- What a mess Rangers seem to be in at the minute.
In todays video we are here to discuss what a mess we have made and why we keep hearing and seeing leaks given to papers and updates fed to papers instead of addressing the fans directly, i think its not good enough and the rangers fans should be treated with more respect and told what is happening, wether rangers know for sure where we are going to play or not an update on whats happening to quiet down and slow down rumours and speculation from running a muck would help and ease the fans rather than slipping stuff to papers to do the work for them. Its not good enough
MY TWITTER !! / cjnovo992 - Sport
Rangers have released a statement finally:
x.com/RangersFC/status/1811430254986002530?t=InbUs-4UAsIiGkqBLKL_Hg&s=19
The silence about whats going on is deafening
Genuinely
You are spot on mate about communicating with fans. I'm a celtic fan but my step son has a season ticket at ibrox and he is frustrated at the fact he doesn't know where the home games are and will he be more out of pocket if he has to travel to Edinburgh when he stays 15 mins from ibrox
Disgusting behaviour to treat us like this
@@cjnovo992 Thank God in these dark days we have you to get us through to the start of the new season. As Churchill famously said "when you are going through Hell: keep going". Remember when Martin Bain was running the club so professionally? when the club bought great players, sold them on for a big profit, halved the club debt and won league titles.
How we could do with his skills these days. The club seems to be governed by rank amateurs. Ignoring the fans, picking petty fights with the SFA, With League Sponsors, and that is BEFORE we consider the piss poor job of running the team.
Allowing valuable commodities like Morelos, Kent, even Borna and Lundstram leave for nothing. And losing the last 3 league titles by failing to sign a striker in January when we were desperately short of a decent goal threat.
Anyway, We appreciate your enthusiasm, Cheers mate. There is no equal in the CZcams universe than CJNovo.
Any other company in the world where you bought an item ( my season ticket ) and ends up you do not get what you paid for , where you are then not getting information or updates about your purchase and there would be legal repercussions for that company , and the buyer would have every right in pursuing refunds …
It’s my stand , it’s my row of seats they ripped out .. and not one word from Rangers , not one email yet I’ve had over 20 emails about buying new merchandise ! … Nothing short of embarrassing !
👏👏👏
What annoys me is Goldson Ment to be leaving Tav Ment to be leaving all rumours but 1 month later they are still here and we are now in pre season territory with what looks like half a team
Exactly they are losers and spread their mentality throughout the squad for years
Cj mate this has annoyed me what this board has done im from northern Ireland i go to a handful of games but my cousin who is disabled and in a wheelchair who has a season ticket what do rangers want him to do because he only has to walk a few steps and what if the disability access at where we will play wont suit him absolute disgrace mate good vid.
It wouldn't be normal if there wasn't at least one disastrous situation with this board/club. Very important upcoming season and something like this, could mess it up by September again.
For the last while, everything about our club has screamed 'amateur' from the board room, lack of communication, lack of organisation, the farce that is mygers, the inability to have any clear lines of communication with the ticket office, the poor structure and maintanence of the clubs website, drama with kit deals, sponsors and kit manufacturers. It's one shambolic episode after another. It's almost as if it's the old pals act and nobody who works at the club is actually the least bit qualified to do their job. I feel as if we need a total clearout as the rot has well and truly set-in. We need people who know what they're doing to come in swinging the scythe and eradicate this culture of apathy surrounding the club. The hierarchy of the club simply does not befit a football team of the size, stature and standards of Rangers football club.
John Bennett Out
the Board has probably fucked the lg before its kicked off, Bennet has to be sacked.
This close season was our chance to have a total reset on and off the pitch to seriously challenge 24-25 season on all fronts.
Seams like a bad dream.
Hello everyone! Today we look into the lack of communication directly from the board to the fans and ask why papers & journalists are being given updates and scoops yet the fans arent getting told anything
This was recorded shortly before the FAB meetint rangers have tweeted out or i would have mentioned why during this meeting on the 17th of june why were we told everything was fine and on schedule when 3 days later on the 20th of june we confirm theres delays..
