    Dipshit <laugh><doh>

    Anyway, in what way does that alter the validity of the analogy? People are essentially advocating selling the same 'product' twice in different forms and not giving any money back to the first 'customer' who doesn't receive the 'product' he paid for. Whether that customer is a company or a domestic 'client' is irrelevant for the analogy to work.

    It's not the same product though is it?

    One gives you a seat in Ibrox to watch every home match of the season - Ticketus sell these

    One gives you a seat in Ibrox to watch a single match - Rangers FC sell these

    If no-one buys a season ticket then the Ticketus seats will be empty and Rangers FC can sell them as singles. get it?

    Yep, it wouldn't sit comfortably with me at all.

    I canny for minute believe the Ticketus deal is so weak that the seats they "own" could be legitimately resold. That would be a level of business stupidity so high it's in the realms of "they were begging for it, the dumb ****s" <laugh>

    Serves the ****ers right, 2000+% APR should really be banned, anyone who would sign up to that percentage for up to £1000 willingly doesn't have the mental capacity to decide on financial matters.

    The likes of Wonga and Manchester United should be illegal.

    God you're thick as pigshit at times Nev. It was suggested that Rangers should not sell season tickets (fully-fitted kitchens) but instead sell individual matchday tickets (cupboards and drawers). That way Ticketus, who had paid in advance for season tickets (fully-fitted kitchens), would not receive their product yet Rangers would be (mysteriously) able to keep their cash from the sale of essentially the same product in smaller 'chunks' - ie match day tickets (cupboards and drawers). Get it?

    Precisely. To be honest, if it's possible (whilst morally reprehensible <whistle>), as you say - they probably deserve it for being so fecking stupid.

    There would have to be guarantee's etc on it, like the honus to pay the money reverts to whoever the liable party is (this week it's whyte but with that **** it could be anyone who's responsible next week) should the club not meet expected season ticket sales for whatever reason.

    Either that or Ticketus have the most ******ed business model possible.

    aye but if we have new owners why should we sell season tickets if all the money goes to another company?

    unless there's all sorts of gaurantees attached to the deal I cant see a problem with doing it my way. <sinatra>

    I agree they do need regulated much better, if there was any credibility about this ****ehole of a town I'm faced with I'd have gone to a loanshark knowing fine well i wouldn't need to pay such absurd interest.

    They say they are regulated and they are fair but its all a load of ****e really.
