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.

I heard today that if Real win the final, Celtic have one fewer qualifier to play – can anyone confirm?
Hail! Hail! been out of contact for a couple of days, can anyone tell me why Murray is now ref for Sunday?
Just switched off telly after the ludicrous penalty decision in favour of Real Fascist , seems like the MIB`s influence is growing.
There are a few more goals to come in this game.

Thanks re season books – I was being facetious (ツ) .
As has been mentioned, if ever there was more reason to renew your book
totally unconditionally and without a blink of an eye, it’s this season.
My family’s support of Celtic is not inter dependent on Ragers predicament, and or the eventual outcome. I support Celtic partly because of injustice, and won’t alter, even when it’s been fully exposed.

Cheers for that I’m glad it invoked some pleasant memories for you mate.
Gordon_J/James79 – agree on both counts, but Real will score again. The next goal must come from Bayern.
Ref is a homer!

I hear the “Celtic will vote for Ragers” line every other day from Celtic fans I know especially one armchair fan I know who is adamant, about it.
I agree with you that the soundbites from Celtic Media Team are very different, and some of the recently provoked reaction from Celtic FC, suggest otherwise.
Sadly, I don’t think it will matter which way Celtic vote.
——————————
It might not matter if the do vote against it (and they will) but what will mattter will be the reasons that they give.
They have enough accumulated evidence to demand that fundamental changes are made at the SFA on internal governance and refereeing and demand for specific reforms that might address their concerns, put it to UEFA and ask them to enforce implementation.
The case that Celtic operate in a corrupt, hostile environment needs to be madeand safeguards against that environment introduced.
pen Bayern should be a red,coward gives a yellow
Pen for Bayern in….Madrid ! Yellow for Pepe.
T4
2 – 1
2-1
Pen Bayern scores just
bayern score!!! 2-1!!!! some game this is turning out to be
Apparently if Real win the Champions League AND Lagia Liga Celtic have only one Qualifier to play. Can any CQNer give us a definitive answer on this one? Hail Hail Hebcelt
That’s a feckin red BTW! Robben makes up for earlier miss 2-1 and game on.
T4
This could turn out to be a classic game.

Ta- £24 not bad considering the freeze for a few years.
I, jackie mac, of slightly unsound mind and literacy have no fupping idea what is going on with the great scottish institution. I am completely lost, kerfuffled. It is exactly like the series Lost when they over did everything and the writers had no idea what to do.
2-1 Robben penalty Go on Bayern
La Liga sorry Hebcelt
C’mon Bayern!!!!!!!!!!!!

pardon me for jumping in
TTTT
Macae, north of Rio.
Going to Rio on Saturday and will be watching the lst ever Glasgow Derby game with the Bhoys from Brazil.
Haven’t met them as yet (although I have the T-Shirt!) and really looking forward to it, in spite of the 8:45 am kick-off!
hebcelt and up over goal.
this was meantioned last night but I think it was dismissed as hope rather than fact… o(
lst=last
What did I tell you?
You know I’m pretty sure we wouldn’t have got either of those penalties.
Why does Robben always wear a shirt seemingly a size too small for him?
Has anyone in the media asked McCoist what he meant by “supposedly independent judicial panel)
The word “supposedly” needs some explanation
Surely McCoist is not questioning the independence of the panel?
If he is then he should tell us about his doubts
Like McCoist said it’s in the Scottish public’s interest for us to know
the cheekie chappie is not funny anymore csc.
Cannae see it going to extra time !
