The uber-staunch stance on everything Rangers is flawed and has been exploited by sp.ivs and their advisors. DB is a good example (but one of many) regards his support for those who fill their suitcases with loot aslong as they wear the club tie and say the right things. Collective objective thought is, or rather would have been sp.iv kryptonite.

Sons of Struth threaten boycott of Mike Ashley’s Sports Direct shops

No-one is above criticism. There would appear to be no easy route or path to a 'better place' and perhaps "clarity" is impossible to impart. This certainly complicates matters and leaves people second guessing but it would appear as that is where we are.........We reached this place partly down to a support in collective slumber. I think for example that the SoS are a fledgling group who saw the neccessity of going down a different route. More in your face public protests and they have done an amazing job in such a short space of time. However, perhaps we should forget the name of the group or individuals involved and look towards what their over-riding mission is and the fact that we need to change our ways and be prepared to get out and do something. Regards a boycott of SD. It's easy to dismiss, why not simply join it............as I said in an earlier post, we could attempt to extend it. -

We associate McMurdo with Fantasy land and for good reason but looking at it coldly, he does what he does for cold and calculated reasons/benefits. Just as those in ongoing executive control of the Omnishambles, do so, producing 'calamity' for their own benefit. -

The Rangers support tends to prefer the more comfortable seat and from there, we'll watch the club fade away. For those plotting or advising on sp.iv strategy, they have played their 'joker' on Rangers because of it and the deep-rooted divisions that some of them helped sow and nuture. -

I think you have to start somewhere when the only language understood is pounds and pence. The Rangers support is vast in number but if most are dismissive then it won't get off the ground, but that would be only too typical of us tbh..........and it ain't helped us any. Rather it makes us a more comfortable target. What about the Newcastle support, they are peeved with Ashely....could we not look to extend any boycott and then look at other issues regards SD and say their employment policies etc. Start-up a social media centre to highlight whatever issues may arise. In todays society, ordinary people are getting a taste of rebelling against those who control and profit from an increasingly lop-sided society. Ashely and the way he runs SD is in some ways representative of this, eg. his employment policy/ 0 hour contracts...........A little vision and attempts could be made to tap into or direct this discontent towards SD. Previously impossible, with social media it can be a different 'battleground'. -

When confronted by a puzzle that has no obvious or straightforward answer, sometimes you may be forced to take a route that may be bumpy and risky. What you can say is that they have been a very important part of an 'awakening' amongst the general Rangers support (not in any group) of how those in and around the board mislead, lie, spin and cream off money from the football club. This has in good part been why the ST numbers are where they are and suggests that it is thousands saying similar, not just me. As Forlan said, time will tell. They are at least fighting for a change in the club's situation, not standing by watching it fade away. --------------------------------------------------------- Can I ask you what your current (realistic & timely) strategy is/would be. -
The hearing today was about CW and the banning order. The wider issues involving more than just CW are still to come.

Quite, I hope he isn't being used as a scapegoat for all. Has SDM been in the station to have a chat ? Just to help piece some of the jigsaw together.

Certainly not at 20p a share.
-
Wrong is wrong, don't mince yir words laddie So they ('buy' and 'sell') are decorative rather than informative ?
-
Thanks for your input. What I was getting at was why a trade should be termed a 'buy' or a 'sell' as per the LSE website. http://www.lse.co.uk/ShareTrades.asp?shareprice=RFC&share=rangers_int On that, is the rational I use in the post you quoted, right or wrong ?
-
Currently about 81M (shares) x 21p which will be about 17M ------------------------------------------------------ edit.: LSE site says 18.33M http://www.lse.co.uk/SharePrice.asp?shareprice=RFC ie. 81.48M x 22.5p
-
The way I understand it there is a bid price (BP)and an ask price (AP). If you have a look at the link you'll see presently the BP is 21p and the AP is 24p. http://www.lse.co.uk/ShareTrades.asp?shareprice=RFC&share=rangers_int If you look at the list of trades below on the same link you'll see a trade this morning at 10:36 in blue (buy) with a price used of 23.025p. ie. closer to the AP and therefore called a "buy". Whereas the large trade for over 4M shares was traded at 20p, closer to the BP and therefore a "sell" and denoted red by the LSE website. That's what my logic is although a Financial Bear might tell me that I am worse than befuddled. CAUTION: don't take the above as gospel until it were confirmed (or otherwise) by expert.
-
I'm not a Financial Trading Bear but simple logic says an announced 'trade' for XXp needs a buyer aswell as a seller. I think that when announced as a 'sell' it has something to do with being traded at or closer to the 'bid' price. FTBs can confirm or otherwise............
-
Waiting for the notice.................. But who will be buying ?? ........and will the notice tell us tha actual ID ?
-
Not many with those amount of shares, so the seller is one of 4 or 5 parties.
-
If they are sold then surely someone has bought.
-
Surely the trade of 4,265,000 shares will have to generate a regulatory notice later today. Over 5% of the share capital.

Fan board elections now closed as of Saturday 20 September

Hearts have got their act together as a football club, both on and off the park and they seem to have strategies in place for both. What is notable is the owership issue which has been addressed and now has the support paying money over time so as to take a very significant role upstairs in the running of their club. That is in direct contrast to our 'OMNISHAMBLES'.....both on and off the park where they think "Strategy" is a place in Norway to go and play a pre-season friendly..............but then that would be forgetting what the sp.ivs are really here for, have their strategy (plus contingencies) in place but aren't for telling us. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Note I think we should lobby so as to have a 'warning' of sorts attached to your posts .................... -

I don't know but do consider the reasons as to why thousands of fans aren't attending Ibrox to be more important. -

Must be slow today as I don't 'get' the PLG reference ! I think you'll find that there are an awful lot more than one choosing not to go to Ibrox. It's mainly because of the way the club has and is being run. Indidividuals are quite free to attend and even fill Ashelys pockets aswell by spending money in the stadium superstore but they should realise that they will be present as they watch the lifeblood of the club sucked out of it. We have reached this point of 'no reasons to be happy' because we had too many blockheads within the support, that laid out the red carpet for the dodgy geezers who have passed through the club and left with castles and the odd chateaux. Too many willing to fall for the Toxic Jack Irvine brand of bullshit or complicit for their own reasons. And as for being on topic, remember Toxic Jack was involved in the putting the fansboard idea together.
