OlegKuznetsov 10,816 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 From the Official Rangers Site: Click : http://www.rangers.c...green-statementCHARLES GREEN has today issued the following statement regarding an article in the matchday programme at Saturday's away game with Montrose.He said: “I and all our supporters were dismayed by some of the content of the matchday programme at Montrose on Saturday which was clearly intended to ridicule our Club."I have spoken personally to the Chairman of Montrose today and he and his fellow directors have offered Rangers an unreserved apology which I am happy to accept. “We were made extremely welcome at Montrose on Saturday and the club’s hospitality was fantastic, as has been our experience throughout the SFL this season.”Straight to the point and job done. Green sorts it out quickly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AljayBoy 2,384 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Well done Green for pulling their Chairman up, glad also that they apologised and it was accepted.Hope that draws a line under the issue and acts as a warning to other clubs.

cushynumber 25,178 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Its a little thing really - but it just helps accentuate the fact that we are the biggest fish in the pond and are no longer prepared to take the shite that we have done for the last god knows how many years.

elephants stoned 2,994 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Lovely to see such quick action from both us and Montrose on a rather immature and pointless action by whoever wrote that. If this were Murray he would say nothing and if it were Whyte he would pretend to take legal action, then forget about it. Changed days under Mr Green Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchy 1,200 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 CG has done the right thing, even if it was a minor transgression, at least he's leeting other clubs know that he's on top of the situation and he'll not stand fro these inaccuracies.I hope the other clubs take note, but then again, maybe they enjoy the 'extra' publicity as playing against Rangers may not be enough for them on it's own.

JohnHardie 1,405 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Has anyone found out who wrote it yet? There was a rumour on here that some prick from scotzine was the culprit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Sensible and mature reaction from both clubs.Expect the SFA will now appeal Montrose's decision to appologise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cammyfraserrfc 5 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Montrose statement --------------------------------------------------------------------------------PRESS RELEASEFollowing our match against Rangers last saturday it was brought to our attention 2 pages within the programme referred to several Rangers players transferred from "oldco" to "newco" and indeed ignored the history of Rangers Football Club over 140 years.Due to time restraints in producing the programmes our Programme Editor had accepted the pages submitted by our correspondent however Montrose Football Club readily accept any content printed within the programme must be our responsibility. At no time was the information on players or the club printed to create a slight to anyone connected with Rangers Football Club or indeed ignore a proud and successful history therefore, Montrose Football Club very much regrets the pages included may have caused offence and we unreservedly apologise to Rangers Football Club, the management, players and supporters if they felt this was the case.The DirectorsMontrose Football Club Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ger for life 199 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 That kind of guff is clearly written and preached by ignorant people who still believe that the world is flat!Unfortunately due to the brainwashed inferior education system they encountered in their younger days, they have been programmed to avoid the truth at all costs - especially where Rangers are concerned.There is no hope for such individuals and I suspect we will hear and read more of their bilge as we continue along the road to the top.
