yup, unfortunately i think its too late. i just think its the natural course of things once the floodgates have opened. moreover, i dont think there's really anyone at rangers who is strong enough to stand up to anyone at the minute. the problem is that anyone with, how shall we phrase it, an alternative agenda, will be more than happy to pick up on and champion even a two-bit hack like mcnee. "Bold pundit speaks truth on sectarianism" etc. "Good on Gerry McNee for finally saying what we know is true about the hidden undercurrent of sectarianism in these songs". pffffft.

almost everyone was for the "hello hello" ban, but i had a funny feeling it would be a slippery slope. once the beaurocracts get a sniff of censorship they've got to take it to extremes.

if i were to rant i would moan about the amount of supporters denying people their basic right to voice their concerns in a peaceful way.

see, this is the weird thing. i was using the forum at this time too and it didn't happen for me. will look into it in more depth as soon as i get a minute though.

it makes sense, but i'm really not sure what the problem is to be honest. its puzzling. if there were lots of people having the same issue it would be easier to investigate. the general trend is: loads of people having same problem = a problem for me to deal with individuals having a problem = problem at their end that i can do nothing for but i'm not convinced in this case because other sites are working ok for you. my only problem is i'm not sure how to analyse it further without actually being there when it happens. i'll have a look into it more fully this afternoon and see if people on other boards of the same type elsewhere are having the same problems. sorry about the hassle.

it does seem quite strange. what do you mean by "the whole board freezes"? is it just gersnet, or your whole computer? does it crash your browser, or just not load? occasionally there are small problems with the server that last a minute or so, and everything returns to normal. could this be it? i'll have a look into it this morning. the next time it happens can you make a note of the time so that i can check the logs? thanks.

what about buying shares? that kind of money could really raise the RST's overall say.

what will be done with the money?

what exactly are you "backing" him to do? he's came out with a load of nice platitudes and resolved absolutely nothing. nothings changed from thursday night other than he's decided to grace us with his presence. we're still the worst rangers team since the 80s, we're still slowly but steadily selling off all our assets, we're still paying the same amount on season ticket money to have nothing invested in the team. so i'm at a loss. you're backing murray to do what exactly? it sure as hell isn't turn things around, because according to him there isn't a problem. so you're "backing" murray to maintain the same dire status quo. good for you, its exactly the same as do nothing at all - its hardly "backing" in the slightest. its like saying "i'm backing that statue not to move" - utterly pointless. but i'll say this -- those of you who have no complaints for murray had better not even begin to complain about the team on here.

you wont get anyone who hates tabloids more than me, man, and i feel guilty for even having looked at it - but in these desperate times i think we tend to just feed our depression by subjecting ourself to reading their guff just to make ourselves feel worse. i think thats what i'm doing anyway.

some of the comments sent in to the record are just so embarrassing: http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/tm_headline=%2Drangers-must-have-a-scottish-boss%2D-i%2Dd-go-for-guus-hiddink%2D-%26method=full%26objectid=18073727%26siteid=66633-name_page.html "it's time to ask Dick Advocaat to return to Ibrox." "If Murray will sack Le Guen I'll drive up from England and chauffeur him to the airport to make sure he leaves the country" "Rangers are so bad they can't even get their games shown on television." "Murray had better sell Rangers quickly if that's what's on his mind because Le Guen's taking the value of the club down on a daily basis" "Demos outside the ground are wrong."

unfortunately all true, and put in a very dignified manner. that being said, i wish he hadnt spoke to the record.

ah right, aye. get you now. agreed.

aye, i always thought he was responsible for the amount of injuries at the time.

i'm an optimist, but it may be in response to stephen smith's comment about how odd it is for the manager, who barely speaks english, to be left to fend for himself.

what do you mean?

i hope plg doesn't quit. i'm not sure why i'm giving him so much support, but i think it'll just be another excuse for murray to stall further - another "give the new manager time" to placate us further untill he finds a buyer.

oh i wish, man, i wish.

sad but true.

you're probably right m8. in some senses its a catch-22. if you go to the games murray continues to assume that everything the vinyard is profitable (i mean, everything in the garden is rosy), but if you dont then you run the risk of being labeled a part time supporter.

i know what you mean, but a half empty stadium, as a symbol of disdain, is powerful. the media will go to town on it, and it will have to be addressed. are there better ways? probably, but even just as a symbol its powerful (albeit tragic).

i dunno man, rangers just break my heart - and no matter how talentless they are they will never be as horrible at their job as that pseudo-literati moron.

no, i think he's just saying we should support murray because its the thing that will piss us off the most right now. garrulous pish.

aye, dont waste yer money.

lads, was thinking of making and handing out bingo cards with all dm's bullshit on it, garnered from the site. feel free to add: Manager needs time Real supporters dont protest We will spend what we have Paiteince new manager We're lucky to have him I have Rangers interests at heart We're in this together The Rangers Family Can't win every game there's going to be a massive injection of money that will shock For every fiver..... manager will get significant funds Rangers must live within their budget. Do the fans want to go back to owing �£60,70,80 million Money has went into youth development and we're seeing the fruits already. hey never complained when I delivered 9-in-a-row investment to shock football to its foundations