Its simply not good enough to treat the fans the way we are being treated
How do you feel?
It's just typical of our club we never get it right cj
Same old from our board. Lots of silence.
Feel like a mug tbh Craig...my local shop is more transparent than the Rangers board...please come home Mr King or some other consortium please invest because this lot are brutal man
Pre-season is when us fans recharge and go into the new season full of hope but no this year,,,this board is nothing short of disgraceful why can't Mr Bennett not talk to the fans about wtf is going on instead or rumours and other shit like it
😂😂😂 don't worry CJ I laugh at you all the time matey 😊 keep up the good work sir 👍.🏆🏆🏆.
I agree with the champions league being a concern as Ibrox atmosphere can help. We've been dog meat in Scotland for years though. 😢
As a supporter for more than 60 years and a season ticket holder for more than 30, I feel that the way supporters have been treated over the last few years has been disgraceful. When we have complained, we have been ignored and the overriding feeling I get is that if you don’t like it, there is a waiting list ready to take your seat. Any other industry we would tell them where to stick it but when it’s in your blood it’s a difficult thing to do. This situation is entirely typical now unfortunately to the way they view the support.
Jelly n ice cream on its way😄😄😄
Typical rangers-No communication with the fans!!
I don't understand how we can't just play at ibrox with the areas been worked on closed off to the fans. Then partial refunds for games missed to the season ticket holders that will miss out
That was my initial thoughts mate it’s a shambles
I think it's because there is a construction crane pitch-side continuing the work so from a safety and logistical point of view there is too much going on inside the ground for the stadium to be usable regulation wise
this is the real question that needs answered, why pay to lay a pitch at Hampden, pay for rent at Hampden or Murrayfield and also pay Queens Park to play at Hampden when they could do exactly what you said, unless the story about the steel being delayed isn't the full truth
@@user-gl3re7vc9c the crane is a mobile crane, plus it doesn't have any steel to lift, it's delayed remember
If the crane is not the problem, then it’s simple ask all the season ticket holders if they would be prepared to miss one game each and rehouse where necessary. This would take you up to Nov 9th. Paper tickets could be sent out to the supporters that are being rehoused and the supporters who have agreed to this scheme could be notified in plenty of time.The only other problem would be the European games. Surely this must be considered as a 3rd option and the cost savings would be enormous.
Nice to see you again CJ best rangers pod on CZcams m8 well done
@@THE-CATALYST-k9l ha not sure about best man but appreciate it!
i know of a guy who pays v32 grand for corprate at Ibrox ,hes had one text from Rangers te;;ing him next to nothing ,no more communication at all ,all fans no matter how much they pay should be respected by Our club , its disgracefull how we are being treated
I read online that we are being linked with Steven Alzate a midfielder who has been advised he may need to under go ankle surgery soon. WTF is wrong with the people running this club? Moaning about sick notes and potentially looking at signing more sicknotes. At a certain point, we have to help ourselves. I hope someone comes in and buys the club. This board is inept. The stadium debacle is an utter shambles as well, and it appears they lied to a fan group about the situation and being on top of it. Hopefully Clement can shape up some sort of team and challenge. This Rangers board like to keep us fans like mushrooms......best kept in the dark. They will tell us the opposite but actions speak louder than words. Thats something the likes of Cantwell and others need to remember ahead of the new season.
Being treated like mushrooms by this board (kept in the dark and fed shit)
I’m a season ticket holder and a (very small) shareholder. I also buy all my merchandise directly from the club.
I’m fkn sick of it 🤬
Agreed buddy! I have recently spent 200 pounds just this season on merch and we are treated like a dumb money tree by the board
@@GRN1872 same here pal. I spent much the same on a recent trip to the shop as well. Criminal the way were kept in the dark
When you talk of lacking the steel. Lets be honest the work being done here is small potatoes. As far as I'm aware its work on one stand to improve disabled access & additional 600 seats. The steel required for a project this size should have be ordered as required. I can grasp a large project having issues with procurement I just don't think this can be classed as that.
