My point is look at the way you discuss other teams, I'm not sure how you'd expect others to react to your description? Of course there are elements of Rangers being the biggest team, and when we're at our lowest, people are going to take aim.

Maybe it's the way you're talking about "immigrant bastards" and talking about "pitying diddy teams". Swings in roundabouts, and if you're willing to dish out the judgements, you need to accept you'll get them back.

CroPod is the best one out there, always a good laugh.

Earlier this month members of RangersMedia were casting their votes for the RangersMedia Player of the Year 2012/13. Carlos Bocanegra was the lucky man to receive the award last year, but this season's contest was a bit more of a one-man affair! Lewis Macleod and Andy Little finished in joint 3rd, with 16% of the votes, Super Lee was the runner up with 24%, but the winner, with an impressive 38% of the RangersMedia votes, was Lee Wallace! It has become an unwritten rule in modern football that loyalty is all but dead in the water. Players sign for a club, they speak of the passion, the fans, and the brilliance of the place, but as soon as a bigger offer comes in, they are back out the door at the blink of an eye. This theory was, in the whole, backed up last summer as a group of players that claimed themselves to be Rangers fans walked out the door at the first chance – seizing on an opportunity of a bigger cheque. In amongst all the controversy and the players leaving stood Lee Wallace. As Rangers took the very first small step back to the top, Lee Wallace was amongst the first three senior players to commit themselves by transferring over to the “newco”. Alongside Kyle Hutton, a player still developing as a footballer, and Lee McCulloch, a player entering the twilight of his career, Wallace showed a loyalty that others couldn’t. There was no security and no stability at this point, and the way in which Lee signed up as he enters the prime of his career cannot be praised highly enough. Jeopardizing a national career and perhaps the opportunity of a bigger wage plying his trade in the English leagues, the former Hearts man took a risk that will see his story recounted for future generations. This within itself deserves to be honoured, and since then, Lee Wallace has represented the club with the upmost professionalism and pride. Where others have struggled to find the motivation to perform at their highest level this year, Lee Wallace is a player that has shown a consistency and a drive matched by few others. His role at left back has been one of a very select few positions that have been almost an automatic choice, and one of a few players that the fans feel they can rely on to perform at their highest level on a consistent basis. In the way an Arthur Numan or a Sasa Papac has done in recent years, Lee Wallace has made the Rangers left back slot his own. His forward-thinking play and drive has been a great source of creation for the team this year, and has been as important as his role as arguably one of the only reliable defender Rangers have at the moment. His loyalty and professionalism has been rewarded with the role of vice-captain of the club, and when captain, Lee McCulloch has been missing through injury, Wallace has stepped into the most coveted of roles. His contribution has been telling, and his three goals from left-back cannot be forgotten about. At the age of 25, Lee Wallace has once more demonstrated his talent as arguably the best left back Scotland has to offer. He has consistently shown he is one of the fittest players currently plying their trade at Rangers, and he has a drive and motivation to match. His balance of a flying left back and attending to his defensive duties has lead to his development into a ‘fans favourite’. But perhaps more importantly, his commitment has spoken volumes. With the best years of his career still to come, Lee Wallace may already have written himself into a bit of Rangers history, but there is so much else he is capable of. As one of the few players looking worthy of leading the club back to the top flight once more, Lee Wallace has the chance in the coming years to solidify himself as a Rangers Legend. Congratulations to Lee Wallace, RangersMedia’s Player of the Year 2012/13! Before the home match against Peterhead, three lucky RangersMedia members were ready and waiting in the historic Ibrox tunnel, to present the award to Lee. No.12, Broxi and feda16 had won the chance to meet Lee (and the near enough the rest of the first team as it turned out!) by expressing their interest in the Player of the Year voting thread, and their names were picked at random out of the hat. Lee was delighted with the award and thanked all the RangersMedia members who voted for him!

12-12-18 is dead in the water. You can't reject it one week and then expect to pick it up again a week later. I'd be shocked if there was any reconstruction in place for next season.

I don't know. I just don't know.

Trollololololol.

Better seats than First Bus. I'm sold.

They Sound great!

My google search was less than productive!

A part of me is wondering if he didn't, why was he at St Mirren Park wearing a black and white tie? On the other hand, what exactly would Green have to offer to "talk Gilmour around"?

Now that sounds an idea.

Our chairman was made to sit outside for a board meeting ? Christ, what a mess!

Albion Rovers is perhaps the most generic name for a football team ever. I dunno what it's even supposed to mean.

It's perhaps something you'd find in a literary classic, I doubt someone off the Internet could make it up though.

http://garrycarmody.wordpress.com/2013/04/13/sanity-and-unity/ I know I've had my differences with people on here about the subject, but it's time we all regrouped.

So we have Green on the board as "In the know". Is "theinsidetrack" Malcolm Murray?

Anyway this has turned into one of the saddest Friday's ever . I think there's little else that can be said until the board meeting has taken place. But it's coming across as much needed right now, and I'd like to hope the picture will look a lot clearer once the meeting has taken place. Nice swapping opinions with you chaps, no doubt we'll meet again soon!

An 8% silent shareholder (who could seek permission to sell his shares) really doesn't have much power, do they? I'd like to hope it changes a lot though, simply to have a more level headed figure in charge. If we can be taken away from the likes of the Sun interviews, STV interviews, and if we can manage to halt the almost 30 pence drop in the price of shares it would be a start. Does it suddenly solve everything? No it doesn't, but I'd like to think it would put us on a more steady path than the one I currently feel we're on.

It changes the outlook of it. You don't have the "face of the board" surfacing on tapes and whatnot every second day. Of course it doesn't take Whyte out the picture completely, but the person dealing with it does not have a massive question mark looming over their head in relation to the whole thing.

I'm still to see the proof of this for a start. Of course discussions with Whyte were needed, and I think it was Kennedy who came out to say he wasn't this bad guy he was being made out to be, but several meetings? Incorrect statements about how many times they had met? Bounced cheques? I'm not so sure.

Seriously, when you could see there was a spelling mistake in his name, could you not have disregarded it as the pish it was?

Not if his dealings behind the scene have been potentially damaging to the club, no.

Not quite, take a look at my last post. For a start, I think we need a complete break away from the Whyte links. We can talk all day about how the links can be perceived, but they are simply not healthy for the club at the moment. We can go further down the route of someone a bit more level headed, and someone a bit more savvy at dealing with the press, but right now I think we need a complete break from the Whyte stuff. As I'd be willing to put money on this barely touching the surface on what is there to drip out.

But what I'm saying is that to say he's gained our trust due to the way he had backed us against the media, SFA, etc, is to say he's gained our trust for taking good advice on how to win the fans around. That's something I'm not comfortable with. Anyone with a bit of front and a PR man could do it. I'm not going to deny Green hasn't done some good for the club, but as someone said the other day, this is quite quickly becoming "The Charles Green Show" featuring Rangers, and it simply isn't healthy for the club. Of course we have an idealistic picture of what we want for a CEO that isn't happening, but that doesn't mean there isn't someone more suited to what we need right now. (And before someone asks, I'm not looking for Martin Bain back - a middle ground without a growing dodgy link to a nutjob would be nice).
