The statement released by Duff and Phelps last night revealed the substance to the lobbying that had taken place since the original punishment handed out by the SFA judicial panel:
“The decision by the appellate tribunal to uphold the sanction, namely the suspension of registration of players for one year, is not competent in the view of the club and its legal advisers.
“Such a sanction was not available to the tribunal”.
The suspension of player registrations was not one of the suggested punishments on the menu for the judicial panel but the rules allowed them to vary from guidance and choose whatever punishment they believed appropriate.
The appeal correctly found that the judicial panel were not were not subject to an exhaustive list of possible punishments. Duff and Phelps main hope was that the SFA rules were unclear and poorly constructed, as they were before an overhaul last year.

did we win anything with Keane or Bellamy, no sure who done who the favour on that score.
Just caught up.
Fan, shit and hit in any order you like.
Wonder if McCoist and Jardine’s whining and threats came back to bit them on the bum?

“See if I was in the disability benefit section of the DHSS, I think I would be tempted to take a wee dauner down to old Ibrox on Sunday and film the walkers.”
It is not a disability if you are deluded, a ned or both.
Where does all this shite about Rangers fans being on disability benefits come from? They were getting all the jobs when I lived in Glasgow.
As my late father was prone to describe them. The sick the lame and the lazy.
So the huns supporters are giving the voters the choice of
if you dont vote us back in unanimously we’ll boycott you
vote us out and we’re insignificant
I hope the keep the pressure on, threatening boycotts in their position is probably the worst strategy their master tactician could have come up with.
ha ha stupid huns
steinreigns…,
thats why they want to shut catholic schools

It’s not the 70’s anymore.
And a lot of them come from the Jeremy Kyle guest demographic. Plenty of money for fags, booze, Rainjurs season tickets, and morbid obesity, and plenty of time on their hands because their lifestyles are being funded by working people. (thumbsup)

Describe who – Huns?
Fathers Day here today and my son gave me the best present he could have given me and the sun is shining down gloriously.
Vatertag in Germany is a bank holiday ;-)
Happy about the panels decision.
Scottish football cannot be seriously rebuilt with a newclub in the SPL.
Can anyone remember the Alan McDonald bugging relevations in the press. I believe this was after he commissioned the psychological profiling of Dallas in the shame game
If anybody can put some meat and bones on this I would appreciate it. I cant find anything on the internet.

Has either Greig or McLelland came out to publicly defend themselves from criticsm they received in the report ?

Two members of my family are disabled. They both hold down jobs and pay their taxes.
No one is paying their way.
Grant Russell @STVGrant
Via @stvdavidc, prospective Rangers owner Charles Green at Hampden just now to meet with SFA and SPL. Nature of meeting unknown.
The stupid huns are planning,
to insist the club boycott the Scottish Cup.
boycott all away games.
demand their players withdraw from the Scotland squad.
put pressure on sponsors.
Meantime it has emerged the DWP will send cameras to the limpathon on Sunday to capture any benefit cheats. I made that one up, but lets say the idea has been voiced.
Steinreignedsupreme – I’m sure we’re both right.
I don’t think anybody’s having a go at disabled people.
The system of disability benefits is widely abused by people who have made a conscious lifestyle choice to opt out of working for a living, because work gets in the way of their hobbies of alcoholism, drug use, and general neddery. These poor lumpen creatures are overrepresented among the Follow Followers.
Remember how fat and stupid that “Big Hoose” bear was? What do you think the odds are of him being in paid employment? (thumbsup)

For every gross and thick Hun on crutches there are 10 gross and thick Huns with Christian names like Crawford, Thomson, Ramsey and Brown who are in good jobs and are far more sinister than the ‘Big Hoose Joker.
The mooted walk is a win-win for followers of the Foe Malign, offering as it does some handy practice for the up-and-coming marching season.
A spot of drizzle wouldn’t go amiss, either …

I agree: Big Hoose Bear is a symptom, not the problem …

I have a right good story on the above subject, i may spend time and type it out 1 day.
Read the Evening Times at lunchtime today which featured a nauseating puff-piece by one Chris Jack featuring Huns coach Jim Stewart eulogising McCoist and McGregor (or “Greesgy” (sic) as the sub-heading calls him). More words on this than the failed appeal. It even includes a plug for Stewart’s son’s coaching business complete with website address and contact phone number!
There is an interview with Broony but this begins “He had waited four years to get his hands of (sic) the SPL championship trophy as captain of Celtic”.
Unbelievable how far the standards have dropped at what used to be one of the more decent papers.
When will FPLG demand to know the identities of the 20 investors?
Green meeting SPL/SFA to thrash out a deal for Newclub.
I believe a club must give 2 years notice to quit the SPL or face financial penalties.
That is the threat of quitting and going to Division 3 out the window…
istanbulcelt – Any theories as to what will be revealed in the forth coming BBC attack on Der Hun.
* Gordon Smith investigated by “Heir Hunters”, but they couldn’t find any
* The criminal mastermind who ate “all the pies” revealed to be Ally McCoist
* That money was just resting in Sir David’s account
* Craig Whyte turns out to be two kids wearing a long coat
* His Satanic Majesty, the Devil, AKA Beelzebub, AKA The Lord of the Flies, AKA The Enemy, ends his long association with RFC(IA) out of embarrassment.

Being a left footer has never stopped me from being successful.
It’s not the olden days anymore.
My theory is that widespread sectarian discrimination in the Scottish workplace died out with the heavy industries.
Scots of Irish Catholic descent achieved income and educational parity with their Protestant neighbours sometime in the 1990’s. (thumbsup)

My Wife is educated, but suffers from a coupl eof illnesses now. They are progressive, but ATOS are saying she should be on Job Seekers in December, after winning an appeal against her original judgement.
It’s a total disgrace. She will never work again. Believe me.
