SFA finally acknowledge Rangers EBT issue

1494

Stewart Regan today gave a welcome update on the SFA’s on-going investigation into Rangers.  In response to Hugh Adam’s comments in today’s Daily Mail, Regan said:

“We are, however, aware of the most recent allegations made against Rangers FC today by a former director of the club. We shall investigate this matter thoroughly before making any further comment.”

SFA president, Campell Ogilvie, was general secretary and director of Rangers from 1978 until 2005. News broke about HMRC’s dispute over Rangers Employment Benefit Trust in 2010, you knew then, I knew then, the SFA knew then, but Ogilvie was subsequently elevated to the role of SFA president in 2011.  He is still on the SFA board.

We have waited almost two years the hear the SFA would investigate this matter. Now, with all the old certainties crumbling down around them, they realise they must act.

Can I be the first to congratulate Dundee FC on winning the Scottish Cup in 2003.

    I alluded to this track last week – how did Killie get this before we did?

     

    Hang the DJ!

    Quick quiz : at the time this song was out (mid-late 90s) the Celtic Park DJ was Tiny Tim. Why did he get sacked?

  2. Tarrant,

     

     

    Not sure what words were mis-spelled :o) but a ‘well said’ from me! As I said earlier, I am not sure where the protection campaign can go with this now? It may be hard to imagine – but personally I think they are finished! Caputo! You heard it here first! :o)

    Bobby was a keen bird watcher, like your father.

     

     

    His life could have and should have been an easier affair.

     

     

    He didn’t pick any fights but loved his people and decided that he would do what he could.

     

     

    He could never have imagined his role in Irish history. He is up there with any of the world’s freedom fighters.

    Fine fettle. Absofenianlutely.

     

     

    However, I’m living in Fife, not a very creative place; but they have given us Big Country and part of the Betas. And a world-beating chippy in Ainster. However, you travel over either FR bridge from Embra and you travel one mile north in distance and 100 years back in time. I deal with huns who are so backward they think John Knocks was a miner who battered papes…maybe Fife’s more creative than I originally thought.

     

     

    Anyway, on the theme of evolution, here’s a band who made a point of visiting Rosslyn Chapel because they thought it might challenge the way they viewed Western civilisation.

    I mentioned Quiet Man a few times earlier in the Evening.

     

     

    It is always going to be my Dads favourite film.

     

     

    Justice is all that is required. Until the playing field is level the battle is not won.

  6. For the spread betters……

     

     

    Total Goal Minutes are sitting @ 140 to buy. I can see Aiberdeen scoring later on today which is a TGM betters dream.

     

     

    Celtic will score 4 IMO at least.

  7. petec,

     

     

    For the sake of arguments, let’s say I’m a scientific genuis who can keep up to date with 2 conversations at the same time while battling the forces of..well, the blog comments.

     

     

    this is a silly conversation

  8. petec,

     

     

    humble apologies,

     

     

    ive had a little too much to drink,

     

     

    i think being witness to the kojo v blog fight the other day has me a bit worked up, hence my clique comment. i still think the blog has a clique, to be fair its a clique on my side so i’m happy. what annoys me is the dont interact with anyone on the blog that asks any of them a question. It really annoys me.

    I’ve not been on the site much this week, so I’m introgued by the notion of a Kojo v blog fight. Please tell me the blog won, and that Kojo’s not coming back.

    If there is a clique, its a very nice clique and is a Credit to this site.

     

     

    Paul67 paid the Most Amazing Tribute to his Dad when he said he Never took Life, too Serious.

     

     

    Left and Right Talking and Falling out. Stupid. There is not a lot of difference between us all really.

     

     

    If only we had politicians like Paul, it widnae happen because he wouldn’t be corrupted.

  11. Traditional goodnight link. Great song, greatest singer.

     

     

    Apologies that the link has an embedded ad; however, it also has the lyrics which makes it worth the shitey ad; a poem put to music, perfectly.

  12. petec,

     

     

    My dad’s last breath was expelled typing his thoughts of Celtic on this blog before the ambulance came.. His username is lost except to me. Paul & martin’s ethos, the Celtic family’s ethos is carried out every day on this blog. My point is, there is an element of the old guard who are either blind to the blog or just down right ignorant to a direct question.

    Matthew 6:4

     

     

    So that your charity may be in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you in public.

     

     

    The Lord is in control.

  14. petec,

     

     

    Why are you quoting me scripture?

     

     

    I am not religious. If I was to explain to you my thoughts of the human race origin would that make me less of a Celtic fan?

     

     

    I respect the faith, I choose my own beliefs

    cheers thats pretty offensive, way to open up the arms of the Celtic family

  17. Beram is Celtic’s best Central midfielder.

     

     

    If you followed things closer you would realise these litle nuances.

     

     

    Why you keep nibbling away like a house mouse is worrying.

    The Scottish Premier League revealed it will discuss introducing new, tougher rules on financial fair play at a meeting of all 12 member clubs on Monday. The discussion could see the new sanctions introduced for clubs who end up in financial trouble because of overspending or trying to gain an unfair advantage through excessive spending. “If agreement in principle is reached this could mean our clubs voting on new, tougher rules on financial fair play at a general meeting either in April or July,” said Neil Doncaster, chief executive of the SPL

    Hun horse left about 20 years ago.

     

    Mr. Ogilvie,being one of the keyholders, could surely not have been unaware of the unlocked stable.

     

    HOWEVER,no action taken until now.

     

    Why only now is there sudden burst of clean corporate governance?

     

    Fear.
