At some point today those who believed Rangers have, or should have, impunity from the law of the land, as well as the rules and regulations of Scottish football, will awaken to the realisation that this is not the case.
Soon thereafter another thought will arrive: what about the impending Improper Registration of Players charge?
Over a decade of subverting every competition they have played in. Denying clubs who register players correctly the right to compete on a level playing field. Grabbing prize money and the abundant financial rewards of Champions League football rightly due to others – more on this later in the week.
This charge brings every domestic and European competition they played in into disrepute and is several times the magnitude than that which Rangers were punished for yesterday. Then consider bringing the game into disrepute by chasing football bling instead of paying taxes, a separate issue from player registration.
The toxicity of these charges is enormous and if upheld will bring punishments appropriate for corrupting over 700 football games. A whole raft of disciplinary procedures has still to take place. If the misdemeanours of the Craig Whyte era have caused distress, those of the old board, including Ogilvie, Johnston and the Murray twins, will soon establish Rangers current owner as a mere footnote in the club’s demise.
Show of hands, who sat on the board that spent £4m on Jelavic two years after the HMRC investigation into EBTs started?

They want to be able to buy players?
Pay for the ones you have just now and the other ones that have now left; what a shower of arrogant cheats. No wonder they are not liked.
Did the SFA help Gretna, Motherwell, Dundee, Airdrie…?
The angry mob are angry.
well said Terry re TERMINATION…

Page 102 of the judicial panel protocol covers rule 66 £100000 fine and termination of membership.
Not or termination of membership,
And termination.
Same applies to rule 14.
Two breaches of 325 should have resulted in a fine and expulsion from the scottish cup next season,
rangers were censored.
Regan – His version of without fear or favour… Last line sticks out.
AND I QUOTE…
“Rangers have been part of the fabric of Scottish football’s history and are integral to its future prosperity.
“The Scottish FA must act with integrity and with the best interests of the game at heart. It is with this in mind that we await any appeal from the club.”

Lots of conspicuous ‘clumsy’ word usage from Ally’s statement too. It’s like reading a B Movie script for Inception.
Do they have a grand to lodge the appeal?
as funny as it is, i for one do not trust the suited men of mount florida
This punishment is a joke. Should have been at least 2 years tranfer embargo and the fine should have been in the Millions
The Hacks’ Big Mooth must stay open….
why are we shocked at response of rfcia ?
we know them !
Sixteen roads to Golgotha
they be hurtin’ bad a tells ya
“My wee boy [38yo] asked me the other day what happens to his Rangers teddy bear if Rangers go bust, broke my f***ing heart trying to tell him it will still be his bear, and he said but it won’t be a Rangers bear, f***ing bubbling like a big wean I was.”
Surely no club would “sell”players to the skint mob,if they survive.

No but they have a grand lodge that appeals to them’
….. Because of the bottom line.

Get off Clyde dafty
closed doors and hampden handshakes, do not be surprised by anything that may come out of an appeal by them !!!
Come on guys, Support Scottish football and sign the petition

Ironic that on Sky Sports 1, Jeff Stelling says ‘there are no beauties or beasts on our studio team today’ yet the beast himself, Souness, is sitting right beside him…..
FFS get off Clyde and stop embarrasing our support
Traynor is the alpha-male of Murray’s Pavlovian dogs…conditioned on succulent lamb…by the way: how can the SFA reduce their punishment? Six month transfer embargo? That just sounds daft. Surely they can’t reduce their financial penalties…which are way too small as it is.
The only thing I could see happening is for them to scarp the transfer embargo. But this will cause too much outrage amongst the rest of Scottish football…the SFA have just managed to get the balance right with their decision.
Who is the guy??
Dawyll King should be on suicide watch.
He’s losing it.
Whats the numpty saying on clyde?
Scarp- an island off Harris?

Should that not read, do they have a Grand Master to lodge an appeal?

From earlier, thanks for the update. I could never see the route past the Forge. M74 at Dalmarnock might work once there is parking available that side of the London Road.
Note that one of my favourite players, Gerard Piquet back in the Barcelona team, first since the AC Milan match. I have gone 3-1 Barca without the goalscorer.

Utterly staggering the sheer arrogance of RFC and their media poodles: “WHY ARE WE BEING PUNISHED!!??”
Erm, maybe because you broke the rules?
