So in your opinion, why can't the club ask the same, direct, pertinent questions? What protocol is preventing them offering a robust and searching statement on RIFC headed paper? (btw I'm not criticising the boards courage, more their strategy).
It's the same issue. We are not talking about the diplomacy required for sensitive geopolitical negotiations.
Apart from avoiding fines, and the fact that it will probably be ignored, what does this current strategy achieve?
Wait, you want me to answer you then tell me what I can and cant say to do it? How does that work?
Your answer is very, very simple. Other than only not being ignored for as long as it takes to issue a fine, what would the club achieve through calling everyone out?
The answer is 'nothing at all'
By using a friendly outlet to ask questions you cannot, the media cannot now write Rangers' complaints off as bitterness or simple hatred of celtic. By timing the statements one after the other, the media cannot now mention one without mentioning the other, and by so doing, asking the questions in a public manner.
Unfortunately we operate in the real world and that involves not just stamping your feet and shouting louder and louder until someone tells you what you want to hear.
I have no idea if this strategy will work at all, no idea. I know that yet another Rangers statement that says all the right things to get FF screaming 'BOOM, HEADSHOT' will achieve exactly what it has done to date. Not a single thing.
