The Only Way is Up

Don’t post much but Her Majesty is such an inspiration and a constant across my entire life. what an incredible leader.

Done

Can I have 20, 21, 24 please if still available? Money has been transferred

It’s around 850mm x 850mm

The only thing that makes any sense to me is that after Res 11 gets passed at the AGM new investors are lined up who will want their own manager in. This is the only reason I can think of for not appointing a new manager. Or is this just wishful thinking?

Good post. Now is the time we should all be sticking together and supporting the team and management. There is a lack of confidence that is affecting all of the players and we definitely need to toughen up. I have no doubt that this will change. it's easy being a supporter when the going is good. Much more difficult at present. I'm sure we will continue to play our part.

Obviously I agree and I always will but I am referring to the individuals trying to gain control.

First opening post so please be gentle. Pretty fed up with the negative posting and games being played. We sit a couple of rows behind the Director's Box and have a good view of what goes on. There seems to be a huge amount of handshakes, fake kisses and self congratulation going on. It got me thinking. Who would get my support? My view is that we (the fans and shareholders) hold ALL of the power. If the custodians / owners do not convince us they deserve our support - they have nothing. We have all of the future funding. No one has my support at this point. So who would get my support?? Someone who has a coherent plan and a vision for the future. Someone who has a sound, proven business track record. Someone who "sells" this plan and does not resort to criticising other parties. Someone who wants to take NOTHING out of Rangers. Someone who puts Rangers first and not themselves. Someone who commits to "What can I do for Rangers" and not "What Rangers can do for me" This may sound idealistic but I won't back anyone 100% unless they meet the above criteria. The recent games have focused the mind on what is required. What do you all think?

Agree with you completely mate. We are all hurting but we have to stick together and support the entire Rangers family.

Guys, can we all keep a bit of perspective here before we rip into each other. We are in the middle of a transfer embargo and had very little time to sign players. Some of these players are not Rangers class but they are all we have for the next 6 months or so. We all know that we have problems in the centre of defence but there is nothing that can be done about it. If anyone thinks that the management will allow the centre backs to be there next year they are having a laugh. We, as a support have been fantastic and need to stick together for this journey back to where we belong. Yes, days like today are difficult but it will make the successes in the future all the sweeter. The priority is to build the club for the future. Let's not get derailed by setbacks. Today demonstrates why Rangers need the fans to be strong and united. Cheers

I joined RM 14 Feb last year when the club needed support. 2012 will be remembered for an incredible effort by all associated with Rangers. I am so proud I was a little part of it. We are so much stronger and more aware now than ever before. We definitely are the people.

Like your style Gogzy. All the best.

I thought there was a transfer embargo?

Agree. Guys it would great if we were destroying teams and playing silky football but we're not. Unfortunately there is a massive rebuilding process going on at all parts of our club and a huge fight to protect our history and what we stand for. This is the priority as far as I am concerned. The positive side is that all us Bears are uniting behind a common goal. Rangers. Of course we need to question but I think we have come a long way the last 3 months and the entire club should be shown loyalty and patience fot their efforts. All the best

Good post. Agree with every point you made. This info has been common knowledge for some time now. What we really need is some competent investigative journalist to follow this up and ask the obvious questions and not accept the stock answers. No one seems to want to take this on. If I was an up and coming journalist i would go for this. This is a story will provide plenty of headlines and exclusives for someone with balls. It worries me that no journalist is running with this. Any ideas why?

Exactly. How are Regan and Doncaster still both in their positions after the complete shambles they have presided over? I, and i'm sure most people and even journalists, were sure at least one of them had to go. The fact that they are all still in position is very concerning. Add in the Harper McLeod conflict of interest and it looks to me like a cabal of untouchables protecting each other. The fact that the press are not asking any questions is incredible but I suspect that regardless of public pressure they will all remain in position to try and strip titles. This is turning out to be an investigative journalists dream. Apologies for the above being slightly negative but it is forcing our fractured support to come together as one. If we continue supporting the club we will overcome anything that is thrown at us. I know that results and on the park performances have not been acceptable but the big priority just now is off the park. We have to protect our history and rebuild all parts of our club. Even when the results have been poor, I feel that there is a definite sense of optimism and togetherness which I've not witnessed before. I hope to look back in 10 years time and feel that I have contributed in my own way to Rangers' full recovery. I hope you all do to and we stick together to support the team, the manager, the chief exec and each other. Cheers guys. Have a good day.

If I was a young, ambitious, fearless journalist I would be looking for an interesting story which might result in worldwide attention. The link between Celtic boys club and Penn State is so obvious that it demonstrates how compliant the mhedia in our country is. This demonstrates clearly how journalists are clearly afraid to ask the difficult questions. What kind of state do we live in?

Do you think the fact that we are being attacked so openly will galvanise us even further and mobilise to deal with this nonsense far more effectively. The press are not asking the simple questions. Why was the Celtic EBT acceptable? They simply accept the SPL's statement. Why are they not linking Penn State and Celtic? The Penn State story went worldwide. If one of the journalists had some credibility and balls they would have quite a story..Instead they settle for regurgitating the same old garbage.

Cheers DH, was beginning to think that no one was interested in this. It demonstrates how interlinked SPL / Celtic are. Does anyone seriously think we have been treated fairly over the past few months? It seems that we would rather indulge in petty in fighting which serves no purpose that the take a good look at what is happening. We should not play the victim card or be upset about what is going on at present - we should keep our eyes wide open and call out unfairness where we see them. We need to stick together and be determined to fight our corner. I only put the info out there to try and demonstrate how plenty businesses in Glasgow operate.

Not at all. Celtic lawyers = SPL lawyers who are investigating Rangers EBT payments. This strengthens the link.

No. Their lawyers.

Lawwell's daughter now works for Celtic's lawyer. Surely this is yet another conflict of interest?
