ewerk 30766 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Rangers have rejected his resignation as they'd have to pay him 12 months salary if they did. How does that work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17364 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Apparently he said either give me another year or pay me my contract up (12 month rolling?). Surprise surprise Ashley isn't keen to cough up the loot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10900 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Can't see it coming to anything. The threat of Rangers dissolution is scary enough to bend them into submission.

Howay 12496 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I dunno, it's within their rules to fine him up to £10,000. Then he'll bring Kinnear in to manage the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 @@ewerk can you tell me if I'm being daft making an assumption based on these figures? Keep hearing that the outsourcing of catering and retail is what accounts for the reduction in Matchday and Commercial incomes. I've attempted to quantify the difference. 99% of the wage bill is playing staff so removing that from the equation and removing TV income as well, I think Ashley has driven revenue down £16.3m but only driven costs down £8.9m. So the changes implemented have cost the club £7.4m a year. And the vast majority of that isn't from Matchday (cheaper tickets etc) but from commercial (Sports Direct handed the retail wing). What have I missed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30766 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) I'm far too fucked with the flu to give any sort of meaningful analysis but I would say that the matchday revenue should probably be taken on a per game basis. I believe we played 31 home games in 06/07 compared to 26 home games in 12/13. On a per game basis the matchday revenue per home game has remained pretty much stagnant over the six years, with the argument that due to the outsourcing it should be more profitable. The downturn in commercial revenue I'd imagine could largely be down to the fact that we aren't as attractive as an option as we were previously. Since 2007 we simply haven't been as successful on the field as we were in the first half of the decade and that means that sponsors and kit manufacturers aren't going crazy to outbid each other to the rights for our shirts. The question is how much was that previous success costing us? Not only in expenses but in wages and transfer fees. We could spend £250m in January and we'd likely see an increase in commercial revenue over the next few years but would it outway the costs? Without a breakdown of what is included under each of the headings it's difficult to draw too many strong conclusions except that those revenue figures have matched our ambition and largely our onfield performances.

Happy Face 29 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Cheers. The club have gone from 438 admin staff in 2007 to 41 in 2013 as well so maybe leaving out wages isn't really fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5236 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Is that going to preclude us from playing in Europe then? Surely the League would have to take some issue with that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17364 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Thing is for a lot of gers supporters he represents the end of their club as they know it. They've always had "Rangers people" involved at the top of the club. I think it's a bit naive to think that after going under with them in control that its a good idea to just go back to that model. I wonder how much it would cost to regularly get them winning the league then 3 qualifiers for the champions league?...there's some comparatively vpoor sides get through every year to the group stages...
