minstral 5,375 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 Can i ask what care Charles Green had for the traditions and culture? Or Imran Ahmad? Or Stockdale or any others?None of them have had care for our traditions and culture, and that includes the people you mention above. But with Green saving our club, and attracting investors, he will do for me. And to be honest, it will not matter who comes into our club, as they are all to scared of the Protestant word, and do not want to use it.

RM Monitor And Standards Officer 112,815 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Pretty sure minstral was complaining the other day that the board is full of Rangers men, and that's bad. Now it's full of people who don't know our history and traditions, assume he's refering to WS.Needs to make his mind up.No businessman we have from now to my death will publicly push our protestant/loyalist links imo.Having been in the company of some of these men at our club, many are happy to indulge at band dances/supporters clubs doos. Some request no cameras as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 11,453 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Correct, Green was going to agree to title stripping, McCoist told him if he did that he'd be strung up.Any proof to go along with talking about this as fact? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 11,453 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 From reading into it Ally had more to do with that than Green. Im pretty certain it was told to Green under no circumstances would Rangers give up any title won previouslyAny of the good Green did seems to get passed onto other folk, like this and Malcolm Murray apparently attracting all the investors.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I think you'll find MM was responsible for securing a lot of the investors.But what the hell, lets carry on creating this legend for CG that he did everything and did it all well.You're one to moan about putting people on a pedestal.

AlBear. 8,499 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Any of the good Green did seems to get passed onto other folk, like this and Malcolm Murray apparently attracting all the investors.Green bought Murray in because of his links to investors in London, and then what? Did everything himself?Green did a lot of good and was exactly what we needed at the time but for some of you CG is taking on a mythical stature.

minstral 5,375 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 Bizarre. More like some are obsessed with the Protestant word.What exactly are you looking for in relation to the Protestant word?We are known all over the world as the Protestant club, so what is our club scared of.

Carsons Army 4,146 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 No businessman we have from now to my death will publicly push our protestant/loyalist links imo.Having been in the company of some of these men at our club, many are happy to indulge at band dances/supporters clubs doos. Some request no cameras as well Therein lies the problem, In the republic of Scotchland it is acceptable and often lauded if you shout from the rooftops that you are a proud and devoted Roman Catholic,Infact, One football club are more than happy to push their Roman Catholic traditions.Try saying that you are a proud and staunch Unionist and Protestant, The reaction will be a little different and in some cases you may even be called a bigot. sadly that is the way we are portrayed in this RC controlled backwater.

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 we've not been in any postition to pick battles for over a year, we've been summarily kicked down and beaten again and again. We needed Green to give us a fighting chance of getting off the floor and raising our standard once again. That is now gone and it will take a very long time before we have half a chance to stand up and take it to them.IMO the board will stay silent taking shit over the years and expect the fans to do so, just as we did under Murray. For me, those days are over, i won't fall into the niche of apology for supporting my team, even if those we expect to run it will. You are what the new breed of Rangers fan should be about mate .Not the apathetic type we had for years under DM .Having said that they sadly still prevail on here and in our support even after 18months of Rangers bashing .Unfortuately you are correct in that our board are going to just pick their moments to peicify us with rhetoric that keeps the dignified boys happy while the ones like you and me that want our club to fight the fight and take it to our enemies like Charles Green just live in hope that our club will grow a set of balls .

thehost 11,061 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Green done more good than bad.
