BeargerNo.1 49 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Dear BeargerNo.1 Our last League result, at Parkhead, was the perfect way to end the year and meant we moved into the winter break and 2020 with a sharp focus on what can be achieved in the second half of our domestic and European campaigns. Supporter contribution to our remaining games this season will be vital and fans will continue to provide a source of inspiration to the first-team squad and our coaching staff, in particular at Ibrox, where our 50,000 strong support create an atmosphere which is the envy of most other clubs. As always the club is grateful to our 46,000 season-ticket holders but it would be immensely helpful if fans could inform the club when they are unable to attend matches. By doing so, we could pass on these tickets to other supporters, many of whom are on our season-ticket waiting list which currently sits at 15,000. As we enter a potentially defining period for the club, we urge every season-ticket holder to back the team in person at Ibrox Stadium, no matter who the opposition might be. However, we fully understand the demands of modern working practices and family-life commitments must take priority at times so we have relaunched the Seat Sub platform, which offers an easy way to exchange seats when fans cannot make games. Under this scheme the club will return 50% of the ticket price for resold seats to supporters unable to attend matches to be credited against their 2020/21 season ticket. So, if you can’t attend, please use the Seat Sub platform so that another supporter may have the opportunity to attend and help ensure we keep Ibrox roaring for every last minute of this 2020/21 season. If you use the scheme throughout January, you will be entered into a draw to win an exclusive, behind the scenes tour of the Hummel Training Centre. For more information or to release your seat for our games against St Mirren or Ross County, visit Rangers.co.uk/seatsub Yours sincerely, Stewart Robertson Steven Gerrard Managing Director Manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but they changed the way it works, I have passed my ST on to people here and some just went to the TO and got a reprint for £5 but then in the summer they sent out letters saying your St was a contract between you and the club so you should't let anyone else us it, so now if I can't make a game like the next 2 midweeks my ticket is no use to anybody else!

Not against them doing it, but let’s not pretend it’s for the benefit of the fans or to have a full stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont agree with getting £12 for your ticket through club channels, thats perfectly reasonable opinion to voice. A thread like this attracts the moral police fs. Tell them tae fuck off in future.
