topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Is clubs letting their season ticket holding supporters in for free not a good thing?. If the club are willing to pay for it themselves, where's the problem?. If they were willing to pay for it that wouldn't be an issue. The problem is whether the match is theirs to give away or whether they're doing it at everybody else's expense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually haven't a scooby why anyone objects to this. My take? We have utterly fucked up in pretty-much every way this season and this is the least that 'the board' can do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Rangers letting their fans in free and paying the difference = nice gesture to fans Equally = insanity given financial position It's probably a calculated risk. They didn't stand to make huge sums from the games, given how money had to be distributed anyway. I'm guessing they figure that the most important thing financially, is promotion. Full houses at Ibrox can help bring that about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Surely the one thing we can all agree on (after reading a couple of the posts above), is that even allowing for a nice tan in those particular photos, the Cockwomble has the most punchable pus' in football. No mean feat, in a country where Scott Brown plays football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Yet you feel they are better than your team Seriously, why do you find this difficult? The suggestion that Rangers are stronger than Queens and have better players, is not remotely incompatible with the suggestion that Rangers have underachieved badly and that promotion for them would not represent a particularly impressive achievement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No8. Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Lol. Just on the wind up then. Fair enough. But just in case you try to claim I'm avoiding your (ridiculously loaded) question: Sevco should not have been allowed entry to the league at all. Anything that was done that resulted in them actually being in the league is obviously a help and not a hindrance - a child should be able to see that. I know that doesn't sit well with your need to be a victim so I don't expect you to admit it, but really, at this stage, it's like claiming the sky is green - only lunatics and vested interests will agree with you. Of all the complete bollocks posted by diddies that has to be about the most bollocks in one post.Well done you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akredz Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 So, if it's all about the fans, I'm assuming these clubs will be letting their fans into next season's cup games for free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 FWIW I am firmly in agreement with the Rangers fans on this a Season ticket should cover every home match in a league season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemjsim Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Season Books are for League games. Everything else should be discounted for book holders but isn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Although I like what Rangers are doing for their fans the season book is always priced on 18 home games. The maths is worked out that way. Could you imagine in June your team saying we priced your season book on 21 matches? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Without the supporters that go week in week out to support their team, football clubs would not survive.

blueone Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 FWIW I am firmly in agreement with the Rangers fans on this a Season ticket should cover every home match in a league season. Season Books are for League games. Everything else should be discounted for book holders but isn't. Fairly sure our season tickets have always included any play off games since they started. Play off games are viewed as an extension to the league season. We have a separate "League and Cup" season ticket which costs more but is a gamble depending on cup draws although still includes play offs. Didn't know there was any rules on it but maybe it's to do with this splitting of gate receipts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strichener Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 For someone as pedantic about language as you are, I fail to see what the issue is here. Can you tell the difference betweeen the following statements? "Every home league match in the season" and "every home match in a league season". I would suggest that keep away from the gin. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope because I know that football seasons don't start and stop with league competitions. A wee bit of Mother's Ruin won't improve your brain but may keep you away from the keyboard for a wee while.
