Glasgow Rangers: Fans react to news of Peter Lawwell’s rousing speech
Glasgow Rangers will still be licking their wounds from their defeat at the Emergency General Meeting on Tuesday.
The Ibrox outfit had been pushing for an investigation into the SPFL, the sport’s governing body in Scotland, following allegations of corruption – the Gers even provided a 200-page dossier which they believe was full with proof to back up those claims.
In the end, though, just 12 other clubs backed their proposal, with 27 others believing there is no need for a probe into the authority – two abstained from voting at all. As such, there will be no investigation at the moment – it remains to be seen whether the Gers take the matter further.
Should Rangers continue their fight for an investigation?
Yes
No
Before the vote, there was a meeting involving the clubs voting, and Peter Lawwell was said to have given a rousing speech in an attempt to convince the clubs to vote against the proposal. As you can imagine, this has piqued the attention of plenty of the Gers fans, and they have taken to Twitter to share their thoughts. You can see some of the best comments from the social media platform below.
Desperate stuff now, thebiggest conspiracy theorists & victim card players in the world of football & here they trying desperately to protect the SPFL, I wonder why

Lawwell making a speech to go against an investigation, this whole thing gets worse by the day 😂
Doncaster: ‘Master, the clubs aren’t listening to me and want an investigation, can you talk to them?’
