[govanblue 16,847]

Naw but I put "for govanblue's projects" so that should be yer clue

Excellent! I thought I might have had some trouble raising funds on here for 'Project 67'

I'll make sure Swally gets pride of place in that roll of honour

Yies can arm-wrestle for the privilege

GB, yea I'm for getting him a card, but maybe Playstation/X-box points would be more suitable than a bear.

Looks like he has some time on his hands and could use them. :sad:

On the subject of T-shirts, I'll have a couple of those.

Anyone still doing it/up for it?

Re spending any of the money on Darren Cole I would remind you that most people donated on the understanding that all money spent would go to Rangers and not to the company who makes play station games

Point noted, and it was in my mind.

That was why the RangersMedia Tshirt seemed a good idea to me, as RM get the money back, so we could then maybe reinvest it?

[govanblue 16,847]

doing what/up for what?

and re tshirts, if Badger gets back to me with details on how to get one, I'll make sure I pass the info on to everyone who might want one themselves.

But Badger, like most Admins here has learned the hard way that it's best to put me on ignore

Correct

[bluebear1971 54]

I think the t-shirt is a good idea - wee bit of fun. is there not any other rangers media stuff we could bombard him with like mugs, keyrings etc He would never forget we sponsored him.

I think that's better than using money on something he already has or could buy himself if he wanted.

I also agree that extra money is spent on Rangers - not bothered in what way but would prefer it to go to the club.

Yes, I agree with all of that. I'll ask Badger what (if any) merchandise is available, and see if he can do us a good price

Not sure what he would think of us giving him that lol

Yeah it's the thought that counts.

What were you thinking????

Interesting to note it's in the Category of "Men's Stocking fillers"

again!

Update:

You may have seen the 'free ticket from IanB1547' thread. Well we had 3 applications for it, from 3 long-standing RM members.

Unfortunately we only have 1 ticket, so this means there will be 2 disappointed Bears out there.

Therefore I propose that we buy 2 tickets for the Montrose game (£17 each) for the game out of the Sponsors Fund.

I think this is an appropriate use of the Sponsors' fund money, as the money goes straight back to Rangers, while also helping out 2 RangersMedia members.

How do you all feel about that?

(Please state your opinion below)

[bombaybadboy08 15,660]

I think we have plenty folk donating tickets,if we are paying for people to go to the match I think it should be raffled.

Thats a good idea

But you'll be opening a can of worms surely as it will be VERY popular in the future aswell if you get me

Exactly what I thought.

I'm sure we could write into the constitution that this is a one off.

We have had quite a few suggestions in the 'Let's Spend The Money' thread for using some of the money to buy tickets, or even season tickets, so I think this one-off gesture would appease those who wanted that.

[govanblue 16,847]

Exactly what I thought.

As I said, if we do go ahead with this, the can of worms will be firmly closed immediately afterwards.

[adamtricky 89]

I say buy the 2 tickets for the Montrose game , let the two folk enjoy a day out at Ibrox , plus the money goes back into the club anyway. Win Win situation.

you could get the members who go to the game to do a match report .

[govanblue 16,847]

OK, so that's 1 yes, 1 no, and 1 maybe.

- actually 2 yeses if I'm allowed a vote

So I really need some more input from more members to establish a clear leader one way or the other.

[DaddySpook 168]

I say yes because the money is going back to Rangers but I do see the can of worms thing and it would really have to be closed after this.No harm in buying a ticket and raffiling it off but not just buying people tickets.

[frewbear 1]

Buy the tickets.

[Bears r us 30,794]

I am happy with buying two tickets, for this game only. So yes from me.

[govanblue 16,847]

OK, so the Yeses are currently in the lead (with the proviso that this is a one-off)

But it's not yet a large enough turnout for me to carry the motion, so if you haven't voiced your opinion yet, please do.