This type of crisis needs the Rangers Leader to communicate with the supporters and keeping us up to date with the information. There is no excuse for Bennet to stay quiet
Everyone ready to happy-clap James for yet another season of
" yeah, obviously we're disappointed- but we'll learn "
Bizarre.
Oh well - gotta learn the ( extreme ) hard way sometimes
Absolute shambles. Total disrespect from the board to the fans, especially season ticket holders. Without the fans the club are nothing, very sad.
When was the last time the board had any respect for us fans? I’m appalled at the club and the way it is being run
Dundee supporter and fan of the channel here CJ. Can't help have a wry smile when watching this when all the Dens park pitch malarkey was going on last season we were in exactly the same position with the powers that be telling the fans nothing about what was going on, with the odd comment in the press.
They wanted Dundee deducted points, mmm?
This is totally embarrassing for them, this late on?should be fined and de ducted points, forget de -lays man, get what you pay for.
Great video CJ ......once again we are about to start unprepared on the park and off the park.......The signings we have made so far are not good/experienced enough to challenge Celtic ......The silence from the Board to the fans is inexcusable.......I hate being so negative but the frustration is too much........
We can buy who we like, we're up against too many tainted refs and an SFA run by Liewell, last season we started away on a crap plastic pitch against a team who had already played three competitive cup games, this season we start away to Hearts, another tough start, the SPL is no longer about football, it's about Liewell keeping hold of that £40m CL money.
Another spot on video! Fans always should be kept up to date with the latest from the clubs vs the leaked Bull shyte news, that exaggerates everything. I heard Hampden park will be home games, but I also read ( NOT VERIFIED SOURCE) If Rangers play in 1 Euro game at whatever park, they must remain all games there. Murrayfield, or Hampden. Things can only get better, PC is a solid Manager.
Great vid again CJ, love the honesty and passion, can feel your frustration
As usual the board treat the fan base with utter contempt. Managers, kit deals, MyGers etc etc but this tops it all. Wonder what the next shambolic situation will be next
Liquidation part 2
@@EasyEasyQuadrupleTreblePay The Victims🤫🤫🤫
Totally agree, well said CJ, need more consistent communication.
I hope Dave Kings not just here in Scotland for the Golf I hope he's here to give the board a boot up the arse and intends on helping Bennet with the work he has going on.
If you’re needing Dave King to come to the rescue then you really are in trouble 😂! A club that hates the SFA going cap in hand to the SFA to pull them out of the shite , pure brass neck . Tinpot club .
This is the thing I dont understand, the fans don’t deserve better, it’s a football club we support and love, we have ups and downs, but it’s still the same club, we just need to dig in and support them through thick and thin. We don’t ‘deserve’ anything. We support.
Ieew
If we start with Tav n Goldson in the team the league will be done before we even play at Ibrox.
Aka “the chuckle brothers”
Is this a signal of the lack of competence in boardroom? If they can't project manage a stadium refurbishment how can they build a credible strategy on the park? Shocking.
The thing that gets me is they must have know about the delay before anything started so that being the case they could have bought a bit of land and put a storage unit on it and done the work next year then sold the land and storage unit and as with most land deals would have made a few quid out of it with no disruption to the fans
Yes, delays in material delivery are commonplace and just-in-time delivery is pretty normal. However, Risk Management is a critical element of project planning. One easily identifiable risk, right at the start of a project, is delay. The Rangers team planning this should have identified that risk, and put some kind of mitigation in place i.e. spoke to a Hampden or Murrayfield about this LONG before they have done (or at least what we can see in public). This doesn't show the club's operations in a great light. Very poor.
