simplythebest 11,453 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I still don't see that as suggesting Chris or others are blameless. Because he's not and I've told him that. Thing is I disagree with Chris on a lot of issues but I certainly don't envy the publicity. WadeWilson 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstamomusa 3,809 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm afraid people were talking about Chris' personal life long before he started slagging off this place.Neither are acceptable. That's the point I've made throughout....and that wasn't Ed either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast 9,207 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 ERRRRRThis thread has plenty of remarks about his finances Fek sake what business is that of any fekn random on here....or anywhere?What? Are we reading the same thread?The only quotes relating to finance as far as I can see are those relating to allegedly being paid by the BBC. That's feck all to do with his personal financial position be it good or bad. It's everything to do with being in the employ of the very organisation who have an agenda against the club and the fans.

Frankie 505 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Did you and Furry along with AN Other contact admin ask for admin to be banned?PS Fury had my respect for having the bottle to go on TV and speak so well. However, his disdain and patronising behaviour soon eroded that respect. He really has got a great friend in you though, particularly when he's reading every word.I've not asked for anyone to be banned. It's not my fault if individual users can't follow the rules as well as they can troll other users. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianb1547 3,767 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Frankie, respect to you for how you've been throughout this thread..but I notice that you deflected a few posts ago regarding the banning of a poster. Did you and/or Chris make a complaint that may have led to the banning?Will understand if you prefer not to answer, but at least say you'd prefer not to answer if that's the case.Edit..just seen the above,,,but my question is different. cstamomusa 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 505 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Let's be clear here. You or Fury never contacted RM admin and pushed for ED to be banned?Reason I ask is very simple. You cannot complain about the rival faction using the media to get their message out or silence your faction when you're possibly doing the exact same.I can't speak for Fury but, again, no I've not asked for anyone to be banned. I've genuinely no idea what you're going on about factions and silencing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

familystandloyal 131 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Firstly, thanks to admin for not locking the thread and to everyone who has posted in what has turned out to be a good discussion.I didn't know about Chris 'bad-mouthing' Rangers Media, and so I obviously don't know exactly what he said and when he said it, BUT as an earlier poster said 'If he doesn't like it here, why does he keep popping back in?". By the same token, I also agree that no-one, especially a Rangers fan on a Rangers forum should be subjected to the personal abuse he receives, posts about his business failing etc are out of order imho.I am aware of the Jane Lewis twitter debate, she accused him of appearing on BBC after Rangers banned them, he denied it, if he is getting paid [a reasonable amount] to appear on radio/TV to defend Rangers i personally don't have an issue with it.Re: The 'Green' thread this morning...I've not been on here long enough to know many posters by name but this thread [and many others] just seemed to descend into a farce because of the posts of a very small number of posters, although Chris didn't come accross too well with some of his almost 'goading' responses. He did seem to be attempting to wind people up this morning.On a more general note, one of the reasons I prefer RM to FF is that admins on here don't delete every thread/post and ban every member who doesn't follow the party line BUT by the same token this more 'liberal' approach is open to abuse and many good threads in here get hijacked and side tracked, we don't want it to end up like North Korea/FF on here so we have to self-police to a degree and calm down before we go off on a personal rant.

RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 D'art's a fantastic writer but I know how difficult it can be to speak well on TV and radio. It's not bloody easy that's for sure.As for not being a MD lapdog, I don't think he ever would be but the first time he may share an opinion with MD in the press, that's what he'll be called. It's an 100% given.Public speaking isn't easy thats for sure but if you make that choice you have to be able to take the criticism as well as the plaudits. I think the tone of D'Arts responses would be much more measured whatever he was accused of. My point about the ignore option stands as well as the accusation that Chris is a hypocrite after tweeting about a serene life when not posting on RM. Why was it necessary for him to contribute so smugly to a thread a few hours later?The last question is rhetorical I know you are merely expressing your opinion and not speaking for anyone other than yourself.

loyalfollower 1,543 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Just a regular fan in my opinion. Has a strong view of who he supports in tbe boardroom and rightly defends his tboughts. Just the same as the pro green faction. He gets alot of unjustified insults.
