Basically we've had two AGMs since this deal was agreed, and haven't been told about it. It is quite dubious tbf, apparently we were supposed to put it out to tender and have clauses where people could match etc. Never happened, and this seems to have been pushed through in the background, albeit with a slight rejig because Castore own the Umbro licences.

Moreso, out of embarrassment. Regardless, it just shows that we can't get real control of retail, no matter how long it is since the club allowed Ashley in the door, about 13 years ago. Just another part of the Omnishambles. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand What is wrong with the Castore deal? I ask because I know nothing about it except that it lasts until 2030 and the actual manufacturer is Umbro. Are there better deals available? Is there provision to increase the royalties or whatever it is the Club gets out of it, in the event that Rangers win the Champions League in 2028? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
