Another legal claim, this time for £1.7m, has been sent to Ibrox after the Tribute Act pulled out of the Sydney Super Cup.
Back in March Celtic and their city business partners separately announced that they’d be playing each other in the Australian city as the close ties between the two clubs were further cemented.
At the recent Celtic AGM Michael Nicholson refused to answer a question over when his O** F*** partners were founded.
Supporters of both clubs were disgusted by the notion of the friendly taking place, after fan protests during matches the Ibrox side withdrew leaving Celtic to go it alone.
After being involved in lengthy negotiations to stage the match The Sun reports on the action being taken by the organisers for another Ibrox contract breach.
SYDNEY Super Cup promoters have filed legal action against Rangers for £1.7m in compensation after the Ibrox club backed out of matches including one against Celtic.
Sporting events promoters TEG Live Pty Ltd and Left Field Live Pty Ltd filed the claim against The Rangers FC in Federal Court on Friday.
They claim Rangers wrongfully terminated an agreement that stipulated the football club would play ‘friendly matches’ in Sydney against teams Celtic First and Western Sydney Wanderers in November.
The match between Rangers and Celtic would have been the first game between the fierce rivals to take place outside Scotland.
Court documents claim Rangers provided a 72-page guideline document to the promoters that the Old Firm wordmark, owned by both Rangers and Celtic, should be used throughout the marketing campaign to reflect its “commercial value and importance”.
Disagreements arose between March 1 and March 15 about the use of the wordmark on a proposed joint media release, an idea from promoters, which did not go ahead due to Celtic not agreeing to some of the wordmark use.
No doubt the claim will be vigorously/staunchly contested to protect the reputation of the club. Other event organisers are unlikely to be making any plans with the Tribute Act who have opted to stay at home during the World Cup break.
NEVER Honoured a Contract, NEVER paid a Creditor!! Fukin SCUM then, now & Forever!!
Who gives a toss, tribute act a perfect title.
How the fk can these bstrds keep abusing civil, criminal and natural law (decent standards).
Wee fkr White left his mark and its slowly burying the Huns.
The world sits quietly while the continually abuse systems.
Time for the Liquidisers to move in.

It’s about time the tribute act officially altered their name permanently to The Rangers Sued ! It will suit (no pun intended ) ,the whole world of business ,down to the ground ……..
