Still waiting so will chase it upHas anyone who emailed Club1872 over the matter received a response yet? I’ve been waiting 11 days now....
Missed your response somehow Greg. Apologies.
Thanks for addressing my post and advice noted.
Edit: You'll be pleased to note that PS is not for turning. I'm sure you'll hear from him soon. The good thing (that this season has shown us) is that capacity changes can be implemented any time DURING the season.... ala hivs.
Keep up the good work Sir.
Aberdoom and Heart's did it in previous mid-seasons, now Hivs at the end of this season. So all being fair Rangers can do any time during the coming season, giving proper notice to the scum.
Same for me mate. Grim.dont really know enough about it, but as many I have signed up but this make's grim reading
I will continue to commit my monthly payment , but will take in to consideration who I vote for to be on the board when the time comes for re -election maybe a clear out of the currently elected is needed or maybe not it is up to us to change it democratically if we so wish, not by cancelling and slating the current board members.
Just my opinion
Same for me mate. Grim.
I have just cancelled my £18.72 per month, and will buy shares on my own now.
You are failing to protect our Club's future then by doing so.
25%+1% leaves the supporters with complete control over the future of Ibrox and Auchenhowie.
Not supporting Club 1872 will leave us forever vulnerable to:
Losing our stadium
Renaming our stadium
Spiv control of our stadium
Speculative development of Ibrox.
Etc.
But unfortunately your giving up on all that because of a bit of bitching between directors?
That's a shame mate.
It has been a bit of a joke since day 1 to be honest, forever mitred in some form of scandal or controversy.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but your son does an excellent job of getting his point across and defining his remit and you jumping in to defend him at every opportunity takes away from that, in my opinion.o
Why don't you tell everyone your alternative story as you are IN the Know ?

I like Chris Graham but as the op asserts that he is being paid by the club to do the day to day work of Club1872, do you not feel that the independance of the org is now in question? He was not elected to do so.I find it astonishing so many verbally assualt the board and scream for investment but refuse to take personal responsibility and use club1872 as a vehicle to invest and protect the club. Who gives a flying %^*& if you don’t like the board. Change it from within and stop being a coward like so many on this thread.
As for Chris Graham, club1872 needs his expertise. I’d contract him full time if necessary. This is a guy who put himself front and center as the supporters public face against Spiers and English and I’d imagine suffered significantly for his efforts. Both threats against his family and professionally. And some fucks have a problem with club1872 employing his services? Fucking bellends.
We have arguably the greatest and loyal support in world football, our attendances are unprecedented over the last few years through the divisions.
But we are miles behind hearts and others taking responsibility for our clubs corporate well being. Stop fucking moaning, join and make a difference.
Iv'e had numerous communications with Iain(the op) and also had meetings with him and can assure you he put 100% effort into his duties for club1872 and all that despite the man suffering a serious ongoing health issue which is part of the reason he has had to resign.Of course not, who gives a %^*&. We need someone with that skill set to support club1872 ambitions. The absolute last thing I’m concerned about is engaging Chris Graham to do the work, in fact I’d promote it for a number of reasons. Anyone who has a problem with this needs to really look hard in the mirror.
The queen in the OP threw his toys out the park and didn’t highlight this because he’s really morally outraged, it’s because he’s bitter about the departure and knew this would be a way to hurt those remaining and club1872.
I would employ Chris Graham by Club 1872 as well.
I would trust him 100% to have the best interests of the support.
I don't care where the money comes from, be it the Club or be it the C1872 coffers. I'm utterly convinced it would have no bearing whatsoever on his performance.
I agree that the OP was mischief making by throwing that detail in his post.
Also, I would suggest that @ID10 would make an excellent director. You should seriously consider it Sir, you and @Papasmurf
Your Club Needs You!
Lads.... remove the insults out of the thread eh? Please?
Also leave the SLO out of this thread please.
Oh aye. Imagine wanting our club and 2nd biggest shareholder for the fans to be honest.The bitterness is oozing out you. Let it go

I will continue to pay my £10 a month because I believe in the process
I am also giving real thought to standing for election, this isn’t definite just something I am considering
I don’t see point bitching, so maybe try & help
Just a loose thought at this minute however
Point 1 why should c1872 need CG to work for them?This whole C1872 situation isn’t good.
1. The board of C1872 should be very clear about who is working for them or anyone being paid by the club to work for C1872.
2. We need people to step up for election rather than sniping on FF or Social Media
3. It’s a contradiction to be independent of RFC yet have representation on the board of RFC
4. We need to consider proper remuneration for Directors of C1872. People are giving up far too much personal time and deserve to be paid.
5. In addition to this we need to appoint at least 1, maybe 2 full time people for admin, communication and recruitment.
C1872 has a fantastic base to build on. We can get to 25k members with a clear strategy and proper communication.
Point 1 why should c1872 need CG to work for them?
Point 5 does c1872 not already have a paid emplyeee ?
One other point, a C1872 representative on the board doesn’t need to be someone who is a director, or even member of C1872. It should be someone of sufficient expertise and knowledge to contribute to the development of the club, but also represent the interests of the shareholder (C1872)
Do you have a son? would you defend him against Lies ?Don’t take this the wrong way, but your son does an excellent job of getting his point across and defining his remit and you jumping in to defend him at every opportunity takes away from that, in my opinion.
The Club have people in place to deal with they matters, it is not normal for directors of any company to deal direct with these issuesI think we genuinely need a new board member with the title Supporters Director with the reemit to represent the membership of C1872, but actually more than that, represent every supporter whether they are a paying member of C1872 or not. The more successful the Supporters Director can be on everyone's behalf, hopefully then C1872 membership will grow on the back of that success.
That Supporters Director doesn't need to attend every board meeting and be privy to all commercial or financial sensitive information, but those board meetings where supporters needs and hopes can be addressed, disabled fans needs, ticket matters, Travel Club, RSC issues and a plethora other supporters issues.
Obviously if C1872 ever reach the 25%+1 then full board representation would be needed.
What % of shares does Club1872 currently hold?
You have every right to defend your son but not as far as his job is concerned.Do you have a son? would you defend him against Lies ?
He is a lot cleverer than me, but it is a natural instinct as a parent and I hope I never feel any differentYou have every right to defend your son but not as far as his job is concerned.
He is more than capable of doing that himself.

Pathetic all these keyboard hardmen and hide and seek championsYou're no that daft mate.
Don't bite.

Someone should either be a director, with all of the roles and responsibilities, or they should not be a director at all.
The work you are describing is surely appropriate to the Supporters Liaison Officer.
Greg works for the club bud, i'm talking of an independent Supporters Director or whatever you wish to call him or her.
Or just wind them upBest ignored mate.
