As you may have read Rangers are in court over 300k "owed" to the provider of the stadium wifi system.
What's interesting me here is that Rangers claim breach of contract and the supplier dispute this. The system is only capable of 10k simultaneous connections rather than the 50k Rangers claim was contracted - the supplier disputes the 50k figure and claims that Rangers were aware of the lower capacity.
Now, I haven't seen the contracts etc, but if you read here:

and this

The supplier's statement includes claim:
"The new set-up will remove at a stroke the connectivity problems of 3G in high-density areas and allow 50,000+ supporters access to club competitions, merchandising, Rangers media, forthcoming events and more fan/club interactive engagement."
I would say that 10k doesn't live up to the published claim. I wonder if the same figure was in the contract.
