  1. I joined RF at its launch paying £500 for a life membership,and £18.72 a month on DD,I cancelled the DD after the takeover.now at 80 I wish to hand this life membership to my RSC. I have been told This is not possible,and I can only bequeath it. However Whitney tied to buy one on the cheap,has the rules changed,or was he a special case.

    As you will be aware following the announcement from Club 1872, all 3 of us have resigned as directors. We considered it an honour and a privilege to be voted to serve on the board of Club 1872 by our fellow Rangers fans, and those of you who know each one of us personally will understand how painful it was for us to leave an organisation we firmly believed in and worked tirelessly to establish since our election.


    We feel it is incumbent upon us to outline to members the reasons why we felt our positions had become untenable. As anyone who has served on a board or committee will know there will always be differences of opinion and varied interpretations on matters and the Club 1872 board was no different in that respect.


    However, throughout our tenure we found the conduct of one director particularly challenging, causing all of us to make considerable personal compromises at times. However last week a situation arose, which we felt compromised the organisation rather than ourselves, and that was one compromise we were not prepared to make under any circumstances.


    As many of you will be aware Rangers have recently advertised two job vacancies in respect of a Social Media Officer and a Supporters Liaison Officer. At Club 1872 we were informed recently that the latter of these two roles would be our main point of contact at the club in the future.


    Word subsequently reached some of the Club 1872 board members that one of our directors had applied for the position of Supporters Liaison Officer. However, as no notification had been received from the director in question this matter remained as nothing more than a rumour.


    Matters came to a head when the director in question intimated he, in addition to two Club 1872 directors who had already confirmed their attendance, would attend a meeting at Ibrox facilitated by Rangers Security personnel. This meeting was in respect of the forthcoming Old Firm fixture at which both Police Scotland and Club 1872 were invited participants.


    As persons present at this meeting from Rangers were to be involved in the interview and recruitment process for the vacant Supporters Liaison role concerns were raised within the Club 1872 board. As nothing had yet been received in writing to the Club 1872 board this necessitated a phone call by one director to the director in question at which time it was established he had in fact applied for the role of Supporters Liaison Officer.


    On such confirmation, the director in question was advised that it would not be appropriate for him to attend this meeting. In essence, we had a Club 1872 director who had applied for a job at Rangers, attending a meeting where persons from the club who were not only involved in the interview and recruitment process, but would also have direct line management responsibility for the post in question, were present.


    Despite such advice and the concerns of fellow board members, the director in question attended the meeting.


    We tendered our resignations shortly thereafter.


    We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere apologies to all members, and in particular, those who voted for us. However, all 3 of us believe that by resigning in such circumstances we were reflecting the standards, values and principles which saw us elected.

    Who ever our new manager may be I would hope that he takes a leaf out of the Souness play book and starts building from the back. GS signed Chris Woods and Terry (Turncoat) Butcher along with the likes of Graham Roberts and John Brown who made it incredibly difficult for the opposition to score against us.

    As the thread title suggests, stating the obvious, stop them scoring and we will win, it is no surprise that we are struggling at the moment because in my 40 odd years of following Rangers I have never seen us so weak at the back.

    Oh for a rejuvenated John Greig.

    I'd settle for Marvin Andrews just now.

    I don't know if this is just an internet thing, but most bears I talk to offline are more inclined to have a grasp on what was expected this season. I think pretty much everyone apart from some of our own tipped us for 2nd/3rd in the league, even a lot of our own, based of where we had come from and what we had spend. We don't have the players of old where we're going to dominate teams and win 3, 4 and 5-0 on a regular basis, we've not went out and spent anything that great on players and we're trying to get back on our feet. So 2nd/3rd was pretty much the place that was being touted pre season.

     

    Based of what you've saw so far and what you were expecting. Do you think this season has been enjoyable and are you looking forward the the rest of the season?

     

    I'll answer this as well. My opinion is it has been good in places and bad in other places. I'd of like Warburton and co to have the balls for the fight and want to stay till the end of the season at least. A few players like Barton, Niko and young Jordan R would have made a world of difference if they were all fit, apart from Barton ofc. But apart from that it's been alright. I don't expect us to go out and beat teams like we used to when our current squad is only worth 15-20% of what it should be.

    Well firstly I am glad to be there,but oh so disappointed in our results,thought we would have been closer to them,and an easy runners up spot.

    It might be a symptom of being stuck in the house instead of at the game today, but that was the worst I've watched. Inept from start to finish, every bad thing about the team on display.

    A positive MW interview to come, players walking away from Ibrox today thinking that was acceptable because of the three points, repeat.

    There will be games like that thro this season,the points were more important
