weedurranty 28 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 a few short weeks ago, CG was guiding us through all this mess and all of a sudden, BANG. He offers his resignation. I know he made some insensitive remarks etc. but something doesn't sit right here. Being from Canada doesn't give me the best "Nose to the pavement" you might have. Can anyone shed some light here? does this not wrankle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblueoysterbar 19,744 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I dunno mate.CG is a good and honest guy in my book. But who knows what's been going on behind the curtains. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Non_Sucumbi 876 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I'd say he has been the victim of a boardroom coup.Who is behind the coup?? Time will undoubtedly tell. My total disdain is towards whomever has been leaking information from the Rangers boardroom. Green was guiding us along quite nicely financially even if he was somewhat colorful with the truth at times. He did however appear to be on the right track.Then suddenly about two weeks ago there was a spectacular tsunami of anti-Green, anti-Rangers stories flooding the Scottish media. It seemed all too coincidental that all these stories emerged simultaneously.If Green has nothing to hide I do not expect him to be quiet for long. The silence when broken could be thunderous.

Bothwellbear 1,392 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 To be honest i think its because of what could come out in that independent enquiry. I don't see CG being pushed out by anyone quietly. He doesn't seem the type. I can only thank him for his efforts and wish him all the best.

shankillblue1 349 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 It seems a stab vest is needed these days at Ibrox.I suspect a cabal of Murray, smith and mccoist.. All with vested interests to remove Charles.An act of taigery. If proves to be the case, we should hound them all out.Biggest mistake Charles made was bringing sniff into the boardroom and his forced removal will come back to haunt us. Lie well now has clear field to do what he may with us and have us disadvantaged and demonised at every turn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 A man like green would only resign if his position was untenable but I think we will have to wait to find the reason - speculating only - the board had lost faith in him either because thee is something dodgy with white Or list faith in his handling of the club ( or some combination) but to me the positive out of this is we have a club being run by a board on behalf of shareholders and no single dictating owner ( like david Murray. ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't run a business then? This is fuck all about losing faith and all about vested interested. An unholy cabal of Murray, sixth and mccoist. A better trio of apologists you are ever likely to meet. All to fuckin coincidental. murray is an egotistical delusional wank who wanted Charles out in a boardroom struggle. Charles castigates team performances, backroom staff to go, whyte raises his ugly head, the mhedia frenzy kicks off again, Charles goes. have we not learned anything? In such times one closes ranks, but then again we are neither a team off the park nor on it. We will reap what we have sown and a further demise awaited. Demonised and disadvantaged at every turn. As for share value? Say fuckin cheerio, lie well will see to that and it will take further institutional investment from private sources to prop us up.

HeHaw 513 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I personally think it was number of collective minor issues that has put a strain on the board members, CG, the club and Ally. I think the main reason was due to the share price droping. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's blue he's white 717 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Green made stupid mistakes with insensitive comments, I would expect a CEO to know better when addressing the media and representing our club. However, I do not expect his position to become untenable as a result of this. IMO he done more good than harm and defended us like no other...I am genuinely concerned the 'power' of the boardroom and job for the boys mentality possibily evident within our club. Perhaps the board are aware of historical dealings we are not as yet and that is the reason? Tbh I'm not that bothered to find out the real reasons why, I'm deeply bothered tho that the next appointment of the CEO is the correct one. This is one of the most important times in our history IMO. The candidate does not need to be a 'rangers man'. Rather a business man Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

callumbo87 209 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 The board have a duty to the shareholders. Green was all over the papers with various daming stories (still to be proven). However it had brought the Share price down drastically. The last thing they wanted was investors getting anxious and a run on the club. So I personally think they pushed him out to try and stabilise the club and appease any anxious shareholders. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyc06 6,916 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Have to say it was interesting to hear from Malcolm Murray for the first time in months!

IMO it is no coincidence that the mud slinging came about at the same time as most of tje "we need good Rangers men in charge" crowd appeared on here.This stinks to the heavens of a coup.

jimmy millar 107 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 There was obviously real disharmony in the boardroom.A few weeks ago we had the attempted removal of the chairman.Last week there was the move to axe McDowall and Durrant.It wouldn`t surprise me if the sacking of Sandaza was far from unanimous.The departure of Yeats and Neil Murray,obviously over Ally`s head.The whole carry on about shafting Whyte.Pakigate etc.,Sorry bears big Chuck had to go,and whilst I admired his blunt approach,we need to remember the dignity and tradition of our great club.I`m surprised some are having a pop at Walter on here.The hammer of the bheasts,Rangers through and through.Could be sunning himself,but still trying to do what`s best for Rangers.Ally might not be the best manager we`ve ever had,but I`d trust him over Chuck 365 days a year.Onward and upward.I look forward to some giants joining the board.GSTQ.
