The Louden Tavern: Ibrox Stadium – Supporters Meeting Saturday at 1pm
BEARGER replied to WATP_Greg's topic in Rangers Chat
What a crock of shit this is IMO. Who are these self appointed guardians of social media behaviour for Rangers fans? A " code of conduct" what nonsense, how would it be implemented? Who would be the judge if the "code of conduct" was broken? What would the punishment be? FF the biggest Rangers Internet forum have obviously decide not to participate. The main group who regularly smear other fans groups do not turn up, no surprise there. Let's be honest there are two groups that constantly attack the other groups and they will continue to do so no matter what. Simple solution if they annoy you is don't go on that forum and block the other on Twitter. This project is a diversion from more important matters we should be putting our time and resources into. -
Aye the queues have been round the stadium for the last week with ticket office open to 8pm each night.

More truly awful football against some better and more fitter teams than previous seasons.

It has been reported on many occasions and different sources that McCoist is on a one year following contract. That being the case it means he starts a new year every day. So they could give him a years notice and save on pay off, but that is very doubtful. If sacked he is due whatever the small print in his contract says, as it's a rolling year contract I would think he will be due one years money.
-
That would not be a "rolling contract". He would be due a years salary if sacked.

MailSport understands the wealthy businessman has been waiting more than a week for a response from chief executive Graham Wallace to an email questioning how many tickets HAD been sold.
-
Why do you continually to spout disingenuous bile on these threads? You are a Rangers fan and you don't know the difference between the Hampden march and today?
-
SOS only has two "members", turn out was exceptional at such short notice.
-
Yes I will be there.
-
Will be there. All should make an attempt to be there, well not the usual naysayers.

It seems that the correct figure is half that.
-
That why posted what I did. This type of meeting only gives oxygen to the weirdos in our support. Look back to the meeting at the Grosvenor Hilton to see what is important to them, they even split up and move to another part of the room during the interval hoping to get selected to speak again.
-
There are two groups on that list that will continue to spread disharmony amongst the support no matter what. This meeting is poorly thought out and Ill advised IMO. We will never get100% unity and it's a waste to time attempting to get it, would make more sense to try and get common ground with the sane 95%.

@SonsofStruth: Sheriff officers have been and I found out it's the same people I upset yesterday. Ah well toddle pip. You guys know the drill
-
No problem. I agree with you, SOS are only making him aware of the strength of feeling amongst the fans. He should be thankful for the information. Notice that the usual suspects are more annoyed about Easedale & Wallace getting emails than the prospect of losing MP and possibly Ibrox.
-
Have you signed it?
-
Certainly looks like it. How about getting these fans to negotiate the next club deal.
-
Think we are at cross purposes here, I did not send 1200 emails to anyone.
-
If you say so, I believe it's posting information.
