Does anyone else not really care about this 

Anything to get it up the SPFL / SFA is always a good thing in the off season imo.

Fuck em.

Yet tbh we have an empty space for a sleeve sponsor now but still have Sportemongo and Bitci on our shirts and shorts

Hopefully, Dougie Park gets his name on it for top shithousery

I thought I seen we had announced a new lower back shirt sponsor to replace sportemongo, can't find where I seen it though.

For shits and giggles, I would reach out to Cinch and see if it was possible to do a side deal with them for twice as much as anyone else is getting.

I posted it on the Castore thread. Still have it on all our replica tops this season

Surely now is the time instead of fucking about with no mark brands to get a big one to come in and take the sleeve sponsor and broadcast exactly how much we’d get from now until 2026 (preferably more than the entire cinch deal) to finally end these cunts running the game

Would be interesting to see how much our boxt deal is.

right hawd on is it now changed to if we win the league we get fuck all? surely doncaster and everyone else involved must walk now surely Rangers can demand his resignation for maladministration 

even if thats not the case this shambles would have seen him booted from any other league

Think we would still need to get prize money, as this is in a different part of the deal that I don't think was voted for.

Not sure if there is however other payments that come out with prize money for the sponsorship that we would not receive.

Might be wrong though.

The cinch money along with the TV money all goes into something called the prize fund. The SPFL use that to cover their expenses for the season and what remains is distrubed to the member clubs.

That's how I think it works anyway

and dont forget any money paid out to third parties as a finder fee

seriously why dont the other clubs kick up a fuss

[graeme_4 35,030]

Surely we can now go and fill in the blank, at a far more favourable commercial deal than the £80k a season we were getting off the SPFL?

I know you are joking but in that scenario we possibly end up expelled from the league and have our membership of the SFA revoked in attempting that.

To understand how inept and dishonest Doncaster and MacLennan are

They trumpeted this deal as the biggest ever in SPFL history - that was a misleading lie. Ladbrokes paid £6m for 3 seasons in the previous deal = £2m per season (actually £10m over 5 years as the £6m was a 3 year extension to their initial 2 year deal). The Cinch was £8m over 5 seasons = £1.6m per season less £500k third party commissions = £1.5m per season which is now apparently further reduced to £1.4m for the next 4 seasons - 30% less than they were getting  from Ladbrokes 5 years ago.

Add in the fact that that in the last 9 seasons the SPFL has been without a main sponsor in 3 of those seasons, then quite how Doncaster survived when his main priority is securing deals for the member clubs must make you think that someone is protecting him for reasons other than him competently being able to do his job - almost as if he's a useful puppet if you like

From this season's £1.4 or £1.5m you can rest assured that a significant proportion (15-20%) has been wasted on legal fees for a situation that was brought about by the CEO and Chairman ignoring their own rules and trying to bully a member club (a common theme for this pair) with absolutely no chance of winning their case

How they are still in their posts should concern every Rangers fan and indeed every football fan

Only in Scottish football could this happen and no one gets booted out for incompetence.

An absolute clusterfuck, but hell mend the clubs who refused to get rid of Doncaster when we wanted to go for him.

Surely Neil Doncaster won’t survive this if he’s fucked up and Rangers aren’t tied to any league sponsorship now or in the future

Dont think so. We could amicably resolve the issue with out sponsor who held the objection, if they changed term, then our problem would go away.

We wont do it though, but theoretically we could.

Sure Edgar already said we could go to cinch and get a sleeve sponsorship with no issues at all. Our issue is with the SPFL, not with cinch.

The other clubs did what they always do. Doncaster and MacLennan pointed the finger at big bad rangers and they backed them. 

Well they deserve everything they have coming to them now. 

[Rowley Birkin 9,184]

can someone clarify do we get any of the cinch money from the league this year for our finishing place
