  1. Seems some peoples ego's are more important than the actual event,If there is any truth in what i'm being told then the both of them should be ashamed.

    This was an event for people to raise money for an excellent cause and everyone involved done a fantastic job and deserve a huge pat on the back for all their hard work and effort,If indeed two people think their ego's are more important than this charity event, Then both of them should be embarrassed with their childish spitting of the dummy's.

    The shite with the toilets at the scum is a good example, no idea why cunts do it.

    If they hadn't done it the headlines would have been all about the unwashed,Our own fans helped to turn a story about them into more of a story about Rangers fans and gave the media the option to even things out,If they hadn't uploaded anything then all the headlines were about them and rightly so. 

  3. It's in regards to someone being asked not to take pictures or video's, This was afterwards in the bar area when the beers were flowing and the songs were in full voice,Think it's pretty obvious why they were asked to refrain from doing so when it involved an ex player and we all know how the media loves things like this when it involves any Rangers connection.

    Apparently he's one booking away from a suspension aswell so if his red is reduced to a yellow he'll still miss Ibrox. 

    According to a tarrier in my work anyway. 

    If it's downgraded to a yellow he's over the points threshold and his ban wouldn't kick in till after the Rangers game at Ibrox.

  5. Wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if it's downgraded to a yellow given those in the media's views who think it wasn't a sending off, There is no doubt the unwashed will base their appeal on the same that they thought it was worthy of a yellow and will cite other incidents from other games which received a yellow for a similar tackle.

    If it's downgraded to a yellow Brown will then go over the points threshold and his ban won't come into affect until two weeks later, Which means he will be able to play in the game at Ibrox.

    I can also recall Miller getting sent off in a midweek game(Wednesday) and Rangers put the appeal in on the Thursday and it was thrown out the same day which meant he couldn't play in the Hogmany game against Celtc.

    It's quite hard to believe that the SFA have a list of around 100 people who they claim they pick at random to sit on these appeal panels, Then look at a video clip that lasts about 10 seconds and determine if the red still stands, It makes a total mockery of the fast track system.

    Regan has also previously stated that they count a Saturday as part of the working week, That means it's a clear 5 days and the appeal should have been heard this week.

    The fast track system was put in place to prevent clubs from abusing it basing their appeals on nothing more than simply taking advantage of it and the SFA are letting them abuse it.

    In the case of Miller they knew Rangers were simply trying to play for time to allow him to play and the reason why they dealt with it the same day the appeal was put in and threw it out.. Celtc are doing the exact same thing Rangers did and the SFA know this but use the excuse of a public holiday as to how they can't deal with it even knowing they are cheating the system and gaining an advantage for nothing more than to make sure Brown plays.. Same scenario as Miller but a completely different way it was dealt with.

    If also Brown's red card is downgraded to a yellow it means they are admitting the referee got it wrong and will merely increase the masonic referee shite, The referee decision should be final as the tackle was well worthy of a red card and if they lose the appeal then Brown should get a larger ban.

    The SFA once uttered the words "Sporting integrity"  Perhaps they would be best served looking at that again. 

  6. Where is he getting the £30m figure from to compete ?

    They are more or less the same team we knocked out of the Scottish cup,Granted they thumped us at the towers of shame 5-1, Since then they managed a very narrow 1-0 win in the league cup, A 2-1 win at Ibrox but for the gloryhunting of Forrester could have been so different and a 1-1 draw at the towers of shame when we could have easily won it... They aren't miles in front of Rangers, We have had a very poor season dropping lots of points when we shouldn't have along with very poor performances with a bang average side.

    If we could move on Garner,Waghorn and McKay and put the cash towards a fund of say £15/20m then Rangers will be right back in the mix, All the club is lacking right now is 4 or 5 decent quality players.

    The unwashed signed Sinclair and Dembele for around £3.5m and have made a big difference to their team.. Two players.

    There is nothing stopping us picking up similar players for the same money and doing well for Rangers, But the downside is you only have to look at the money spent on Garner to see how easy it is to get it wrong.

    Can't see us spending anywhere near the money required and if not next season will be maybe slightly better than this season.

  7. It's no more than some unwashed reptile trying to wind people up,Thought the clue in the first four words would have gave it away.

    The other clue is the response to someone making a spelling mistake and the one behind the twitter correcting it.

    No more than a poor attempt to put the bait out to see how many people throw abuse at him or threats of violence and then the media will run a story about all the abuse on it from Rangers supporters and how he'll need police protection from all these big bad Rangers supporters.

    Don't take the bait and ignore it.

  8. Liam Brady and note how Cairney is removed by the Celtc FC board and not CBC, Despite Celtc FC denying CBC were affiliated to them.

    Quote

    'In 1991, the boys’ club had been to Kearney, New Jersey - an annual tour to the Irish part of the state with players staying at the homes of Catholic families - and one boy, no longer at Celtic but now a professional player in Scotland, had alleged to his hosts and to his own family that he had been assaulted by the team’s general manager, Frank Cairney. 

    The boy’s father took him to Celtic Park to have it out with Liam Brady who was then only months in the job as team manager. The club’s chief scout John Kelman was also present.

