Walter Smith called us a new club.
I can't believe this is still a stick to beat people with.
Get this shite so far to fuck. He said nothing of the sort.

It was in the statement released in Walters name when it became clear Greens bid for the club would be accepted.Get this shite so far to fuck. He said nothing of the sort.
Yes, his statement was good today. However, it was reactive,not proactive. We need proactivity.
Weither Traynor wanted to be interviewed or not, he had to. And no doubt, the interviewer would be off his choice.
I’m just not convinced we are getting our moneys worth with him. If he was competent at his job, out PR would be in a much better place than it should be.
We have been savaged in the media for a while now, visible action was required a long time ago. It’s time we controlled the narrative, and I don’t believe Traynor has the passion for it.
When it comes to PR I think the evidence speaks for itself. Why do everyone think we are the bad guys? Because our PR guys allow it.So you’re saying that our entire board are incompetent? They employ him.
Jim Traynor is one of Scotland's most experienced media professionals. He's essential to any strategy we have against anti Rangers bias.
He quit as our Director of Communications while the Green/Ashley regime was expelled. Dave King and T3B brought him back as a contractor with his Level 5 PR company when they took over at Ibrox.I didnt know he was still at the club
I thought the interview was good but I was shocked he was still around Ibrox
Maybe he should have a weekly update on RTV
Keeping us all up to date with the ongoing struggle to correct the media's discrepancies against The Rangers
So are you saying you know more than Dave King?

They don’t force them, they have friendly people in the right places.You posted that a club cant force the media to say nice things, now your saying that mob control the media. Make your mind up mate
You don’t know what he does but because it’s not beamed live on RTV it must be nothing?I would have to say that it's far from clear what he does at the club and a bit more evidence of that would be welcome by the support. Anyone who has held down a full time job,40 hrs PW knows it can be a long drag. Assuming he is full time, there must be a lot of hours to fill in at the club. Weekly updates would be welcome and would perhaps fill in his time a bit more meaningful. He could perhaps generate a weekly phone in on Rangers TV, how about.... Your Call.
I was in Pamplona,and Traynors version is nowhere near the truth.however if the club choose to employ him,and it brings the dispute with the BBC to a conclusion,IN OUR FAVOUR,well I can live with that."They surged in several times clubbing everyone within reach. Although the fans who were spewing their sectarian bile probably deserve a good hiding, innocents would also have been taken out."

BB, you sound like you know what happens behind the scenes here.At the time of shifting out the Rats, the Sleazedales had Toxic Jack Irvine from Media House in their camp. A dirty fighter, if we hired a pussy cat to take them on they would have been eaten alive. I don’t like JT but he is a necessary evil cause he will fight fire with fire. He knows better than anyone what the driving force is behind each hating media outlet. If anyone thinks getting rid of Traynor would change the press approach to Rangers are delusional, it wouldn’t it give them even more free reign.

See if Traynor is too busy fighting off our enemies and fire with fire etc. why doesn't he recognise that they're making the club toxic and he needs a hand? Someone who knows the game and can tackle the one-sided bile? I've had enough of the 'working in the shadows' fairy stories. Let Traynor come out and publicise his good work, where's the downside in him doing that?
Personally I believe our comms folk are very poor - that's going by what's in the public domain, where the real fight is. It's all about public perception.

Stevie G wants Rangers fans leathered. Fkn behave yourselfIs the sectarian bile not what the club are trying to stamp out ? Pretty sure Gerrard thinks those spouting it deserve a good hiding.
Agree 100% with you.What is the general opinion on here of him? Personally i think he is just a total leech and earning money for doing hee haw.
He was part of the press who called us a new club etc then when he got the job he has now he offered a shitey wee apology that i never accepted. I just cant take anything he says about our club sincerely.
Just wondering if it's just me?
Having had a discussion before, the Facts have been laid bare, in so much, The Rangers Fans HAVE the Power too bring Scottish Football to its Knees, if they use it properly. Yes and he Reiterated it Yesterday Re the Scum at Pacific Quay. To achieve a Goal we will also have to Sacrifice an Element of Pain by standing up to our detractors, “WE DO HAVE THE POWER IN OUR HANDS” I agree with him.
Agree with you.The board are not going to let him come out and say things without consulting them first.Worth bearing in mind that the Club engage Traynor’s services to fulfill a role. He does what the Club tell him. The Club set his remit and tell him the message they want to get out. Traynor may, and probably does, make suggestions - but at the end of the day unless the Club authorise him to say something then he can’t, and won’t, say anything at all. He’s the monkey, not the organ grinder.
They employed Pedro and let him spunk millions.
