This rag along with others has been at it for years ffs. Don't buy it,dont click on any links to it and drive this piece of shit into the ground financially. Until this rag is no longer published they will continue to print pish on a daily/weekly basis plain and simple. The vast majority don't buy that rag and are not surprised with the complete bullshit they print, we as a support have and continue to do our part. It's over to the board to defend the club as is their fucking duty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its as if news management is a dark art to the club, rather than a necessary evil in these days of brand protection and deliberate attack from the clubs enemies. It's the most henious crimes they are trying to attach our name to aswell. I agree the board should be coming out and slamming the press and the politicians/leading figures in Scottish football for dragging their heels. We got hung out to dry for much less regarding the tax carry on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theiconicman 2,991 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 This inquiry is limited to processes and procedures in place. Therefore it won't find what wasn't recorded at the time. Edit: That in itself will be interesting to see what comes from Celtic, but I suspect they will hide behind the veil of 'it wisnae us it was the boys club'. Make no mistake there is zero appetite to publicly recognise the appalling failures at their organisation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As such the onslaught continues and will continue ad nauseum until someone who really "loves" the club stands up and is prepared to be counted. This was the hope that we (well some of us) had invested in Rangers First and subsequently Club 1872, based on "This community will also ensure Rangers supporters’ reputation and interests are promoted, defended and upheld in the media and across all other communication channels" We were partakers of the same hope that this supporters representative would speak and act on our behalf to ensure that the good name of the club was never again dragged through same mire as before. It seems to me that they are more interested in buying up shares that they themselves will benefit from together with deciding who gets to sit in the directors box at he next home game.

For a start the Rangers link seems to be purely on an isolated accusation that was reported to police. No charges came from that accusation, it was dismissed. Why aren't they then demanding to know what accusations are they claiming that sick cunt got involved with whilst at Rangers. They may well be demanding to know, the editors are happy to publish shite and will ignore any questions. We may get a wee apology in page 25 up in the top corner. The agenda is clear, they want our club tarnished and will stop at nothing to do so. If there ends up being a full independent enquiry then the club they appear to be trying to protect will be the club with most skeletons in the cupboard.

The EFA are holding an inquiry because the allegations are new and require an investigation. The SFA have known for decades that scum fc harbours pedophiles hence no need to any enquiries just a review of what is known as the "open secret" But your right it'll just stay where it is in history if they bastards get their way.

Its disgusting how deep this goes wihin that club. Also curious that Partick arent mentioned in todays Rebel, even though there is evidence of abuse there too.

graeme_4 34,536 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 It's actually a disgrace they way we are being 'associated' with some of the stuff that's being reported - through images, inuendo or loose language. If I was the board I'd be coming out with some strongly worded statements, and slap lawyers letters on the desks of both the papers and the individuals who write the articles. Board are filled with shitebags though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partick aren't big news, they probably have small youth set up. Not sure if years ago Rangers had a lot of affiliated clubs before the days of most folk driving etc and thats whats holding them back? I really don't know. It's a worry for myself mate, as for any parent whos kids play football, my son plays for a local team and the coaches who run it are fantastic with the boys and do a lot for their development both at football and in life skills. That brings me onto another point, his wee team are at the stage of some of them going pro-youth (some with both Rangers and them amongst others like Morton,Killie and S.Mirren) and we had a meeting and the manager said that if need be he could pick the phone up and contact other clubs across Scotland as he knew people at most clubs. After McCafferty left the bheggars i'm sure hibs knew exactly the character they were getting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now unless he was actually accused of any of this while he was at Rangers, then they have written a falsehood and we should pull them up on it. Club1872, earn the money given to you by thousands of faithful fans and make a fucking statement about this at the very least. Use some of that "project" money to hire a lwayer and fight these cunts. No ifs,buts or maybes and it's only what right minded people would like. We want this shite stopped fuckin yesterday. Maybe dig deep for a lawyers letter which might be all it takes.

A string of former players have come forward to reveal their ordeals at the hands of child abusers in the professional game,claiming abusers targeted them at Celtic, Rangers, Hibs, Motherwell and Falkirk. Now as I understand it the only abuse at Rangers was a guy making an inappropriate suggestion to a young boy, he was fired and reported to the police, yet for the sake of balance in this bigoted country they have to link Rangers in with the rest of the criminals. The stories will take arms and legs unless we challenge this shite through the courts. The way the record made out these cunts dressed in sheets to scare kids will end up being the KKK. You have to wonder where this will end if the board keep ignoring this type of association shite. As far as we are aware,Neely got a fuckin pasting from the kids Policeman Dad so that fucked him being charged instead of just being sacked by Souness and Smith who did the right and proper thing and this cunt was never near any kids again.
