The Moonlighter 3,624 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Due to the current climate surrounding the Club the feed-back that we've had from many Rangers supporters is for us to offer the Founders Trail as a stand alone option from our Tour package.However, those still wishing to take the full package including the tour of Ibrox Stadium can still do so. Our Tour packages are as followsThe Founders Trail and Ibrox Stadium TourAdults £20 Concession £15.The Founders Trail Only.Adults £14 Concession £12People can upgrade to the full package at any time as long as capacity on the bus allows.Gift Vouchers are now available to purchase and will be posted out to you on the same day.They are without limit of time and are valid for all future Founders Tours.The first batch of Tours dates will be published early in the new year.Just send us an email to thegallantpioneers@googlemail.com and we'll get your Gift Voucher posted.

The Moonlighter 3,624 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Was that from the handfuls that turn up for Struth protests and RST AGMs?It was from a steady flow of emails.It would be a bit rude to ask people what they do with their spare time , not really our business.This ensures that no-one misses out on what is for us the most important part of the day , the educational aspect of the Founders Trail.

If people choose not to give the Club money then that is their democratic right, they shouldn't however then have to miss out on our wonderful story which is the main reason the Founders Trail was formed in 2009.

Im sure they would be delighted to hear that part sometime in the future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

govanblue 16,847 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Supporting the club is what it's all about.Why Should we support the Founders' Trail, if it doesn't support Rangers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
govanblue 16,847 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 And maybe you should consider a London Road Tour for those that don't fancy Ibrox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenosebrad 452 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Shame I thought the trail and the tour round Ibrox would be the total package? so we can see where it started and the where it is today? bit like going on a booze cruise with no boat.

minstral 5,375 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 You have done a fantastic job with your tours. But now the way you are behaving is showing disrespect to the people of the graves that you visit. Rangers is for all of our fans and not your little gang that you support.

Ace 3,556 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Holy hell, it's not as if they've said "We will no longer include the Stadium Tour" ... as a consumer, it's all about being given choice. Founders Trail is providing 2 options, you pick which one suits your requirements and take it from there. There seems to be folk desperate to be pissed off by this rather than just seeing it as a choice .... "You can buy the chocolate bar or the box of chocolate bars" ... all seems fairly innocuous to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
govanblue 16,847 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Once you offer any option which allows you to use Rangers to profit yourself without profiting Rangers in any way, you have put both feet firmly on the side of spivvery.
