Anti-protest protest

[nuffieldranger]

I can see both sides of this. Part of me can see why they want to protest, but at the same time, i dont see what benefits we wil get from it? it may force the owners out, which is probably what they want, but then what happens from then could potentially be bad. There are many things that need changing, but i still have faith in the club - and if they come to their senses next year and bring prices down, etc etc - then maybe things will get better for our future. We would probably be at least a division below or not even exist if it wasnt for them - and i still think we will go in the right direction eventually

Totaly agree

Unfortunately the last few years have shown that you would have to be a lunatic to get involved with a football club. There is no grace anymore, Chris Wright was a QPR fan, may still be but unable to come and watch. Mike Gregory is a lifelong Newcastle fan and is loathed by their fans now.
FB has made a lot of mistakes but if he wasn't as arrogant as he is then he would have walked long ago, so what he gets slated for, is the only reason he has put up with it.
I believe his biggest mistake is not finding the right manager, all the other things would fall into place(Price hike, C club etc etc) if he found the man capable of taking us up.
I don't feel sorry for him, as he can look after himself but I do think he deserves a little more respect than he has so far been afforded and whatever anyone says he is quite at liberty to say he saved us from administration because he did indeed save us from administration but until we go back there, some won't be happy.
I just hope he keeps fending off the criticism long enough to fulfill his goal of getting Rangers back in the Premiership.

His biggest mistake was saying we would get to champions league within 4 years

that is absurd

he will get us into the prem and i doubt he will give up without take us there

His biggest mistake was promising a better match day experience and leaving GP responsible for delivering on that promise. He would have done a better job without him and would not have wasted so much money.

I am also a bit occupied with the idea of how spoilt some have been. I feel ashamed of them!!

Look at Portsmouth now. It could have been us.

sorry mate, but i honestly cant see us getting to the prem the way the board are carrying on.

Agree with that..

Also think these protests are results based and cannot see anything happening in the next month at the very least.

the great thing about living in the worlds greatest democracy is having the freedom to voice ones grieviences without the fear of retribution and a gun pointed at your head.....mr briatore n mr paladini are constantly proving themselves 'not fit n proper' to run a football club of any stature.... a protest is the only way the meglomanic briatore will gather the point that 90% of rangers fans no longer want him here despite 'saving' us from doom...............bit like the french not liking us brits who saved them from sprechenen ze deutsche!

Leaders in business, politics, or anything else for that matter will only perform at their best when they are told that they are being watched. It reminds them to think twice before they make a decision, even if they still make a dumb first choice.

Dressing as clowns or wearing a red nose will not damage the club in the slightest, but it will send a message to those who make the decisions. It's a lot better than depriving the club of funds and fans.

No boss likes to look foolish in front of their peers and this is exactly the sort of protest that will get the fans message across.

those who bought season tickets like myself have been shafted !

We do not live in a democracy. It is a mirage. The power of the vote is meaningless as the whole system has been corrupted beyond repair. The real power is in the hands of big business. They control the government and us in reality not to mention the press. Democracy sounds great but sadly doesn't exist outside the bare concept.

there's a theory that says every heated argument will eventually mention the war.........

Good post, agree there.

Not exactly like they'll be running around demolishing everything in-sight.

I disagree because in in the real world, if 2 out of every 10 fans (20%) attending the game go as clowns to protest at the way the club is run, the board will see it as 8 out of 10 (80%) of fans don't think the club is run badly and will not give a damn about the small minority. He has confirmed this by his £20 moan speach.

The singing of songs directed at the board would get the point across more, and more people would join in, which would have a bigger effect. Then the board and their guests would be left in no doubt what the problem was, instead of wondering why a few people have come to watch a game of football with wigs and red noses.
