Yes. It's about communication with fans and they put it behind a pay wall where only certain fans can access. 

I see your point but rather than referring to it as a pay wall, isn't the Rangers website precisely what most fans want - a platform for communication between club and the wider support.  It's certainly where I go to avoid media bollocks

As always, John speaks well but, aside from a few valid points, the interview lacks substance in other areas.

 

However, that's to be expected in an in-house production so I won't be getting overly upset about it.

Having the interview on the RFC site/YouTube channel is different from expecting people to pay for it via RTV.

 

Thankfully that error (deliberate or otherwise) was quickly addressed so best we concentrate on the actual content now.

Part 2

There may be some limitations on what can be said in such a forum but the accounts will provide more detail, up to a point. Having been a little underwhelmed with a lack of detail in part 1, that continued in terms of the financials (as expected), but it was useful to refute some of the rumours on the American “investors”, and it was useful to reiterate some of the broader investments that are eating up a lot of cash.

 

I’d prefer more info and more regular communication so Hoping this is a start as without it, nature abhors a vacuum.

It is but it was initially only available to RTV subscribers  - not all fans subscribe to RTV.

 

Now open to all to view / listen and will listen to it when I get home!

It was as much as I would ever expect ahead of an AGM. It will no doubt attract criticism but I think this interview was an excellent and timely gesture from Bennett and was conducted to send one message - they accept that communication has been poor and needs to improve. But don't get carried away thinking better communication will in itself cure every problem that comes along.

I think that was probably a mistake rather than any wish to limit who could see the interview.
