A business can be run legally or illegally, ethically or not and still make money.A sustainable business should be legal and the Directors should adhere to ethical codes of conduct. Knowing something is rotten in the state of Denmark and turning a blind eye to it isn't acceptable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig 14 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 This is a horrible interview, pardon my ignorance but can someone please tell me who Hugh Adam is and what role he played at Rangers the time he was here? And also, Is he a Rangers fan? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimfanciesthedude 25,617 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Yup. frankly the double standards on this thread are hilarious. jimbeams just the latest example.what double standards, im questioning why any of the previous board members connected with our club never took the stance that Hugh Adam did, ive never had an opinion of Hugh Adam as i didnt really know the situation until todays revelations, and i agree with himfunny how everyone defends AJ and the rest of the old regime for standing up to Whyte, yet these shitebags never said a word to/about Murray when he was playing with fire in regards to our clubIf double standards are evident on here its the AJ supporters by a fucking country mile Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebestest 2,150 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Missed this earlier, Hugh Adam is a man in his 90s and you want him hounded by fans?And he is a very clever man, as was demonstrated in a long and illustrious business career. Compared to yourself, who advocates hounding octogenarians.I am prepared to retract my statement. Apologies for jumping the gun - I am just completely frustrated at the situation we are in and I didn't realise he was so senior. I'll edit the post (but I'm still annoyed with him).

The Beast 9,499 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Adam is a bitter (and possibly senile) old shit of a man.I had the misfortune to have some business dealings with him in the early nineties and his sanity was questionable back then.

nvager 498 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Rangers pools did make rangers a lot of money and did help build the stadium but i think you are over egging that pie.Him staying silent if he knew what was going on makes him as culpable as anyone else (if true)Two shots across the bow (one timed to cause rangers trouble) does not make him one fo the good guys, far from it.some sense here1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
