You can even get TLM to endorse your deal as the best we could have got. Why would he donate four pence to the Club? even the RST and SOS arent donating a penny of their profits in shirt sales to the Club. Theyre buying shares for themselves which is not a donation in any shape or form. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a red/black striped football shirt with the legend "We Are Not AC Milan, We Are Just Unhappy With Our Sports Retailer" would be popular ? Or  maybe I could sell Craig Whyte and Chuckles Green dolls after the trial is over, and wee boxes of pins to go. Could prove popular.  Any other suggestions ? Wow! Such swift delivery! Thank you Tannerall Sports Immediately. The quality of your merchandise was only matched by the superb, high quality customer service. This item is possibly the best product I have ever bought and will no doubt buy more of these excellently crafted garments. Would I recommend Tannerall Sports Immediately? Hell, yeah! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mgg 3,766 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Basically you can sell what you want at any mark up you want to rangers fans and nothing bad can be said against you as long as you purchase something from the club with the profits. It will be a field day for ticket selling on eBay the next time we play the Tim's at home, as the person just need to pay his ST with the profits.

Basically to me it seems like the unofficial sellers claim to give profits to the club - what they leave out is whether the "donations" are by purchasing themselves goods such as DVD's & kits and tickets etc from the club, or else in the case of SOS apparently purchasing themselves shares with the money they fleece off Bears and trying to claim that is donating the profits to the club, rather than 'donate' which they claim. If true that's a farce and deserve to be shunned for lying in my opinion It's fleecing money off bears (to make that group stronger) by pretending to fans 'the purchase is going to make the club stronger' -> the purchases only appear to make their group stronger not the club -- if the share buying called donations is true (as in made their group stronger by purchasing more shares). I feel like putting in an FOI request to our great club, to see if SOS (or unofficial sellers who claim to donate to the club) have ever even gave them a donation.. or if it was in fact purchasing shares off the club and pretending to fans it's a donation because if so that's a massive lie and fraud. I doubt the club have given SOS the club's bank account details, to send the club the donations Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would much rather you bought their shit than walked by and went to the megastore and spent your cash there. If they didn't they wouldn't be stood outside selling their stuff. If we're going to greet about fake merch should we not greet about the stuff that doesn't even pretend to be putting something back in too? Glad you included 'pretend to put something back in'.   Purely from a personal observation, I always felt the wee punter outside the ground, whether selling CDs, scarfs or even ra speeeeeeermint chewing gum added to the match day atmosphere.  Another more general question, do posters feel that when the club regains majority control over the retail business will LyinBrand cease and desist?   Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyRice1872 105 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 this is my personal opinion entirely my own, but if SOS really cared about Rangers so much wouldn't they give everyone who purchased off them a sheet to sign up to SOS .. They don't I am sure. Because they want to keep the shares/power hungry for themselves I think .. after what seems like getting all of us to donate to their shares anyway by apparently pretending profits are donations to the club in the first instance, instead of what I think is the real scenario - profits are donations to them for them to purchase shares off the club Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Ive never heard any if the scarf sellers claiming the money goes to the Club My issue isnt with any group raising funds or selling merch. My issue is with them misleading fans and telling them the money goes somewhere it doesnt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always nice to hear from another satisfied Rangers fan. Once again I thank you for purchasing the "Genuine Framed Copy Of The Deeds" signed and verified by the Rangers board." I can again re-assure you any similarities the board signatures bear to my handwriting are purely co-incidental. And I hope you are still enjoying your previous purchases, a "100 % polyester red, black and green hooped alternative Rangers jersey" and a copy of "The Official Rangers Squad Karaoke songbook 2014" yours staunchly, Tannerall   Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wullyRFC 5,230 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Nothing that's sold outside the stadium is available in the Rangers Shop so it's not taking custom away. They also don't ask you to buy their stuff instead of going in the shop. Pointless arguement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky True Legend 2,682 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I learnt the words to many of our (loyalist) songs from a wee book bought from a "trader" outside Ibrox in the 60's. Nothing like that ever sold from a Rangers shop so not taking money away from the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
