Regan on SFA acting without fear

944

“The Scottish FA has a responsibility to all its members and must implement its rules without fear or favour”.  Stewart Regan, SFA chief executive, 24 April 2012.

What chance the SFA will be able to act without fear now?  I don’t imply they will act without favour, but do you believe SFA panellists can act without fear?  Anyone who participates in Rangers appeal process and upholds their punishment will act despite fear.

This process, one of the most important the SFA has dealt with in years, has been subverted, and that calls for a far greater sanction that any already imposed.

    The Jardine family are well aquainted with the consequences of fraudulent behaviour I believe.

    I would say something deep and meaningful but you’d just ignore it!

  8. The nature of the rhetoric being used by Rangers staff this week is seriously concerning me.

     

     

    Be careful at the weekend lads. These guys are ramping this up deliberately.

    Notice of Complaint issued

     

    Thursday, 26 April 2012

     

     

    The Compliance Officer has issued the following Notice of Complaint:

     

     

    Name: Neil Lennon, Celtic FC

     

    Match: Celtic v Heart of Midlothian (William Hill Scottish Cup) – 15th April 2012

     

    Disciplinary Rule(s) allegedly breached: Rules 203, 68 and 71

     

    Principal Hearing Date: Thursday, 10th May 2012

     

     

    Mr. Lennon has until Thursday, 3rd May 2012 to respond to the Notice of Complaint.

     

     

    Rule 203: No member of Team Staff shall commit Misconduct at a match, including but not limited to committing acts of the kind described in the Schedule of Offences in Annex C (including where there is aggravation by any factor, including but not limited to prolongation of the incident; combination of different offences; continued use of offensive, abusing and/ or insulting language and/or behaviour; calling a match official a cheat and/ or calling a match official’s integrity into question; failure to comply with a match official’s requests; adoption of aggressive behaviour towards a match official; any racist, sexist, sectarian and/or otherwise discriminatory element; and the degree of any physical violence), breaching the Post Match Protocol and committing Unacceptable Conduct.

     

     

    Rule 68: No recognised football body, club, official, Team Official or other member of Team Staff, player or other person under the jurisdiction of the Scottish FA, shall in an interview, a ‘blog’ on the internet, on a social networking or micro-blogging site, or in any other manner calculated or likely to lead to publicity (i) criticise the performance(s) of any or all match official(s) in such a way as to indicate bias or incompetence on the part of such match official; or (ii) make remarks about such match official(s) which impinge on his character. For the avoidance of doubt this rule applies (i) whether reported to the Scottish FA by a referee for misconduct or otherwise, and (ii) where remarks are brought to the Scottish FA’s attention, or of which the Scottish FA becomes aware, by whatever manner or means.

     

     

    Rule 71: A recognised football body, club, official, Team Official, other member of Team Staff, player or other person under the jurisdiction of the Scottish FA shall, at all times, act in the best interests of Association Football and shall not act in any manner which is improper

     

     

    ———-

     

     

    Isn’t McCoist clearly in breach of Rule 71?

     

     

    I like the bit where it says ‘where remarks are brought to the Scottish FA’s attention, or of which the Scottish FA becomes aware, by whatever manner or means.’ It covers ‘we were told down the lodge’.

  11. Sandy Jardine

     

     

    “I know from talking to the supporters, and the feeling within the club is, that we can’t do any more than put our case forward,” he said. “If they [the SPL and SFA] are starting to ignore us and not take it into consideration then ok, we’ll go down a division.

     

     

    “Rangers are a special case mainly because of the size of the club within Scottish football and what it delivers.

     

     

    “We’ll get a bit of pain, but everybody else is going to get a bit of pain too.”

     

     

     

    I absolutely loathe these huns. Bury them on Sunday Celtic!!

  12. RalphWaldoEllison-is Neil Lennon Season 2011-12 on

    Can I confirm that both the Hately “column” and Jardine’s quote are genuine?

     

     

    I shouldn’t be, but I am always astounded of forehead when their arrogance is so blatant, ridingover everyone else on their white horse of entitlement and supremacy.

    While he’s at it he wants to change that photograph on his by line.

     

     

    It’s the kind of face you would see on the cadaver of someone who had died on the operating table whilst undergoing a sex change.

    Shared on twitter :-)

  23. Sandy Jardine rnagers ambassador and sitting in his club suit and tie stated.

     

     

    “Having gone round and met a lot of the supporters and people within the club, I think people are absolutely sick and tired of everybody having a kick at us when we’re down.

     

     

    “We are going to have a meeting with all the delegates from the whole of Britain, and some of them will be flying in from abroad, on Saturday.

     

     

    “Out of that, the supporters will take sanctions against clubs which we deem have been unfair to ourselves.

     

     

    “I’m not going to go into the actual details but we will probably announce that after the meeting with the supporters clubs.”

     

     

    “Also the Fighting Fund last night sanctioned money to fund a QC to fight the case against the SFA.

     

     

    “Everybody is sick and tired of just accepting everything that everybody is throwing at us and it’s about starting to fight back.”

     

     

    Now if he has not broke about a dozen of the SFA/SPL rules speaking as an official of rangers then we might as well chuck it in this country.

     

     

    Also nice to see a glimpse of the future under the SNP. Imagine when they have free reign to burn our Chapels and schools…
