I'm happy buying unofficial stuff if produced by Bears and a decent wedge of the cash is going directly towards a sound Rangers cause. If it's just merchandisers making a quick buck it leaves a bad taste even if the item is pucker. So, if the OP can confirm, then I'm definitely up for a couple!!

I'm not an IPR expert but I doubt the "differs slightly" would hold up anywhere. It's not a trick question have they got authority or have they not.

Miller time 4,988 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Founders trail is the best thing I've been on in a long time. Guys that run it are fantastic. Remember when we used to think we were founded in 1873 and now it's 1872 that's down to them. Who the fuck are people to ask about crest permission etc. Have you ever bought scarf outside Ibrox? The same people that sell their scarfs at the big jock knew camp. I bought one of these scarfs at the family day at Ibrox and the quality is superb. Thanks to all the guys that make the founders trail happen. Keep up the good work Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a trick question have they got authority or have they not. I would really like to buy one but my principles will not allow me to take the step. The Club's name and our crest are our most important intellectual property right. I feel it's our duty to protect and preserve the history and heritage of it.

Asking a question to someone who comes on to "sell their wares" is hardly being "on the offensive". Apologies that I am interested enough to seek clarity regarding the utilisation of club IPR. To be honest I quite fancy one but I will be fucked if I am buying it if it hasn't been officially authorised. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your argument makes no sense. I would be interested to know how you envisage sales of the Founder's Trail scarves leading to the demise of our Club name and Crest. Particularly since unofficial merchandise has been rampant throughout society since long before I was born, and yet the club's name and crest are both still here. How long do you reckon we have left?
