me this what we would be like 5yrs ago in 5yrs time, I wouldn't have believed you. 
Rangers fans are not known for their patience and if this continues all hell will break loose and season tickets renewals will take a very big hit.
The board would be advised to take on a very old proverb "You have to speculate to accumulate", In order to make money you first have to spend it on something that sells tickets and get's bodies through the doors and attracts people,Football is about entertaining those who pay their hard earned cash into something they love, In our fans case as it stands they get very little back for their investment and our boards answer is to run around looking at 2nd division managers in the desperate hope that this stops the rot and improves the club.
It won't.

Barry Ferguson... No thanks and we need to move with the times, In theory we should buy the biggest brush available and sweep the lot of them out the door, In reality we can't.
Ferguson is a failed manager/coach even at Clyde, Yes the mighty Clyde who sit 3rd bottom of league two.
He has apparently resigned today from Clyde and if he get's anywhere near a job at Ibrox it shows how low our ambitions have become.

Murty is an absolute fanny. Bringing Garner on with 60secs left ffs.
Dundee- Haven't won a game in 2017,Along come Rangers and Dundee get their first win.
Inverness haven't won at home in 5 months and sitting bottom of the league, Along come Rangers and Inverness get their first win in 5 months.
Murty takes off Halliday who's pish and replaces him with a like for like player, Why the fuck didn't he take off Halliday and replace him with Forrester,Remove Waghorn and stick Garner/Dodoo on with 30mins to go when we had to win the game.
An absolute shambles from top to bottom both on and off the pitch.
Playing tippy tappy football when we should be more direct
Why also does McKay keep taking the corners when nearly all of them go to an opposition player, Playing the ball from wide and hitting it into the box and there isn't one Rangers player there in the box.
Be lucky to finish 4th and a new manager won't be able to do anything with this team.

We have a decent record at home,But our problems seem to be when we play away.
How can some sit on here and say the players aren't good enough,Nobody said nothing about the players when we knocked the unwashed out of the Scottish cup,Nobody said nothing about the players when we beat both Aberdeen and Hearts at Ibrox and looked very good in both games.
That proves that these same players can play well when they want to but seem to have a mental block when playing away from home and that good play goes out the window for whatever reason.
Today was just yet another example of players who go from hero's to zero's in a week,Looked disinterested,Not quick enough on releasing the ball,Wrong passes,Giving the ball away in silly positions and the throw in's are an absolute joke when you constantly throw the ball to the opposition players and lose the ball and then find themselves under pressure. 
McKay is the most overated player at Ibrox who bottles out of any 50/50 tackles,Loses the ball far to often and his crosses into the box are absolutely dire and has the heart of a mouse.
Andy "Backpass" Halliday is another that you have to ask what it will take to drop this guy,He's deplorable and yet another who hardly has a good game and needs dropped asap.
Garner despite his goal is still a very poor player given what we paid for him and apart from his goal did absolutely nothing and then got himself a stupid booking which puts him out against the mankies.
Really don't know also why Murty played Hyndman in a deeper role in midfield when his best position is in an attacking role and left him having no impact on the game,Where also was Toral today ?
I would have played Hyndman,Toral and Forrester today in midfield and would have stopped Dundee walking over our midfield today and gave us a bit more going forward.
Poor performance and bodies need dropping, We play Inverness next Friday and unless things are changed we could see yet another poor performance and possible defeat by bottom table Inverness and i wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if we were beaten.
The highs and more often the lows of being a Rangers supporter and absolutely tragic the position we find ourselves in now.