    It was Brady’s first serious and most affecting problem in a troubled time at Parkhead which did not last long. He listened to the boy, believed him, and insisted to the board that Cairney had to be removed, not only from the boys’ club but from any association with the main football club. So, overnight, the man who was used to having his run of the place and the ear of the management, was cast out.

    It was agreed, by Brady, the boy and his parents and the then Celtic board, that the police would not be informed. The young player was assured that the alleged incident would have no effect on his future career at the club. However, signed statements were taken by Celtic’s lawyers from the four adults who had been on the New Jersey trip.

    Away from first-team and club matters, which were bad enough, another issue was beginning to raise its ugly head at the club. Within a month of my arrival one of the young players asked to see me in my office. 'Here we go,' I thought. 'That didn't take long. Here's a youngster in to complain about not being in the team. Straight away he's going to be into me to give him his chance.' He sat down and told me that he had had problems on a trip to North America with the youth team. One of the fellas in charge had made advances towards him.

    As a manager you expect to have to sort out all sorts of problems. But this wasn't one I ever saw coming. I was staggered. To be frank, I didn't know how to respond for the best. Clearly the kid was distressed about what had happened, but I felt I couldn't just approach the accused and ask him to explain himself without proof. My hands were tied, in a way. I felt completely stuck and out of my depth. I spoke to my staff. They were shocked. My gut feeling was that the kid was speaking the truth, but there was no mechanism within the club or within my experience to deal with it. It was a police matter if anything. Any investigation had to start with them.
    And that's exactly what happened.

    A couple of years later it all came out. Celtic Boys' Club founder Jim Torbett was convicted of sexual abuse of three players, including Alan Brazil.

    Frank Cairney, the manager of the Boys' Club, was charged but not convicted. It emerged that years earlier Jock Stein knew all about Torbett and kicked him out of the club. The wish to maintain the good name of Celtic, if that were ever a good enough reason, was the only thing that kept the issue from coming to light at that point. There was a string of allegations by young lads whose dreams of playing for Celtic were exploited, but it was the testimony of Alan Brazil, David Gordon and James McGrory that brought the matter to court, and Torbett to justice. [from Football, My Life. by LOU MACARI]

    This other guy King who has been charged, He also worked with Torbett and Kelly at the trophy centre.

    I'll repeat once again that given all the information available there was a pedophile ring operating between the 60's and 80's, Who knows how many others have been the victims of these scumbags and have been sitting for decades tortured by it.

    Remember Celtc claimed CBC weren't anything to do with them, So why then were the parents and these children speaking to officials of Celtc FC in regards to child abuse and more to the point why were officials of Celtc FC the ones removing these people after claiming they had nothing to do with them.

    Wouldn't be to sure about that. now Torbett is squarely back in the frame and he could squeal on them so he doesn't take all the blame (plea bargain).  

    Kelly knew what was going on,His mealy mouth response in the programme was no more than a continuation of the cover up,Also continued to be involved with the Trophy centre despite Torbet going to prison.

    Surprised that Cullen didn't even merit get a mention either.

    Quote

    He admitted inviting the children to a house in Glasgow between January and December 1982 before getting them to pose for the camera.

    Liz Ramsey, prosecuting, said it was agreed the boys who were photographed were aged between 10 and 13.

    Despite the help of Scotland Yard's special paedophile unit, their identities were never discovered.

    Were these young kids members of Celtc boys club ?

    Jim McCafferty admitted to abusing kids during the 80's

    Frank Cairney was there from 1972 till 1991

    Cullen was also there during this time

    Torbett was there from 1966 till 1972 and came back and was there from 1986 to 1996

    That is a Paedophile ring right there and not just a coincidence.

    This is also pretty damming in regards to Kelly and circling the wagons with Torbett

    Quote

    But later Kelly, along with Torbett and boys’ club general manager Frank Cairney, asked Birt to resign. When he refused, Celtic withdrew his ticket to the directors’ box and he had no option but to get out. Torbett later invited Kelly to become a director of the Trophy Centre

    He (Birt) told how he took the allegations against Torbett to the Celtic board and Stein and even told the then vice-chairman, Kevin Kelly, about them at a meeting in his car. He said: “Although there were people who spoke to me I couldn’t go to the police without actual proof of the allegations. When I joined as chairman, I was told by Jock Stein to keep the name of Celtic Football Club clean at all times.”

    Kelly has played a huge part in this cover up.

    Why also wasn't Hugh Birt asked to comment on the programme ?

    Cairney also wasn't subject to just one complaint,He was also accued in the link here

    Why didn't Daly interview this guy along with Hugh Birt.

    Join the dots.

    Nah, Big names were involved with this at the beginning and I wouldn't want them tied to the mess it's become. This is a good opportunity for GM to get people onside by having a word with those involved with RFFF and getting them to do a break down of how the 600k+ has been spent. Where the money is held and what the balance is.

    It's held in the Rangers assembly account.

    There wasn't as someone else has stated that a new pitch was paid for,The top layer of the pitch was removed and re-seeded and found out earlier that Ibrox had the same,This was done when Green wasn't long in the door and cost was around £80k.

