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?

I heard it said that Terry picked Celtic as his brother/family member picked Rangers – as some would do…

I pray that one day a massive scandal comes out about SFA collusion with Rangers (I may get my wish soon) but part of me feels that Scotland just could not handle the whole truth about Rangers. It would be too disgusting….but soooooo funny.

I’d rather the plum showed some family loyalty…….
Can anyone tell me what gary neville is implying with his constant concerns about a “turkish referee”?

Seem to remember a Hibs game where he ‘done’ someone
Des Bremner ?

Watching the game myself.
Can you expand any further on what you alluded to in what you expect to come soon?
I fully expect that the end is nigh and believe there is a lot more to come out but interested in what you believe is coming their way apart from the obvious.
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Did Terry not pick Celtwick ?.

I have told you before and I will remind you all again, John Terry is a Celtic supporter
So is Charlie Nicholas (allegedly) & he’s a bawbag too.
Commentary is degenerating into farce, as the crowd were to blame for Chelsea time wasting.

Oh I don’t believe that for a second :-)))
So was Mo Johnstone
Why is McCoist today quoted as saying the SFA punishment might kill Ragers? Surely their own cheating is what has done the damage? Stupid Huns…

There was a meeting held today that has the potential to deliver them, and especially their backers, a serious blow
John Terry a Tim?
Wonder when last he paid in to watch Celtic?
I can’t go along with this hatred towards Chelsea and the belief that Barca are a team of demi-Gods who can do no wrong. The London side have made a real game of this and if they go through, they will have earned their place in the final.
Too many people are letting Rangers dominate every aspect of their waking lives. Chelsea have sod all to do with Rangers. Talk about a Chelsea victory being “a travesty” is utter nonsense.
To be honest, I don’t really care if they win or lose. I won’t lose any sleep either way. I just don’t see it as a footballing disaster if they win.
souness should have been up in court for his assault on Siggi Johnsson, disgraceful.
OG Rafferty,
without spoiling the surprise or revealing your sources, is it going to break tonight? It’s just that thatnks to the timing of last night’s revelation I’m running today on very little sleep (but a tankful of joy).
Should I go to bed now to avoid the same happening today?
Reports say McCoist could face ‘heavy sanction’ for his SFA comments today including a ‘hefty touchline ban’ if found guilty.

Barcas defence isn’t good enough.
The first game at Chelsea and the real game were lost because of basic defensive errors.

If that’s the standard then half this blog’ll be struggling! ;-)

Yeah it’s frightening the potential level of cheating that may be exposed, but you’re right potentially hilarious if exposed and dealt with. Can’t see it happening in public though.

When we played Chelsea in a pre-season a few years back Terry said Celtic were his Scottish team.
The true test of a fan, though, is if they are pissed off after a defeat. Is Terry pissed off if we lose?
If Barca don’t go through tonight, I will have a moment of regret and move on. That means I’m not a Barca fan even though I want them to win.
Barca’s wastefulness in front of goal is their undoing so far in this tie
If David Villa had been fit and playing in both legs from the start, the tie would already be over
If..if the London huns are in the final I’ll be givin’ it a miss. I mean that…they are horrible to watch.

I suggest you stroll through Victoria Station when England are playing – the bars are full of Loyalist flags covered with Chelsea and Rangers insignia
Billy “Buckets” will soon be binned…………..with the rest of the rubbish.
Tom McL
All well with you just now my friend?
row z
….or bought merchandise?
(That better we are inclusive after all?) :-)
When Terry gets sent off do his teammates worry where their burds are?
sparkleghirl, 21:09
I have no idea when it will be out
Hmm. Thanks.
Bolton winning 2-1 at Villa
Ecky in a relegation battle now?
Barca have ran out of ideas. Penalty miss shattered them.
Wish Drogba would get a real injury.
O.G.Rafferty on 24 April, 2012 at 21:06:
Thanks for the response, I wait to hear with baited breath.
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Barca requiring a Paddy McCourt type player to come on now.
Barca need to show some guts and get people in the box
They need to show some real desire to score rather than walk the ball in to the net
Gary Neville getting his hopes up, has to be good for Barca.
