mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Great news to be honest. If we have managed to kick SD into touch and get our own gear out there midway through the season then that's way better than I could have hoped. Great work by the board if they pull this off.

bluewhitevanman 1,619 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I'll get this1 and if they bring out new kit then I'll get that as well. This will be a lot of Shite from the board to try and delay any one from getting and buy themselves more time to get a deal sorted. It's terrible but I don't really believe anything that comes from the board. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 From The Scottish Sun as directed to by PA guy Andy Newport. RANGERS could ditch the controversial Puma strip released without their consent and replace it with a new kit midway through the season. It's believed that extreme option is among a number of moves Ibrox chiefs are considering following the breakdown of their relationship with the German sportswear firm and Mike Ashley's Sports Direct empire. The jersey row was sparked last night when Puma confirmed it had released a batch of kits for sale to Sports Direct and other retailers - despite the club's objections. Under SPFL guidelines, Gers were required to register their colours for the new season by June 1. They have already worn the 1980s-style royal blue home shirt on four occasions during their Betfred Cup fixtures - but there remains a possibility a new strip could be rolled out before the season is over. SPFL rule G31 allows for alterations to be made to the designs so long as the "prior approval" of the league board has been granted first. Light Blues chiefs would also have to apply to alter the kits lodged with the Scottish Football Association for use in the William Hill Scottish Cup. However, the SFA handbook does allow for a change, stating: "Exceptionally, a club may, with the approval of the Board, play in colours which are modified from those which have been registered." Legal action also remains an option but Rangers want to be sure they are in full possession of the facts surrounding the secretive deals struck between the previous Ibrox regime and Sports Direct before making their move. Rangers had spent weeks in talks with Puma, who found themselves caught in the middle of Gers chairman Dave King's bitter war with Ashley.

You just know if we play brilliantly all this boardroom shite is gonna get more coverage. I don't think it will affect the players but it isn't ideal for us a couple days before the season starts which is why the fat cunt probably waited till now to do it.

Sid2103 285 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Hate it when kit talk comes around. Â Everyone always goes "really wish it was adidas making the kits" then go on to say "hate it when we just get templates"Â If we went with adidas templates is all we would get. Hoping for Under Armour personally or a return to Umbro, if we get new kits at all. Whole thing is a shambles. We're going full Southampton!

Â Aye they were pissed cause adidas kept making the home kit all red instead of red and white stripes so they gave 2 fingers to them. Personally want the board to come out with a new statement now that the landscape has changed, or is in the process of changing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
superallysbears 7,768 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Dont think it is a nightmare imo, if it sticks one to fat bastard then whats not to like? Ok we might have a crap looking strip for the next season or two but look at the bigger picture here, lets get rid and tell fat bastard we will see you in court.
