You wonder if Ally McCoist rues the day he called for the public outing of members of the SFA Judicial Panel which imposed a player registration ban on his club. One judge, one journalist and one football club, Raith Rovers, were soon outed. Crossing the Fifers was a mistake.
Raith Rovers are now pointing out the same facts we have discussed here for months:
“We are also concerned that there has not as yet been an opportunity for clubs to receive legal advice from the SFL and/or debate the potential consequences on the smooth running of our league in the event that the Courts are asked to annull/strike down any of the corporate transactions that have led to the current position of Sevco Scotland Ltd as owners of certain assets of the Rangers oldco.
“Indeed, the position as regards the potential sanctions to be applied by the Scottish FA via its Appellate Tribunal has also still to be bottomed out.”
In short, Sevco’s ownership of Ibrox may be nullified by the courts and the SFA will be forced to subvert judicial oversight if it wants to guarantee Sevco participate in football next season.
While these concerns were only expressed online, the SFA were able to ignore the issue, but with Raith Rovers asking the questions Mr Regan will have to look SFL clubs in the eye and tell them what he’s going to do with Lord Carloway.
Lurgan 53
Dwyer O’Hagan, or Lurgan 53 as he was known here, passed away on Wednesday after an illness stretching back to last year. Dwyer enjoyed our triumphs and defeats on the blog for many years and will be sadly missed by us all. Our condolences to his family and friends.

ERNIE LYNCH 1844
Really????????????????????????????????????
Why so?
Been off the blog for a bit and on the phone,but I genuinely doubt that anything has changed in the last hour or so.
So,debate this one with me,Ernie.
Please.
Prestonpans
Give it time :-)
ernie
The board didn’t let us down this week despite many calling for a pre emptive statement, in the end they delivered big style.
Just maybe it’s time for you to put a wee bit of trust in PL et al.
It would be hard to argue against the way they have handled this so far.
Cliftonville V Celtic in Belfast,or Celtic V Inter Milan in Glasgow?
Decisions,decisions.
I do love the wee Reds,but…
:)
Bit strange since rejection by SPL been nothing about who will be club 12
Keeping their place in case SFL knock them back?
I don’t think the support needs to be divided.If there are decisions being made,that are against the rules of the association,Celtic will speak out against it.Surely?

sorry for delay in reply
been watchin the Tour highlights
re Window In The West
yeh, my sister plans to purchase a copy of it soon
she couldn’t find it about town so easily and has
therefore decided to have a look online
so, while browsing, i came across that wee video
i am always fascinated by the story behind a project
how it started, how it progressed and ultimately
how the thing ended up
it took her 6 months to paint it
and she lived across the road of the “subject” for 4yrs
i suppose all that hard graft paid off in the end
very commendable
hope your wife finds a nice copy of it

Paul 67,
Fine sentiments well expressed, again.
Lurgan 53, may you rest in peace, god bless you and your loved ones at this time.

All you doubting Thomas’s!
How many statements should the club make on a daily, or hourly basis to satisfy all the tittle tattle, your imaginations, rumours, stories in the red tops or the mumblings of bummer broon that YOU are responding too?
How many?
Paddy G
Is your surname Anderson, after the shelter :-))
CLASHCITYBHOY 1813
Said all along that Murray offered the club to someone with the money to take it forward.
Unfortunately he was unwilling to swallow the debt.
One of them would have to liquidate the club,before or after the takeover,and neither fancied a tonmbstone.
What was needed was a useful idiot,with a record for not giving a monkeys,and not resident in Scotland.
Guess who stays round the corner from McColl in Monaco?

I know what the FIFA would prefer but if asked why a member is ignoring one its statutes they will be hard pressed to say it is not FIFA’s business and reading AT’s latest blog he will be asking FIFA and I imagine SFL Chairman will be asking them too.
Celtic will deal with whatever emerges whenever it does so why say anything? Right now they will be munching popcorn.

