The shirt sponsor and the kit all go through RR and didn't sponsorship have to be agreed with him via RR? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The shirt sponsor and the kit all go through RR and didn't sponsorship have to be agreed with him via RR? As I understand it Rangers issued a termination notice to bring the Rangers Retail Ltd contract to an end, alleging that SD had breached the contract. SD is claiming damages and costs and I believe a court case has still to conclude on this. An aspect of this is the issue of who has the intellectual property rights to Rangers logo. If it transpires Rangers has unlawfully terminated the retail contract, and if the court agrees with SD about this, then I don't see how Rangers can sell a Puma top with 32 Red on it and the Rangers logo as Rangers does not appear to consider the Rangers Retail Ltd contract to still be a contract they have to honour. Looking at the Rangers press release on the Rangers website it seems to me the Club is careful to say ".....will sponsor Rangers’ playing kit for the next two campaigns starting in July 2017." And 32 Red state "....two year agreement that will see the 32Red brand feature on the front of the players shirts.". Fair enough as far as kit for the players and the club staff themselves are concerned. Because that it is presumably not part of the Rangers Retail Ltd contract ie Puma provides kit to Rangers and the kit has the 32 Red logo and the Rangers logo and its used solely and only by Rangers itself, and not resold so its not affected by the scuppered Rangers Retail Ltd deal. But note that the statement by the Club is silent on the treatment of the 32 Red logo on replica kits and on the sale of replica kits........presumably because there is no resolution to the court case yet and there isn't a contractual solution to selling replica kits. Unless of course they are trying to resolve it with SD before the court attends to the case. Running out of time though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All that matters is people are seeing "Red32", because they'll get more money from people using their app/website than people buying the strip. Yeah, it's all about the tv/print exposure from the games, not the shirt sales. All teams have sponsors, very few teams sell more than a handful of shirts. Good to see their advertising has had the desired impact on you btw. 32Red, not Red32! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Couldn't be because fans will be able to buy strips again soon, would it? There is nothing stopping fans buying strips if they so wish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leeds_Bear 6,970 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 8 hours ago, With Heart and Hand said: Yes but much more people see the shirt sponsor on a daily basis when Bears are all buying tops and wearing them all the time. If we had all been buying tops then folk would be seeing 32RED all over the place every single day not just when they watch Rangers games. I guess its not a deal breaker or as big a deal as I thought but id imagined it would have been something the sponsor would have been at least a bit concerned about. And I know its a different matter altogether but id be interested to hear PUMAs thoughts on all this Above the line exposure is the most premium way to market a product, European football and more coverage of home games will have played the biggest role in the enhanced deal. Whether people buy the tops or not isn't really a major concern for 32Red - mass exposure is, that's what TV audiences give you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(moreso than it is for Old Firm games and Rangers TV broadcast abroad). Also... big Bruno wearing a 32 Red top would have sweetened it :) I pronounced that like a Columbian signing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
