scotlad Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 5 hours ago, killiefaetheferry said: Yup. If the Huns aren't happy about displaying the League sponsor logo and fulfilling the deal, we should give them more money to keep them sweet? How about we dock them 3 points for the breach and suspend their license if it happens again? That's a good idea. Unfortunately, the last thing the football authorities in Scotland will do is put their foot down when one of the arse cheeks are having a tantrum about something. 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO its disrespectful to the supporters who pay their wages. It is! Heard reports of Diamond answering the door in a Celtic top while playing for Aberdeen.

It would be a disaster if we lost the sponsor. Notwithstanding that its an awful deal (have you seen the introduction fee?), doesn't the SPFL rules allow clubs with prior commercial contracts not to breach those contracts by having to displaying other sponsors? I'll check the rule later on. Plus these new sponsors will have had 10000 times the coverage in the press due to the spat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu101 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Rule 17 of the SPFL handbook: “That a Club shall not, other than in respect of a Commercial Contract relating to Radio Transmission or Transmission, be obliged to comply with this Rule I7 if to do so would result in that Club being in breach of a contractual obligation entered into prior to the Commercial Contract concerned being approved to be entered into by the Company the Clubs and each of them shall license and otherwise provide to the Company the use of such of their other rights, facilities and properties as may be required by the Company to enable the Company to enter into and/or fulfil its obligations under and in terms of Commercial Contracts entered or to be entered into by the Company.” Interestingly, I cant see anything in the handbook that would mean Rangers have to actually disclose the contract with Parks lot (which contract would probably be confidential anyway).

Not listed as one of their corporate or associate partners. So the big question remains - which 'contract' is it that precludes delivering the Cinch requirements? Apparently they've refused to reveal this information to the SPFL. This has Douglas Parkwritten all over it 😂. That's my tuppence worth - no actual contract with an actual sponsor, just that the owner doesn't want to publicise a competitor to his own business interests.

We have an 'official chocolate partner' FFS The way round this would be for Rangers to release a decacted version of the contract. But i think they are so sick of the missmanagment, they see this as a way to oust Doncaster, by highlighting his further mismanagemet.

vanderark14 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I love how the narrative of this has changed from rangers having a conflict with one of their sponsors to being pissed off with Doncaster and the deal being shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a thread on here about Scottish pundits, he can be added to the morons list.

kumnio Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 £1.6 million per season to cover 4 leagues is utterly comical anyway. That works out, that works out an average of £38’000 for 42 clubs, I know it won’t be split like that, but it shows what an absolute pittance the deal is worth. Once the bigot brothers get their usual vast majority, the other clubs will get a figure that’s insignificant. While Rangers are pathetic as per usual, and I hope they get shafted in arbitration, it’s time that Doncaster and his cabal of cunts get told to exit straight away.
