  1. GERSNET - Mock Online AGM - Cast Your Votes Now Right lads, Gersnet are having an online vote and you don't even have to be a member.........get your Yes to Brian Stockbridge votes flooding in now P&Ds!!! www.gersnet.co204-mock-online-agm-cast-your-vote-now?.uk/index.php/latest-news/
  2. It would indeed be interesting to see how the two No.8s would justify his new-found acceptance and respect for the bus boyz. His original statement was that he would 'walk away' if the Easdales were to gain a significant say in the running of the clone rangers.
  3. I think the Loyal need to start planning their next protests....... Show the red card to ANOTHER liquidation Rangers fans say no to NEW Newco
  4. Shamelessly stolen from the Ayr United thread......one of their messages to the Sevconians yesterday..........
  5. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ On reflection, shouldn't the above posts be moved to the "Let's all Laugh at the Rangers" Thread
  6. Also, the new bar and museum in the ramshackle building they bought with the IPO money.........speaking of IPO promises............the ringfenced £10m warchest and £5.1m worth of stadium repairs/improvements. (tho they do have the wifi!!!!!!)
  7. We must conclude that Spivco can't really be that strapped for cash....... Sept-Dec = quarter x 50% of £825k = another £100,000+ (and employer additional costs) oot the door needlessly and nobody is giving a feck!
  8. Where's oor Tedi?........ Rangers manager Ally McCoist has disclosed that the club has not yet allowed him to reduce his £825,000 annual salary, in spite of the fact that, as far back as September, he voluntarily offered to accept a 50 per cent pay cut, writes Ewing Grahame. McCoist has made it clear to the Ibrox hierarchy that he is willing to agree to that cut – with the proviso that his wages will return to normal should Rangers continue their progress to the top tier – but the current board has so far refused to accept his offer. At a time when cost-cutting measures are required, the 51-year-old has been left puzzled by the directors’ failure to welcome such a major saving and is hoping that the reason is simply a logistical problem arising from the resignation of former chief executive Craig Mathers and 
his subsequent replacement by Graham Wallace. When asked whether his terms had been reduced, McCoist replied: “Not yet. We have met on two or three occasions. “My advisor met the previous chief exec and we more or less agreed terms but, as yet, nothing has happened. I’m very hopeful that’s just down to the changeover because nothing has changed on my part. We feel it’s the right thing to do, we want to do it and wewill do it – hopefully, sooner rather than later. “I would hope that the [original] agreement we had, we could just continue with but it [the chief executive role] has been changed over. “I appreciate that might move the goalposts a wee bit – but, hopefully, not too much that it would prevent it happening.” Rangers’ financial director, Brian Stockbridge, has arranged a meeting with McCoist this week, at which the wage cut is expected to be addressed. http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/spfl-lower-divisions/rangers-ally-mccoist-still-waiting-for-pay-cut-1-3224697
  9. As I've previously pointed out, fat Sal: effectively put the final nail in the coffin of Rangers 1872 by virtue of getting punted straight out of Europe and into financial meltdown has taken the second highest amount of personal loot oot o Ibroke since the formation of the clone Rangers (eclipsed only by Chuckie himself) is pledged to the spivs n gangsters as he's said he'll be voting along with the current Spivco Board with his 1p shares (hardly an impartial voice then to be telling fans what they should and shouldn't think) still talks about strengthening the squad when it's no secret the rangers are in soapy-bubble Sunk the original incarnation, and is making sterling efforts to do the same for the International!
  10. AWTTW didn't last long then! I'm losing track.....do we now say AWRA/BP/AWTTW/???????/????? when the next one pops-up?
