No need for your petition now Filthy. Pete's answered all your points even before you have sent it. :D


Yeah, it's as if the club read the letter anyway as he responded to every point raised.

Not the most satisfying response in the world, a lot of waffle and a corporate friendly response, but thought Antoni did a great job with the questions.

If the only thing that comes out of this is that the club become more aware of concerns and respond in this way then I'd be happy. Like I said in the other thread, would love a quarterly update from Pete like this as it does help to calm a few concerns.

Still don't think Neilson is the right man for the job, and from Pete's choice of words, it sounds like Neilson has weeks rather than months and that Pete isn't afraid to wield the axe if needed.

I should also probably add, I’m not a fan of the petition idea, but I’ve got a platform to say my bit, so perhaps that’s why

I had platform heels in the 70s 8-) (possibly still knocking around in the attic).
Oh and yeah....listen to the whole PW interview. "If it doesn't work we may have to do something about it"

Sorry but the moment you openly ask a man to sack a manager is the moment I can’t sign this.

I don’t like particularly want Neilson around here if this all carries on in the same manner but literally asking a man to sack someone in a letter is a bit ott. Tweets and discussions etc are different. That’s a bit formal and the wrong way to go. In my opinion.


This - Let's not the human element of this be forgotten, it's a man's livelihood you're wanting to take apart here. It's not your mortgage on the line or whatever bills he's paying, let his manager decide when the time's up.

Also, it's just a game.

I sent two emails to Andy Cullen at the weekend, too be fair he replied straight away, gave what I would call a politician answer, didn't expect anything else.
On the PW interview tonight, seems PW is stressed to the max and Neilson is on borrowed time, never seen this kind of disconscent before here, all very sad.

Think yourselves lucky that you support a club like this when you see the news coming out of Ibrox tonight.

Think most Bears would be more than happy to have Nielson as manager, or any manager for that matter.

McInnes has turned it down.

Filthy, can you write an open letter to Dave King imploring them to take Neilson as the next Rangers manager?

We get shot of him and Gers can continue to lambast 5-5-0. It's a win-win situation. :D

EDIT TO ADD: well done, Filthy. I didn't agree with all of your points, but you wanted answers, got off your arse, made an effort and for the most part you got them.
