Duff and Phelps in the dock with Rangers as SPL hit back

247

The SPL today released a short statement indicating that despite asking for information regarding the improper registrations of football players to be submitted by 6 April, the league have yet to receive “full cooperation from the club and its administrators in providing everything that it and they have access to and which is required for the investigation to be completed”.

This being the case you may wonder why the league have been so keen to accommodate Duff and Phelps on the matter of allowing a Newco-Rangers access to the league.

Tonight the SPL will receive all the information they require to confirm Rangers have a case to answer.  They must act with the gravity the situation deserves.

Duff and Phelps failure to comply with the Harper MacLeod inquiry might superficially allow their job to progress as though there was nothing wrong, but it leaves an enormous and insurmountable issue for potential buyer to find when they conduct due diligence.

If Duff and Phelps had provided information on time, there was at least a chance they could have removed this iceberg that will surely scupper their chances of selling the club.

I am pleased Mr Doncaster has stepped forward this evening.  Now the truth is out he must deal with the matter expediently.

  15. Just before the blog goes under…on my way to Norwich yesterday and a young lad in full Celtic training kit (shorts and everything) jumped onto the tube at Baker street..he did look slightly out of place and when asked by a couple of tims if he was on his way to Norwich he replied “yeah I’m playing “..( cue skeptical looks all round ).. He rushed off the tube at Liverpool street and jumped onto the 0930 train to Norwich. It was young Andre Blackman who did indeed play last night. I just thought it was such a down to earth way to get to a match…I thought those days were over after the time I seen Jim Craig on the way to a match on top of a corporation bus going down London road with his boots over his shoulder. So at least not all (or any)of our young lads are swanking about in big fancy motors. Fair play to you young Andre.

    Jenko, if, like me (I live in Germany), you have the SKY package (with a Scottish address), you’ll also have access to BBC Scotland.