The thing to remember is Bennett was Parks deputy chairman! He’s been responsible for the awful running of this club for years now ! He is as much responsible for throwing away the legacy of 55 as Park and the awful Robertson
The best pod out there. Another good one from oor CJ.🔴⚪🔵🇬🇧
Hi Craig i don't comment too often nowadays but for crying out loud this bloody board are non existent
As Delia famously said WHERE ARE YOU!!! they're treating the fans like shit and as usual taking everybody as mugs...I so wish Mr King would try and get a consortium together and buy them out...God knows who our manager is feeling its his 1st pre-season and we don't have IBROX or enough new players in place to try and get in the C/L
Kings in Scotland for the Golf so hopefully he's here to help sort things at board level also.
If your idea of moving forward is getting King back, you must be mental.
If we were a customer rather than a fan who won’t move to another team, we wouldn’t be treated so poorly. How can we have a succession of poor men at the top that treat their fans/income so poorly? It’s embarrassing!!
Board have treated us with nothing but contempt for years. Not interested in the fans and highly dubious about wether they care about the club either. Cheap out and embarrass us at every turn. Serious questions need answering.
Well done CJ it's a mess it feels like club is taking the piss out of loyal fans
You’re 100% right mate, we should be making noise on the signing front and all smiles, not worrying about where we will be playing at the start of the season… fans deserve more respect 👍🏻
We went through the same thing, more or less, in the 2017-2018 season at Hearts, Craig. We never got back to Tynecastle Park until December. We were playing at Murrayfield until then. The main difference? Our board kept us informed every step of the way, despite the deserved flak they were getting from supporters. That seems to be the main difference between our scenarios, your board has very poor communication skills in regards to speaking with fans, (ironically the very folk who are paying their wages).
As for your rebuild, the first part has gone really well, a few of the 'old guns' have been moved on and big Phil has brought in a lot of very talented youngsters. Get the next part right in regards to bringing in your new experienced players and you'll be golden.
I agree , better asbestos , better pitch . See you all soon WHEN THE CHAMPIONS COME TO TOWN , HAIL HAIL .
Totally agree CJ, great video
Much appreciated Scott
Nah CJ you’re totally on point mate. It would be nice to be in the loop.
As a Celtic fan I would have to say that the Rangers accounts at the end of the 2024/25 season are going to be a deficit shocker.- especially if Europe is a disaster. Rangers are about to lose MOST profit income from games as they pay for ground rent of borrowed stadium, they'll lose pie sales, etc. This really could be a nail in the coffin of trying to catch us. Unless Rangers lay on free coaches, then your board is forcing travelling expenses on ALL supporters.
I admire your honesty, as always, Nacho. It is an amateurish mess and you are brave enough to admit it. Don't believe the SMSM.
CJ lad it’s an absolute shambles really is only my septic fc pals having a laugh at us again, time after time we give them opportunities to laugh at us.
This must stop get a proper chief executive into our club
Totally agree mate, if any woman put us through as much stress and frustration as rangers have they'd have been shown the door a long time ago 😂
Great video CJ ! Spot on
I've yet to go to a game at Ibrox and was hoping to finally go next season. Might have to wait to the following season at this rate 😂
let the fans know everything,they booed us off the park they must be right...wow 🙉🙈🐵 🍀
Great podcast CJ.
As a Celtic fan living in England its easy to smirk. However I truly want the Scottish game to get stronger. As much as I dislike what your club stands for I actually wish they would sort themselves out so we get back to having the biggest, most passionate fans in the UK
Thier is just a total lack of direction , plan, strategy, or vision . The board and the players are just as in the dark as the fans, and they do this on the back of selling strips and season tickets. I'm not even sure who the chairman is now , its totally ridiculous.
cj treble this year .
I 100% agree with you, we deserve better! We’ve not been shown the respect that we deserve and here’s the proof the fact the board have been telling newspapers instead of us (the fans), We’ve been Mismanaged constantly and it’s just not good enough, Bennet Out!
CJ, we’re not being told, because the club doesn’t know what’s happening yet. To use Hampden we need to pay to relay the pitch (after pink concert) and they can’t guarantee it’ll be ready to play on in time for our first ‘home’ game, and we’ve only been offered Murrayfield for the month of August (because of another concert in Sept). Add to that the fact we’re now looking at Ibrox not being available until early October. They are fkd and don’t have an answer to the problem.
