Non_Sucumbi 876 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 How will we as fans be able to tell if Walter has actually left the building. What impact will it have in the boardroom or on the field of play?Jul 2013Former Rangers manager Walter Smith has admitted that he is a stop-gap appointment as Rangers chairman, and that he is in the role for his ...BBC Sport-2 hours agoShareRangers chairman Walter Smith is on the brink of quitting his post at the club following days of bitter infighting at Ibrox.

TheBluebells 6,898 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Walter was only on the board to appease us and settle our nerves, while he has no business experience of help to the club at that level it's a little concerning he's leaving just for the reason he was appointed in the first place.More boardroom shit though, just another day as a Rangers fan, yipee Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgoalie 637 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 This is a shambles. Walter is the only one I completely trust.

YorkshireBear 222 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Why are people surprised?? We were pre-warned about this last night.Completely expected.. As much as i love the man for his contributions.. He is not a chairman.. And even he said that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueThunder 8,454 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Regardless of whether he is right for the job or not, Walter is the only person I trust right now. He was obviously brought in to try and unite the fans. If he goes I see even darker times ahead.Whatever happens this current 'civil war' will probably shape the club for a generation.

Londonderry_Bear 111 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Reading all the stuff that's come out in the last few days, Walter is against Green, Green was brought in after a resolution to remove people he brought to the club. So logically I would assume Walter would support Paul Murray/Jim McColl in their attempt to get on the board and then get rid of Green which I see as their end game.If that's the case, why resign? if the papers are to be believed (stop laughing at the back!) then Murray has enough shareholder backing to force this. Surely if the EGM goes ahead and they get on the board Walter would be better staying? None of this seems to make any sense Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
