Blue Heaven 37 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I assumed the 120 days started at the AGM but I fully expect Mr. Wallace to be taking positive action during these 120 days to get our costs under control and present to us a sustainable business model at the end of the 120 day period. I'm also hoping he will spell out his vision for the club going forward for the next few years & how much finance he intends to raise to get us back to challenging in the top tier & getting in to the CL. Look forward to reading the Wallace vision for RANGERS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

willygers4life 1,031 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 During his interview in the paper the other week did GW not say that he was a quarter of the way through and had 90 days left. The 120 days is a good target as it allowing him to still focus on day to day running of the club along with looking at every contract and any other aspect required.

Pure_Quality 3,295 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 No idea if that's aimed at me but I'm hoping we'll see positive, meaningful and constructive outputs from the review.I'm very much hoping we don't see a complete cop-out, i.e. fans groups welcomed back into the fold to front a club membership scheme, a handful of lowly paid employees sacrificed, the management team staying on unchanged and Paul Murray rejoining the board as FD.I just have a nagging feeling that we might see exactly that outcome.I'm sure he wouldn't do anything daft that would destabilise the club. No CEO in his right mind would bin a management team who are, currently, unbeaten in the league and still going for a shot at the premier cup competition in the country.The decision to bin Stockbridge, if indeed Wallace instigated it, has been broadly welcomed so let's hope he continues with that kind of approach.

We have the directors of the company taking less than 600 grand a year (assuming the new FD is on similar money to his predecessor) and 2 of those directors don't even take a salary. People asked for those at the top to lead by example.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in Black, Law, Bell, Templeton, certainly but Cribrari, Foster, Smith? Re-signing Naismith, Mitchel et al then letting them leave or go on loan?Who the fuck is making these decisions?!

Every time anyone tries to stop him (Green, Hart, Stockbridge) they leave the club soon afterwards.That's why I'm increasingly convinced this 120 day review will have no real output, other than some minor tweaks spun as tough action from no-nonsense GW & his trusty sidekick, and will gradually fade into nothing.

As it is we will struggle to finish second and the usual flash mobs will show up to tell us because "eh bored robbed iz". Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