There’s nothing to debate.
The absence of the huns from the SPL will adversely affect Celtic’s finances.
Only a fool would deny that.

Ernie,
My love for my wife is both unconditional and, at times, critical.
But I don’t accuse her of acting against our family’s interests because my next door neighbour won’t pay tax, the government seem slow to respond properly and she refuses to call them out publicly, probably fearing that our children and their friends might be attacked.
Hail Hail
Is any one else fed up with the deranged rantings of Ernie Lynch
Ernie for the love of God can you not give your anti board diatribes a rest
rangers are defunct,Celtic have a champions league qualifier to look forward to and still you rant on and on about the board ,blah bloody blah
Sick to f@@kin death of your crap

Not if we qualify for the CL Group Stages it won’t.
Far from it.

What is this “scottish summer” you are talkin’ about?

Parachuting Sevco into the SPL did not work out too well. Planet B is Division 1 of the SFL. Planet C is Division 3 of the SFL. There is no Planet D.
There actually is a planet D and it is my preferred option…………oblivion.

Yes mate, being a critic is an honour reserved for the people who couldn’t do the job.
How many film critics have won an oscar?
Whit’s the Hampden roar..?
Friday the 13th? Ha!
Many more meandering twists and turns yet to come in this most unfortunate debacle/civil war.
Mr Regan: To twit or not to twit, this is the question.

Then don’t read it.
It sounds like it might be a case of pearls before swine anyway.

Your statement……
“There’s nothing to debate.

Don’t the board deserve great credit then for the statement and stance they made this week in light of how it will affect our finances?
(i) That the Scottish Football League Members agree to admit Sevco Scotland Limited as an Associate Member and agrees to permit Rangers F.C. to play in the League during Season 2012/13. time they all just say no and they will be in no league not even d3.

Lol.
Ernie is good poster mate,and perhaps one of the most intelligent on CQN.
I enjoy reading his opinions,even if i disagree with some of his views.
Try not to let it bother you too much.
@CelticResearch: Longmuir said, “The time has come for all outside influences and pressures to stop.” just after an SFL meeting attended by the SPL’s lawyer
Pearls a singer Ernie – gies a song :-))
Celtic have been prudent since MON, and been ridiculed for the balance sheet before trophies. I really don’t think the Celtic Board is too far away from what the ordinary fan feels about newco. We will have access to CL every season, if we are progressing on the field correctly.
Ernie
I seldom do read your stuff,because its the same old sad predictable “dem big bad board dun us wrong” total nonsense,
Pearls before swine,??
What a sad clown you are
Stand back and think about that,your contributions are “pearls” are we are swine
Lovely,it seems you hold the CQN community in as much contempt as you do the Celtic board
Crazy man
Has anyone ever seen a flim called Meserine?
Is it any good?
Paddy Gallagher on 7 July, 2012 at 20:24 said:
That sound like the sort of blind loyalty and obedience that’s led the huns to where they are now.
No matter.
Obviously you are content not to know whether the Celtic board have a position on whether the sevco huns should be allowed into division 1.
Fair enough.
Others are entitled to have a different view.

—————————————
I commend to everyone a book called Unconditional Love by John Powel SJ. It is a life changer. In it Powell confronts the dilema when unconditional love of another causes unbearable pain for the one offering it. He suggests that the answer lies in the scripture message love thy neighbour as thyself.
Lets call that love thy neighbour unconditionally and love thyself unconditionally . Powell suggests that if loving the other causes more pain and loss of self and respect for oneself than is bearable, then at that point love of self takes primacy. Without such a rule Unconditional Love becomes a sign on a doormat that says walk all over me. I think this rule can be stretched wider than interpersonal relationships.
So if some folk think they are being asked to be doormats then that is just a sign of their self respect regulator being set at a lower tolerance level than those those who are more prepared to accept they are not been treated with respect and are ok with it.
