Ali Russell and Gordon Smith have agreed to leave Rangers.

[Bears r us 30,803]

I don't know much about Russell but everyone should me wishing Gordon Smith well.

He's a great Rangers man and very intelligent.

Both men have put out dignified statements and can hold their heads up high as they walk out the front door.

This, I sent a wee letter to Gordon when he was appointed and got back a nice reply.

I'm not surprised. GS is an absolute gent.

I cannot understand some of the comments on here about him. It makes me ashamed to be honest.

[amcewan 1]

Really sorry Gordon had to go.

He's a good guy and should have been good for the club.

Ally also had a good reputation and could have done a good job.

Shame they are getting undeserved stick.

despite them bein made redundant u can hear the ta1gs sniggering...'i thought the motto was, We dont do walking away?!'

[Zappa6995 3,656]

Good luck to both of them, they dont deserve to lose their jobs but unfortunately more will follow and I wish them all the best and hope they can find alternative employment.

[Creampuff 22,628]

Hmm.. I always liked Ali Russell.

No, I only hear you saying it. As has been said many times before, who gives a fuck what they think. Do you?

The way I view Smith's comments is that they add even more credence to the idea that Whyte planned to put us into administration all along. If he was planning to put us into administration from square one, then he would never have been interested in letting Smith do his job properly.

Whyte only hired Smith as a face for the director's box and the cameras, a credible Rangers man.

I'm surprised it's taken Gordon Smith till now to speak up about it though. He should have resigned and spoken up a LOT sooner rather than leave it till now.

Yes absolutely, if he wasn't getting to do his job then let the world know

He missed a chance to let us know earlier what this cunt was like

I doubt Gordon smith was in on this con from Whyte. A victim like the rest of us as he is a good rangers man.

i agree, good gers man

They both leave at the end of the month and news of other staff expected next week. Smith not a happy man with CW.

Story here

[Colonel Mustard 380]

Shocking news.

Why has no one posted about it before this?

[TheBluebells 6,898]

Heard something about a taxcase too, anyone else heard this?

Not really, but someone says that there is some kind of issue with a company called Ticketus.

[Misteral 2,932]

Just seen another thread posted earleir. oops. I'm a wee bit bit behind the times in China

[gunslinger 270]

hope the staff are ok.

Sure a mod will merge them

Wonder if other high profile exits are coming up before the week ends.

Threads should only be merged if something new has been said.

As others have said, Gordon Smith is a good Rangers man.

As for Ali Russell, I still consider it something of a shame as many of his initial ideas and plans, particularly relating to the selling and marketing of the club sounded really promising. Also, a lot of what he was speaking about and planning were things that should have been done long, long ago by us as a Club.

I wish them both well.

[Thermopylae 15,286]

I wonder if Gordon will go on Radio Scotland and spill the beans about whyte?

The whole thing really does make you wonder if whyte only appointed familiar faces like him and Ally to distract the fans from what he was doing behind the scenes
