Frankie 8,484 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 The Blue Order is confirming that we are reluctantly not renewing our season tickets for the 2014/15 season. It is, however, our intention to buy tickets for home and away games on a match-by-match basis so that we can continue to give our full support to our team. Unfortunately, until further notice, we are unable to accommodate any new requests to join TBO or for seat transfers into our section however we would welcome others to congregate with our group in BF5. As part of the Union of Fans umbrella group, TBO have been at the forefront of recent protests against the board and we strongly urge Rangers FC to engage openly with concerned supporters and potential investors to safeguard the club's future. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 5,029 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Up-front money to people you have no good reason to trust would be crazy. Besides the board (this week in court) have said they have other ways of funding the cashflow throughout the summer. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMazza 0 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 If they are continuing to attend all the matches, what's the point? The point is to not give a pile of money in one go, for that to disappear. It's to try to force change. Rangers have had extreme good will in the last two seasons, with fans buying an incredible number of season tickets given the leagues we were in. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 5,029 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 If they are continuing to attend all the matches, what's the point? Perhaps a lack of trust and the want of a tool that pushes ongoing accountability. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 If they are continuing to attend all the matches, what's the point? attendance can be withdrawn at a moments notice. they can also join rangers1872 on an individual basis now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,553 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 The point is to not give a pile of money in one go, for that to disappear. I don't really get that. OK, it stops the club spending cash on transfer fees or signing on fees, but whether you give the cash in July or October, it ends up in the same place and will just "disappear" later rather than sooner, if that's what you think will happen. It's to try to force change. Surely if you want to do that, you don't attend the games? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but it seems a bit like cutting off your nose.... You can still protest at the games which is a lot more symbolic and many won't be aware that you haven't renewed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
