kplfishtank 4,656 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Have UoF or RST ever commented on the failings of our manager? Be it McLeish, Le Guen or Ally?UOF only came about this year so I would imagine not, as for the trust they've been around for ages and have such a small number of members they are almost insignificant in regards to percentage of fans.

Bears r us 30,798 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Rst members have a common goal- fan involvement in the ownership of RFC.When it comes to footballing things I'm sure, like on forums and social media, people have different ideas on the way things should be. So they can't really come out and say "Ally out".Why can they not say that the manager is not up to the job, yet issue statements about the board, goose and gander comes to mind.

When it comes to footballing things I'm sure, like on forums and social media, people have different ideas on the way things should be. So they can't really come out and say "Ally out".But they can call the CEO's position untenable because that's a key feature of fan involvement in ownership? What a load of pish.

eskbankloyal 19,446 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I've followed our club the length and breadth of this country with an RST board member. I'd say he's reasonably interested in football Nope, just the blazer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mgg 3,766 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Imagine football fans groups not interest in the football. That has to be one of the strangest things I have ever heard, they sound more like a hedge fund to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 UoF,SoS,RST and the rest,what in the actual fuck are you lot doing? Are you only interested in your self inflated egos? Do you only care about getting your own cronies onto the board? Instead of crying about getting dodgy Davie into the club you could actually help us out and be vocal in trying to get the manager out,use your power with the mhedia and come out publicly and say McCoist has to go.But we all know it won't happen.They need to turn up for games to earn the right to moan about ( or support) the manager Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carsons Dog 9,878 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 As I said, their goal is fan involvement / ownership. I imagine they feel the current boardroom set-up is obstructive in their goal.Dave King has stated he is against fan involvement / ownershipWhy do they back him when he doesn't support their raison d'être?

I don't understand why he has such an easy ride at matches because the football under him has never been anything but brutal.The support needs to move away from thinking petitions and statements are going to get anywhere.Direct action through protests is the answer and I don't just mean to get rid of the manager.The club has been treated disgustingly by football clubs, the football authorities, government agencies and politicians, the press and media yet there has been virtually no reaction from our support when we should be united in our thousands to demand a public enquiry and justice for past, present and future Rangers.
