Ricky_ 893 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Flashing along the bottom of the screen in the yellow bar on SSN right now:"Malcolm Murray apologises unreservedly for distress, disruption & difficulty inflicted on Scottish Football".I know the finer wording of the statement wasn't as clear cut and points blame to "previous regimes" but fuck me what a stupid thing to do. Think about what how this is going to be played out in the media.Whats the bet on headlines in the Sun & Record tomorrow being "WE'RE SORRY" 'Rangers finally apologize for cheating'?We should be fuckin fighting our corner, are even we throwing out the idea of "innocent until proven guilty" with regards to the btc & ebt scheme? Or are we somehow accepting blame for being victims of a fraudulent takeover when the authorites put in place to protect us sat about and let it play out for their own gain?Well done Malcolm Murray, even though i'm sure you were just trying to douse the flames with regard to the current situation, you've came across as a fuckin apologist and gave the media & the hateful scum in this country another stick to beat us with.

albabear 0 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 We need to change the story here, shift the focus on to SDM and Whyte, the statement is clear that they are to blame. We need to start to win some friends, we can't do this on our own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillWard 6 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I doubt David Murray is going to do any interviews until we hear the result from the FTT but he is the one that should be apologising Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 It cannot be that any supporter of Green & Co are even remotely surprised by this and neither should they be with events to follow over the coming days.Support the club - as you have done for years. I've come to realise it's pointless choking on the action of suits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky_ 893 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 I doubt David Murray is going to do any interviews until we hear the result from the FTT but he is the one that should be apologisingindeed, he will very much be of the stance that he's done nothing wrong, he's took advice from a top financial firm and until a judge says otherwise it was all above board. We should be adopting the same attitude until such time as verdict comes out, and if it transpires that Murray fucked up, then fine, take it from there.

NessFTW 40 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 you, or you wouldnt post I meant that I don't care if it is a 'PR disaster', as you put it, which I don't think it is anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRodgA2k8 542 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I wouldn't necessarily call it a PR disaster Ricky, it's fairly well presented and made apparent that the blame lies at the feet of certain individuals. People will like it, people won't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky_ 893 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 No one likes us oh wait, some do care about abuse fae Timmyi'm not one for giving a shit about the bedsheet banner loyal, but i do care how the club presents itself.Some feel that the statement is well worded, i wouldnt disagree, but if you don't think this is a PR disaster just wait for the morning papers.The wording actually used by Murray will be completely disregarded and the world will simply see this as an admission of guilt on the clubs behalf.So it's offiial then, we're guilty as charged.

The Godfather 71,865 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Like everything else in this saga it was always going to be put in a negative light by the media.It wouldn't matter what MM came out with tbh, it was always going to have this spin on it.Anyone with half a brain will read/watch his interview and take from it what is meant to be taken. Fuck them all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef 436 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Why a disaster OP, I see your post but why a disaster.
