Good evening Bears, I had a quick search but couldn't see an answer elsewhere. One of the games I wanted to come up for was the Stirling home game on Saturday 23rd March, but I've just realised this is an international weekend (typical). Does this mean our games likely to be re-arranged ?

Is it on English language tv in Scotland or only Alba?

Ok, well first things first. How are Rangers starting with a new name ? He can't be referring to the holding company (whose name has changed) as he says that "Rangers...start today..with a new name". As the new holding company started life some weeks ago, the only thing he can possibly be referring to is the team, which indeed starts today. However the teams name has never changed, it has always been Rangers. So is this guy, ignorant or a liar ?

Got excited there, title implies that our game is live on Sky.

Yep, got to be the only way.

Must be a renegotiation tactic. The value of the product the SPL is realistically about 25% of what it was last season.

Yep, pretty sure.

You can't put Davis in the same category as Naismith & Lafferty. Davis is an international footballer at the height of his earning capacity, you can't expect him to play in the fourth tier of Scottish football when he could play in the top tier of the English game. The club got a fee for him and we avoided paying his wages which would have been ruinous in D3. Naismith & Lafferty on the other hand exploited a technical loophole to deprive the club they "love" of much needed income for their own financial gain.

Auchenhowie - no more cult of personality. It's all about Rangers now.

Why start a new thread ?

It's "simply the best" Sebo, but cheers for the support !

I don't want to face them again until there's a level playing field, with the amount of nonsense we've incurred in the last few weeks I doubt that'll be anytime soon. Would rather make it the most anticipated derby on earth in a few years than the most one sided derby this year

Feels so good to read about actual football !

If Rangers had to re-apply for both membership and league status because the new company didn't inherit the old companies status, how can the new company inherit the old companies punishments ? It seems illogical and clearly they punish us according to the newco's actions and then according to the oldco's actions as they see fit. I'd say it's gone beyond the point of punishment and trying to impose sanctions which are proven illegal takes it to the realm of victimisation. Not only should we reject these sanctions (and whatever punishments they dream up next) but we should be going to the Court of Arbitration in Switzerland to present the facts.

The SFA are responsible for football in Scotland - if you wanted to join another UEFA sanctioned league outside your national boundaries you'd need agreement from your home jurisdiction (whether your registered or not) and absolutely no way will the SFA sanction this. Plus I cant actually imagine anyone genuinely wants us to play in the Northern Irelxnd league.
