Somewhere on an upper floor at Hampden SFA and SPL high office holders will be mulling over player contracts submitted by Rangers over the last decade, including for players still registered at the club.
They will compare what they have on file with yesterday’s revelations in The Sun. As far as the football authorities are concerned, everything will be in good order if Rangers submitted these side contracts, which featured appearance money, to the league and SFA.
But, if the club submitted these contracts to the football authorities, they would have to declare them to the tax authorities as income.
It would be good to hear from some of the very vocal former directors of Rangers on this subject, especially the one currently president of the SFA.
This matter has nothing to do with Our Hero, remember, who is currently drawing fire away from those who put Rangers into danger in the first place, however, Mr Whyte is wholly responsible for the “public censure” issued to Rangers by the Plus Stock Exchange today. The resultant £50k fine the least of the club’s worries.

Interested in the claim on the CSA site that says Craig Whyte was involved in the Davie Dodds transfer to the hun in 1989.
Can anyone shed any light on this?

If that is true then it confirms that Whytey is ‘the unacceptable face of Scottish football!’
Poor Davie.
Sounds like a Whyte Elephant.
Coat on…

Philvis..
me old fascist scum,
how about the workfare schme is introduced into Gove departments, such as the corporate tax investigation department, they wl not be paid a salery as such but will be offered a reward for uncovering any remuneration lost to HMRC as a result of their efforts, this reward could be a % of the final sum recovered.

I had a feeling maybe I knew you but I see you’re a bit older than me, I left in 88 for London and since 99 in the Swissland, very quiet life in middle Europe!!
I might be in Sicily later this year, I’ll give you a shout if it works out.

All
Left things very late as usual.
Anyone know where I might be able to procure 2 tickets for the Celtic End this weekend up at the Sheep Dip?
Any assistance appreciated.
Mucker
If the game goes ahead:-
1st half
Minute silence, black arm bands, everyone wearing black, oh danny bhoy, then some hymns….
2nd half
Change of clothes, and then start the party.
haha 20-20 vision
like it Paul
20’s plenty, indeed
:)
You couldn’t make this up. The official site of the Dark side is reporting that:
“The Rangers Charity Foundation has offered to forego the majority of its share of the proceeds following the crucial support the charity has received from the club over the last 10 years and funds raised will help secure the future of the Rangers ”
Dignified or what?

Nobody is older than the esteemed Starry! Ooh, he’s old!
Gregg,
“The Rangers Charity Foundation has offered to forego the majority of its share”
Did you know Charity organisations are required by law to pay only 7% of money collected.
So you migh ask, exactl how much as a % of money collected will they be keeping :o)
Would also be good to know who the directors\administrators of said organisation :oD
The aforementioned Mr D Dodds:

Rangers are now a charity case
Gregg 1526
Are they REALLY saying that their charitable arm will no longer give to charity?
Got a feeling the Charity Commissioners may be interested in that one…..
starry plough —–
That would be good.
If traveling with your weans——– it gets seriously hot ! [ starts in April / boiling by August /simmers down mid October ]
Dodds didn’t realise he was signing for RFC1872(in administration), he was told he was signing for some currant buns. Boom! Boom!

Ya Auld Codger yerself, there’s only six months between us..
Interesting post on follow follow. 4 days ago a poster came on and said John Brown told all gathered at a dinner that the Legneds game would no longer be used for charity but will be used for player wages. He also said a scythe being taken to the 1st team this week and it will be “unrecognisable”. Guy took pelters saying no way any of that could happen. Brown a muppet. The usual stuff…..
Well it seems he was right…bowls at the ready for the following cheerios
Aluko
Healy
Papac
Broadfoot
Bocanegra
Little
Lafferty
Naismith
Edu
Alexander
All the youth and I am also told McGregor has said he wants out.
Just received an email from the kid’s school regarding Work Experience placements for their 5th year pupils. The school is looking for employers to provide work experience to the kids ahead of them leaving the school in June.
I wrote back immediately telling them that clearly the School Careers Service was being run by some Objectivist nutter, but on reflection, I can always use a smaller child for the narrower lums.
Quandary.
Oh they also put the prices up for the game now Rangers are taking the gate…..

Confirmed, the Rangers ‘charity match’ proceeds will be donated/forgone by the Rangers Charity Foundation to Rangers FC PLC (In Administration)
Just when you thing they couldn’t get any lower this has to be an all time historic marker of contemptuous behaviour.
To be fair this is a dig at the Club. I just spoke to a blue nose mate who is totally and utterly disgusted.
Make up your own line on the cost of this ‘marvelous gesture’. Feel free to throw in ‘Yorkhill’, ‘CHAS’, Unicef, Oxfam, and any other organisation Rangers have championed as ‘partners’ in recent years.
There appears not even to be dignity in death.
ROGUE LEADER 1550
Hmmmmm.
That leaves them somewhat bereft.
Sally and Schnozzle might fill a few gaps between them,haha,and I’m sure Jim Stewart can still dive for a save as badly as he ever did-Charlie Nick,Ibrox ’83,anyone-but is McDowell any good?
At this rate, CW might have to do a Michael Knighton and turn out himself!
So they have screwed the tax payer, now a charity. What next? Grave robbing for gold teeth?

Does anyone know if a neutral observer is involved in this SFA inquiry . I just have an awful buzzing in my ear the past two weeks .sounds kinda like a shredder to me .
jimtim
BTW does anyone know what football station hately is the pundit for. seems to me he shouldn,t be allowed to comment after his bigot views the other day .
Ron Bacardi – good point he would have been but a wean at that point. Just a very unusual claim, I can only think that Dodds must have had an agent/handler with the same name at that time and it is a coincedence.
