Bluedell 5,625 Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 The response to Colin Glass's request was pathetic. I'm concerned that ACD's views on another fan can be brushed off easily. What were Frankie's concerns? Why are these questions being hushed up? Why was a meeting scheduled when no directors could attend? Why not reschedule? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,562 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 To be honest the whole thing seems like a mess. Already the club are ignoring it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 5,193 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The response to Colin Glass's request was pathetic. I'm concerned that ACD's views on another fan can be brushed off easily. As you say the reply was akin to having a 'lone gunman' theory despite there being video evidence that has a Brigade's compliment of men armed with automatic weapons. Glass Question It is my belief that the FB needs to publicly propose a vote of “no confidence” in the current Rangers Board. Failure to do so would see the FB being viewed as part of the problem, rather than part of the solution. If the FB does not have the stomach for this, then they should at least formally propose a motion of no confidence in the Club Chairman, whose performance at last week’s AGM was utterly disgraceful, indeed repugnant. RFB answer After discussion it was agreed that RFB’s role is not that of voting no confidence or otherwise but to represent fans overall and not one individual fans request ------------------------------------------------------ That discussion would have been interesting to listen to because I'm sure there would have been RFB input pointing to a large number of fans with similar questions, never mind shareholders who made their thoughts clear on the day of the AGM. However, there must have been more voices or more influential voices lifting up the carpet to sweep the question under. This suggests a reluctance to face-up to reality, an inability to read a situation, a majority in agreement with how board operate, influence coming from the club or a combination of the afore-mentioned. At the same time, I'd have to mention and welcome the statement on the issue of Ibrox/advance notice to secure loan. ------------------------------------------------------------------- 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Bear 0 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 To be honest the whole thing seems like a mess. Already the club are ignoring it. Wryly amused that no response has been received from the Club on the RFB's proposals for improved communication... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 5,193 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) I'm concerned that ACD's views on another fan can be brushed off easily. Regards ACD comment This is an RFB that proposed to organize a communications committee wrt social media They said at the first meeting...." We have a responsibility as the RFB to conduct ourselves as such and using appropriate discretion and judgment" Interestingly enough looking at those minutes from the first meeting, they left the door open to denigrate those who are not 'elected'. “Elected representatives shall not write, send or post any comment on social media or internet forums or the like which a reasonable person would interpret as denigrating any other Elected Representative” After discussion the Motion was agreed subject to adding “ or the Club or supporters body” after the words ‘Elected Representatives. This would be incorporated into the Code of Conduct for RFB Members Minutes from first meeting http://www.rangers.co.uk/images/FansBoard/Minutes/RFB_Minutes_061014.pdf Edited January 21, 2015 by buster. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The board ignores it, a tiny number of fans contact it, and those who do are brushed off. Huzzah! It's another triumph. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,625 Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 FS is certainly one person who is coming out with a lot of credit for raising so many points, although I guess he feels like he's banging his head against the wall. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't do anything about any individual fan's request. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
