If we're owned by the community, where would be now? There wouldn't have been the funding that King at al have provided. There's no way we'd be top of the league. I'm all in favour of fans having a say, but fans having the power to replace directors etc wouldn't work going on the amount of crazy opinions that you see on-line. A great number of people are easily swayed, depending on the forum they're on as well.

Just a pity the website is terrible. Hard to navigate through everything and find what you are looking for ?

What a weird subject to discuss. Thread closed.

True, but I reckon £49 a year is great value for the considerable, enjoyable and quality content aired by the RTV team.

Russia are a vastly superior side to Scotland. Only a fool would suggest otherwise. Bringing on a SPFL championship striker as a substitute just about sums up where the Scotland national team are at present

Think for Clarke the result is more important that the style at the moment.

Put bluntly Glasgow Council are bust, the equal pay issue has forced them to 'sell' or 'lease' almost all the physical assets they have to either raise or save money. From a number of perspectives this makes sense. It removes future costs from the council and provides an asset for the club and its ambitions. If it also signals a better relationship with our council too, then so much the better.

NEWS City Council approves Foundation's Ibrox Community Complex Proposal Thu 10th October 2019 Glasgow City Council has today (10 October 2019) approved the Rangers Charity Foundation’s proposal to revitalise the Ibrox Community Complex, via a long-term lease. Backed by Rangers Football Club, the Foundation’s proposal will also enable an upgrade and significant boost to the use of the facility, making it an improved and more sustainable community asset. Rangers Charity Foundation Director, Connal Cochrane, said: “The Rangers Charity Foundation exists to be a force for good on behalf of the Rangers Family, showing compassion to those in need, tackling inequalities and creating opportunities for people of all ages to change their lives for the better. “The Foundation and the club are currently key users of the facility, but we believe in its potential to be enjoyed by more people. In the past year, the Foundation has delivered twenty-six community programmes and activities, including many at the Ibrox Community Complex, to almost seven thousand people across education, employability, health and wellbeing, and diversity and inclusion. “We believe that, with the club and local partners, we can create a thriving Ibrox Community Complex and look forward to working with the City Council and Glasgow Life to progress this exciting opportunity.” Councillor Ruairi Kelly, Chair of Glasgow City Council’s Contracts and Property Committee, said: “I am delighted that Glasgow City Council and Rangers Charity Foundation are working together on this lease and welcome the investment that will enable the continued use and upgrading of this community facility. “With input from the community and other stakeholders I’m sure the success of this model will be of great benefit to the local area.” Glasgow Rangers’ Managing Director, Stewart Robertson, said: “I am delighted with the unanimous decision taken today by Glasgow City councillors. A long-term lease for the Rangers Charity Foundation is a vote of confidence in the Foundation and Rangers Football Club. “We look forward to seeing the Ibrox Community Complex becoming an animated and busy facility, catering for many in our community. I appreciate the contribution by officers and councillors at the City Council and the officials at Glasgow Life who have all worked to deliver this positive development.”

Just loose ends of deal to complete mate Chris talks about it on the 4lads podcast this week, done deal just odds to sort out basically

I'm not saying strip it down and we absolute should look to improve facilities/the experience wherever possible but, for now, and certainly until we win the league again, I'd prefer most investment went into the team.

It's all about letting ordinary supporters have a meaningful say. What on earth is wrong with that? We nearly lost our club due to the machinations of venture capitalists.

I think most fans, for the moment at least, would prefer a successful team on the park rather than nice (but often costly) additions. Improvement right across the match-day experience is very welcome and necessary but as long as we're winning I doubt many folk really care about the quality of the pies and whether or not they can get on Twitter at half-time.

Not exactly a nice topic to randomly think about!

Don't think any club needs the heavy hand of comrade Corbyn and his merry band. All we really need is for the SFA and EFL to correctly administer the fit and proper rules instead of going weak at the knees every time some chancer with a suitcase full of money comes along to buy a club. Of course some, don't even need a full suitcase as it is filled during and after they have left a club.

I have the 17pound + a month as I live abroad but well worth the price. Welcome back mate.

Has everybody forgotten Craig Whyte now then??
