Does anyone know why when sky or Bt cover games from Ibrox they use the Green portable box in the east enclosure and not use the box like they used too over on the Govan/Brommie corner?
Im m sure they used to be live from i there now the window is covered on match days
Always black affronted when they have a live game and when inside the viewers are treated to a stupid gap between Broomloan and BS Stands. As bad as a 2nd div teams temp scaffold.

We wouldn't need 60,000 seats even if Ibrox was the national stadium, don't see why folk are obsessed with this idea
Tell that to the fans on the waiting list as the limit of 43000 because of the scum . Ibrox was at one time the top stadium in Britain but in this day and age it is so far down the ladder it is a shame to see. btw just on sky that the scum have sold 50000 season tickets so far , the Rangers fans will probably have their allocation cut again.

Will never get use to them having the full stand just gives them a massive looking away support where as the Rangers fans at parkhead are tucked away out of sight from the watching world , I would put them in the BS enclosure, main and club deck to the same 8000. Damage is nothing new but everything to do with them is hyped in their favour . BTW why all the stewarding in the corner and the SJ stand is this the f........ SNP , if your there watching the game and the stewards are blocking your view it would be worse than a restricted seat, gone are the days of two rows of seats segregation.

So according to the record Jim Stewart will be keeping his job as goalkeeper coach when the new gaffer takes over. Anyone else unhappy about this? I don't think he has done much to improve the keepers he has coached and is very much part of the previous failed regimes. I fail to see what he brings to the table and hope he will be gone in the summer when there will be time to get a good replacement.
Thoughts?
Yes he has done nothing to help was a pish keeper in his day and the final straw was seeing him show instructions to players preparing to come on . Jim just go btw is Pedro not bring his own keeper coach?

Big difference without Halliday , hope he doesn't get anywhere near the first team again. Toral might be a player after all .

All due respect folks some of you guys wouldnt have survived the old day standing on the old terracing huvin tae pish on the back of the leg of the bloke infront the smell of smokes drink and pishy troosers tae watch yer team ...... now we've got men talking about cobwebs polishing mirrors ,hoovering painting wee bits here and there washing covers??lol. Fucks goin on in here the real housewives of Govan? I understand we want the best but ffs let's focus on getting a group a decent players on the park and a manager first......
Aye a remember the old ibrox it was a dirty black pit as well , this one is 40yrs old and paint and banners is a waste of time , the folk in charge need to read these forums . the old girl is more like anne widdecombe than helen Mirren, major investor in and drop the three stands before they fall to bits. used to be proud of ibrox not anymoe.

As we are seeing stadiums getting bigger, more modern and the smaller sides moving to these arenas I still wouldn't swap any of those 60 plus thousand stadiums for the one we have.
It might not be the biggest in Britain or even Scotland but IMO it's by far the most impressive in terms of structure, atmosphere and tradition. How many of these kind of stadiums are left nowadays? They are a dying breed and I for one hope we keep ours the way it is (well a bit of a touch up and standing area in the near future) as it oozes class.
Just look at the beauty!

Ibrox was the envy of all in the uk from the bowl shape in the sixties to the ultra modern ibrox in the eighties now you see all these prem teams down south expanding, just shows how far the club has fallen in stature. Our grand old lady is walking with a zimmer and smelling of pish now.

Probably happen in the next decade when the stadium is rejuvenated and things on the park are fine
In a decade the modern ibrox will be 50 years old, hope they modernise it before then, its falling apart and all this vinyl signage is just papering over the cracks.As for standing it has to be the east enclosure first and fill it with UBs .

Just watched "Joe Garner all the goals" on youtube , what a player ,we have natural finisher ,great in the air scores with both feet , was a hero for Preston and if he plays against Kilmarnock he'll score a hat trick for starters. Happy Days
-
Just back from Marmaris where Rangers are massive every turk knows the gers ,the Ibrox bar was heavin for the Hamilton game . the Ibrox bar boat trip is a big event. and as for the 12th that's a three day party and parade .
-
Kranjcar was playing with lead boots on , defence passing back to keeper TOO much which always give them back the ball , some players can't even control the ball , need Rossiter playing sweeper and never though i'd say this but keep Wilson in for Hill, Hodson for Tav . only positives for me were when subs came on was better and Windass will be back.

