Here are some of the points raised at a Q&A session with the supporters club- Re: Charles Green Perth Q&A For the record, the attendants tonight were as follows:- Jim Hannah Charles Green Ian Ferguson Stuart Munro Alan McKenzie (who helped with the travel arrangements) The Perth RSC Committee Around 200 Perth RSC members Right, as far as I can remember it went like this.... 1. Sponsorship deal and new kit maker pretty much signed up TODAY, holding off for announcement as the sponsors and kit makers obviously want a big impact statement and not some leaked pish 2. Rangers BUYING back the Arsenal shares and also going to play Arsenal in a pre-season friendly (which will probably cover the costs anyway) 3. Rangers to play Linfield in a friendly soon (Linfield can cancel a league game) as a thank you for when they helped us out 4. Stadium will be renamed, 2 potential sponsors, once the winner is confirmed the fans will have a chance to get involved in the renaming, which will obviously have to include the name Ibrox. The sponsors do not want to be involved in a scheme that may ALIENATE the fans/customers so they have agreed to work with the fans. 5. Green is still taking players like Allan McGregor etc to court to sue for breach of contract 6. Naismith actually signed for West Ham before switching to Everton 7. McCoist still has his backing, he said that any man who has endured what McCoist has over the past year deserves loyalty, what the future plans involve is perhaps getting some better people around McCoist, I read it as meaning some better backroom staff 8. Rangers media is going to go full throttle, new APPS for phones allowing you to watch games for £1 etc and the radio phone in to talk direct with Green and McCoist etc 9. We bought back the Albion Car Park for £1.4m after Murray sold it to Lloyds for £400,000. Apparently we can make around £400,000 per year on it (or was it £150k?), we had a lease with Lloys which would have meant giving them around £4m until the end of the lease, but Green persuaded them as he threatened to ask the fans to boycott 10. The cross league thing was discussed in depth, with the legal precendent of the Dutch and Belgium womans league setting the example. The club are actively persuing this to try and get to England.
So Charles Green has wasted thousands of pounds to travel to the other end of the planet to talk to 200 ****s in Perth Australia, now its going to cost another fortune to get to the part of Australia that actually has **** living in it. Maybe I'm missing something but what is the purpose of this?
Nothing like threatening a boycott when an organisation makes a legitimate business decision you don't happen to agree with
