boabie 230 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 It's financially irrelevant to us who we play at home providing we get half of our matches at home. The crowd will be more or less similar in size no matter who we play at Ibrox so the Partick et al complaints are not our concern. The greatest irritation to me is that these are the same people who bit off their own noses to spite their faces 4 years ago while declaring they didn't need us and are now crying that they don't get enough of us? Frankly, f*%# them all. I wish we could get out of this league and leave them to rot in their own squalor. We should have applied to start at the bottom in England 4 years ago. Is it not the case that the home team keep all the gate money in league matches ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,241 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 For all our home games income is virtually guaranteed via season ticket sales and any extra via public sale and away sales is a bonus. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinstein 294 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Is it not the case that the home team keep all the gate money in league matches ? yes it is. My view is we need a 14 or 16 team league. Hibs, Falkirk could easily survive in the top tier and of course Dundee United 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,675 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Is it not the case that the home team keep all the gate money in league matches ? Yes and that's why it's financially irrelevant to us who we play at home because the crowd will always be a more or less regular size. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearman 9 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I think 1872 have lost the plot here. Motherwell, Partick and Hamilton aren't complaining about us, they are moaning about the income less earned than what their main rivals will achieve due to 4 games vs OF. They have a serious valid point whether it's the Blue or Green pound. Nothing at all to do with Rangers...stop moaning 1872 about something that happened 4 years ago that has no connection with the current fixtures drawn up for 2016-17. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Club 1872 have every right to comment on his. In 2012 clubs were saying they didnt need us & threw out out the then SPL & we had to go cap in hand to the then SFL for membership and got put in SFL3 as its clubs wouldnt have us in SFL1 as the SFA wanted Now,since we got promoted back to the top division,some of these clubs are up in arms cos us & the yahoos areonly going to visit them once each before the split next season. Am I missing something here but chickens are coming home to roost for what they all voted for back in 2012? TOUGH LUCK - frankly couldnt give a damn about these clubs. especially Motherwell Edited June 19, 2016 by RANGERRAB 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,241 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 What do these clubs want two home games v us and us only having one home game.I am seriously thinking of cancelling my CCC mandate so I don't have to spend a penny on the half wits. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aweebluesoandso 290 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) Scottish football is riven with petty jealously and hatred , as a result I don't want hear, see or talk about other clubs if i can help it, they are quite literally hating the game up here to death. I now only want to see Rangers play at Ibrox, i have no interest in giving my money to other clubs. It's sad but it is what it is, my only hope is my club can survive this death race, hopefully abandon ship somewhere sometime, before we go down with the sinking ship Edited June 19, 2016 by aweebluesoandso 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOUGH LUCK - frankly couldnt give a damn about these clubs. especially Motherwell Bearman is spot on. The statements from Thistle and Motherwell were nothing to do with us or 1872. Leave them to their own statements. What is it to do with 1872 to call on other club officials to change the game ? We ALL know what the real thrust here is - that they all told us they could do without our money when they jettisoned us in 2012 and now they (Thistle and Motherwell) are being hypocrites. But there is absolutely no need for us to jump on that, as it is plain for all to see. Tough luck indeed. But why the need to comment on it ?

CammyF 6,870 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I can see why 1872 responded and it was a decent enough statement but don't think anything in the Motherwell or Thistle statement that required a direct response from the club 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
