The core essence of Duff and Phelps protests at the SFA judicial panel punishment handed out this week, as they state, is that: “in our opinion do the panel fail to have properly apportioned culpability between the Club and Craig Whyte”.
Yesterday we found out the truth about how Duff and Phelps really think about apportioning culpability between a company and a director.
The Lawyer magazine yesterday reported:
“The administrators are suing Collyer Bristow and Whyte’s takeover vehicle the Rangers FC Group for at least £25m in damages. The firm is accused of conspiracy, breach of undertaking, negligence and breach of trust, with Withey – who acted as the club’s company secretary – complicit in the allegations.”
The Lawyer goes on to say that Mark Phillips, QC, acting on behalf of Duff and Phelps, “told the court that there was no evidence anyone else at Collyer Bristow was involved, but that as Withey had authority to act for the firm, it was liable for the losses flowing from his “conspiracy”.
Get this clear; in the opinion of Duff and Phelps QC, as Withey had authority to act for Collyer Bristow, Collyer Bristow was liable.
Craig Whyte acted on behalf of Rangers after 6 May last year just as the old board acted on behalf of the club before then. These people are using one argument to chase an enormous £25m but using the counter argument to subvert an SFA judicial panel.
The rules of the SFA are clear, Rangers are ‘liable’ for the actions of their directors, as anyone using this argument to pursue £25m should be well aware. These people are shameless.

So no organisation wants to be the one to sink Rangers and they are all waiting on each other to deliver the killer blow?
This could go on for a while!

Medtim 5.Celtic should field their biggest,toughest,strongest team on Sunday.This will be no place to endanger the career of young players coming through.rangers will be out for blood and will try to inflict serious injury on every Celtic player.
Our biggest, toughest, strongest team IS full of young players. Never mind the FTT case, can someone tell me when the decision about the sectarian singing at iBrokes on Feb 18 (FEB 18!!??) will be announced?
Evening bhoys, warm and hun free.
Hottest day so far this year, low 30s.
So sally has instigated some threats, should get his collar felt me thinks, but he won’t, they won’t even think about it.
What a lovely little country.

capacity next season as we take on the best
that Scotland and Europe has to offer.
“Thank you once again for your magnificent

“McCoist going on about who made up the panel that put the sanctions on Rangers.
Nobody at Ibrox talking to McCoist? (from the DR)”
And this has in turn infuriated the SFA who insist the safety and security of their panel members must come first. Also, Hampden top brass believe McCoist should already know exactly who was involved as a Rangers representative was present at Monday’s verdict.
HAIL HAIL
The mock outrage is laughable,160 k fine with a year to pay.A 12 month transfer embargo,they cant pay for players just now ffs.

Planning for life without rangers…
McCoist is quite simply an absolute disgrace.
His demand that the SFA disciplinary panel members be named in public has stirred up an entirely predictable reaction from the lunatic element of their support. We now have names being mentioned on websites.
We know what Neil Lennon, Trish Goddard and Paul McBride (RIP) went through at the hands of Rangers supporting thugs, so it is not difficult to imagine the anxiety being felt tonight by the disciplinary panel members for the safety of themselves and their loved ones.
If there’s any justice at all the appeal panel will double the fines and the length of the transfer ban.
Liquidation of this vile, rancid institution cannot come quickly enough.
Right one more hour’s work then pub for Ligy Maestro
CL to you and me.
Will write a piece about the filthy behaviour today later.

My missus has just told me that she read an SFA statement from Regan stating that he was surprised at “Mr McCoist’s” request to know the identities of the panel as a hun official was at the hearing!!!!!!!!!!

It looks like a scorched earth ending for Rangers- it is analogous to a criminal taking hostages. “let us escape or we will kill the game”

Does anyone think that a campaign of less-than-subtle intimidation from RFC manager, fans, and Record against SFA panelists will work?
Anyone hear that nutter on Snyde last night saying that ‘unlike those across the city’ the Peepil never threaten others. Barely needs a response, but Manchester, Bullets, Bombs, SFA paneliists

My Season Ticket for a number of years was just on the “good” side of the divide for games against them in the Upper Tier.The amount of stuff thrown at us was incredible.Meanwhile,the police and stewards kept their attention firmly on us.I don’t know the current demographic of the crowd in that area now but,while I was there,there was a high proportion of elderly,young and female fans.If there was an attempt to break through from these animals,I am far from convinced traditional stewarding/policing could prevent it and the Celtic supporters in that area would be exposed to danger.

Unofficial Celtic Sources………………………………………saying that as a mark of respect to Ragers – Hoopy the Huddle Hound will wear brown brogues on Sunday.
Will the MSM report any threats to these guys and their families?
Hello Tony
Speak of the devil :)
Hope you are well my friend.
I’ve mentioned to my brother to come along some time ….he’s a really good lad …. you two would get along well. If we’re in town this weekend, I’ll see if I can drag him along …
Dad might be a bit more bother though …. he lives near Calgary, so would have to get up pretty early to make it to TO for kick off! But, next time he’s in town, he is looking forward to coming.
My little girl is always pissed off that I dont bring her along to the club …. her name is Derry .. a beautiful little five year old with oak coloured hair (hence the name), and her own Celtic shirt …. she says she wont pee on the carpet, and is even learning to bark along to The Celtic Song! Yes, I said ‘bark’ …. she’s a golden retriever… If i could so a link, I send you a picture of her in the hoops!
She watches all the games at home with the boys and I …. curls up at our feet! Its quite nice really (although the boys complain that I dont have Irn Bru, like Tony does at the club!)

Any official lie about why the referee for Sunday’s game has been changed?
Admin FC could provide a great financial boost to Division 3 next year.
Clyde FC have an average attendance thus year of circa 555. They play 18 home league games giving them a total attendance of 9990.
There ground can hold 8000, the largest in this division. Assuming Admin FC filled it twice a season this would give them a total for those two games of 16,000 alone. Even without a price hike this would increase their income from attendances by 160%.
East Stirling have the lowest crowds and ground capacity. This season the average attendance is 324 with a capacity of 1880. Two games v Admin FC would only amount to 3760 , if they have that away support. Their total attendance for this year will be circa 5832. Still an increase of about 66% in income.
No doubt clubs like East Stirling, Montrose (3100) and Peterhead (3250) will use temporary stands to increase the attendance.
The greatest beneficiaries of Admin FC’s largesse could be Queens Park with a Hampden capacity of 52,500.
I am sure they will relish their two trips to Hampden next year.
Admin FC are, for the first time going to be good for Scottish football. I hope the Third Division ate so grateful that they decide to keep them for a few years. They could become so important to the SFL that they change their rules to keep them in their leagues.
May have to take Integrity out of my name.
if anyone phones Snyde,ask Wishart if he had an EBT.

fair point about age of current squad.

I’ve sat closeby, albeit in the lower tier, where the majority of the crowd would have been male but I see what you mean. I recall an elderly fan getting smacked with a potato and have seen coins raining down etc.
If anything kicks off there must be a robust response from the police and stewards.
