Goianegra 4,695 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 What's the rule on who gets them? I could have sworn I saw Aaron get one and I don't think he played anything like 13 games, or is it different in Scotland? So how is it decided who gets one and who all got one today?

I could have sworn I saw Aaron get one and I don't think he played anything like 13 games, or is it different in Scotland? So how is it decided who gets one and who all got one today? My understanding is it's 10 appearances qualifies you for a medal - hence Boumsong requested one be sent to him when he left. But every player got one today, so either there's logistics to be done, or that rule's been scrapped. But surely it hasn't as Dailly was playing down the idea of not winning a medal.

savenosouls 97 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I read somewhere that the club can purchase extra - don't know whether that is true or not though - who gives a F*&^ - The trophy is back in the room with the bike!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyFRFC 10 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Ye I'm sure the club can buy more if they feel players who didn't play are deserving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 9 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Ye I'm sure the club can buy more if they feel players who didn't play are deserving. I thought it was a league rule that 10 appearances were minimum. Since when can you buy more because you want to give a player one despite them having almost no appearances that season.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I thought it was a 10 game rule myself. Hemdani had a medal round his neck and he hasn't played a game all season, can't understand the logic in that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzapat 83 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Are the medals handed out today not replicas and the club will be given the official ones to hand to those who qualify? Im sure I heard a former player talking about their kid taking his medal to school and the teachers taking it off themso it wasnt lost, he didnt mind as it was a replica??

blueboy94 54 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 It's a different rule in Scotland, everyone in the first team gets a medal no matter how many times they've played. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amac9 2,060 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 The players certain of getting medals are: McGregor, Edu, Weir, Mendes, Papac, Ferguson, Thomson, Boyd, Novo, McCulloch, Miller, Broadfoot, Bougherra, Alexander, Lafferty, Whittaker, Velicka (I think), Davis.

tamh 1 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I posted this on a thread regarding Kevin Thomson getting a medal. The league rules state that anyone who has played in 25% of league matches (or more) gets one automatically but the club can issue discretionary medals as long as they pay the SPL for them. This means that Rangers can award a medal to anyone they think has made a contribution without actually playing the statutory 25% of games. You can bet your life the likes of Dailly (8 games) will get one as will the young guys like Aaron and Fleck and others that Walter deems to have helped the cause.
