JCDBigBear 10,831 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Well if they are Rangers men they'll have no problem telling the SFA to take a run & jump They don't sponsor the SFA. You can't just walk away from a contract and that is what Greaves have with the SFA. Why can't you take heed of what Sandy Jardine said?

JCDBigBear 10,831 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 admin@greavessports.comMight do nothing, but at least we can try.You have started a campaign to hurt a company which is a friend of Rangers FC. Greaves Sports does not sponsor the SFA. They have a contract with the SFA which is entirely different. Sandy Jardine asked the supporters clubs NOT to target Greaves.

JCDBigBear 10,831 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I wasn't aware of Sandy's comments.Greaves and G4S the security company were the 2 he stated categorically not to be targeted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellofollow 1 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 (a) Is this the Greaves that sells all the St Pauli gear to the vermin.(b) Do they sponsor Rangers, after all they are big Rangers men, allegedly.If the answers are a: yes, b: no, then sorry but fuck them.

hellofollow 1 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Greaves and G4S the security company were the 2 he stated categorically not to be targeted. G4S are the arseholes that make our fans lives a misey at every home game.Sandy Jardine has suddenly become the man we trust. In recent years he has been a disgrace to the Rangers support. He won't tell me what I should or shouldn't do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloonosed 14 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 So Sandy Jardine asks Rangers fans not to target a specific Rangers friendly company and your response is to ignore him.Do you work for Greaves or something ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paisleyroad 894 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 So have we now just to boycott companies that we suspect may not support Rangers? yes, that's a good look.the boycott is against any Brands connected or Sponsoring the SFA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCDBigBear 10,831 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Do you work for Greaves or something ?No. I do know that they are bluenoses. I was also at the supporters meeting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paisleyroad 894 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 You should target enemies, not friends.sorry mate but if as you say Sandy Greaves is Rangers man, then i'm fully expecting him to demand his brand name is taken from the SFA website . . . not that much to ask from a fellow Bear is it?

andy500 463 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 You should target enemies, not friends.The SFA are our enemies. The goal of this boycott is to make them an unattractive prospect for any sponsors and partners. Hit them where it hurts, in the pocket.We can't pick and choose who to boycott if we want to get our point across. That lacks credibility.

This is shooting ourselves in the foot. If I had a contract with the SFA I couldn't just tear it up. They would sue me. How does financially penalising a relatively small family business help Rangers cause? It has to be the big sponsors you target. They are the people with influence.

You target the big companies who SPONSOR the SFA and who have influence over the SFA.They partner them though. Both the SFA and Greaves benefit from this as it stands. And targeting big companies is less effective than targeting the small ones. What you are basically saying is, target any company who it won't really affect as much. That is a stupid strategy. Target all of them, no bias. If we want this to be taken seriously. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Target all of them, no bias. If we want this to be taken seriously.No, what I'm saying is that targeting a small company only affects the small company, it will have absolutely no effect on the SFA. The big sponsors are the companies which CAN have an influence. Targeting Greaves is a stupid strategy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Nose 10 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Anyone who is associated with the SFA are all fair game IMO, if they truly are Rangers friendly they wouldnt sell that St.Pauli shite and the green n grey hoops. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
