SFA lawyers examine illegal registration responses

1119

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.

  1. Anyone remember Joe Miller dummying the linesman in his own half after being called offside when waiting for the out ball then jumping up and down like a two year old, going nuts. I was doing the same in the Jungle and so was everyone. What are they like eh? The linesman did well to keep a straight face I am sure as far as he was concerned he was just doing his job as a MIB.

    he’s obviously using an iPhone

     

     

    I think he means “jobby”

  3. The Rangers 3 Dundee Utd 3 league game in 07/08 was completely surreal in the biased refereeing stakes.

    WWII, their team called tank, they are in Poland.

    Agree.

     

    Could not believe my eyes.

     

    BJH was asked if he questioned

     

    the integrity of the sinister minister.

     

    If we knew now.

    Dozens of absolute shockers over the years. I agree that the Lennon non penalty was the worst along with Maloney being halved in the box by (was it Weir?). These were never honest mistakes, just blatant cheating. Going back to the 1970 cup final…Bobby Clark rolls the ball out which Lennox intercepts and scores…Rh Davidson..no goal..This was after Murdoch couldnt get his arm out the way of a cross…pen given and scored. The list is endless in fact while writing this another 6 or 7 have come to mind……..hh

    All the club tunes, the classic ones!!!

     

     

    In fact seen as I’m p@@&ed, think I’ll put them on just now.

  8. Anyone thought about writing a book on dodgy decisions awarded to the hun ? Would make war and peace seem positively lightweight!!!!!!

     

     

    Ding dong the hun is dead.

     

     

    Bazzabhoy…………………..no long til judgement day son. All our prayers answered.

     

    Who in their right mind would mourn the passing of a sectarian and corrupt organisation?

     

     

    We are the pepil? They are obscene sonnnnnn.

    Bob Geldof looks like my brother. No, really!

     

    It’s a rat trap Billy and you’ve been caught. :)

     

     

    Buttons

  10. The Andy Davies “penalty” for the Huns at Tynecasrle was a shocker. As was the one Dallas gave them in the original “shame game”

     

     

    Both refs just pointing to the spot and hoping a bit of argy bargy in the box will counts a a foul.

     

     

    Actually, Dallas was ref in both games!!

    The Lenny one sticks in my head because even from my seat I could see the contact and probably because it’s quite recent. A decision that defines the MIB.

    Odds today were 11/5 draw and 6/4 Russia. First parts of my 8 fold accumulator up.

    Do you mean you never believed me when I told you all about the conspiracy?

     

    I emailed the sfa today enquiring of Mr Regan when the enquiry into President Campbell took place and to whom the findings were revealled to. I am certain he will get back to me and the Greek guy Socrates will sscore a hat trick in the next game versus Czech Republic, even though he is suspended.

  13. the long wait is over on

    Guys

     

     

    In all honesty can any decision be worse than Collums decision to give Broadfoot a penalty when , literally , his back was turned to the incident?

     

     

    Currently my top decision of all even where the number of possible decisions to choose from is many, many , many x10 to the power of X , where X is large and positive.

  14. Evening bhoys, hot and hun free.

     

     

    Half decent game that was.

     

    Sammi could have had a couple, would have made him worth mills more, but hey ho, some you score, some you don’t, his other play was good tho.

     

     

    Alan Hansen is a true bloo hun.

    Talkin of referees, it was TET’s mantra that; you sort them, you sort the game.

     

     

    Where is TET, he locked himself in his wine cellar?

  16. Marrakesh Express on

    A non hun game shocker woild be John Doyle getting sent off at Somerset park for lamping the ref with a 25 yard shot.

     

    Even Messi couldnt be that accurate but the wee ref took the cream puff and. pointed to the tunnel as he got up off the canvass.

    Dallas desicion was right after he got hit with the coin…. it was the most blatant giruy moment ever…….he didn’t care if it was a penalty he was giving one all day long….move along Timmy…we make the decisions

    But the bold Charlie would co-opt George onto the board of the Two Rabbit company and they split everything 50 – 50. As long as George brought the rabbits. :)

  26. Worst refereeing decisions?

     

     

    Johnny Doyles sending off for “hitting” the ref with the baw.

  27. Emus

     

    I never truly realised the extent the bigotry that existed

     

    in this country that i love.

  28. Or what about the Bear stealing the shy against thems in the Cup Final for Wee Joe to run on and score…..

  29. Burghbhoy

     

     

    7 days till judgment day I reckon. Straight to St. Phil’s to celebrate!!

     

     

    Not one of them have apologised, all this it wasn’t us so don’t punish us.

     

     

    Ok let’s play that game then animals, you don’t want those titles, cups and millions of pounds then.

     

     

    Give them back and maybe the p@$; being spouted about not punishing you for the cheating by the not so bionic man may be plausible.

     

     

    Hate them.

    I used to think that they were a series of of individual bad decisions but that there was no conspiracy. Now I’m not so sure. O.K. -yes I am! IT’S A CONSPIRACY! It would make a good book.

  32. Che

     

    Agree. The worst decision ever.

     

    But it was not based on football.

     

    That was pure sectarianism.