Spending millions on increasing the stadium capacity right now is silly.
We need that investment in the team/background/training and youth.
I think with Mr King in charge of the purse strings you can guarantee we won't spend millions on anything, He and the board are good for the club but bicuit tin and moths flying out the wallet mentality is what we will have for the next few years , until we get a Robert Sarver type we will paint over the cracks and not look to the future for plans for Ibrox. I know a few Scottish barrow boys who have became multi millionaires their still as tight as a troots erse that's what King reminds me off.So get someone on board now surely Rangers have a good profile again which should help.
-
The time is now to at least put plans into increasing Ibrox , with all this talk of denying our own fans there seat and no space for all the waiting list . The only way I can see is third tier on Sandy Jardine , would be a hell of a job but can't see any other way of getting 7-10000 more fans in .

And then watch them give us 500. Fuck that.
Do you think they would cut a huge Rangers support that THEY need ? They need Rangers supporters more than wee needs them that's for sure.

Great player and a special game that will live on in the memory bank

At the time we rebuilt Ibrox, their midden was still their old midden and we were still getting an end of their terracing so in return we kept giving them an end, the new Broomloan Road Stand.
When they rebuilt that was when they got cute and used that as an excuse to alter the area away supporters got, and designated a corner with crap views so their own mob got the best seats, behind both goals. A common tactic in a lot of grounds, when do ever see the away support at Old Trafford, the Nou Camp, or the Bernabeu?
When Ibrox was rebuilt they got the broomie and half the main stand and enclosure about 18000

Apply your argument to Hearts and Aberdeen coming to Ibrox (bigger stadium, should get more tickets, blah blah blah). Bottom line is both Rangers and Celtic give their opposite numbers the same number of tickets. how can that not be fair.

King said he has an agreement with them , so they get more season tickets sold AND 10000 more fans in their ground how is that fair? They get prime exposure at Ibrox and we get stuck in the corner out of sight from the watching world . It seems to me that their calling all the shots , that's why we get pessed off

That's the rub though we give them the same amount of tickets and they have 10k more seats as I've said were getting shafted
Given the difference in capacity between the two stadiums we get the same number , how the f... are you allowing this Mr King ? You are just letting them walk all over you . Yes you will give away fans that corner but you will also give about the same for segregation which from a television point looks like shit all in the name of safety .PISH POOR grow some and stand up for the club.
-
And some say we don't need to increase capacity
-
What happens if the sales go past 44000 regarding the old firm do we get more of the broomie ? and if that is the case what would happen if we sold 50000 ?

I'm not 100% sure about it yet. Think it's great they're investing in the stadium and surrounding areas again. But just now I think it stands out a bit too much and doesn't really look in keeping with the rest of the stadium. Though it's probably the type of thing that will grow on me.
The corner was one of the parts of the stadium that was ok, would rather see the dirty discoloured sides to Copeland/Broomloan done and big vinyll prints draped down the gaps at Bill Struth as hate seeing outside the stadium at those gaps

Sorry but that's utter nonsense, Arsenal had a season ticket waiting list of 20000 when they were at highbury, they play in the PL and are located in London. There is no comparison.
It's neither financially viable nor worthwhile to increase the capacity when there's no demand. This will be the highest uptake in ST sales for a long time and that's down to very unique circumstances.
So getting capacity crowds in the lower leagues of Scotland is not a sign that we couldn't find an extra 10000 fans . and as said I know where Arsenal play and come from . Think back to the time when we opened the club deck ,was chuffed and then the disappointment when the corners were opened to see they were not all seats. 50000 is nothing now in this day and age no matter where you play. Meant to be the biggest Club.

Don't see the point in capacity increase myself. Stadium only really sells out a few times a season.
No point adding 10000 and having loads of empty seats around the stadium.
Like the idea of a facility that's used all year round. Be interesting to see what the plans are when that comes around.
The fans are there to fill it , if the season tickets prices froze and Ibrox had extra capacity would sure to sell 45-50000 season tickets easy . Arsenal went from a 38000 stadium to just over 60000 where did they come from, yes they are premiership Spurs are going to do the same 34000 to 55000 so an extra 10000 seats at Ibrox is no bother , we all know fans who would go if it was easier. Stadium management to get concerts and fight nights to pay for any work . Only be a positive old c... Rant over

Need to sort out the segregation , that was a disgrace having all the corner for 25 away fans . must be another place to put them ie UB 's corner and give them a prime part of the stadium as they get the crowd going .Respect to the young yins
