I thought it was interference from GCC people in trying to influence people who work for Glasgow life. Councillor emailed a like minded member of the local community council to throw a spanner in the works, which they were more than happy to do.

CoopsLaud 4,186 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Seeing a bunch of those newbuild generic flats directly opposite ibrox would be horrendous. Get it purchased and used by the club for the club. Bears r us 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 What's so great about a fan zone anyway?? Standing about in a bleak pishing rainy day in Glasgow, It just won't work for the majority of the season imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could blame the community if the councillors ran on a "fuck the Rangers" ticket to get elected but doubt that was the case. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

murzo 7,446 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 RFFF money should have been put towards buying this but too late for that. Hopefully Rangers still get the chance to purchase it and aren’t fucked over by GCC. Bad Robot and JohnHardie 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hopefully we buy it and use it as part of this 2022 - 150 years anniversary thing it makes huge amount of sense to have that land at the front of the main stand however I’m sure GCC would rather sell it for a song to anyone but us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Land Rover 789 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Was this no a vital part of the local community and that's why we couldn't use it for a fan zone ?

Tom0411 1,226 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Wonder if it will be offered to us without it going out to auction like the last lot of land bought by them for car parking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Rangers go all out to try and secure it so that it can be used to help us do more things on match days etc, and maybe even make some money to buy better players. The Louden lads could buy the land surreptitiously on behalf of the club then sell us the land back, might be expensive doing it that way Bobby Hume 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tannerall 25,935 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Buy it and build one of those big electricity generating wind turbines, could even get a grant toward one of those cause they are eco friendly, and would save a fortune in electricity cost. Then paint it bright orange. Gman36 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
