LochendBilly 8,423 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I understood it to be that this company were going to manage it, and charge ongoing costs to fans that used the memorial to house relatives ashes. The club now think it isn't a good idea for some reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These issues should be ironed out before a contract is signed. If we've signed a contract, and as per reports changed our minds, then regardless of the basis for the club being unhappy the inept part remains the contract signing in the first place. rabc10000, HG5 and Courtyard Bear 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but if I read correctly did we not see we would cover all costs of the agreement but the other company want more? Or have I completely misread the whole thing LochendBilly 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Robot 21,512 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 An important topic going right off topic to abuse people, no need. I actually think the original design plans looked very cheap and thought it could have been a whole lot better so kind of glad in a way. We do have a habit of messing up contracts these days.

Bears r us 31,000 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Just read this story and it seems we have maybe made a mistake with signing a contract and then deciding not to go ahead with it. Hopefully I have not read it correctly and it does not cost us much. It does seem a bit of a recurring situation with us ending up in court.

TylerDurden 21 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Personally feel that it is unscrupulous and immensely distasteful to turn the deaths of 66 Fans in the disaster into a money making scheme. Been said elsewhere that John Greig was one of the main objectors inside the club, I thank him for that. Also suggestions that it was a former commercial director who signed the contract, it all stinks a little. https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/10639827 'Memorial Walls Ltd' was incorporated in February 2017, 10 months before planning was applied for, have absolutely zero online profile and has filed accounts as a dormant company since it's incorporation. The address listed as "Memorial walls ltd" address is actually the address of Arnold engineering plastics, with whom they share a number of directors. Something doesn't add up......

East Enclosure Row N 2,865 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Our SLO is paid as a full time employee by Rangers FC to Liaise with Supporters. He swans around inside at away games when there are turnstile issues outside, travels to Rangers conventions on the other side of the world and does hee haw for the fans who attend Ibrox. At the very most, he issues a twitter update long after it is public knowledge. We are being told here that supporters were consulted and didn't approve. Anybody here consulted? Nope. Surely the job of our SLO if ever there was one. Just a mouthpiece for his old man what wanted to run a ticket scam. He even claims that the ECWC replica in our trophy room is his as his old man donated it and he's to get it in the will. Club have had it over 40 years. It's not a difficult job, and certainly not a full time occupation. Money for hee haw. What does he do on matchdays home or away? we played 32 home games last season - what did he do for the other 333 days of the year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace 3,556 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 We apparently signed the contracts "subject to stakeholder approval". It seems the stakeholders didn't approve & we are happy to pay genuine costs incurred but the company want much more. We can only be one of a few clubs who's fans jump on the club rather than the those bringing action against us, how about listening to both sides, not just the side you read in the paper that's written for clickbait.
