betting and online lottery products to the Club and its many loyal supporters. 
The Rangers Online Lottery will be run by The Weather Lottery under its newly 
launched 'www.fclotto.co.uk' brand, which has been specially designed for the 
football market.  Furthermore, the online gaming package created by The Weather 
Lottery under the brand 'www.FCBetz.com' will be marketed to the Club's fans. 
www.FCBetz.com was launched on 6 August 2010 to expand and compliment the 
services offered to The Weather Lottery's existing clientele and acquire new

football club partnership agreement in as many weeks, following the signings of 
Coventry City, Derby County, Sheffield Wednesday, Leicester City and 
Middlesbrough. Following this agreement, The Weather Lottery has added 
significantly to its available market of players for the Company's 'Sunshine 
Lottery' and 'Lightening Lottery' products. 
 
Commenting on today's announcement, Chairman Lord Razzall, CBE said: 
 
"We are very excited by this contract with Rangers. They hold an important 
position as a revered sporting institution both nationally and internationally. 
They are one of the two giants of Scottish football and their importance extends 
well beyond Scotland. They are regular participants in the "blue-ribbon" event 
of European Football, the Champions League." 
 
CEO Keith Millhench Commented: 
 
"The combined www.FCBetz.com and www.fclotto.co.uk products market partners' fan 
clubs, season ticket holders of Coventry City, Derby County, Leicester City, 
Sheffield Wednesday, Middlesbrough and now Rangers, plus their databases and 
gives The Weather Lottery exposure to a significant potential user base. 
 
"The Board believes that this further expansion will create additional revenues 
for the Company. Negotiations are continuing with several other major football 
clubs and other societies. The Board expects to make further announcements 
shortly in accordance with the AIM Rules."
