Buzz 306 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 My worry is that the tims are in power in all the relevant places (media etc,.) to spout their concerted web of vice.“History is a set of lies agreed upon.” ― Napoleon BonaparteBut to your credit, every lie and deceit from them has been met with a wall of truth.Well if that is true, then it is up to us to oust them. The Club cannot publicly be seen to cry over things like this, it would be deemed paranoid.That job must be taken on by the fans, and indeed, one mans blog I'd recommend for you who is doing a similar job to this is The Man The Bheasts Can't Tame.

Sparkle 54,599 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I complained to the BBC a couple of week ago about the way BBC Scotland had used and published skewed stats on football attendances. (Basically only using Rangers cup attendance figures to bring down our average, all other teams figures based on league only). I also suggested that all reports about Rangers seemed to have negative headlines or terminology.Still awaiting a reply.I have noticed a distinct lack of Rangers reporting on the website recently - couldn't even find the report about the spurious ASA complaint being thrown out. If we had lost that decision it would have been headline news.BBC UK probably aren't even aware of all this going on in one of their 'regions'. It looks like someone up here is airing his own anti Rangers agenda through his employer who happens to be the national broadcaster. In my opinion. Allegedly.

We ARE the biggest club, yet we have a small voice. I just wish we were more critical/vocal in what is happening to Scottish Football.It's disgusting we have no say in how our country's football is to change, but we still, and should on an official level, have our opinion.The (official) Rangers soapbox is often bereft of footing, Buzz.

gmcf 35,409 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Brilliant result for the bear whose tenacity brought about this result. I would ask however, what the fuck was our PR department doing all this time to allow the BBC to get away with misrepresenting and blatantly lying about our club. As Mr Prior has stated in the interview today, our board members are getting remunerated way above their levels of achievements, so it would seem that our PR department are getting salaries for sitting on their arses doing fuck all to stop the vicious and malicious campaign of the Scottish media against our club over the last 2 years. They should be absolutely ashamed that it took an ordinary bear to bring this to a head.Great post. Bloggers and fans do a great job for this club but there are certain issues where it should be fought by the club itself. I hear some are saying there are so many fronts we have battles, and that's true, but as Mather said we have to choose who and where we hit back. Well, when the biggest broadcasting company in the country continually attacks you I can't think of a better one Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in part this is why the SFL's over 21 rule has been scrapped in the merger, as I'm sure we'd have wanted rid of that given our squad size.We have no official vote for now, but I'm led to believe that when the SPFL is pushed through we will have our full membership status once again, complete with voting rights. I would also imagine that we will be the representative from the third tier that sits on the board, though that part is very much an educated guess and nothing more.League reconstruction has maybe been quite beneficial for us in some respects, and I imagine that's why we stayed quiet.

ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Good work, but does none of this ever reach the main BBC HQ? all this proven and continued bias against us can't go un-noticed by them?They covered up child abuse for years and years this will be nothing to them.

The over-21 in my opinion is a sweetener. Balance, and 'intergrity', will not be used. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The over-21 in my opinion is a sweetener. Balance, and 'intergrity', will not be used.I think Hearts are pretty much guaranteed to start with a fifteen point penalty anyway this season. This means they're very likely to get relegated to SFL1 next season, and guess who's going to be in there too...That's probably the main reason they were desperate to push league reconstruction through, so playoffs would be there to enable both us and Hearts to be promoted into the SPL for 2014/15. If Hearts have to newco I'd fully expect them to be sent to Div 3. But alas, I don't think they will. I think they'll head into administration and come out of it. But we're speculating.

RangersFanBase 611 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I don't think I'd of paid that much attention to this story if it was any other media corporation rather than the BBC, there's just something so sweet about the Bias Broadcasting Corporation getting their arses handed to them.Great job!

The Mongoose 1,007 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 An excellent result, it'll be interesting to see if the result is broadcast within Scotland or the whole of the UK. I think we have all seen a turning of the tide over the last six or seven months, each step takes us closer to victory and the truth about who has been pulling the strings in the campaign that is on-going against our club.I would make that C*nt McLaughlin read the Statement out on Behalf of the BBC on the News!!!!.........Just to see his coupon!
