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.

  1. The SPL effectively called Aluko a liar and cheat? I’ll go one better Ally: Aluko is a liar and a cheat, and has been proven so.

    I dont find it offensive just unfunny. Its easy to knock those at the bottom of the pile and I agree its not in our traditions to do so as many of our families started at the very bottom of the pile as penniless immigrants. Given we have real targets to laugh at in society, twats like Cameron and his ilk,, the robbers and pirates who run our banks and kid on billionaires lets not pick on the poor.

  3. Ceasar – Cesar is spelled thus, named after Cesar Romero, not Julius…. All to do with the original Oceans Eleven

  4. If it weren’t for the fact that received wisom dictates teams need either fullbacks or wingbacks, I’d ditch 4 at the back tomorrow. Matthews (who had been playing poorly anyway) is out injured, leaving us with mediocre options on either side.

     

     

    Lennon’s favoured high tempo faltered last week when it became clear that our fullbacks weren’t capable of bombing on or giving good delivery into the box. We also had two ball-winners rather than passers in the middle. Add to this that one of our front 2 was off colour and we had a problem creating decent chances.

     

     

    However, last year’s experiment against Inverness showed that 3-5-2, while bold on paper, quickly collapses into a dull 5-3-2 as uncertainty discourages the wingers from advancing any further than the halfway line.

     

     

    Reluctantly, I’ll vote for 4 at tha back, but I’d like to see Paddy given a start. We have too many players out who are key to that high passing tempo (Matthews, Izzy, Ledley, Commons) and need an alternative.

    Laughing at the the Jeremy Kyle demographic and laughing at the poor, the working class or immigrants are two very different things.

     

     

    The same email with locations and other local info changed will do the rounds in other areas as the storms continue.

     

     

    It’s not looking down on folk from a particular part of the world, and it’s not laughing at those less fortunate than ourselves.

     

     

    When I am unfortunate to watch that tv show the thing I notice is that the accents change but the clothes, topics and scripts remain the same.

  10. IT is back again.

     

     

    AH, Well.

     

    I will do the forum a favour & resist from my natural reaction.

    Contrary to popular wisdom ….. never listen to the voice of reason.

    I’m sure you like James Forrest, as he is a real team player. However, when the team isn’t purring along, as happened against Dundee Utd, he isn’t capable of magicking something out of nothing.

     

     

    For all his talent, he is a cog, who depends on all the other gears and wheels to be functioning if he is to flourish.

     

     

    For that reason, we still need players like Paddy when the team is missing all the ingredients to make it work.

    Can you tell me how long I’ve been registered on CQN ?

    that may be the point of the mail but its actually been done very badly.

     

     

    if more attention was paid to detail it may have been funny.

     

     

    chewin the fat, burnistoun, still game, limmy do this well (in most cases).
