What stadium in Orlando will we be playing at? Can’t see anything online, there’s a fair few to choose from.

A few still went over, the flights out and back were quite busy with Rangers fans on it. Not a massive number, but enough.
No idea regards Rangers recovering costs. It's went quiet on that front but I don't know if that's Rangers intention at all. They never promised it but the SLO was interested in our costs. I'd imagine if they are trying, then it would be after they got the clubs expenses back.
Cheers for the update, hopefully Rangers will help if they can.
-
What was the outcome of this? Did anyone still go over to Canada or did you all just take a hit on flights booked, are Rangers helping recover costs?
Hope anyone who did still go over had a good 4 or 5 days in Toronto.

What does poor ticket sales mean?
Were they expecting a sell out and only sold half? Or are we talking a few thousand sold?
Its basic economics I guess the outgoings to pay both teams, staff on the night and returfing the pitch would all need to be covered before they can even look at making a profit.
Seems they have made a meal of their earning projections.
Maybe they seen how many we took to Germany and thought we would take thousands along with North American bears going too.
I looked at going but like many it’s getting to the end of the year and holidays didn’t make it possible for me with 3 days plus the weekend needed to head over.
Not sure why Benfica didn’t just hold the game in their own stadium, we would have taken thousands to Lisbon, easier to get to and fewer days needed holiday wise.

So you can sponsor a stand at Hamilton for £600 a season ?
Rangers Media stand anyone?

Fox and hounds Kissimmee as mentioned above. Look out for these cars in the car park
Nice, I prefer the RFC 1872 plate better myself though.

These smoke bombs have only made a big appearance in the last 5 years.
Shows how bad our footballs been when guys are getting excited by coloured smoke FFS!

Been caught a few times with that as well, not this year tho' played shit
My clubs CSS is always -1 so I'm used to it knowing I need to be 2 under to get a cut but this really annoyed me 16 players out of 91 HC or better and still it goes to 69, it is totally flawed.

Because of the NRs mate they Fuck with the css
Exactly people NR because they are having a nightmare maybe because of conditions, yet I battle through and score -1 under and don't get cut, it's infuriating
-
Played on Wednesday through some appalling conditions and scored a Nett 69 1 under.
Get the results in today, finished 3rd in my division, 30 players out of 91 NR and only 16 finished nett par or under.
CSS was still 69 so no cut, an absolute joke.

We'll get 10k at the most. Even that will be a major headache for the polis. I remember there being a bit of bother around Edinburgh before the Ramsdens Cup final a few years back.
The police there handle huge crowds at concerts and sell out Rugby games, I'm sure they could handle 20,000 of us coming through for the day, though no doubt there's more challenges than policing a 6 nations game.

Can I ask why they will be using murrayfeild for this game?
Is it just to make them more money?
New main stand is running months behind schedule and about £2 million over budget.
Apart from that it's going well
-
It used to be £10 which covers admin costs etc, £20 was just profiteering being honest.

Cmon, so every news agency on earth would sit on the story?
If it starts being reported I'll believe there is something in it. The clubs may well have commented too today if there was a possibility of anything happening.
Not saying they would sit on it but not many will push it or highlight the issue, i.e. On the phone to UEFA looking for an immediate statement.

Look, aside from sky there appears to be no one running this story. I'd have expected it to be splashed everywhere if there was even a chance we'd be reinstated.
Really, when does the media ever fight our corner?

"If you shot a 59 at golf tonight you deserve to be DQ........you have obviously cheated!
If that happens I'll be getting drugs tested by the committee!!

It's a non story because he was given a drug to treat an athsma attack, they are not going to kick them out of Europe for that and simply retrospectively approve it. They're not going to see someone having an athsma attack and say 'hawd on son need to give UEFA a bell to see if I'm allowed to save your life'
People getting their hopes up about this being a way back in is yet another load of embarrassment heaped on us and our club
For those of that mentality - I wouldn't hold your breath! (Too soon for a joke?)
It's nothing to do with his Athsma attack it's about his club playing him when he's not been cleared to play.
if every club starts doing that in every competition then it would be a farce.
Could we play a guy waiting on a work permit as retrospectively he would have got it?
Rules are Rules I'm afraid
if i shoot a nett 59 at the golf tonight and don't sign my card it's DQ
tough titty.

He is full of skill and his football brain is streets ahead of anyone in our side.
Unfortunately his brain is ahead of his legs also, they won't carry him any more at any decent level .
The man is done , it's quite sad to watch in truth .
He's good enough for our league this season though.

Quickest he ran all night was when he was being subbed.
Was fucking like a whippet.
Sad, but so true, summed up our team our tempo was pathetic.

At least you're going to a holiday destination, enjoy it have a sash ash in the sun!

I don't want a penny back but a gesture to charity would be welcome as it didn't cost £20 to process a card.
Rangers Fans Fighting Fund

I thought the remaining funds were going into a stand at Auchenhowie or has that been scrapped?
