FSM 20,892 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Unless we recruit in some capacity a David Longmuir type who had first hand evidence of these types of goings-on, and would speak out on them, then as much as we are disgusted by them they will remain outwith the MSM.David Longmuir would be viewed as biased (Rangers man) and also bitter (losing his job). Needs someone who has no affinity to the club and doesn't appear to have an axe to grind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefarm 1,055 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Is there any other MD or head of an organisation who signs blanks bits of paper knowing fine well his biggest moneymaker is possibly about to go out of business? If I were to run my business in such a way, I wouldn't be making any cash in the near future. Regan obviously cared not one jot about our club and its future playing football.

CheckMateCharlie 228 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Incompetent? This man who runs our game decided to sign a blank piece of paper, telling those in attendance, no matter the decision, add my signature. A man in charge of our game at a meeting to decide the fate of the biggest club in the land and he leaves 4 hours before everyone else for tea with his Mrs?I wouldn't call it incompetence, I would call it nothing short of a scandal.A scandal or incompetence, it's something we've known for years. He's not fit for the job and further more, he took his wife out on the night of the five way agreement being signed. The thing is, the media couldn't do a thing with this even if they weren't so dead against us. He certainly won't resign over it either. The only thing that will probably roll will be eyes as opposed to heads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtuoso 27,180 Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 This is the smoking gun? We've known that this tit has been utterly incompetent for years. This won't change anything. If anything he'll deny it(probably won't have to as none of the MSM have the balls to ask him).Have to say bit disapointed at all this, it's been simmering for weeks, expected more than Regan is incompetent.,I don't think this is the 'smoking gun' - simply another article that they have released.

SeparateEntityMyArse 54,115 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 FSMWho else was round the tables at these meetings?Largely Rangers haters who voted in favour of 5 way agreements, demoting us, depriving us of a licence etc. None I can see who aren't culpable in some way and who definitely wouldn't speak in our favour now.Longmuir as head of SFL must have some real evidence of corruptness against us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtuoso 27,180 Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Unfortunately for us, this is easy to refute and dismiss as a fan group conspiracy. Not sure how this information came to light, but it would need a high profile (and unbiased) whistleblower to come out in public in order to bring any real weight to this.Any journalist worth his salt would find out if this was true or not in a matter of minutes. VB appear to have an insider and I doubt they would write this if it was nonsense.Regan's position is untenable, the man has to go.The only Rangers friendly person in the media that I can think of that would take this on is Gary Ralston at the DR, but then he'd be upsetting the applecart and would most likely be told / ordered to leave it well alone.All it takes is someone to ask the question: Is this correct Mr Regan?I'm sure that Mr Regan is well aware of the article, whether he comments or not is a different story.

FSM 20,892 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Longmuir as head of SFL must have some real evidence of corruptness against usI'm sure he probably does, but i'm also sure that his confidentiality agreement will prevent him from ever bringing it to light.

CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 How do VB know this? Who told them this information? It must have been from someone upon high who was involved in the meetings to have been involved..I like some VB articles, but without backing up what they say with evidence , we really are just pissing in the wind.Without doubt I'm sure the fine fellows on Vanguard Bears went through this information with a fine tooth comb for it is clear that they would have known the legal risks they were taking by putting such information out on the internet were it not accurate.Frankly his position is untenable.That said, I've never liked the pompous pr*ck so I guess I'm biased.

Bluefarm 1,055 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 The English FA can't help clubs in trouble enough. Compare and contrast the way the FA behave to the shocking behaviour of Regan and corrupt cabal of chairmen? This man signed a blank piece of paper and informed the meeting he was off for tea with his Mrs and to add his signature to whatever if they decided to do with our club. This should be investigated and if true, Regan sacked immediately. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fools Gold 488 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Signed a blank piece of paper on the biggest decision on Scottish Football of all time????Are you fucking kidding me???!!!I hope to fuck that actions can be taken on this; a blatant disregard of his position, and irresponsibility of the highest order.Rangers were thrown to the ravenous wolves that day.

How are we gonna get him to fuck apart from saying oh his position is now untenable? It's been untenable for donkeys now and he's still there.

Him and dungcaster have caused most of the disaray by the way they have handled it and pandered to the faux outrage that other clubs have expressed. Do i think him leaving early to have dinner with his wife on the day the paper was meant to be signed is a hard hitting exclusive? No. Hence the reason i'm disappointed that this article has been building up for weeks for this just to show more incompetence, which isn't gonna change anything.

ianb1547 3,767 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 The VB article 'states as fact' that he left this critical meeting, having signed a blank piece of paper, to go to dinner with his wife and friends.For those who are asking for proof I suggest we wait to see how long it will take for Regan to take the matter to Court for defamation. Surely, the Chief Exec of an organisation must contest such a defamatory slur on his character?Or will he acquiesce by his silence? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
