Going by the interview with 4 lads it's not just a slice of the profits. "74% of all revenue" goes to Rangers.
Nope...sorry if levy have clients like Chelsea, Spurs etc I'm wanting us to go down the best experience possible. Not ronnie from the Barras with a few ice buckets full of bud and a firestick for the football. Need to market the club properly and expand the club and make use of third party ventures and improve everything we have at the club
Personally I don't actually care about who sponsors us, so long as they pay the rate we want.
Be a disaster if we brought it in house. And it's not going to happen anyway.
Harsh to pin that on him tbf as he would've only presented it to the board & then it would be up to them to sign off on it.
The food, drinks and service in the sky lounge is excellent.
Respectfully i disagree with pretty much all of your points there.
Fair point.
Doubt he’d respond with the same raw answer we need on the issue as the hotdogs themselves would suggest.
And yet, they still agreed to it..
We started on a low position so he had done well to build from that position
My Gers has certainly come in for a lot of criticism and that’s hardly a surprise. There certainly seems a cack handed approach to ticketing etc. Having said that I noticed on another thread someone complaining about attempting to get to gold. As a 60 something I’m aware that tickets for bigger marches has always been an issue. Supporters clubs who take tickets for every match should always be rewarded. Unfortunately as the club increases revenue and richer bears in hospitality pay big bucks they expect tickets due to how much they put in. Families who buy tickets strips my Gers and everything else probably support our club more than anyone when you consider how much of their disposable income goes to Rangers. Been there myself when I was younger so I completely get it. It’s a complete no win situation. Back on topic whoever recruited Bisgrove undoubtedly helped our finances immensely and that is his job description. Without those millions we would be in financial difficulties with little chance of competing with the unwashed from the east end.
There definately a balance to be had with it all especially around who gets tickets the more hospitality do the less normal fab does the atmosphere will suffer
100% take the Union Bears out and our ground would be like Man City.
Assume you have never presented to a board, their job isn't to get involved in the minutia of your report, but to assume you are recommending based on the factors I mentioned in my post. That's why they employ 'experts' on high salaries.
I’ve done it loads of times. If it was such a formality as you infer, then there would be little point in presenting. No doubt he would have put the case across, but ultimately it would be Robertson giving approval.
No idea why we don't have vending machines or self serve drinks stations in the concourses. Would save time and increase spending.
And you think if your proposal had caused reputational damage the board would assume responsibility? I know in my case I would have and rightly so as the person who had prepared the proposal and made informed recommendations.
The reality is you have no idea what was in the report from Bisgrove so your argument is based on total assumption.
Could say the same for all the praise he gets for the money he has brought in, we should heap that on the board too, no? Can't really have it both ways.
Are you involved in hospitality?
Naw i just eat out loads
Not really as Bisgrove finds the opportunities and presents them to the board. Up to board to accept or reject based on information provided by Bisgrove. If they get it wrong it falls on them provided Bisgrove has given them the facts but I don’t think it then follows that they should get the credit for all the opportunities identified and presented by Bisgrove that they say yes to
The food in Club72 has improved massively and I agree with @LoganBear, there wasn't much wrong with the offering at the OF game.
Sport Mongo paid us.
