Faircity 186 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 RANGERS’ interim chief executive Craig Mather insists the Ibrox outfit will never forget those who tried to damage the club. Craig Mather praised fans for sticking by the Rangers in the Third Division Mather has also vowed the Gers will hit back against their detractors, but only when the time is right. He told fans at the NARSA convention in San Francisco: “There will be times when you want us to tackle our enemies and it will seem like we’re somehow reluctant to do so or that we don’t care. You might believe we don’t feel hurt to the same extent as you, but we do. “Sometimes you have to wait. We’ve chosen and we will continually choose the right moment to strike. “Please, never believe that I or any other directors don’t know the names of the people who have tried to damage this club. We know them all. “We know what each one’s tried to do and I can assure you we will never, ever forget about that.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehost 11,061 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 They have made a pretty poor job of it thus far. So I remain more than a little unconvinced that they will say boo to a goose. Be more than delighted to be proved wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainofIndustry 921 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Yes, Mather & Smith are so well aware of our enemies' identity, they plan to strike back hard by accepting an invitation to join SPL2.That will really show them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basing ur criticism on unfounded rumours - Lets say the Sfa and spl are cash strapped (fucked) and need us back ASAP -and we make our conditions for doing so that Regam and Doncaster get the heave hoe and we get a full vote ? And all transfer restrictions lifted immediately and an apology - is that worth it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie 2 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Let's hope Mather does as he says and uses that ace up his sleeve when the time is right. I believe patience and waiting for the right time is the correct approach, hopefully his information and any evidence is 100% water tight, I'd love to see a few people get their just reward for trying to shaft us.

CaptainofIndustry 921 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 How do you know this?Honestly, he says what we've all been wanting him to say and people are still getting angry about it.He hasn't said what I want him to say, he's just given a couple of soundbites which we heard ad nauseum from SDM, Whyte & Green. I'm sick to fucking death hearing RFC chiefs' feeble excuses for doing nothing.If he'd said there are journalists who have continually sneered at us for years, such as Spiers and Cosgrove, and they're banned from Ibrox for life as of today, that would be saying something meaningful.How about it, Mr Mather?

Copland bear 7,966 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Bluepeter, the answer is simply no. A guy sleeps with your wife then says sorry. So that makes everything okay. Sorry m8, an eye for an eye, make sure all these Mickey Mouse clubs know never and I mean never cross us again, once that is in place go after our real enemies within the sfa. From the sfa, sfl tip the Internet supporters and any enemy of my club can go and fuck themselves. We stand strong, demand fair payment per game we have on sky or espn, if they refuse then tell them straight we will not be on tv more than any spl 2 club or any club in our division. Take what we are due and don'tlet them rob us ever again. If they refuse, then refuse to play live on sky or espn as that will fuck their deal up, if they don't like it then see you in court. We do that and Ibrox will be a sell out every second week. Don't say we know this we know that, talk is cheap. They need th tv deal so so bad and I would be quite prepared as a shareholder and season ticket holder to relinquish any small payments we get to keep the spl clubs afloat.

trueblueal 2,117 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Mather playing to the gallery to try and win the fans overWish he'd get on and do it rather than just blowing smoke up our ass. Yep I've heard it all over the years I've followed Rangers from supercasinos to new stadia, extra tier on the govan, bidding for Ronaldo, 100m turnover, Dallas Cowboys and leaving for England. I'd just like some realistic ideas and honesty. Have ambition without shouting about it like a politician with a manifesto he'll never have to implement. I get why Mather spoke and I don't lump him in with the above examples but I hope he's more measured in future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is there any prrof what so ever to show that this club will be invited to a SPL 2 further more where is the prrof that there will be a SPL 2. Jumping on bandwagons of bloggers or media who can only speculate on what might happen. SPL will not happen so there is no reason to be invited.

cushynumber 25,178 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I suppose we will have to wait and see whether this is just rhetoric to keep the fans happy or if there is any substance in it. I dont see what all the cloak and degger stuff is for though. Why not come out and start naming some names. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the Original plan put to the Sfl clubs the one the Raith Rovers chairmen said was bullying them in to accepting it.So why would it not be the case.I'm against it as i want the SPL clubs to suffer more.

Not a veiled threat which those media tossers etc just laugh at. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, actions do speak louder than words, and I think a lot of people are wary with JT's rather hollow threats at the rest of Scottish mhedia having a go at us, and so I hope we do more than bare our teeth.
