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.

    – > Sorry, was away for a bit. Australia in terms of football is a team I really dislike. Muscat, for 1, Craig Moore for 2, Vidmar for 3, but also their approach to the game. I love Rugby, but I don’t like seeing it on a football field, they were ‘grapple tackling’ round the shoulders through the last world cup, and i find their style to be a great example of anti-football. Also – their ‘fans’. if you have ever attended one of their matches in europe, you will know they are followed by a clan of london-dwelling expats, who don’t know the first thing about football, except what they are spoon-fed by Sky tv. they dribble on about the epl, have no understanding at all of football club culture, and also think that they have a god given entitlement to be great at any sport. They are utterly plastic, and jump on any ‘aussie’ bandwagon when their team is doing well. Their rugby supporters … are arguably worse.

    your pathetically veiled suggestion that I am a hun.

     

     

    After 7 or so years on this site, I don’t need to hear guff like that from you.

    I see they had the polis giving advice on security to the three guys intimidated by angry rANGERs fans- surely NFL is the expert on dealing with these halfits

    – > If i misunderstood your post, i apologise. otherwise….

  8. Sorry Oglach – I thought you suggested that my apparent ‘dislike’ of australia was because it had too many Tims living there.

     

     

    Our last posts crossed, but as you can see – sorry if you meant something else. i am a celtiuc fan, so probably by definition, a bit paranoid!

  9. Sorry for asking a random question, but does anyone know of any UK ‘driveaway’ companies. I am looking for a cheap way back to Derry from London. Thanks

  10. What are ‘Good’ Rangers people?

     

     

    I automatically think of the Cafe Scene in Easy Rider:

     

     

    Hooper, Joe Ledley & Sammi walk into a cafe in Cumnock.

     

     

    Sheriff: What the Hell is this?

     

    Redneck: You name it & I’ll throw stones at it sheriff.

     

    Triuble makers.

     

     

    Girls: Look what just walked in.

     

    Some Tims.

     

    I like the one with the tri-colour strip.

     

    One of them’s got look hair.

     

     

    Joe: Blublublublublu…tang.

     

    Hooper: You said what?

     

    Joe: Don’t look in the corner.

     

     

    Yahoos: Look at the one with the crucifix.

     

    Is that a girl?

     

    I think she’s purdy.

     

    We’ll put them in the womens cell.

     

    Put em’ in a cage n pay an admission to see em’.

     

     

    Joe: These are what are known as country witticisms.

     

     

    Yahoo’s: At first i thought his mother had been scared by a gorilla.

     

    Like a bunch of refugees from a gorilla love in.

     

    A gorilla couldn’t love that.

     

    Neither could the mother.

     

    They’re Green.

     

    Shuks…they’re white.

     

    Your colour blind.

     

    what do think we should do with them?

     

    Don’t think they’ll make the parish line.

     

     

    Tims: Lets Split.

     

     

    Redneck Yahoos: They’re some fancy queer taig’s…with em’ tri-colour strips…

    They may well be halfits or even halftits but that doesn’t make them any the less sinister. LOL

    No problems had me worried. it was a tounge in cheek comment certainly not meant to cause offense in any manner? Don’t think i have seriously called accused anyone of being a hun on CQN.

  17. tomthelennytim on

    Barcabhoy’s post on RTC is exactly the kind of thing I need when I am getting pished off listening to the Hun apologists in the media. As they attempt to deflect and deny, and as they muddy the waters and point the finger anywhere but at themselves I get annoyed, angry and concerned for justice and the future.

     

    Then, once in a while, someone posts a few sentences that remind me exactly where we are in the state of play. The Huns are screwed beyond hope and salvation.

     

    Cheers Barcabhoy, I needed that.

    – > no probs! What did you actually mean by ‘too many timmy types’?

  19. Barcabhoy – Fantastic post

     

     

    My only sympathy for Rangers, and this is really the only piece of sympathy I have for Admin FC is summed up perfectly in Barcabhoy’s final sentence.

     

     

    The ‘enterprise’ culture that creates businessmen today, people are encouraged to dodge creditors time and again with little or in many cases no penalty by the prevailing laws of the period.

     

     

    Directors are allowed to liquidate businesses time after time. such that surely after a period of years, these directors will become sociopaths, psychopaths or schizophrenics even if they were altruistic people when they began their journey.

  21. Anybody any idea of when theFTT verdict will be released that will proclaim TFOD the biggest cheats in British football history?

     

     

    I mean we’re running out of April now………

  22. What a first half of football from San Mamés.

     

     

    Athletic are excellent. As a club and as a team with cracking fans aswell.

     

    Brilliant atmosphere.

     

     

    If there was no Celtic you would just have to move to Bilbao.
