Given how regularly the bheasts can turn a profit and sell players for big fees, while not making much of a dent in Europe, serious questions need to be asked of those running the show at Ibrox.

Recovering from oblivion tbh.

It’s like a person being bankrupt, living on the street, then trying to build the best house in the street with their first wage.

We’ve not sold assets very well until January. I worry we’ll lose more prized possessions for nothing next summer as well / which royally fucks us.

Yes, our transfer situation is extremely concerning. We need people in that know what they’re doing. Being a Rangers fan is not enough.

That would be a good point, for another thread.
 
Premier Sports know that Rangers and the Scum fans will pay up to see their games so they dont need to offer much in prize money.
If we meet them in a round then that alone will give Premier Sports a nice pay day.

That can easily be reversed. Despite all of the financial benefits gained by the yahoos, we're still in touch with them and indeed have surpassed anything they've done in Europe in the past two decades.

I keep reading on here how great their model is. It appears they are spending a fortune each Summer to stand still.

PS - Was thinking a bit more up market than a tenner a head team, like we have seen in recent years with Real Madrid or one of the english teams.

Tickets, TV, Merch and sponsor money we could rake in more than £350k in the one game never mind playing in a full compitition to a final.

Would rather save the minutes in the legs for what ever european compitition we are playing in.

Play the B team in this competition??

Absolutely. Just making a point about what an absolute pittance it is
 
Saps the life out of me when I read any article and get to those two words, 'neil doncaster'...sigh.
 
Exactly why i don't really care much for the domestic cups

Scottish cup isn't more more.

Should always be priority 3 and 4 for us.

I hear you pal, it’s embarrassing that these pricks will sell what we have for such a pittance.

This competition we should be down grading on on footballing priority list to bloodng players and giving boys a run out who haven’t featured much in the main games.

Save the 11 for the games that count
 
Rangers will have to ask Cinch if we have permission to play in this competition. They might not want us advertising for Premier Sport.
 
You know we're run by buffoons when £2.1m actually is some sort of ground breaking figure. Peanuts in todays modern game.
 
I assume all those critical of the prize money have checked out what prize money is available in the countries of similar population?
We are tiny in comparrison to the major leagues of Europe. I suspect the prize money on offer will be equal to or greater than the prize money for the equivelent trophy in say Denmark, Finland, Norway, Ireland, Slovakia, Bosnia etc.

It was announced with such pride, but the amount just shows how ridiculously tin pot those running our game are. £2m in total. Useless.
