Creampuff 22,628 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 As I've said previously, Hills want the Ibrox contract - make it clear they will NOT be accepted when they are propping up this crooked FA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creampuff 22,628 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 For those that don't know - William Hill is the SFA's "official betting partner" I believe Ralf Topping ( William Hills top dog) sits on the SFA/SPL board. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchorman 85 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 This was the message I sent to Graham Sharpe this morning:Graham,It is unfortunate that your organisation should have to bear the brunt of a boycott of any kind through no fault of your own. However we, as supporters of Glasgow Rangers, are left with no choice but to take action into our own hands in defending our Club, which in this case is a boycott of all sponsors of the SFA (Scottish Football Association), including William Hill.I would therefore request that you cancel my account forthwith. You will soon be aware that this is to be a boycott in substantial numbers.Rangers Football Club is in a very precarious place at the moment, in that we are in administration, with liquidation looming large on the horizon if we don't get a prefferred bidder in the next few days. Duff & Phelps, the Club administrators, were working flat out to achieve that this week. Part of this is obviously trying to 'sell' the Club to potential buyers. On the eve of that decision the SFA decided to sanction Rangers Football Club with a fine of £160,000 and a YEAR LONG BAN ON SIGNING ANY PLAYERS. Needless to say the 'preferred bidder' process is now in turmoil.The administrators have described the SFA's actions and timing as "incomprehensible and draconian". They are trying to kill our Club off for WHATEVER reason when we are down and seemingly indefensible. We believe that as long as we have the best fans in the world in the vast numbers we have, we will always be the last and impenetrable line of defence. I hope you can understand why we are taking this action.RegardsLoyal member of the Rangers family Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

airdriebluenose 351 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 We should all email them saying that we will not be giving them any more custom! Keep it up lads, not even 24 hours passed and we are having an impact already! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitey126 42 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I like William Hill though To be fair, WH is my site of choice aswell, but guilt by association I'm afraid. Waiting on a bet paying out once the season ends, then I'll be taking my business elsewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky_ 893 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 i find it baffling punters would bet with william hill for any reason other than its handy for them to visit a shop. you can get far better value on betfair or 365.imo, sending individual emails wont go very far, if im being compeltely honest if i were director at hills getting a couple of hundred emails from angry rangers fans id probably just bin them without giving them any credability.if however the supporters groups get togehter and issue a boycott of SFA sponsors which is backed by all our fans to a man, then they will sit up & take note.

GOAT 30,449 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I can 100% confirm that every William Hill shop has had a message sent to them to report any potential losses, or customer complaints due to boycotts.
