Well done to the support again today.
You must protest regardless.
You must protest regardless.
The board have another thing coming if they think we are just going slowly forget about this and just move on.The club are bargaining on it all going away and that people will get over it. That's why there's radio silence about it. Plus if we get deeper into the Europa they'll think along those lines even more.
Who is saying the cancellation penalty is £3m?Is pulling out the friendly and potientially facing a £3m penalty for doing so going to do claw back any credibility on the board's part ?
I don't see how it does.
This. The board have said it’s a great time to use 8 days to travel to Aus. In those 8 days they’ll have to adjust to an 11 hour time difference and play 2 games in 4 of those 8 days.One thing that nobody has mentioned, forget all the other shit, I dont want the team travelling to australia mid season. Even if we do have a long break. Training camp somewhere warm, but not that far.
If that's the first thing that pops into your head when listing the many reasons this friendly should get canned, then I'm glad you said "of old" because shït like that belongs in the past.Bowing to catholics is not the Rangers way of old. The board see this as easy money and are taking it. Shameful. Robertson going to ground is an act of a coward or someone who wants this to blow over.
Well they will see the change in where this 'traditional fan' spends his cash.Unless something happens on the Aussie side of things, I can't see this not happening. Us so-called "traditional fans" will be seen by the board as unwilling to accept the change in commercial direction of the club. I mean for godsake, they completely ignore the needs of ample disability seating in the stadium but will happily add new corporate seating at the drop of a hat.
They will have another 3 weeks after that to go on a family holiday and readjust to GMT time.This. The board have said it’s a great time to use 8 days to travel to Aus. In those 8 days they’ll have to adjust to an 11 hour time difference and play 2 games in 4 of those 8 days.
who we are playing is obviously the biggest issue, but the travelling and time is another reason, for me. as someone who has done that particular journey a lot, its not very easy to just adjustThey will have another 3 weeks after that to go on a family holiday and readjust to GMT time.
The travelling distance isn't an issue, who we are playing is.
It’s crazy isn’t it?all this when the fans and team should be pulling in one direction for the run in.The protests will only get worse after today’s showing.
If our board arent actively trying to pull out of this farce then they are far worse than we realise.
There should be banners at every game saying this, let it be seen far and wide.I'm all for it. Blame the club. They are the ones who have organised a friendly with a club who have covered up child sex abuse for 50 years
Correct and the sooner they announce it is off the better before the protests derail our hunt for trophies.They have far less credibility if they keep saying nothing and go ahead with this farce.

It really is time for us to go nuclear on that mob and dis-associate ourselves as far as possible from them.There should be banners at every game saying this, let it be seen far and wide.
Why did you buy tickets I'd you're so against it mate?I've bought tickets for this but I am desperately hoping to hear it has been cancelled and I can get my money back.
Write it off as a mistake and draw a line under the whole sorry mess.
Why this is still being considered by the club is baffling. Especially when Spotlight are about to release the name of another paedophile linked to Celtic very soon.Article should be sent to Australian mp who questioned this match taking place.
That angle is a non starter.who we are playing is obviously the biggest issue, but the travelling and time is another reason, for me. as someone who has done that particular journey a lot, its not very easy to just adjust
Spot on, and this is what concerns me most of all.Bisgrove is not a Rangers fan but surely when he took this idiotic proposal to the board the Rangers supporters on the board should have knocked it on the head. Now we face trying to extricate ourselves from an entire avoidable situation. Board showing a serious disconnect to the fans if they ever thought this was a good idea.
What do Biowave or Bitchie actually do?

Silence isn’t always a sign of inaction.Here we are battling it out for the title in our 150th year and yet so much of the focus is on this shit show of a match that is 8 months away. Wtf were the board thinking of? Even if we win the league we are never going to accept this and if we don't pull out the protests are only going to increase. At a time when we should all be focusing on the league and the 150th we have this hanging over us like a running sore, and still silence from those at the top. Shame on them.
I was hoping, by now, the club would’ve came out and addressed the supporters concerns. I also hoped the ticketing problems would’ve been sorted, but alas no. the whole thing is a riot and a bit of a downer. The stadium is a 80,000 seater and barely any bear is onboard. Supporters will be rattling about in a nothing of an atmosphereWhy did you buy tickets I'd you're so against it mate?
billy boys .... non stopWonder what the protest will be at the Celtic game on 3rd April
Worldwide audience, perfect situation for chants and banners
What’s your thoughts on the friendly? Know it’s been years since you’ve missed a game, you against it?billy boys .... non stop
yesWhat’s your thoughts on the friendly? Know it’s been years since you’ve missed a game, you against it?
Be a sore one for guys like you having to miss it, any other opponent and there would’ve been thousands wanting to go

He's a yes man and suits the Boards objectives up there with Martin Bain for his ineptitude.Totally unacceptable that our "MD" has not uttered a single word on this.
He cannot survive this.
I have a few reasons for my objection ...Be a sore one for guys like you having to miss it, any other opponent and there would’ve been thousands wanting to go
Id suggest a sit down protest on Edmiston Drive well before the game in protest at the carbon emissions this trip will generate. Police go easy on these type of protests. Also no room for the handwringers on here to greet like weans.Wonder what the protest will be at the Celtic game on 3rd April

The regular Rangers (Aurora) and Celtic pub (Cheers) in Sydney are on opposite sides of Central.There must surely be some security concerns around potential crowd trouble. 80,000 fans travelling on planes trains and automobiles screams trouble.
If our future success is reliant on whoring ourselves out for 3 million quid for this pish then Bisgrove, Roberson and Ross Wilson should be out a job as of now.The Rangers board are between a rock and a hard place here. We were cast into the wilderness for 4 years. During that time Celtic were gifted 12 domestic trophies and free access to Europe. While we were grubbing around the countryside, they were raking in revenue and filling up their biscuit tin.
The game is dominated by money., and results are directly tied to that.
We make demands on the board that are results focused.
I'm guessing the ''under pressure'' board did not expect a bad reaction from joining a lucrative kickabout in OZ.
They know better now, for the future. We have made our point.
There's a long way to catch up moneywise, and building a team from scratch without the benefits of sustained continuity has been painful.
I don't know of any club that could have come back from the dead like we have, with no help, and in the face of deep and malicious meddling by others.
Now we need to get behind the team, this year (almost) more than ever.
It's a pill, I know, but there will be penaties to pay for breaking the contract, better we go and smash them on aggregate.
