Not sure what your problem is with that and to be honest I couldn't give a fuck. if I were you I'd be more worried about the state the club is in than I would be about calling out my fellow fans about who they previously did or didn't raise complaints against but if you'd rather moan about the fact that certain posters weren't as vocal about a previous and now irrelevant board, instead of addressing the issues currently effecting our club, some of which are directly due to the actions of our current board, then that says it all about you and your agenda now please fuck off you wee fanny and leave the grown ups to talk Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swift describes them as being filthy and with unpleasant habits, resembling human beings far too closely for the liking of protagonist Lemuel Gulliver, who finds the calm and rational society of intelligent horses, the Houyhnhnms, greatly preferable.

Remember the foaming at the mouth when the "hundred day review" was a few days late? Then it was picked over and dissected word by word. What is the business plan and strategy of this current board? Have they even published one after two and a half years? Have they even said how they are going to challenge for primacy in Scotland other than Kings lies about front loaded £50M investments? Wrong Previous boards were heavily criticised for having a partly hidden ulterior business plan and strategy that was in their interests rather than the club.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll find that this thread was started by one of your fellow serial spiv backers referring back to fans reactions to 'previous boards'. 2. Yes, this board should be judged on it's own merits with due consideration to direct and indirect legacy issues that still affect the ongoing situation. 3. No, businessmen at a football club don't always make plans to make them as individuals money. I know you've never ever got your head around this but try to appreciate the difference between 'robbing bastards' and 'incompetence'/'mistakes'. 4. The plan from this board would seem to be fairly obvious but the mechanics of how to get to the place they want us to be is where I think they've been falling down since April 2016 (I've went into this in some detail on other threads). 5. I think this may be the defining period of time for the current board in terms of how they react, how they change/ map out strategy from here on in (including finances), getting the next managerial appointment right and the communication with shareholders/fans at the AGM.

The very basic outline - to get the club's revenue streams back, up and running for the clubs benefit. - for directors/other individuals to fund ongoing shortfall with 'soft loans' which would eventually be converted to shares - to modernise the footballing operation, produce players for our first team and eventually for profit - to make inroads back into European competition and the finances that come with that - to return to the top of the SPFL --------------------- It's not rocket science but the issue has become 'the mechanics' of carrying out the plan and as always at a football club, the risk of adverse results.

Your penultimate paragrapgh is a disgrace, even by your standards and you do understand who the many individuals are,  that you level such bilious accusations?  Your are a rather sad and poisonous little individual in need of help. You spend far too much time on dishing the personal abuse and innuendo when posters don't get with your view. No doubt your wee coven will be along soon to lend support. Time you had a lie doon in a dark room. Try and enjoy life. I do. I'm feeling just great, enjoying life in Tenerife. Of course I know who they are, they used to like Bawsburst, McMurdo, MA, Bluegate's posts etc, before yours. Your comprehension isn't great in that regard though, you're making more nonsense up. Only you I put in with the above names, not accusing others. Though as mentioned, it was easy for the above to get the same people agreeing with and liking their posts. That's a fact. I see you didn't attempt to refute any of the other pish you have previously posted, 8 figure sums being offered for the Club by an aqiantaince of yours the other week etc. But yes, it's me that's sad and in need of help lol. Give over ffs, you delight in having a go at anything Rangers, making alsorts of shite up, and the lies come out if your mouth like second nature. So don't be surprised when you get called out for blatant lies, I'm sure it's been going on since as long as you can remember. Yes, you love your life that much, you have to spend it posting lies about it on the internet. High powered Company Director that you are ... Me, I'm going out for a spot of breakfast by the beach, then off the the Bluebells or bikerblue's to watch the game later.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure_Quality 3,295 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 11 hours ago, Smile said: See I although not enamored by this board can see why they see McInnes as a good fit as he would give us a stability we have lacked since 2012. I think they will see McInness as a solid manager who has done well in this division and maybe with a bit more money could challenge the filth. I have changed my mind on him as like you I saw it as settling but not so much now after these recent appointments. Maybe I have lowered my expectations. I don't disagree about stability, I think it's totally required, which is why I don't get appointing someone who we're already talking about needing to replace to put up a decent challenge to them in a few years. Bring that person in now and give them the 'McInness years' too, so they're not picking up from another managers team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that some people can't even give King a break when he gets something right as they're so focussed on discrediting him, and use every issue to do so.
