True Azure 1,414 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Been out at a funeral and had a couple of bottles of Becks. Can someone on here show me where DK calls for a "boycott" of Rangers supporters purchacing season tickets? As far as I can establish, he calls for season ticket dosh to be ringfenced using two methods, nowhere that I see is he calling for a "boycott"?

elephants stoned 2,994 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 He wants the board starved out, they will never agree to a ring fence as that will kill us and King knows this, but he will use their refusal to ringfence as a excuse to make a boycott official with the same results.

The Dude 20,026 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Talk of ringfencing is just a fancy way of calling for a boycott, any blind person can see that.No its not.If the board does not provide disclosure to the fans then it is time to draw a line in the sand. I propose that the fans buy the season tickets only on one of the two following bases;1. The fans pay the season ticket money into a trust and the funds are released to the club on a "pay-as-they-play" basis.2. The fans pay the season ticket money into a trust and the funds are released in full to the club but against security of the club property until such time as all games are played. In that way the fans will have some protection from a future event of failure if the board cannot bridge the funding gap that clearly exists.In both scenarios STs are bought and paid for in full.

ritchieshearercaldow 22,011 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 He wants the ST money only to be paid on a game by game process, fair enough but how can the club make any plans without money in the bank, what happens if there are games postponed? The cash would dry up surely.As long as the club can get the investment via STs at the start of the season they can make their plans.So in that sense it's a boycott.

So where is that a boycott? Who in this scenario is boycotting the club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you so obviously do.Both scenarios are holding the club to ransom and makes it virtually impossible to have forward planning, all the while constantly assuming that we're going bust again or something.People are up in arms about Laxey having security against the car park yet they think fans should do the same thing?
