scarkev 3,540 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Can't be arsed wading through eighteen pages but can I assume that someone has pointed out that this postponement has nothing to do with availability of players and everything to do with denying an opportunity to protest before the AGM?Gogzy's idea of a bounce game is a good one but won't happen because it would still provide a platform for protest.McCoist should have told Mather/board : "my team can beat Dunfermline so if you want to cancel because of protest, keep me and my players out of it, thanks"Shameful from all concerned. and you have proof of this do you?According to jim Jeffries the decision was made by ally and he alone....Also to potential date for the rescheduled game is Tuesday November 5th.....which will put out a lot of folk....stupid desicion!

sprotson11 147 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Regardless of the quality of our players, surely we want the best players to be available for every game regardless of the opposition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

smell the glove 55 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Some folk on here need to take a look at themselves.Some comments regading mccoist being a bottler etc are the exact opposite of what he is (and has shown this many times in the past)Rangers should have been making a stand in any case about a game at 5.30 on a Sat, this time inconveniences even more people than those affected by the late call off.As the sensible folk on here realise, the late call off is due to us requiring at least 3 players called up, and, therefore, had to wait for this to happen first.There would be the potential for this game time becoming a more regular occurance for tv and I think tv were testing the water with scheduling our game at this time, so best to tell them where to go with it once we had an excuse to do so.By the way, Ricksen da best; Fernando was a bigger sh$*tbag than the man you are calling one. Quite ironic that.For the rest complaining, get a life (or a bird) on sat evening. Football for 3pm on a sat Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAFKA 545 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I suppose you have proof of this, yes?Remind me when we introduced this "you can't post without proof" rule?Wake up and smell the coffee. Two choices: cancel it and piss off some of the support OR let it go ahead and provide a final opportunity (which the media will love and the investors will hate) for those who change to have their say.Mmmmm?Biggest disappointment is that Ally is complicit - shite manager but always put the fans first up till now.

You clearly don't. We postponed a game a few weeks ago against QOTS because of International call-up's. Nothing to do with the board. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flawless logic.I think you meant "gone" instead of "went" but we'll leave that to one side for the moment.Previous cancellations or postponements are irrelevant - the call-ups gave the board the opportunity to cancel the Dunfermline game when they knew a significant protest was planned.You clearly think it is OK to piss all over the fans like this - I don't.

folkestoneger 8,137 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I know I said yesterday I had posted my final comment on the subject but this needs a reply.I am as pissed off as anybody else about this postponement but frankly the stop the protest story is just bullshit.
