Rumours that the new kit will be on sale on Thursday

[RedWhiteBlue1872 407]

Being practical here...

Board are obviously doing this for a reason - Reason being a better deal for Rangers.

Not buying strips is difficult especially for bears with kids etc.

Always going to be a disagreement but my stance is hold off giving the fat c*nt anything.

If the kids sizes are released tomorrow then I'll be getting my 2 the home top, don't care much for other people's opinions to be honest. Rangers fans fighting amongst Rangers fans about whether they should or shouldn't buy a top is embarrassing.

Think for yourself ya balloon 

Wish folk on here would stop trying to tell fans what to do

A forum which doesn't try to influence opinions would be a pretty boring place, also I'm sure you could opine without abuse,maybe not.

CLUB STATEMENT

SINCE terminating the IP Licence and Rights Agreement with Rangers Retail Limited, the Club has made its best efforts to engage with PUMA on an agreed way forward without the involvement of Sports Direct for the manufacture of replica kits and other merchandise to supporters.

During discussions it emerged that PUMA had manufactured some replica kit after receiving purchase orders directly from Sports Direct and without the prior knowledge or agreement of the Club and its directors on the Rangers Retail Limited board, Paul Murray and David King. Despite requests to Sports Direct and PUMA we have not been able to ascertain full details of this arrangement or to reconcile it with the commercial contracts that were in place between the Club and Rangers Retail Limited.

The Club has not been party to discussions on the launch of kit sales by PUMA this week. We were first notified of their intentions after close of business on Friday last week.

We are surprised and disappointed by the lack of consultation with the Club and/or supporters groups prior to the launch.

Are Sports Direct and PUMA holding Rangers Retail to it's contractual agreement?

Have communications broke down between Rangers Retail, SD and Puma.?

Not as embarrassing as letting our club get shafted or ignoring our chairman's wishes. You're entitled to make your choice and people are entitled to disagree but if you "don't care much for other people's opinions " then you're in the wrong place m8  ?

[WilliamFyfe 1,438]

I say don't buy it. Fuck Mike Ashley. 

[Dunny_01 2,007]

If John Gilligan and co are not endorsing this then thats good enough for me ill wait for the real launch

 

no point buying a strip that could change in a month!

[Lidl 191]

Nicest kit we've had in a while but fat Mike won't be getting a penny from me.

The ones endorsing LB are the ones with the biggest problem about purchasing kits.

Folk on FF trying to start a boycott of Puma. Few of them have emailed Puma saying they'll never buy anything made by Puma ever again. What's sending an email to a multi million pound company going to achieve apart from a few laughs in their office?

Fairly sure it is 3% which equates to no influence but he is one of their biggest customers via SD that will create bigger influence that any 3% share holding.

[TMB 14,167]

The board and fans need to work together or the fight for a better retail deal will be pointless.  The board are fighting Rangers corner and it's a shame some fans want to undermine that by buying this strip.