  11. Tee hee hee - the 'open warfare' continues: OPEN LETTER FROM CHAIRMAN AS a listed company, the members of the Rangers Board have to be very careful and professional in the way in which we communicate information. This is clearly not the case for the requisitioners, who can make all sorts of wild and spurious allegations. My concern is that these unprofessional, wild allegations are being used just like bogey men were used when I was a child. But in this case, they are being used to frighten our supporters and shareholders. So, within the bounds of what I can say, I would like to put some of these bogey men to rest. Firstly, I read wild accusations that I may not be independent. This is usually accompanied by a list of names from the club’s past. Let me say categorically, that until I joined the Board a mere 4 weeks ago yesterday, I had never heard of Charles Green, Imran Ahmad, Craig Whyte, or any of the other characters in Rangers’ history. To my knowledge, I have never met them, nor had business dealings with them. Nor would I recognise them if I passed them on a street. When I was approached to join the Board, the Company had only two directors and the immediate priority was to preserve the AIM Listing. Surely it is naïve to think that there is any way the Nominated Adviser could have allowed anyone not totally independent to take on this position at that time? I have now read over two years of board minutes and they make very depressing reading in terms of the scale of their lack of professionalism and worse. The minutes make it clear, in my mind, that the boards of recent years have been totally unfit to run this club. The mystery to me is why people should now be considering that members of these boards, which presided over the problems we face today, should be considered for re-election. Although I have learned one lesson, which is that if you shout long enough and loud enough in the media, you may be able to reinvent yourself. Recent inaccurate and, in fact, completely untrue allegations have included a new bogey man about Jack Irvine's contract. I have looked at this and can say that he has a normal contract, with no bonuses attached and the figures quoted by Mr Scott Murdoch are utter nonsense. Let me also say that Graham Wallace and I are beginning a complete review of every contract that is in place. You can imagine that this is going to take weeks and then more time where contracts need to be changed. I have been on board four weeks yesterday and Graham less than that, but we have already begun this critical process. One area, where we are conscious that we need to focus, is in improving our communication and engagement with all Rangers supporters. We have already commenced work to identify what is required to fully engage with our fan base and we will be bringing forward some significant proposals in the near future. The Board is fully behind improving the communication and engagement with the fans. Another bogey man relates to the club's finances. We have said publicly a number of times that any talk of the club going into administration is completely untrue. Yes, we will need to make decisions to improve cash flows and strengthen the business, but these will be the right decisions at the right time. Another new bogey man thrown about by the Gang of Four is the suggestion that we might be thinking of selling Ibrox. We are not thinking about this. Where do the requisitioners get these ideas from? I promise you we have no intention of a sale. Brian Stockbridge suffers most from the lies thrown around by the people in the process of reinventing themselves. Even the requisitoners must understand that finance directors are members of boards and their actions are largely dictated by the board. Reading the minutes of the last two years or more, I see that Mr Murray was involved at board level for long periods covering contract and financial negotiations. It is not that Finance Directors make mistakes, rather that boards make mistakes, or worse. Without Brian, the club would, in my opinion, have been de-listed months ago and ironically the club should owe him a debt of gratitude for holding things together. Going forward, his new CEO, Graham Wallace, needs time to evaluate the whole structure within the business and the people within it. This will be true for Brian as for everyone else. For the good of the club, for the good of the supporters and for the good of the shareholders, I sincerely hope that the shareholders will get behind the existing board and vote for us. In addition, I encourage shareholders to vote against the four requisitioners. Firstly, because some of them were members or chairman of boards which failed this club in the past. Secondly, we need a Board selected from the best available people. Not just from fanatics who put their own personal interest ahead of the greater good of the club. If these people were to join the board they would be taking up positions which should be held in future by the best, professional people with Rangers true best interests at heart and not having their involvement driven by their own personal self interest. Best regards, David Somers
  12. I heartily congratulate Super Salary for his sterling contributions towards taking the new clumpany to the brink - he deserves a World Record pay rise and a few more bodies in to help push them over the edge.
  13. Make that 4 - "Ceremony" et al have a new wee pal called "furryboots" today - no wonder they can claim big attendances at Ibroke with all these wee Orcs springing up
  14. Polterfud spends a hellava lot more time on this thread than you do - ya part-time mere contributor - pah
  15. Not forgetting Ceremony's good 'friend' raitherover above!!! The Orcs are pure beelin the day
  16. True - I have to admit that on OrcMedja, I'm fully behind the existing Spivco Board.......my rationale is that if they stay-in at AGM then the potless wannabees will just keep on sniping until the whole toxic mess goes tats-up again
  17. I'm being neutral and supporting 'the spivs' - that seems to cover both sides anyway
  18. I've been asking for the past two weeks about what even happened to the action that everyone's favourite "p*ki friend" was taking with the support of Sir Charles of Normandy. If he's even partly successful that should make an interesting dent in the million quid they claimed they had left. Great, smashing, super
  19. It seems the wannabee spivs feel they're taking on god-like qualities......."We wanted to put down some simple commandments........" What happened to the "Thou shalt not covet thy neebur's orange tap?" one?!?!
  20. I see that nobody has yet come across that plot that bennett lost last week - poor lad.
  21. But maybe the Orcs will buy them a new floaty one with a roulette table on the reverse side -
  22. I watched the whole game too - to be fair the Sevco aren't that bad. Sally seems desparate to sign Kenny Miller back tho which would be hugely entertaining for the Sevco haters.
