Generic Sevco / Rangers meltdown thread

We reduced Sevco's allocation last season, and will hopefully do so to both cheeks this year.

Leaving aside the hyperbolic statement from Sevco, was there much dialogue between the clubs?

Going by Celtic's statement then no and that's what pissed Celtic off. Seems this was a unilateral decision by Sir Glib and Shameless, probably to grab some extra season ticket money now......

I meant when we cut Sevco's allocation, but you're right that there should always be a dialogue first regardless of the clubs involved.

Poorly worded by me, but between us we've clarified what I was trying to say.

Sevco getting bent over by the courts and Mike Ashley again

Looks like Ashley used expensive silks and the the Rangers are coughing up to cover it.

Pleasing.

Love the last line....

"Mr Justice Phillips has been told the boycott is over."



... at which point His Lordship burst into song...... "The boycott's over, why don't you go home?"

£185k for their legal fees and being told to pick up the vast majority of Sports Direct £350k costs 😂😂

Just checked ... it is.

[ancient hibee]

So after paying Ashley £3M not to go away they have to pay his lawyers £500K and allow Ashley to keep selling Rangers strips.When is Park going to realise that King is an expensive liability.

[HoboHarry]

If Sevco settled last week I imagine that is the reason that the deal for the Man City defender fell through. They first said he failed a medical then SG stated they couldn't agree terms. Lol all the money just disappeared into Ashley's pocket, bwahahahahahaha............ Wonder how Sir Cumference Traynor will spin this one......

[JeMeSouviens]

What they need now is an *extremely* staunch STATEMENT!

[RyeSloan]

Brilliant so they paid £3m to be allowed to sell mugs n pens and then paid half a million more in lawyers fees to find out that they had paid £3m to be allowed to sell mugs n pens!

Half a mill is painful enough but the loss of the Hummel shirt deal must put a nice wee dent into their future revenue forecasts as well. Forecasts that already assumed an over spend and required a rights issue.

Of course the share issue can’t proceed either due to the unfinished business brought about by the pesky ToP.

So all in all it’s looking pretty encouraging over Ibrox way . And you do have to wonder just how long this pantomime can continue before it collapses on itself once more.

Don't think they have lost the Hummel deal? It's about where the shirts are sold I thought? #toomuchinfotokeepup

[Smartie]

The European games will have given them a huge boost on several levels - on-pitch morale and big funds.

When they are knocked out of Europe there will be a lot of gnashing and wailing. When they have their first domestic bad results under Gerrard they will go to pieces and when it dawns on them that they won't be challenging Celtic they will implode.

Yeah it's not so much the Hummel deal collapsing, as sales of Hummel shirts are likely to nosedive now as the Gers fans love nothing more than a Mike Ashley Boycott.

They'd rather buy hookie strips made in Turkey rather than buy genuine tops in Sports Direct.

Don't think Hummel will be too pleased tonight...sold a pup by the Glib/Shameless Liar.

Yeah but if its SD that will be selling them how many shirts will actually be sold?

Not sure I share your confidence but I certainly hope you are right.......

And there is no chance JD sports or anyone else will ever bid for the Sevco deal again. Mike now has them forever. Lovely.

That’s the big one!!
After rousing the rangers fans into a frenzy of hate towards Mike Ashley,the rangers board now have to kiss his ass
I wonder if the penny will drop with the fans regarding the £3mill fanfare pay off?
Do you think they will now work out,it was for costing SD money via club statements?
Cant wait for the next club statement

Ashley has played a blinder here: Sevco/King will now have to tell the neanderthal bigots that SD are great ("a valued and trusted partner", "a high quality retail operation" etc) and encourage them to buy the official merchandise there.

One wonders if Hummel and JD Sports might have a legal case here.

They've got to have suffered some serious brand image and therefore reputational damage being associated with such a toxic brand as sevco, never mind the unsellable shirts?

Ashley himself could be seen in a bad light here.

Oh wait a minute.

In my eyes their image was tarnished the minute they agreed to produce an orange shirt for those mutants So they've made their Bed and now they can lie in it
More full them for not doing due diligence on Kings track record Or maybe they consulted the Authorities that be here that had already carried out thier due Diligence , and passed him as Fit and Proper or whatever the phrase is

I concur.

They're all in the same cesspit, just for slightly different reasons.
