BEARGER

"Members of the RST board met with John Gilligan last night to discuss the role of fan groups going forward, future opportunities for investment in the club and a general update on the situation at Rangers. We had a productive meeting and were reassured that the Rangers board are making steady progress towards their objectives of financial security and on field progress. Main points to emerge from the meeting are as follows: 1) The role of fan groups and fan representation remains at the forefront of the board's agenda and will be progressed over the coming weeks and months. A more robust, democratic and meaningful way for fans to engage with the club should emerge from this process - hopefully including a consolidation of existing and legacy groups. 2) Progress on finance and investment has been slowed as the board wait to appoint Dave King. An investment plan will be available prior to the sale of season tickets. 3) Dealing with legacy issues from the old regime has taken up a great deal of time and remains ongoing. Some legalities around these issues have prevented the board from updating fans as regularly as they would have wished but they remain committed to giving fans as much information as they can. They would ask for patience in the meantime and that fans trust that they are doing what is best for the club - something which has not often been the case in the past few years. 4) There will be an opportunity for fans and fan groups to invest in the club in the future and to play an active role in restoring our club to its pre-eminent position in Scottish football. We thank John for his time and remain enthused at the club's prospects under the new board. We will continue to engage with them regularly and update our members accordingly."

Name dropper! Could be he just didn't tell you.

L Incoming!!!!!!!

The Tommy Sheridan H over Fear rally had nothing to do with the Republican Band. Just a coincidence that they passed the square at that time. And no I'm not a pal of TS or share his views, I see what he's up to with his vote SNP at GE stance.

We sang that in the 60s.

Don't know if that is aimed at me or not, but just for clarity it makes no difference to me if the guy is a MP or not. This comment was made years ago, I'm sure all of us have used the F..... Word a few times in the past.

I'm a socialist who this time voted SNP. I don't believe that all the Rangers fans who voted the same way are brainwashed.

I'm a RST member and find this pathetic. The guy made a comment before the Scot. Gov. brought in their new law. It was years ago and the guy has since apologised. Are the RST going after all who in the past used the term ****** ? Did the RST go after john Reid or George Galloway for singing songs in support of the IRA ?

Same kind of setup as Sandy E. He was on club board.

In the event of King receiving a knock back from the authorities is it not obvious that he will chair the club board and attend all company board meetings?

They are looking at every way they can to give him the thumbs down.

Hehaw to do with the SFA.

Like Scottish Unionist Party ?

They are 16th out of 18 in Bundesliga, could be their planning for the drop!

Most fans of the wee diddy clubs come out with that stuff.

Rangers must be thinking of very low prices for tickets for the play offs surely? After all DK encouraged fans not to buy ST's in the first place. Would be unfair for ST holders to get free entrance and others pay full price.

I cannot see the board charging full price for our home games.

Well said the board.

Very rarely beats a man and usually hits the first defender with attempted cross.

McCoist could not help being the worst manager in my lifetime and probably the worst in the clubs history. But he can do some good now by not bleeding the club dry. He was given a huge salary and penny shares to tow the party line, he knew what he was doing and for who.

We should have bought their whole team 3 years ago instead of McCoist signings. Now for the Premier League? think we need better.

Seems a bit complicated. Asking fans to wait around for a couple of hours seems to me a bad move. But all the best to them.

McCoist is a parasite, a Rangers legend? Don't think so.
