K.A.I 36,183 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 They were true to their word and awarded me a substantial enough sum to cover my lawyer fees for Hampden. I'm especially grateful as I'm not working just now and the money has came in handy at the right time. From their fund raising finishing to their email to me from my lawyer confirming what I paid in fees to her the money was in my bank account the very next morning. I am touched that we have one group out there that actually looks out for the fans - unlike Club1872 or any other shambolic handwringing entity that toes club lines and fobs you off. This is what being a Rangers supporter really is about to me and won't be forgotten. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Soprano 22,428 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 The crowd funding and fundraising they did after the cup final was superb. They put a lot of people to shame including the hierarchy at the club and the RFFF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy1984 6,314 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Good to know a group is willing to fight the fans corner. More than can be said for the board with their guilty until proven innocent approach Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
minstral 5,375 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Fantastic to see VB bears help fellow fans, unlike others who are happy to fleece fellow bears. VB help our fans and defend our club, and have no interest in blazers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimfanciesthedude 25,688 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 club1872 will confer with the clubs board and get back to you within 3 days no doubt, probably to tell you that you are banned from ibrox forever and they have also shopped you for singing the billy boys Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jintybear 8,751 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 That's outstanding by VB they truly are the only group who stick up for our club, it's a pity they don't have a member on our board! @K.A.I did you win your case? I'm still sickened by the clubs actions by this. One minute saying the fans were correct in their actions then banning them AFTER season ticket money had been collected. Fkn sickening.

scottyscott1963 19,223 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Only a shame VB's are not in charge of our club or K.A.I. might have been presented a guided tour and his dinner after the SCF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
govanblue 16,847 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Quote In the interests of transparency we can confirm that a total of £7475.99 was raised for the benefit of the Legal Defence Fund. This is broken down as follows: * £500 - Barrington RSC. * £1218.77 - Polo Shirts sold by VB. * £5757.22 - Crowdfunding (£6110.02 was raised but their 5% fee & card processing charges of 1.3% credit card, 17p debit card were deducted = £352.80). Note: This includes the £1690 from the Holepark fundraiser. A number of affected supporters have been in touch - to date, one fan has had his lawyers fees reimbursed. VB Admin offer a sincere thank you to everyone who made a contribution towards the fund. The Rangers family looks after its own. I like Numbers. just as a quick hijack - the last time we asked the Vanguard Bears for help on here, a load of their members fired a pile of donations in to Wee Joshua's Appeal. So here's another shout out for any VB who may have missed that last shout out. http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?/topic/295510-attention-vanguard-bears/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 Guys just to be clear the court case was done months ago, but obviously had to wait until the fund-raising had finished which it did a few days ago and true to their word they gave me what I had paid out and was out of pocket. This thread was just an acknowledgement of that and a thank you for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
