thebooler 4,509 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I think its past your bedtime, sad and silly post.Lets stay on topic. How are the followers taking this sudden change of direction?Serious question, as I'd be wondering WTF was going on if it was me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebooler 4,509 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 if this is true, and I have yet to see exactly what the Trust have stated, then you must give the RST tremendous credit. Either they have been given the assurances they were seeking, or they have decided that now that we actually can purchase season tickets (we could not when the initial statement was made) to change their minds. A humble organisation willing to change their stance for the greater good of the club deserves tremendous credit. No real damage has been done and the haters will hate anyway.You don't happen tae be a newspaper reporter, writing such a load of shite?They got it wrong. They've now righted their wrong. Simples.There's no need for all that shite ye've just written about the situation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simples.There's no need for all that shite ye've just written about the situation.Of course my response was slight tongue in cheek, but the majority of posts on this topic have been rather one sided without seeing the bigger picture. The statement was initially made by the Trust when we could not purchase season tickets, so at the time the statement was designed to put pressure on Green to answer some reasonable queries from the rangers support. Did that work? I am not so sure, but if the line now from the RST when we can purchase season tickets is 'go get them', then I struggle to see the major issue.I had previously stated that I was not entirely convinced that telling the support to not buy season tickets was a wise move, as that was fraught with danger. However, what real damage has been done? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, what real damage has been done?Let me give ye an example.There's 2 young lads in my village who've been arguing with everybody that they won't be buying ST's, and neither should anybody else. Basically, they were led up the wrong path by a Trust who they believe to be acting in the best interests of Rangers FC. I'm now looking forward to seeing them on Friday, and asking them if they're still taking the advice of said Trust, and doing exactly the opposite of what they've been arguing with everyone about for the past few weeks.It should be an interesting conversation to say the least.

TheBluenose1972 1,405 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 The Rangers Supporters Trust Twitter account is now recommending supporters renew/buy season tickets.Hahahaha.... So today it was really busy at the Ticket Office with fans ignoring Dingwall and his RST cronies and all of a sudden the RST has a change of mind? Idiots the lot of them they will be on the next takeover bandwagon and badmouthing Green! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made a cunt of it, they know they did and now they've backed down and accepted the humiliation.Humble? The RST are about as humble as the bastard offspring of Muhammad Ali & Brian Clough.Yes, the haters in the RST will continue to hate. That's the only relevant observation in your otherwise dreadful post. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
