Confusion as SFA appears lax on terms

1036

Is it really possible that Charles Green made a genuine oversight and believed that monies due to Rangers FC (IA) could be paid by a debtor to selective creditors in order to let his Newco gain access to the Scottish Football League?

Back in May, while Rangers FC (IA) were adamant they would continue in business, the SPL agreed to pay money due to the club directly to creditors.  The club subsequently failed to pay, or agree terms with, creditors and a creditor has asked BDO to liquidate them.  The lawyers have earned enough from this saga in recent months, they would be scrambling for Gratuitous Alienation cast studies if the SPL was to selectively pay football clubs.

It looks like Mr Green is tying himself in knots over the Newco/Oldco routine.  His attention to detail has the potential to become legendary, however, he is entitled to wonder why the SFA have allowed his Newco membership despite apparently not meeting agreed terms. I am sure the SFA president will be all over this issue like a rash, demanding clear and proper process is followed.

Or is the SFA president still the only man at Hampden who cannot participate in any of the important issues concerning Scottish football?

    Well done mate, great effort. The coin jar continues to grow.

    Petty nature of the TFOD loving press?

     

     

    The TFOD steal the ECWC in 72 and the papers report 70K view the cup being paraded around Ibrox.

     

     

    Cheap dig in the report has 60K at CP viewing the parade of the ECK in 67 which you mention.

     

     

    Are these crowd figures correct or is it the way things were in the 70s – the club had always to be seen as being smaller than the TFOD.

     

     

    As you might guess my memory is struggling with stuff 40 years old consequently are these figures correct, am I havering and does anyone remember this report?

     

     

    Has this subject been reported in similar terms more recently?

    Forgot about Eddi– yip she is a great gig… as is wee Dougie McLean.

     

     

    Also John Prine.

     

     

    Re the Big Day for the city of culture– was that the day when we saw Natalie Merchant, Michael Stipe and Billy Bragg all play together down at the Clydeside?

     

     

    Singing Hello in there by John Prine?

  9. Celtic have asked about Birmingham striker Nikola Zigic on loan but can’t cover his wages.

     

    Real Mallorca are still keen to sign the giant frontman who cost £6million from Valencia.

     

    Zigic remains on a reported £60,000-a-week deal at the Championship club.

    July August 1986, it was when I was 19. Mrs Doc wasn’t even Mrs Doc then.

     

    The Waterboys singing The Westrward Wind was a particular highlight.

     

    By 1996 junior Doc was on the way. Simple Minds may well have played Ibrox more than once it seems.

     

     

    Yes 86 – was obviously just trying to shave a decade off my age there……sorry

  12. gordybhoy

     

     

    Not seen the Docs for about 8 years now. Bloody miss that! The Xmas gigs at the Barras were brilliant! Mental as well – but in a good way!

     

     

    HH!!

    The Hobbit in three films, why? the book is not that long, Mr Jackson overkill ala King Kong?

     

    The Lord of the Rings films were unequaled, but his film making has gone down hill since then.

  14. Jock Tamson,

     

    i am sure the Big Day was where Sheena Easton was booed off at

     

    Glasgow Green for not being sure if she was Scottish or American

    jocktamson: Saw Michael Stipe at the Clyde. Started off at George Square and wandered around, but didn’t do the Green in the evening – just watched it on telly.

    can’t confirm or deny. that day i was… in the spirit of things. i just remember i was determined to see eddi reader and she didn’t disappoint.

     

     

    link from that gig…

     

     

    big country, who played that night were always good. but at the barras, they were brilliant.

     

     

    stuart adamson was a massively underrated guitarist.

  22. Shinty leading the way

     

     

    @worldofshinty: Kingussie and Glenurquhart to contest rearranged Sutherland Cup Final. Newtonmore stripped of title #shinty

     

     

    Above is what happens in properly organised sports in Scotland

     

     

    The Sutherland cup is a prestigious trophy contested among the junior (reserve )teams in Scotland

     

    There are simple rules to follow

     

    If you play 3 or 4 games for your first team you are unable to play in cup matches at junior level

     

     

     

    Newtonmore fielded a player who had played 8 first team games

     

    He scored in the semi final win against glenurquhart and again in the final win against Kingussie

     

     

    Shinty has a progressive and efficient board who are not afraid to apply the laws of the game

  23. Bloke109,

     

    seems like there may have been 2 nights played,i may be wrong,

     

    In Tua Nua definetely played the night i was there,

     

    I saw REM a few years ago in a tent on Glasgow Green,good night it was

     

    for such a strange venue

  24. Tallybhoy

     

     

    Young Greenock band – The Cuban Heels, somewhere in Glasgow early 80s (?).

     

    ————————————————————

     

     

    i think… the cuban heels formed out of a band that split up called “johnny and the self abusers.”

     

     

    half of them formed “the cuban heels”

     

     

    the other half formed “simple minds”

     

     

    they split about 77/78. so they may well have still been gigging in the 80s.
