First thing I noticed when they posted the youth team today.
Err I was joking?Sorry, but dignified silence is in regards to media and refereeing, not keeping fans updated due to legal reasons and for not publically telling the world (I.e. SD) everything is not dignified silence ffs. It makes no sense.
What legal case?What part of "cant comment on ongoing legal cases " do people not understand?
That was a made up statement...by you guessed it a smelly diseased fanHummel released a statement on Sunday saying the deal was over, Rangers lied and it was going to Court . More unnecessary shite by our crowd of amateurs
What legal case?
Rangers can at least confirm whether there is a legal case with Elite/Hummel and leabe it at that.......
The usual shite though, say nothing maybe no one will notice......
Jesus %^*& public and Twitter in the same sentence.But surley changing the wording on twitter is going public?
Like changing your relationship status ffsJesus %^*& public and Twitter in the same sentence.
Appreciate that, will sleep at night now.Not sure this is the correct use of the phrase, but you do like saying it so carry on.
No they didn't..........Hummel released a statement on Sunday saying the deal was over, Rangers lied and it was going to Court . More unnecessary shite by our crowd of amateurs
Or the contract only involved links to the men’s team??The fact it has been removed today tells us all we need to know.
The contract/relationship with Hummell is broken.
So we can all expect yet more litigation.
The name of the training centre is the name of the training centre regardless.Or the contract only involved links to the men’s team??

It's staggering the time and effort some of them go to in concoting these statements and scenarios. Quite sad really.That was a made up statement...by you guessed it a smelly diseased fan
Can you provide a link to or a screenshot of this statement?

Hummel UK and The Elite Group issued a statement today noting they were rescinding their agreement with Rangers FC [sic.] with immediate effect, “due to the club being in material breach of contract.” They add that they have commenced legal proceedings against the club.
The statement reads:
“Hummel UK & The Elite Group was proud to have entered into a supplier agreement with Rangers Football Club in good faith in March 2018. We saw this as an opportunity to work together for the benefit of the club, its supporters and the Hummel brand.
“However, despite being given warranties and assurances by the Rangers board that the club was free to enter into their arrangement, it transpired that Rangers had previously signed a conflicting agreement with a third party.
“The club has therefore been unable to fulfil its obligations to Hummel & The Elite Group, which would have included the creation of a Hummel branded area within the Ibrox Megastore, along with crucial marketing activity such as perimeter advertising, player activations, and promotion on the Rangers FC website.
“Hummel UK & The Elite Group has nonetheless made payments to Rangers totalling c. £2.5m and supplied kit worth approximately £1m. Despite doing all of this in good faith, we are now facing some public statements from Rangers which are not correct.
“We have been unable to find a way forward despite making repeated efforts to reach out to the club. It is with regret that we have therefore rescinded our agreement with Rangers FC with immediate effect, due to the club being in material breach of contract.
“We remain willing to try and resolve matters with Rangers FC on an amicable basis. Contrary to reports, Rangers is not owed any further payments from Hummel UK & The Elite Group at this time and we are disappointed by Rangers’ decision to commence legal proceedings in respect of these issues. Those proceedings will not result in any payment to Rangers and are an unwelcome and unnecessary distraction for the club, its fans and Hummel.
“We have now begun our own legal proceedings against Rangers which we are very confident will result in a positive outcome so we can all move forward.”
This afternoon, Newco Rangers online store’s is selling Puma produced replica shirts from the 2017-18 season.
Next week, I plan to discuss financial matters with significant consequences for Newco. They should not get too excited about the prospect of two Scottish entrants to the Champions League in 2021.
Also, I have had the statement since before 10:00 this morning (been in meetings since). Curious that it has not been carried by the mainstreams.

Although we don't know the details, I think Hummel are being short-sighted here.
The scale and the exposure associated with landing a tier one contract like Rangers must have been a good thing for them.
Their legal advice might have been that we're not worth the hassle but I think they're missing a trick.
They really could have established a long and profitable relationship with Rangers.

I fully expect Sports Direct to be our retail partner next season.Which means not a single penny from me q
%^*& sake we are now using CQN as a source on here.
Yes it’s very curious that no other outlet than CQN has picked this story up. Not even anything on Hummel’s own website. Curious indeed.
Given all the troubles and litigation.... Are we in danger of struggling to get a decent new kit deal?
The very fact that the release mentions Newco Rangers makes me think it’s a Paed fc fan with too much tim on his hands,
If they’re wasting their time trying to wind us up it’s kerping them away from the kindergartens and nurseries of their locale.
Sleep at night knowing you are using the phrase dignified silence in completely the wrong context.Appreciate that, will sleep at night now.
Big influx since Sunday.Seem to be a lot of " new members " commenting Mmmm

Aye ok Mr New MemberHummel released a statement on Sunday saying the deal was over, Rangers lied and it was going to Court . More unnecessary shite by our crowd of amateurs
Probably by the account you've quotedThat was a made up statement...by you guessed it a smelly diseased fan
Big influx since Sunday.
YesDoes Ashley still have the option to match any kit deal that we can get on the open market?
Again it was renegotiate by the current lot and they have made an even bigger arse of it.It feels like we'll never have a normal kit manufacturer relationship ever again.
The spivs and crooks who signed the Sports Direct contracts should be sued. Surely they can be shown not to have acted in the best interests of Rangers?
Again? Honestly, I have no idea why you're determined to ensure that those weasel words have some standing.Sleep at night knowing you are using the phrase dignified silence in completely the wrong context.
They don't need to and won't go public on every legal wrangle but anyone with any common sense can see the relationsship/contract with Hummell is broken.