You nailed it CJ "TOTAL LACK OF RESPECT".
When Dave King became Chairman he said that we would not be kept in the dark again over finances or anything else. Sadly since he left we have been kept in the dark over EVERYTHING.
Re the stadium, I get delays etc and their reluctance to say "we will be playing at Ibrox by the XX date, in case of more delays but they could say 'provided there are no more delays we hope to be playing at Ibrox by the XX'.
Now this is a genuine question; what is to stop us using Ibrox with the 3 other stands open?
Yeah sure, those of us who sit in the Copland stand will be pissed off at missing games but I would much rather we play our games at our home than playing at hamdump or on a rugby pitch.
I am completely underwhelmed by our off season. Looks like another season of taking shite from "them" again and again. I am sick of this.
You wouldn’t think a club could honestly be run so badly by so many different chairmen and boards . No wonder our biggest competitor laugh their a** off at us . I have been a season ticket holder over twenty years and every time I think we are disrespected and can’t get any worse , guess what it does 😡😡😡 what about a little bit of communication
I am 64 years old. No stadium. No team. No money. Our rivals with £140m in the bank. This is going to be so bad this year we will need to burn what is left of our stadium to get rid of this board.
Yeah 140 in the bank, but an even worse board.
Thanks for update CJ you have made a response on the situation, more than can be said about RFC who have all the facts “communication, let’s talk about it” “not best in class John Bennet, could do better.
What an absolute shambolic situation we've put ourselves in , it's time to get rid of this numpty clueless board and get Mr king back in , someone who knows what the fans NEED and WANT. I've been a ST holder for 33 years and this lot are about to lose a loyal supporter as I'm totally sick of these idiots. WATP 🇬🇧
Storage? You have a stadium? It would have sat inside. Amateur hour on steroids.
I have a very close source to John Bennet and have been a guest in the directors box. The story’s in the papers is false. If we are going to start believing what is published in the papers then it’s a sad day. The chairman is under incredible pressure. I agree the club haven’t cone out and addressed the matters in hand well but we have to believe the right people are in the right roles. We have been let down by many chairman and have had a lot of men only interested in taking what they can instead of giving back many other chairman would of hired cowboys in to patch jobs to take the pressure of but our chairman has stepped into a role to support the club until the ceo role has been filled. We have to stay strong as fans behind the club and not get carried away with pish been spoken in the papers.
Well said Sir, the club who we all love is showig no respect for the fans who pay good money and we hear nothing, its not good enough from the people in charge
Honestly we are a huge club acting like a tin pot club and it’s been this way for far to long now with his board
@@GHowd7 hard to disagree
Most of the last decade has been well beneath what Rangers is about historically. It has not been good enough. I would like to see a good businessman come in and run the club well and grow us back to what we should be.

Just when you think we’re getting our act together, we shoot ourselves in both feet. 😢
An absolute SHAMBLES from the board. Just tell us what's going on ffs😡🤦♂️
100% correct cj, as per usual
Murray International Metal technology. The irony. 😢
Evening CJ👊🏼
Evening!
The really worrying thing is I think the reason there has been no statement is because they haven’t got any answers for us. They don’t know when it will be finished, they don’t know where we will be playing 😮
I agree mate, we deserve more as fans who spend our hard earned cash on our club whether its a season ticket all the way down to spending 75 quid a top, we should be getting more from the club in terms of information. Great vid as always cj 👏
Rangers can't afford to play games at Ibrox because it's health and safety to keep the fans safe.
Would the fans rather watch other fans being hurt or even killed just to watch our team.
I'm not a good fan because of the way the Rangers has been handled in the past but I've supported them ever since I was a nipper.
I've seen players such as all the great players. Now I wouldn't pay the asking price of a season ticket
We need non rangers fans running/owning the club
It's a bonkers scenario.
