    I disagree tbh.

    I'm not a fan of some of their songs either but at least they try to create an atmosphere.  Would be like a morgue without them.

    It may well be, but i also beleive there isnt the desire to start many songs becasue they are doing it in the corner constantly. Take that away and you get more impromtue outburts of song from around the staudium. They have their own agenda to be like European Ultras, this doesnt really suit Glasgow in my opinion. If they sang more of our traditional songs i'd be right up for it, but they seem to lead there own agenda, which doesnt seem to be in line with the other 40-something-thousand in the stadium who dont join in.

    I was watching highlights on Rangers TV last night of European fixtures from the past, when i was reminded of the old band that used to play during games at Ibrox. Would be great to get this back. Anyone have any ideas why this stopped? Extremely glad that the band stopped playing. They made a racket and horrendous din.

    My stupid idiot bastard pal is working until 6.45 on Wednesday and needs to get from coatbrig to somewhere within walking distance of ibrox in his shagger of a motor and get parked so we can both get through the turnstiles before kick off.

    Smartarsed answers are surplus to requirements.

    Any helps appreciated

    I park at the Albion, they have a lane to right on entry for cash payment. £7 i believe,

    A few said I was taking paranoid shite when I said last week .The beggars would not be allowed to lose until end of season and so far ,nothing convinces me otherwise 

    I said a month ago the refs would be Bought and paid for Collum and Thompson 

    Could I yet be wrong ?

    The mad thing is, if he had received a yellow at the time  he would have been banned for this game anyway due to picking up too many yellows. Because they have appealed it is carried over to the following 2 games after this match, Go figure.

    Ticket for Saturday?

    Don't have to shaft them mate, just don't see the need to make the rest of them stronger. 

    A better tv deal wouldn't make us any better off in a league we are competing with Celtic for top prize 

    exception to this would be a deal like England gets but that's not what anyone means so it's a moot point and if anyone does want or think we deserve the same deal as England then they should just log out 

    It would make Rangers and Celtic both stronger as teams meaning that each team would be  stronger on the European stage. Leading to an eventual improvement in our co-efficient,

    I knew Some prick would say this and a couple of gimps would hit like 

    I've covered this loads in the past, it's an absolute myth we need a strong Scottish football to pospher - look at our 2 strongest seasons in recent times the 92/93 CL season where Celtic were on their arse, the only game on TV was the Scottish cup final or Manchester final ... Scotland had been beat off Georgia and failed to qualify for a major competition yet again and the likes of Motherwell were still getting bumped out of Europe damaging our co-efficient 

    There's no major benefit to be had in terms with of Cracking Scottish football if we get a wee bit more in tv money I.e we still get the same amount Celtic will get ... a better tv deal won't change a thing except maybe make the rest of them outwith Rangers and Celtic a bit stronger with a wee bit more money 

    the narrative here is very much about the good of our game - a game that tried to eradicate Rangers from it ... just remember that before you try to preach to me on here (same goes for the 2 dumplings who liked your comment who I thought better of too)

    I completely get where you are coming from here. But strongly believe that for selfish reasons, the only way we will compete at the levels we once did in past ag is through significant investment from TV money. If this was to happen Rangers would once again become a very invest-able  institution and from this we could gain investment that would take us to the next level. 

    Trying to shaft the rest of Scottish Football the way they did to us ins't an option - We are bigger than that.

    1. Richard Keys has an agenda of his own, and is a dubious character to say the least.

    2. The 'product' (Scottish football) is crap, so no broadcaster is going to pay over the odds for it. 

    Is the product of Scottish football not "crap" due to the neglected level of TV funding it perhaps deserves?

    EXCLUSIVE: Boycott Sky Sports until they pay a fair price for Scottish football - TV broadcaster Richard Keys

    Telly broadcaster Richard Keys last night called on armchair fans to boycott Sky Sports and force the satellite giants to pay a fair price for Scottish football.

    Keys spoke exclusively to Record Sport yesterday after we detailed the enormous gulf in the value of broadcast deals across the European game.

    Our expose showed how our struggling clubs are having to make ends meet with one of the most paltry TV incomes anywhere on the continent. The former Sky Sports frontman says he was “astounded” by the disparity which sees the SPFL scrape by on millions less than top flights in countries such as Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Greece – never mind the billions being dished out to clubs in England, Germany, Italy, Spain and France.

     

    Sky must play fair, says Keys

    And he blames his old bosses for mounting what he describes as a deliberate attempt to force Scottish football, on to its knees.

    Keys said: “I wouldn’t advocate people taking to the streets to make their views known but the people of Merseyside deserve enormous credit for the boycott of The Sun newspaper after they were scandalously treated by it post Hillsborough. They simply refused to buy it.

    Scottish football's pathetic TV deal is bottom of the Euro table

    “Maybe it’s time the people of Scotland took a similar stand. Maybe they have to send a message to London they’re not prepared to put up with this. What’s the best way to do that? Stop spending 35 quid a month on a Sky subscriptions.

    “Scottish football is never going to get better unless it has the wherewithal to be able to so. And that requires somebody comes and spends some money on it.

    “It needs people who are prepared to invest in it and to grow it, not try to take it on the cheap.

    “It’s wrong Scottish football is at the bottom of the European league never mind the British league when it comes to TV rights.

    “But what Scottish fans have to do is find a way to make those buying the rights sit up and think.”Keys insists big broadcasters should be prepared to pay the going rate for today’s Scottish top flight, especially now Brendan Rodgers has added some stardust to the set-up at a time when the Old Firm derby is back on the top flight menu after a four-year absence.

    But the SPFL is locked into a long-standing deal with Sky and BT which runs until 2020.

    Keys said: “What they are paying for today bears no resemblance to what they were buying four or five years ago because of the Old Firm fixture and also the presence of Rodgers.

    “He has his critics but Brendan has doubled Celtic’s crowds from 30,000 to 60,000 overnight. He’s creating a team that are making people sit up and take notice by setting records.

     “Look, Scottish football is not entirely blameless for the mess it got itself into a few years ago. But the Old Firm is back and you have something of value to offer the broadcasters.

    “There should be a commitment from London for the betterment of Scottish football because everyone in Britain can benefit from a strong game up north. Just look how Liverpool benefited from having Graeme Souness, Kenny Dalglish and Alan Hansen.

    “There should be a responsibility to help Scottish football because that’s in everyone’s interest. That’s what the broadcasters in London don’t seem to understand.”
