govanblue 16,847 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Poll is now closed.Darren Cole was the winner, with 40% of the vote.Seb Faure was 2nd with 27% of the vote._____________________________________________We now need to quickly decide which player we wish to sponsor.The poll is open to all, whether you made a donation or not.We will call Rangers tomorrow to confirm that the list is correct, but there's a chance that we've forgotten a few (eg Wiktorski) so we may have to abandon it and start again.But since time is of the essence, lets get started.Feel free to add your thoughts on who we should vote for and why.

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Darren Cole for me for the reasons elephant's stoned stated above.Happy to go with whatever comes out on top though, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Robot 21,513 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I don't care lads and will go with the majority. Hopefully we will keep this going and sponsor them all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I wanted to vote for Cole, but went for Faure because I think he'll be in the match squad more. What happens if a player isn't selected for the match squad? Since we're paying a few bob for this, am guessing they can't just leave us out? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude 20,027 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Faure for a couple reasons. Firstly, and I'm not sure this is still the case, they put the sponsors logo next to the players face on the screens pre-match when announcing the team. Faure is most likely to feature regularly (unless they do it with subs then Gallacher) and secondly I just like him. I think he's had a bad rap from some of our fans and given time he will grow into a very good Rangers player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLE SUPER WILBERT 2,475 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 If it's to be a player who's going to be in the match day squad isnt Gallacher the most obvious one to go for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madina 4,275 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Think out of those thats left Faure is likely to play more often. Gallagher is always in the matchday squad. Cole I dont think will get much playing time unless we have an injury crisis, will Stella ever play?I voted Faure but whoever we get I'll be hapy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madina 4,275 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Also, what does this cash we're putting in actually go to?That's a very good question actually. The club must make around £25,000 per season with these sponsorship deals. Wonder where it goes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he comes back, Gallacher is meant to go out on loan. I don't know if this is true, but I read it on here last night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
