He owns the biggest sports retail chain in Britain. He's already guaranteed to be involved somehow

There you go, we can't really tell him to do one then by that logic.

And there we have it - no new kit this season. So basically Ashley wants rid of the backlog of 16/7 shirts so agrees a knock down deal to clear out inventory. The deal is renegotiated yearly so he ramps it back up in SD favour again next year, just not as much as he did before. 

This isn't a win, Ashley's still controlling the game.

Well actually we can. Fair enough we'll lose his SD's reach but in no way are we forced to take a contract with shitey terms again.

PUMA have said that they can't manufacture a new home kit - which must be registered in advance of the season starting. 

If teams have to register their kit by 1st week / 2nd week in July at latest, this still only gives Puma two weeks to pull millions of newly constructed home kits together, for players, and for all sizes of fans man, woman and child...

 

(This was according to King in his interview)

We can look at new retail options at the end of this season. 

Be surprised if SD don't have first dibs, could be a rolling contract year on year with a notice of termination period. Hope I'm wrong but knew it wouldn't be as great as made out

Unless part of the new deal dictates he must be involved in a new one after year 1.

Pathetic int it. 

Same line I've seen the usual deranged mentalist tarriers come out with on Twitter to try give a negative slant. 

As I said, strange.

It's a 1 year deal. Not a rolling MA renegotiation.

Some people just hate Rangers. 

He's better sticking to the OT! Bears Den isn't for him. ?

I think he might be on the wind up.

Puma must be a big seller in SD I wonder if puma told Ashley to fuck off or lose his contact

Has he not got something to do with Puma? I always associated Puma with Ashley.

Next season I'm expecting the board to be able to bring in a 4 mill a season shirt deal at least, that's money straight into the club, before we even sell a top. No Ashley No profit margin No Lyinbrand, just cold hard cash to put the taigs to the sword.

Hopefully with this move forward, shitey terms are in the past.  Can't see that happening again, whether he is involved or not.

Give what up?  Just discussing with others what has happened in the last 24 hours, no one is gonna die, no one is getting their knickers in a twist, ffs!

[Brian Fantana 28,894]

head in the sand loyal having a field day, how about we get a fans group that are purported to represent the fans to ask the board how much we get now compared to the last deal, if SD have first refusal of a new deal given they are in place and this is a rolling contract and if there will be termination fees to end the deal at the end of this year on the contract.

[Brian Fantana 28,894]

Is Ashley getting the boycotters to buy his wares - yes.

Is he clearing the inventory that he has from last season - yes

Is he still making a profit - yes

 

is there a part of the contrcat that states we can leave without penalty at the end of this year given this is a new contract that has been created? - don't know.

How much in our favour is the new contract compoared to the last - don't know.

Will the contract decrease in our favour if renewed and new strips released? - don't know.

When will we get the money from this new contract - don't know........

Its a rolling contract? It ends in one year. No termination. 

As said, give it up. Its weird.

you've seen the contract then? I'd prefer to wait and see what happens at the end of this year given this year is still seeing Ashley get his money and we don't know how much more we get. How do you know that there isn't something to say that we are obliged to go with SD unless a better deal is in place?

Ashley is not gone, people need to realise that.

[BridgeIsBlue 66,606]

About to sell his shares but he's not going anywhere.

Unreal.

Both Puma and SD deals finish in one year, we can got to the market and choose both a new retail and kit supplier if we so choose.

Must be like trying to argue with taigs abut this.

Even Blue Avenger is happy ffs

The majority of the support will buy their strips from the megastore and online as thats where Rangers will get the vast majority of profit, as said by King yesterday. 

Who gives a fuck about Ashley clearing his stock? We'll make the same money off Sports Direct sales of our stuff as he does. Probably won't even get rid of it his stock all as most will still avoid there.

The contract is for one more year and then it ends. Thats not a termination. Your mind is just running off the scale trying your best to think of something that puts a negative spin on this, when there isn't one.

When did Ill Phil start posting on here?
