Football authorities and turning a blind eye

415

Scottish Football League, rule 23. Members’ Financial Records, “All Members and Associate Members shall keep detailed financial records of their activities and the board may arrange an inspection of all such records”.

In the absence of audited accounts for a new club, the board of the SFL are in a unique position to examine the financial records of The Rangers to ensure its leadership is not running amok with the Scottish game, in the same way previous incumbents of Ibrox did.

Or, a few months after Craig Whyte crashed a football club after telling everyone he had enough money to complete the season, will the football authorities look the other way?  Again?

    Rangers: Charles Green apologises for Aston Villa remarks

     

     

    Rangers chief executive Charles Green has apologised to Aston Villa for comments he made last week.

     

     

    Green predicted that a European league would be formed because “big teams can’t keep subsidising small teams”.

     

     

    And he posed the question: “How can Manchester United’s revenues be £320m and Aston Villa, who are completely useless, get £250m?”

     

     

    Rangers said: “Mr Green has sent an apology to Aston Villa saying there had been no intention to cause offence.”

     

     

    HH

  10. So if you call a person or an organisation ‘bloody useless’, you are not intending to cause offence?!

     

     

    Fat Sally is ‘bloody useless’ – no offence fatso!

     

     

    HH!!

    There was an interesting comment by the caller towards the end of the conversation.

     

     

    She said Dingwall has been seen “selling his free tickets” at the subway. She mentions it later and the suggestion is that supporters clubs have been receiving free tickets for the games.

     

     

    Nothing wrong with that, Fergus did it when we played at Hampden. However it may explain the size of the crowds at Ibrox.

     

     

    Awe Naw…

     

     

    Another question…

     

     

    Did Rangers (1872 – 2012) ever pay the SFA compensation when Smith walked away from the Scotland manager’s job?

     

     

    In the narrative of the SFA accounts for 2007 and 2008 there is no reference to Smith leaving never mind compensation.

     

     

    Accounts have been approved off by Messrs Peat, Ogilvie, McCrae and G Smith.

    His usual tosh – we can control it on phone-ins. Callers moderate their language – we can cut them off etc.

     

     

    Interesting that when his call ended one of the journalists went on to refer to keyboard warriors – not in the West of Scotland but NW England.

     

     

    He said: his home address and daughters’ school were posted on the internet.

     

     

    What annoys me is that each and every one of these individuals are traceable – why don’t they file police complaints against those breaching the law?

     

     

    Problem is – print media is declining rapidly. A purge on rancid posters will inevitably render newspapers superfluous within the next 5 years – hence their reluctance to address what is rapidly becoming a serious social I.T. issue.

    He did not expect his comments regarding Aston Villa to be repeated outwith the west of Scotland and Belfast.

     

     

    After all, that is where his global audience of 500 million rangers supporters live.

  17. Keevins and his ilk are cretins with no social conscience

     

     

    Easy to deal with however don’t buy his wretched paper and don’t participate in his stupid radio show

  18. TCC,

     

    having seen a couple of Villa games while thay aint completely useless,

     

    i am not sure they are of the standard of a newly formed SFL Div3 team

     

    that took QoS to pens in a recent cup tie

  19. CG talks of them having 500 million supporters.

     

    That’s 7% of the world population.

     

    This statement trumps Minty at his best.

     

    Whatever else you say about CG he is good for a laugh.

  20. Mrs & mini attended a torchlight procession tonight at the Grotto..

     

     

    prayers for Wee Oscar as well as others in need..
