All Members will be sent a formal notification containing an Agenda, and a set of independently audited Trust Accounts, by post at least 14 days in advance, and the meeting will only be open to Members who have paid their subscriptions for 2006/07, upon production of their membership cards.

If any current member has any questions or motions they'd like to raise in advance of the meeting please contact us through the site. RST Members can also join the superbly revamped club via the membership forms handed out on the day. With an exciting season ahead, where better to enjoy a refreshing pre-match drink, tasty food, or great post match celebrations, than the Wee club. The Club has been home to the Rangers Supporters Association since 1972 and a favourite meeting place for many fans on their way to the game.

As well as our upcoming high-profile advertising campaign we intend to distribute 51,000 'GerSave' brochures at next week's match. This is where YOU come in as we need help to supply every seat in the stadium with a brochure. If you turn up and help on the set-up days (times to be confirmed) you will automatically be entered into a special raffle. This will give 2 people the chance to win individual hospitality packages for the game. The match is sure to be a sell-out so this is your opportunity not only to get a ticket but to enjoy our first home European match of the season in 5* comfort. To be in with a chance of winning one of these superb packages keep an eye on this site for comfirmation of what days and times we will be setting up the brochure distribution. If you have any questions about this matter please contact us through the site. 26 September 2006 As revealed last week, the Rangers Supporters Trust will be sponsoring the UEFA Cup return leg against Molde FC at Ibrox on Thursday 28th September. Part of the sponsorship has meant that we will be attaching a 'Gersave' booklet to every seat in Ibrox for the game, and as such will be looking for as much assistance as possible to help make this happen. We will be looking for people to come into Ibrox at 10am tomorrow (Wednesday 27/09/06) and help ensure each seat in the stadium will have a booklet. This will be a pivotal moment in launching Gersave awareness and thus the Trusts' existence. Therefore we are looking for everyone to help out wherever possible. Even if you are only able to help out for a couple of hours, every little bit helps and would be greatly appreciated. If you turn up and help on the set-up times you will automatically be entered into a special raffle. This will give 2 people the chance to win individual hospitality packages for the game. The match is sure to be a sell-out so this is your opportunity not only to get a ticket but to enjoy our first home European match of the season in 5* comfort. To find out more please email joanne@rangerssupporterstrust.co.uk or contact us through the site form. 26 September 2006 Sadly the placing of Trust brochures on the seats at Ibrox has had to be postponed as the club’s lawyers consider whether or not distribution inside Ibrox could be construed as the club promoting, as opposed to facilitating, sales of it’s own shares. The club’s lawyers have raised concerns over whether the leaflet could be deemed to be a public offer of securities by the club. Clearly, since the inception of the scheme the Trust has taken careful legal advice in order to address such issues, at considerable cost, and is confident that things will be sorted out. However, as the Trust was only informed today of these legal concerns, the placing of brochures inside Ibrox has had to be postponed for the time being. 28 September 2006 As part of our launch of 'GerSave', the scheme will now be advertised during the popular Real Radio phone-in; starting this Friday evening for one week. The show has listening figures of ~300,000 people over central Scotland (and online) so will be ideal in attracting new Trust members and 'Gersave' subscribers. Real Radio (Scotland's most listened to radio station) have been a great help in setting up a text service for interested listeners to use.
