EastEnclosureBear 2,919 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 No chance, maybe for a shitty team like Hibs cause no one gives a fuck but for us, SPFL will see a payday. Make the rules up as they go a long, cunts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 32,526 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Let us (ST) in for nowt but give us an option to donate just to rub their noses on it.This. Great gesture, but I'd happily still give cash to the club.Although I'll have to be honest and caveat this by saying that I won't actually be at the game(s)!

TMB 14,167 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 It's a great gesture. Does it include all those who bought tickets for the last 3 or 4 games? If so, they should've stated this intention earlier as people would've snapped them up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WadeWilson 4,670 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 As a club and a fan base we have given more cash to the lower leagues these past 3years than any %age of our gates. Their usual agenda against us. Never let the truth get in their wayAs I posted on another thread. Rangers have done their bit - they have subsidised lower league clubs (by some clubs' own admission) these past few years and I am guessing many small towns have been grateful for the business that they otherwise would not have got with the influx of the country's biggest fanbase. I thought about the good of Scottish football too, that's what any level-headed fan of the game in this country would want. But we have done our bit for the lower leagues and more. Much, much more. We have ensured a lot of smaller clubs stay afloat. So fuck the SPFL with the play-off money. I would hazard a guess that the 'distribution of wealth' would be top-heavy anyway, like in most businesses in this pyramidically-systemed world. Good on Rangers. There is no argument.

Wearethepeople72 1,845 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Can't see it happening myself.There is too much money in it for the SFA for them to allow something like this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskbankloyal 19,446 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Motherwell have also stated they will let ST holders in free if they are in the play-offs. Will be absolutely mental if the SPFL stick two fingers up to the fans, although wont be surprising. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian 4,281 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 This all went real quiet.im real surprised so many want king to risk the clubs licence to play when they were so vehement it was wrong when they thought Ashley was doing it.I doubt this will happen anyway. Its just a bargaining chip to put the wind up the SFA over Kings FAPP decision. Fans being used again.Then theyll say "where did we say that ?" I wouldn't buy any of this shite until I saw an official announcement. Its just a leak with plausible deniability which may well backfire. If the beaks were rattled by this, theyd know they were going to face it all the time with King and bomb him out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

govanblue 16,847 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I wouldn't have thought so. They bought a four match package not a season ticket.I'm pretty sure the thing they bought is for all intents and purposes, a season ticket.The year before, they called it a quarter season ticket, and it came with all season ticket rights.This year, due to fixture reschedules, it was for less games than usual, but still the same product - a quarter-season ticket - and they'll get a renewal notice on it soon, just like full s/t holders.

one55 1,510 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Would be nice but don't get your hopes up. SFA aren't gonna allow it. They are money grabbing cunts. Maybe if they got a sponsor... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
