Gary Toner Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I nearly cracked up last night and called Setanta when the signal came through for Celtic TV before the Rangers one, shouting i didn't subscribe to this pish and so on. Then i read that you get the other station as part of the deal seems pretty strange, i wonder if this is how they are going to reach their trigger levels by counting the entire subs. for both channels and not just individualy.

TM Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Setanta know they wont reach the trigger level of 89,000 subscribers because of the way they've set this system up It shouldnt be a minimum contract channel, the Rangers/Celtic channels are only on for about 6hrs a night (at the moment of course) and the SPL Live/Rangers/Celtic TV should be on a "buy whenever you want" basis, ie if you see Setanta are showing 4 good games in the month of October, then you should be able to subscribe for that time, then you can cancel it when it's up or even if you want to buy it for one game, that should be available as well - I bet they'd break even easily with that sort of scheme. The Rangers/Celtic channels should be the same idea, you can try it for a month to see if you like it and if you dont, you shouldnt have to pay for 12 months in advance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Toner Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> Rangers have taken Liverpool defender Gregory Vignal on trial. The 23-year-old Frenchman does not feature in new Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez' plans. Vignal spent the second half of last season on loan at Espanyol and has failed to win a regular place at Liverpool since arriving in 2000. But the left-back, who will spend the next few days at Rangers' Murray Park, does have Premiership and Champions League experience. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powlay Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> LIVERPOOL left back Gregory Vignal has joined Rangers on trial and the 23-year-old Frenchman could even play some part against Tottenham at Ibrox this evening. Vignal, who is just under 6ft, has made 20 first-team appearances since joining the Anfield club from Montpellier in September 2000 – including Champions League games against Dortmund, Dynamo Kiev, Spartak Moscow and Boavista and English Premiership games against Everton, Newcastle and Spurs. However, former boss Gerard Houllier farmed him out to Rennes then Espanyol last season in a bid to gain vital top team experience. Alex McLeish and his coaching staff will run the rule over the pacey defender at Murray Park over the next few days and he could bag some game time on the hallowed turf this evening and the Newcastle tournament at St James’ Park this weekend. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vidmar Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Was'nt at the game as i cba forking our extra money after paying £390 for a season ticket :/ but heres a match report <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> Spurs' Barclays Premiership preparation appeared to have been dealt a major blow when Robbie Keane was stretchered off during the 2-0 defeat at Rangers. Republic of Ireland international Keane was hurt when Marvin Andrews slid in to block a 27th-minute shot and medics needed to strap up his damaged right leg before carrying him away for treatment. Rangers had already taken the lead by this point through Nacho Novo, who took advantage of a slip by Anthony Gardner to sprint clear and fire past Paul Robinson. Fellow new signing Dado Prso made it 2-0 in first-half stoppage-time after a touchline error by Stephen Carr had allowed Peter Lovenkrands to make an equally speedy beeline for the box and set up the Croatian for a tap-in at the back post. The second half was not as painful for the Londoners but there was no disguising they were well beaten by a Rangers side intent on wrestling the title back out of Celtic's grasp. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam F Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Cheers, wanted a decent match report as the spurs website reports are never that accurate.

Vidmar Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 NEW BOYS ON THE MARK ONCE AGAIN Rangers 2 (Novo 24, Prso 45) Tottenham Hotspur 0 Attendance 35,750 Rangers made it four wins out of four with a 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur at Ibrox tonight thanks to goals from the new striking duo of Nacho Novo and Dado Prso. There was a healthy 35,750 attendance (including a strong travelling support) to welcome the home side who fielded five new signings in the starting line-up, and who also named French full-back Gregory Vignal from Liverpool on the substitute’s bench. Rangers wore their new outfit of red shirts, navy blue shorts and black socks. Prso almost brought the house down in nineteen minutes with a flashing header from a Paulo Vanoli corner that goalkeeper Paul Robinson turned over. Five minutes later the opening goal duly arrived when a long ball from Fernando Ricksen eluded Anthony Gardiner releasing Novo through on goal. The Spaniard, rapidly becoming a hero with the Light Blue legions, expertly found the net despite the acute angle. Spurs suffered a serious injury blow in 29 minutes when Robbie Keane was stretchered off after causing himself some damage whilst shooting for goal – his effort being blocked by Marvin Andrews. Keane had been booed throughout his brief appearance, presumably because of his Irish Republic connections, but he did receive a sympathetic round of applause as he departed the field. New Ibrox Captain Stefan Klos had to be on his guard eight minutes later when he held a curling twenty-yard effort from Germaine Defoe from a Rohan Ricketts pass. Rangers had the bulk of the pressure however – Robinson defying Peter Lovenkrands from a Chris Burke free-kick in forty minutes. The Danish forward twice had headers blocked – firstly by the goalkeeper then when Gardiner cleared off the line. The second goal duly arrived on the stroke of half-time however when Lovenkrands skinned Stephen Carr wide on the left before crossing for Prso to net from close range. Gregory Vignal replaced Paulo Vanoli at the interval. Novo almost made it 3-0 five minutes into the second-half when he shot over from a Lovenkrands pass, then on the hour saw his volley from a Burke corner blocked. Both Novo and Prso received standing ovations when they were substituted by Shota Arveladze and Steven Thompson respectively. The one sour note of the evening came in 72 minutes when Germaine Defoe was yellow-carded for a body-check on Chris Burke, but the youngster almost had the last laugh ten minutes later with a solo run and chip that drifted just over. It would not be Rangers without an injury scare however – Lovenkrands suffering an ankle knock in 89 minutes, being replaced by Maurice Ross. The final whistle brought a satisfactory evening to a conclusion, with Nacho Novo name as ‘Man of the Match’. RANGERS Klos; Ricksen (Hutton 82), Vanoli (Vignal 45); Boumsong, Andrews, A.
