pete 2,499 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Apple want the naming rights to ibrox. Would have proffered an Orange to be honest. As long as the tims get the banana skin. That would be a peach but probably get a lot of sour grapes from Lemon. Och well big Raspberry to him.:smile: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

plgsarmy 111 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Hope it's not 'moonbeams', but he does have shares to sell. I was at the meeting and, to be honest,that was exactly what was going through my mind. £100m a year for worldwide media rights, £25m from the G51 development. When I asked how that was to be funded he started talking about pension funds. To me it was a sales pitch and some of the things discussed seemed a bit 'pie in the sky' to me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeardyGuts 6 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Unless i am missing something, is it not a bit contradictory saying one hand he will not be taking Rangers back to the SPL and then saying he has discussed a budget for returning to the top with the manager....? Some positive points but some seem totally ridiculous if you ask me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow i really wish they would just stick to facts and things they know are likely. I mean the papers will only pick up on this and the Apple naming rights thing and in my opinion makes a mockery of a lot of other positive points. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I had joked about the i-Brox/Apple link up a while ago.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I can't see Apple wanting to sponsor anything to do with Rangers. They've not got involved with any American sports team so why do it with us? I'll gladly be proved wrong though with this company 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used it as an example -i.e. if Apple wanted to give us money to name it i-Brox stadium he would be delighted to take it. He also talked about a European League, linking up with Asia and the Far East and I kept thinking I had heard it all before. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
