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?

North Stand, near the rear of the front section. Cracking seat and had it since the stand was built. I have had a seaon ticket since I was 15. Celtic end of the old Celtic Park and then Hampden for my first adult season ticket and back to Paradise when the North stand went up.

Have we seen the ‘Stop the SFA’ site?
there is a link on RTC.
Here’s a taste:
==================================
Please let Campbell, Alan, Rod and Stewart know your feelings but as always remember you are a representative of Rangers FC and as such keep email communication professional.

So much wrong with that in such a short passage it’s untrue!!!1

well well old salmond willing to help the murdochs in anyway
The same site claims that the punishment is unprecedented.
That is spot on. It is. No other club owner ever took over, deliberately withheld information about his fit and properness, being banned as a company director, deliberately withheld taxes to pay for players and to hasten liquidation so he could get the club on the cheap. And no one ever before has failed to do the proper due diligence, in this case 10 minutes on Companies house web page, to stop a guy like that buying a prominent top flight club.
Unprecedented indeed.
Wait until the registration of players investigation returns it’s verdict.
Unprecedented, at least in Scottish football. But not in Switzerland – very recently.
Oh dear.
Walking to hampden indeed.
They really don’t understand do they?
They have yet to reach acceptance.
The vocal ones anyway.
Let’s see how many turn out on Saturday. Will it match the massive demonstration the day they went in to Administration? Could they reach the dizzy heights of three dozen again?
That’ll tell us how many have yet to reach acceptance. I think more of them might understand that we think.
But as long as there are people of the calibre of Dark Mingwall leading the charge Rangers future is secure. Secure as in we all know exactly what their future holds. And it looks grim.
Ha HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Not been on this afternoon can someone please point me in the direction of MaCmillan’s comments on Shortbread earlier? Thanks

I agree with most of that but do you not think that they are going to Hampden because it’s their only chance this season?

Maybe this season, but do Queens Park still play their home games there? They could be guaranteed at least two visits a season…………

Is this what OG was alluding to?

No need to apologise. I am certainly glad you provided that link. IMO , both of the show`s hosts were frustrated with the obvious tunnel vision of MacMillan and just gave up on him. Were some people on here claiming that MacMillan is a decent guy? If so, they are either wrong or have a very different view of decency than that which I have!

Your reply to me earlier, and your reply to Auldheid totally contradict each other.
You said to me that the spl was virtually gone and to Auldheid that the power brokers would still be in situ.

ulysses mcghee, duped is the word.
Sheik Yerbouti, last night was a warm up.
Ulryc, you’re welcome.
ASonOfDan, aye, some of it.
ExiledBhoy, yes, indeed, it’s only just started.
Back to Basics :-) Many thanks.
Chairbhoy, cheers.
Celtic Mac, perhaps if they pay their bills all this trouble will go away.
Auldheid, yes.
danso_1888, do you have a link to the rules you can send me? Row Z reads it differently.
Shady, 16:40, best thing I’ve read on here in months. I’ll have to steal that sentiment for the days to come.
merseycelt, hope so.
Malceye, Platini is up for regionalisation but I don’t see anything happening soon.
jude2005, thank you.

Unbelievable. It’s all Neil Lennon’s fault. Even the RS prresenters were clearly gobsmacked.

Thanks for posting that interview with McMillan. They just can’t see that they’ve done wrong can they. Neil’s getting the blame for everything. The mask is slipping for all of these fine upstanding, ‘reasonable’, well spoken RFC supporters. The bile has started and it’s certain to get worse.
