Money donated goes to erskine, twaddle and loyalist causes amongst other things, I never knew that the site was paid for by admin, I thought donations would be used for that so kudos to the admin guys for that.

[Bluefarm 1,055]

That isn't what the blurb above the donate button says.

I would be very careful of accusing good Bears of financial mismanagement. You are a fanny, we all know that. However, you're also making a very serious claim here.

I've passed on what you're saying to those you are smearing

Superb mate ,

[Bluefarm 1,055]

Where have I insinuated that?

I'll pass on word for word what you've written.

That's what their donate button says its for. Given the outrage by some posters about possible uses of the RFFF money, there's been plenty "that's no why I donated" posts recently, I'd have thought other groups would have been very clear in where they spent their donations etc.

Superb mate ,

If I recall, it's £100 each per year

Fire on. Tell them I said hi!

I'll pass on your concerns and smears. Talking pish is one thing, smearing and making snide innuendos about financial wrongdoing is another.

Tell them in person and explain why you're insuating wrongdoing. You come across as disturbed.

Asking for the same transparency expected of others is "smearing" and "snide innuendos"? Fair enough. I'll take that to mean anyone asking he same of the club is "smearing" and making "snide innuendos" .

In the real world, when you make accusations against innocent people... .....

You're clearly demented.

I've already offered you to meet the people involved to see what goes where.

[Skelf 1,153]

I have met all admin and believe me they are as trustworthy as they come. Some of these new age fans (the dude) just hate the fact that a Rangers fans site supports the loyalist cause. And I hope you ask the same questions of other sites that you troll.

[D'Artagnan 13,319]

"This site prevails due to the

sterling efforts of volunteers for no

financial gain. If you wish, you

can donate to VB running costs

by clicking the button below"

"All costs are met by admin"

So where does the money donated to their "running costs" go?

Profiteers, blue pound etc etc

Dude you would be better carrying out some research before launching in to issue unedifying smear insinuations.

Indeed it is no surprise that in the past week Vanguard Bears donated £560 to the Twaddell and Woodvale Residents Association; the sum of money being passed over to TWRA by Progressive Unionist Party leader Billy Hutchinson. Vanguard Bears raised the money in empathy with loyalist protestors who have stood defiantly on a daily basis to make their displeasure at the Parades Commission refusal to allow an Orange walk to pass the Ardoyne area of north Belfast. The money is intended to ‘go towards much-needed hot and cold drinks, sandwiches, biscuits, chocolate etc. for the resilient and impervious protesters.’

And if you scroll down their homepage you will see only last month they presented a £600 to the Twaddell Peace Camp.

Seems to me they are doing what it says on the tin - supporting Loyalist causes.

Shame on you.

D'Art...how do they do that type of stuff without selling training gear and tops?

Sterling and selfless committment by their members.

Who deserve better, far better than to be subjected to the kind of underhanded insinuations being muted in this thread.

[Bluefarm 1,055]

I'm using my phone and I'm an absolute thicko with technology. ? I'm sure some can search VB articles and see donations to Erskine hospital etc.

Shame on the Rangers fans hater for his smears.

[Bluefarm 1,055]

I may also add VB members obtained and fitted CCTV systems in the PUL hub on Duke st recently.

Shame on Dude.

What smear insinuations have I made? Is asking for transparency about finances smearing?

What have I insinuated? Is asking for openness smearing? Funny that...

[Loyalist_RFC 222]

If I recall, it's £100 each per year

nearly it's £120 mate

What accusations have I made and against whom?

I've offered you the chance to meet the lads and look through anything you want. You are crossing the line with this nonsense.

Shame on you.
