Smirkey1963 0 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Let's fire a warning shot across their bows - we won't take their crap lying down. http://www.petitiononline.com/gers52/petition.html Please copy this across to all other forums and forward the link to every bluenose in your addressbook. Wording of the petition: We, loyal supporters of The Rangers Football Club, express our dismay at the apparent lack of support given by the Lloyds Banking Group to our Club. We appeal to your commercial good sense (to the extent that such still exists within your discredited, 43% state-owned company) to continue to provide Rangers with the necessary facilities to ensure our success. We will have no hesitation in calling for a nationwide boycott of all your brands should such support be withdrawn: Lloyds TSB, Bank of Scotland, Halifax, C&G, Black Horse, Intelligent Finance, Scottish Widows, Clerical Medical, Birmingham Midshires, Lex, St James's Place Bank, Insight Investment. Signed it said with the pressure they are putting on my club as i have both a personal and business account with them i will closing / moving my accounts elsewhere might not do much good but neither will sitting on our hands well done Rangers till i Die !!!

GrumpyRyan 8 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Fantastic Stuff I am altering an old Myspace account and will put all the info up on it and increase the friend list over the week. myspace.com/w3sounds I may change all the colours and will throw up links to the petition, release bulletins, Blogs, any photos anyone has or banners made and links to Rangersmedia obviously. If folks have template letters to send to banks or other material I can use, I will throw it up on there. (tu) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the ideas laid out then instead of dismissing what peole are already doing For the Club, no. But the people signing it will probably get a nice warm feeling that they're 'doing something'. Ah you again...full of the joys of the world aren't you, if not asking admin to ban new accounts because they have an alternative opinion you are slating those who are actually trying to do something.

BlueIsTheColour 35 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Such as putting pressure on the Assembly and the RST, the only credible Rangers fan groups, to come together and make a strongly-worded statement on behalf of the Rangers support. Signing a daft fucking petition might make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside thinking you have saved the club, but in reality it does absolutely nothing. Online petitions are a guranteed failure and most won't make it off of the webiste they are on. Have a look at the comments and names, do you think the bank would take something like this seriously? Don't be so silly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be so silly. So have you began contacting the Assembly and the RST buddy??? How about you do that now if you can be bothered while the 577 people feeling all fuzzy and warm get on with giving this a bash eh? Take it you never signed and supported the fellow members of this forum who have taken the time to do so. Regardless if it works or not...you can at least try instead of having such a defeatist attitude toward it all Will you sign? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