    I also know that there is just over £20k sitting somewhere,Where is anyone's guess, It was raised by the following groups

    £11k donated by Armagh RSC, £3k from the Hillsborough Ibrox Group and £4k from the Nithsdale RSC

    £2,050 was also collected from a Rangers v Liverpool game,All that money was raised to help fund a proper memorial for the Ibrox disaster at/or near the old stairway 13.

    Total £20,050

    Perhaps if anyone from these groups or involved in the Rangers memorial fund could update us as to what's happening with this money or how far away from the amount needed we are.

    Wrong, I was hoping Mhairi Mackenzie would get the job but GM got it instead. That's why my questions were directed at GM, Just incase he had logged in anonymously to view peoples opinions.. JH failed to answer my 2nd question hopefully GM can do a better at finding out what happened.

    1. How much money has Rangers wasted on repairs due to vandalism at away games?

    2. What happened to the RFFF money and accounts?

     

    Don't think the club would announce the cost to anyone as it's a private matter between the clubs, Well depends who you play.

    It's went very quiet in regards to the RFFF since they announced the plans what they were attempting to do with it, Last year it was a stand and changing facility's, Strange thing is that when they put up an artists impression of the finished build it was the same images used by the club from a year or two earlier, Which means these plans were something the club where looking at previously, Just a sheer coincidence of course.

    It's the fans money and the fans should have a final say in where the money goes, Not a group of people who have never had to stand for re-election in 5 years.

    Dingwell(The coffee cup salesman) is the secretary and anyone including myself who have asked for audited accounts,Fund balances, Is usually met with a wall of silence and none of them ever answer questions put to them.

    Some of the money was used to pay off creditors, These were only small sums and given there are a lot of small creditors on the list, They just stopped paying them. Quite a lot of it has been spent on legal fees,Some of it was spent on re-grassing the pitches at Auchenhowie,Not sure if Ibrox was also done.

    Some of it was spent sending a boys football team to a tournament after funding fell through and money was used from the fund and donated to the club for the new indoor pitch.. Surprising but not shocking is that none of them have ever put this information on any of the fan sites and you mostly get the information from 3rd party's.

    The strangest thing of all.. When we went into admin we owed Dunfermline £18k for match tickets, Given the SFA stated that Rangers had to pay all it's football debts, The RFFF paid Dunfermline £18k and informed the SFA that debt was now cleared.

    The SFA then told the club they had to pay the debt and not the RFFF, So the club paid it AGAIN.

    Dunfermline then went into admin soon after and now for the strange bit. When this money was paid/transferred into Dunfermline's bank account there would be at least some sort of letter/email/acknowledgment of transaction.

    So in effect Dunfermline were paid twice, Even more strange is when you look at the list of Dunfermline's creditors the RFFF is absolutely nowhere to be found despite them owing the RFFF a refund of £18k.

    Even stranger again is this is what one of the committee members called Waltersboy said when asking questions of the money that should have been repaid.

    Quote

    They refused to recognise the money As paid and had us for disrepute

    You'll note the short answer and there was nothing else said after this and bear in mind what he's claiming in his post, Not even a defense of "There is proof it was paid" nor even "We're seeking legal advice" absolutely nothing, In fact for someone on a RFFF committee he doesn't seem to show much concern or anger at what Dunfermline are claiming and doesn't even give an explanation to the bit about "Having us for disrepute"

    That's how they treat those that donated,No explanation,Nothing and it's never been mentioned since.

    These are people including Dingwell who are trusted by voting themselves onto a committee entrusted to look after a very large substantial amount of money.

    Nobodys accusing them of anything, But the severe lack of information and what looks like a shrug of the shoulders reply when £18k has been paid to another club who denied they were paid it.. Fuck is going on here.

    Oi. If I am not getting to decide then neither are you. 

    In all seriousness, the new manager is just in the door. He needs to assess his squad and determine what he needs. Then he will see fit to give an extended deal or not. No way will it be 2 years though. 

    Granted his age does go against him slightly, But if he maintains his fitness then why not.

    He's also a much better option than Waghorn, Think Miller will be looking for a 2yr deal but still think he would accept a 1yr deal with perhaps a view to extending it if he does well.

    If the manager has someone else in mind and he's better than Miller then that's fair enough, But if he doesn't it makes sense to keep him.

    Now why did you have to go and let those pesky things known as facts get in the way of yet another tin foil hat anti board conspiracy theory?

    He was interviewed at Ibrox,I can pm you the source if required.

    If we have to remove the asbestos whether we knock it down or renovate then surely it would be better to start from scratch and have the site fit the needs of a modern building rather than develop a dilapidated 60's box, which when I was in the Function suite in the. 90's was quite dated. 

    Ibrox primary has loads of asbestos in it and the council have spent loads of money on it modernising it, Doesn't mean because it has asbestos it should be knocked down, The council spent the money on the school because it wasn't viable to remove it,pay for demolition and build a new school.

    Lots of old run down building can be bought and renovated easily to bring them into the modern world, There's some real nice materials that can be used like timber and stone cladding to sort the outside.

    But it all comes down to cost.
