Blue72 1,238 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 RANGERS fans’ chief Drew Roberton insists the Ibrox support is as unified as it’s ever been – and won’t stop protesting until the current board are overthrown.Walter Smith admitted this week he’s never seen protests like the ones he witnessed at Somerset Park on Sunday when Gers fans made their feelings known live on TV about what they think of the hierarchy at their club.In the past, they’ve been guilty of being fractious and split on most issues at Rangers. But now, Roberton is adamant all fans are unanimous in their views that major changes must take place at the agm on October 24.There is a movement – initiated by billionaire Jim McColl and businessman Paul Murray – to oust chief executive Craig Mather, finance director Brian Stockbridge and board member Bryan Smart.Judging by the banners unfurled during the 2-0 victory over Ayr at the weekend, the supporters have made their minds up as well.Roberton, spokesman for the Rangers Supporters’ Association, believes it’s the first time in decades fans have been united in their stance. And he warned the boardroom’s current incumbents their mood isn’t about to change any time soon.He told Record Sport: “The feeling among the fans is very clear. They want change and the protests won’t let up until they get it. The strength of feeling among the support and continued protests have actually surprised me.“Over the years, Rangers fans have generally been angry today and over it tomorrow. But now the fans have the bit between their teeth. These protests will not go away between now and the agm, at the very least.“They want certain people out. And the best way to do that is to make it known to shareholders they are unhappy with the board.“In all my years watching Rangers I’ve never known as many fans to be united on one particular subject.“They made their feelings clear at Ayr. No matter how they try to dress it up, the figures in the annual accounts – considering the money brought in – just don’t look good. I think that will continue until the likes of Mather and Stockbridge are out the door.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much if a percentage of the support is 200 fans. Hardly a unified majority I'll wager. The rebels are getting desperate now the board has outflanked them.

Another fans chief who nobody had previously heard of. Hope Mather points out that these guys have ideas above their station. The old "doesn't speak for me" cliché is very apt here.

simon 1,773 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I really wish these groups would stop pretending to speak for the fans. Their speaking for themselves, that's it. And they give the rest of use level headed (sometimes) fans a bad name. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

j1mgg 3,766 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I am sorry but the protests at the game were not a majority and I could only see three banners, there was also booing when they tries to sing sack the board.There also wasn't many people joining in where I was in the corner next to where the Ayr fans were caged in.
