Rangers on SFA warpath since Fit and Proper enquiry

1203

Rangers manager, Ally McCoist, appears intent on testing the SFA following his outburst yesterday.  According to McCoist the Association “effectively called” Sone Aluko “a cheat and a liar”.  Chairmen of the disciplinary tribunal, former referee Jim McCluskey, had his judgement called into question by McCoist, who said, “The meeting was chaired by a former referee and I have to say his decision making hasn’t improved any since he stopped refereeing.”

This is a new tone from the Rangers manager, who never spoke in these terms about the SFA before they decided to investigate Rangers owner Craig Whyte’s suitability as a fit and proper person to be involved in the game.  Despite yesterday’s punishment, Rangers remain Scotland’s most influential club by the length of the Queen’s highway.  Sabre rattling from Ibrox cannot be dismissed by the Association, who, I am led to believe, will find their investigation into Whyte thwarted.

McCoist escaped SFA punishment for his inflammatory comments to Neil Lennon at Celtic Park in March. It remains to be seen if this new outburst establishes a new method of inappropriate behaviour without consequence. Shauny Aluko will surely not thank his manager for the “cheat and a liar” association. Words like those tend to follow a player.

    Yes down PEEL street in Partick!!!!

  2. They’ll end up getting their usual penalty IF they can actually get into the box. In all truth this is perhaps the worst Rangers team I have ever seen; a joy to watch!

  3. Woah this has been a horrible game of football! Dire, dire stuff! Looking forward to the game against the minis today, would love to see Hooper grab another few, had him as top goal scorer and that bet seemed to be up a few weeks ago! What a turnaround in form!

    ESPN team involking the review panel and all chuffed at declaring it

  6. Would hate to see us make any sort of move for O’Conner based on this performance.

     

     

    He is junk.

     

     

    I’d be quite happy to be proved wrong big man. ;-)

    There is still plenty of time for a Hun penalty! I’ll only be happy when the game is over!

    Poor Doddsie on Shortbread declares in unacceptable that Rangers are not creating chances.

  9. Hibs looking the more likely, Huns useless but I wouldn’t be surprised to see them score when they eventually create something.

  10. Rangers resorting to their traditional tactics of fouling the opposition.

     

     

    Bocanegra booked

  11. saltires en sevilla on

    offsides not showing on replays when hibs ‘off’

     

     

    when it’s currants we have time for in-depth analysis

     

     

    strange that

     

     

    yellow for Bocanegra on osbourne total kung fu kick!

     

     

    3 curants booked and dareisay brines is reffing.. reasonably?

  12. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    Last man straight red

     

     

    Burley proceeds to rewrite the rules hand ball in the box is definitely not a penalty

  13. Bartley is a chancer, can’t believe he is a product of arsenals youth development! Big Mjallby had him painting his pants brown!

  14. Feckin stonewaller on first viewing… ……

     

     

    Hart’s had a total shocker.

    See what did I tell you?! Wish I had put a bet on that!

    Sorry to say it was a penalty

     

    Watched the ref now interrupt and slow the game down

  17. The more you look at the penalty the more Wallace made the most of it with a Norman Wisdom -esque fall.

     

     

    It was a penalty but he made it rather theatrical.

  18. According to BBC Jelavic is now only to be known as “Croatia international striker Nikica Jelavic”….
