Rangers Chairman's Arrogance Part 2
Posted: Mon Dec 01, 2008 5:01 pm
David Murray's arrogance is matched only by his hypocrisy,he would have us believe that he changed Rangers signing policy to non-sectarian through some sort of moral makeover,his signing of Judas Johnston in 1989,was more to do with rubbing our noses in it,and once again showing he had the financial muscle to win 9 in a row,he was also being monitored be EUFA,and there was a real threat of being banned from European competition,no such threat was evident in Scotland,his friends in the Scottish League and the SFA would not allow that.
If Murray was serious about stopping sectarianism at Ibrox,he would not be employing people who actively and openly display their bigoted agenda on a daily basis,he has a man in the first team dug-out every week who refused to lay out training gear for the same Judas,and who also refused to participate in the minutes applause for Celtic's greatest player "Jimmy Johnstone".
There are far too many other examples of Murray's infantile attitude during his tenure to list here,but some that spring to mind are,the orange strip,the banning of egg Benedict, the banning of green straws and cakes,in fact the banning of anything coloured green,he actually refused to take part in a promotion for Peperroni,because it had a green wrapper,how grown up is that???.
Murray has had an easy ride in Scottish football,ably backed by the lap top loyal,he may have made some improvements,but not through choice,he is still the establishment team,he talks of being proud to be a Scottish club,but his pre-match entertainment is more last night at the proms than Runrig,and one of the things he has never put right,why no apology for the hundred years of bigtry and sectarianism,i remember Willie Waddell saying in 1970,that he had not seen a catholic good enough to pick up the empty cans from the terraces at Ibrox,obviously his telly was broke when the greatest ever World Cup Final was on,any chance of a game mister???,whits yer name son??"Pele" never heard o ye. "To be continued"
