BBC today revealed that the SFA’s legal team are examining responses from the Associations 93 clubs to a letter dated 9 March, which reminded clubs of their responsibility to record financial records with the SFA and asking them to declare they have complied over the last 10 years.
The inquiry was established after reports that Rangers had illegally registered players for over a decade, excluding payments which were not taxed. We can presume that as the legal team are investigating, there was at least one response which returned a noncompliance.
The SFA issued a deadline for responses of 6 April and under Article 86.1 any club not responding in a timely manner would be in breach, so it’s unclear why it has taken over two months to get to this stage, so why the legal team are only “examining responses”.
We look forward to hearing an early comment on this crucial matter from the executive. It is enormously unfortunate that the SFA were unable to inform their AGM of the findings on Wednesday. BBC report that the Association legal team have yet to report to the Compliance Officer, which is the next step.

Lambo was not red carded.

hows yer weather… I here its almost like Scotland down there
Kadlec. Crap defender.
But still love the motors.
Think Lambert was given a yellow and the huns were given a penalty.
Hansen apparently has tipped Deutschland,Portugal and the Netherlands to all make the last four from they same group. Is Alan a hun I ask ?
I think he was red carded and then given a right good whipping…

It was a yellow that Lambert got, just did a bit of research. I bow to VPs surperior knowledge. Hail hail!
PaddyG,
Ha… it’ll be a long-sleeved shirt for goin out then… and socks under yer sandles
How dare we accuse a Rangers player and manager
of acting in an unsportsmanlike manner.
Jeez ! You would think we had a chip on our shoulder.
If only we knew.

My younger borther got the boy at 16/1 after his first goal. Before the tournament he was 80/1 with some bookies.
He was over 200/1 on Betfair.
They don’t have chips on their shoulders, they have boulders, :-))

Cheers pal
Was starting to doubt myself even though we were at the the game.
I remember the Albertz/ lambert incidental well.
first off – it wasnt even a penalty – Albertz was on the way down long before Lambert was anywhere near him.
secondly Albertz should have been booked – he deliberately put his knee into Lamberts face – it might arguably have been a red as definitely intended to hurt him.
I recall watching it again a few times in Slo mo at home later – the image of Lambos teeth flying through the air in Slo mo will never leave me.
I seem to call someone – Brian Scott? – was sent back out onto the pitch later to try and retrieve them.

You think you’ve got it bad… my lady’s Spanish. I’m trying very hard not to get upset at the assumption that Ireland won’t get through the group. I happen to agree, but only to myself.
It’s like living with an English sports commentator.
Joachim Low assistant under huge criticism in Germeny after the conference in Poland.
When the German journalist asked the question what is the best to protect German team against Ronaldo’s free kicks, assistant answered- The helmets would be the best to protect my players.
Media in Germany can’t understand how Mr. Flick could say that? How he could say that in Poland?
To be honest with you, I think that was very funny joke about helmets.
Mr. Flick, or Herr Flick from Allo!Allo!
why no Chopin when reporting from Poland?
daft violins
Advocatt another dignified rat from that mob.
TOTAL WEE FAT SCUMBAG.
Lambo was lucky no tae see red efter assaultin the Ginger German’s knee wae his face…seriously: it makes you wonder just how biased our masonically loyal officials were back in the day- we the internet bampots sure have made something of a difference by the scrutiny of our lunatic spotlight…I better be going soon…the cider is sluicing its way through the frontal lobes…think ma brain cells are hivin a disco & am no invited.

VP,
its time you stopped sittin on the fence and said what you think
Charles Green lists savings of £7m on salaries as an advantage of a “newco” exit from administration in a proposal to potential investors in Rangers.
While he has stressed a preference to win creditors’ agreement, he outlines a lesser requirement to keep star players as one positive aspect of a newco.
Green is leading the consortium that is due to take over the club on Thursday.
In the event of a company voluntary arrangement being rejected, Green’s group will progress with newco plans.
Rangers are likely to be precluded from European competition for three years if they are reformed as a new company.
The business model, which describes the non-agreement of a CVA as a “very unlikely event”, also anticipates pre-tax profits of £2m for each of the first three years of a newco.
The Green consortium aim to raise up to £30m in fresh investment and plan to enhance advertising contracts, including shirt sponsorship and “stadium branding”, while efforts will be made to increase the club’s profile in Asia.
Meanwhile, the identities of those investing in Rangers will be revealed after the club’s creditors vote on a company voluntary arrangement proposal.
Green insists his backers will be made public once they know what route the takeover takes.
“We still don’t know if we are buying Rangers through a CVA or are we buying through a newco,” Green told BBC Scotland.
“Some of the investors do not want to be involved if it’s through a newco.
“We have already put some names out and by Thursday, once we know the outcome the creditors’ meeting, we’ll be able to provide all of the names of the backers behind this deal.
“Some of the people who have already put money in and are prepared to invest further are household names – certainly in their countries.”
The CVA requires the approval of 75% or more in value of the creditors, and more than 50% in value of the members, voting on the resolution.
Administrators Duff & Phelps have accrued operating charges and legal fees of over £5.5m and hold secure creditor status. The finance firm Ticketus is owed £26.7m, while HMRC is owed £21.5m in unpaid PAYE tax and National Insurance.
BBC Scotland has established that the CVA offers unsecured creditors between 8-9p in the pound in a best case scenario, which does not take into account the potential liability arising from a second tax case.
“We have stated publicly on a number of occasions that our preferred option is a CVA and it’s really down to HMRC,” added Green.
“HMRC have had the documentation for over a week so, with each day that passes, we have to assume that they are on board.
“It would be awful if they were to announce on the day that they were turning it down.
“If that’s their decision, God forbid, then tell us early please and put us out of our misery.”
Oh I’d rather be a Doctor than a Dick!!
Re the Lambert/Albertz incident. Albertz done Lambert and it was deliberate.
Albertz is the worst kind of hun. Novo.Amoruso,petite merde and those of that ilk who pandered to the hun mentality knowing full well it was in total conflict with what they were brought up as. how could you sleep as a man who had lowered yourself in such a way.
Think the worst decision I ever saw at the Govan Scrapyard was Thompson denying Lenny a penalty in front of the Copeland Rd stand.
A more obvious pen you’ll never see.

I don’t see anything controversial in the statement.