CJ bang on as usual. At times I wonder if they are on our side. I keep thinking it’s the Panto Season? Once again we the fans have given our hard earned money over blindly. Not because of who is at the so called helm of our Club. But our Love for THE RANGERS.
Certain building projects don’t order the materials in advance - UNLESS - the cost of delaying the end date outweighs the cost of pre-ordering and storing the materials. In the case of this project, with multi million pound events relying upon the deadline being met, then you absolutely should pre-order, even at some additional expense, and not commit the project beyond the backout point until you are as certain as you can be that you won’t over run. People saying ‘it’s just the way it is’ - either run crap projects or to be fair, maybe work in industries where the cost of over-running isn’t as expensive. It’s not like Edmiston House, or even the Smith Statue, the stadium had a hard window to work in….
Cj, is it buying quantity, rather than quality,
c j it's time the truth was revealed about what the real reasons why this situation has arisen. there seems to be somethin the fans are not told the truth about the real problems
Classless as usual
Starting the season on the back foot.....doesn't bode well
Our board has been woeful since before we got dropped in the shite by Whyte.
No wonder the mhankies are miles ahead of us, how many of their agents are in our boardroom? That's not paranoia but just how it feels.
The Trojan Horse strategy. It's been around for thousands of years but it sure is effective.
Cheers for the video CJ. Construction jobs over run all the time, however if you have a hard completion date then you should have supplies in place or a contingency plan in place before you start work. Any money saved and likely more will now go out the door due to poor planning. Communication is crap, you're spot on there.
CJ I started building a BBQ this morning, building merchant delivered bricks n stuff yesterday, think that’s the way to go.
🤣🤣 you'd think so
A dont think rangers will build a BBQ 😂
You built the bbq rangers hire people to build the stand which they have book in advance can't just phone them up the day before and say we have materials fancy starting work tomorrow as the company would more than likely have other jobs booked in.
@@chris-mc4dg are you for real, this has been planned for ages, my point is do not start without materials.
@@head-Keeper you need to book the construction workers ahead of time that's my point you don't have to book yourself ahead of time.
No money for the steel until the season ticket cash came through and the supplier unsurprisingly wanted close to 100% payment up front ?
Spot on CJ it’s embarrassing to say the least
I completely agree CJ. Fans have been treated disgracefully. Cost of living crisis still and yet supporters will put their hands in their pockets and scrape together the cash for tickets and yet not even get treated with any respect back. Bennett shouldn't be in the boardroom. On and off the pitch, the club has been run shambolically every since we won the league in 2021.
You're no daft CJ, my dug's daft. And i agree, the lack of simple communication is daft. Just tell us what's happening, please...
Ur First and best in class mr Bennett 😢
Just play at Ibrox 3 stands sorry 4 and pay season ticket people cash be cheaper than anywhere else.
Great video CJ.
I need to just put one thing to bed, as I work on major projects in construction, regarding the material delivery and it being commonplace. Whilst this is correct and subject to factors out with most companies control ie shipping and global demand etc the simple fact is that for time critical sporting events with very short windows to deliver, you simply do not start them without that certainty. This is very basic project management, and the fact we have started this work without assurance that it can be done on time is outrageous and it is not the norm.
I don’t know how critical it was that the works were down this summer, but there should have been a hold point before starting and if everything was not certain to be here then it gets postponed for next season. For the amount of steel we are talking about the storage costs would have been fairly minimal in the whole scheme of things.
I’m afraid it does come down to our club, the Client. They cannot blame the construction company, as we need to be all over it and making the correct informed decisions.
So frustrating!
Heart breaking
Could the board do better, of course they can. But we all forget that Rangers is a business as much as its a football club.
There may not be a deal in place to play somewhere yet so there is nothing to tell us to update us on. They are likely keeping negotiations ongoing with the SFA and the SRU.
You wouldn't expect you're bank to release a statement to say that they are negotiating a deal for new branches. They release the information when it is confirmed.
Rangers are in a catch 22. If they tell the fans they are in negotiations with Murrayfield, then the price goes up knowing that Gers have no option.
