Legends Game

Public sale of tickets for Rangers & AC Milan legends game are on sale. Judging by the online ticket site, the level of interest is pathetic. I don't know how up-to-date the site is but the ticket sales look awful. This is a fundraiser for RFC as well as Milan charity. A chance to see fabulous players from the recent past. £12 a ticket for adults and £6 for kids. What is the matter with our support?

just about to buy 11 tickets for BF1! Are the blue order and union bears gonna be sitting there?

Doesn't look like many of them bought their season ticket during the season ticket holders sale.

I'd hope they go in the enclosure or copland front, up to them I suppose though.

:anguish: Why the inquiry? I'd prefer everything to be fine and see all the proceeds going to the charity but obviously with the situation its actually in the Rangers Charity Foundations interest to help Rangers in this time of need as it means we can carry on helping fund them in future events

An inquiry into the Rangers Charity Foundation has been launched after it revealed the crisis-hit club would receive most of its proceeds from a friendly match.

The Ibrox club are hosting a game between former players of both Rangers and AC Milan later this month.

It had originally been organised to raise funds for the Rangers Charity Foundation, which was going to receive 60% of all money gathered by the game on March 30.

The charity, which has donated more than £2.3m to various causes since it was set up in 2002, has reduced the amount it will take from the game to 10%, meaning the majority of the money raised will go to the club, which is currently in administration.

On Tuesday, the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator confirmed it had been made aware of "concerns" regarding the game after the change to the benefactors.

A spokesman for the regulator said: "We can confirm that we have an ongoing inquiry into the Rangers Charity Foundation. It would therefore not be appropriate to comment further."

Rangers boss Ally McCoist, who is expected to feature for the Rangers side in the game, previously welcomed the move by the charity foundation.

He said: "It is a tremendous gesture by the Rangers Charity Foundation to forego the majority of the proceeds of the legends match to benefit the club and it is going to be an evening of nostalgia for all the fans, players and supporters."

The AC Milan Foundation is also due to receive a percentage of money raised by the friendly, which will see Brian Laudrup and Paul Gascoigne featuring for the Rangers team, while the Italian team will include the likes of Paolo Maldini and Jean-Pierre Papin.

Connal Cochrane, manager of the charity foundation, added: "The club and the Rangers fans have been tremendous to the foundation over the last ten years and now it is our turn to stand alongside them and step up for Rangers. The Rangers Charity Foundation suggested the club should now benefit from the match and we were delighted that the AC Milan Foundation agreed."
