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.

Twice a week I deliver curries/food/dummies etc in the north of Glasgow, to some of the most deprived areas in Western Europe. People open doors and the stench would knock you on your back. I can see the wallpaper falling from the walls as a result of damp. I can see plug sockets hanging precariously from their holes in the wal as children crawl around closebyl. I witness old people having to climb up 30 stories because the lifts are once again out of order. They walk up stairwells littered with needles, pools of urine and the flotsam and jetsom
of a modern ocean.
These aren’t the conditions that 21st Century Scots should be living in but they are and they’re doing it while greedy, selfish individuals make more and more.

Apologies I had to post that from my phone while I found the charger for this blinkin’ laptop.

awesome :oD)))))))
Philvis,
You believe in freedom of the individual, no?
Does this include freedom from the shackles of religious morality?
Genuine question ;)

Yet they have money to order food delivered to their door.
My grandparents shared an outdoor toilet with 12 other families, and would never have dreamed of being rich enough to order hot food, cooked to order, and driven to their single-room abode. (thumbsup)
Phil, baby
You fantastically, yet somewhat predictably, miss my point.
You see the rise of China as proof positive of the ongoing success of ‘the free market economy’
Just akin to cigarette sales in the third world.
But you miss the fact that everything is exhaustive.
You coyly refute it.
Yet the biggest billion dollar growth is the mineral bounty brought about by global warming…
The old fable goes that a ring inscribed ‘This too shall pass’ has the power to make a rich man sad and a poor man happy – is the ultimate in finite mate.
Everything ends.
Now, if I’m lying? I’m flying…

Yup.
God has given us free will for a reason. (thumbsup)

I was thinkin about that tonight.
Classic TV it was. The real prelude to all the reality cop stuff.
But obviously the young Thatcher had nowt to hide!…..
Philvis,
So where should the line be drawn against free will?
How far is an individual allowed to go when doing what he wants?
ulysses mcghee – But you miss the fact that everything is exhaustive.
It aint though. Not till we exhaust our imagination to create new resources.
Yet the biggest billion dollar growth is the mineral bounty brought about by global warming…
Eh? When? Are you aware that there has been no recorded global warming since 1998?
Everything ends.
Sure. On that note, Keynes was right. (thumbsup)
Fortunes Favour Mibbes – How far is an individual allowed to go when doing what he wants?
If it involves coercion of any sort, it is an infringement on another person’s free will and should be stopped. (thumbsup)
you have greedy people bad people arrogant people then you have philvisreturns

I admire your optimism, and its true that, in this country at least, we have seen living standards rise for some. I don’t suffer from Malthusian despair, and I don’t suffer from a fateful hope either.
Certainly in my family, the majority of whom came over in the famine, the current generation is unrecognisably far better off. They worked in the pits for shit, through the generations to my Dad. I was the first to escape it. Pit safety, and then pay, gradually improved only through the pressure applied by the union movement. Without that, free trade and capitalism would have continued, for the benefits of the shareholders, but at a cost to the workers which you and I can only imagine.
Laissez-Faire also conducted the horrific opera of the famine which drove them here.
Capitalism and the free market have no conscience nor soul, maybe other systems don’t have it either, but I know this is wrong.
philvisreturns @ 01:14
Admire you dealing with all the questions so promptly. Interested in developping this one though if you can humour me.
The law is coercion, and quite necessary. Are you saying it shouldn’t apply ?
philvisreturns, just kidding but why dont you come on here as son of thatcher
you will be very popular honest

I’m going to step out of this as I don’t wish you to feel that you’re getting it from all angles but jeezo mate you make it hard :-)))

Thanks, I did mention the Frankfurt School a few times on here a couple of years ago when I was actively looking at things. Theres a lot of dark things out there and there is only so much reading you can do into that stuff. You really do need the full armour on when researching it.
I’ve been guided back to start researching again. Prometheus is an unbelievable coincidence.
Thank You for the congrats about the wee man/main man.
philvisreturns
I doubt watching Prometheus in 3d will even compete with such awesome fight scenes.

You are only scratching an itch at the moment, IMO.

Philvis,
whoa, you’re gettin it sharp
as with HT, I’m gonna step out as well
A wee song for ya, written for Che, but I think you’ll like the tune

I keep seeing and hearing this phrase about us being better off than our grandparents, great grandparents etc and that this is a good thing.
My grandparents were amongst the happiest people I’ve ever known. This is an absolute myth that perpetuates myth that wealth generates happiness.
petec,
Feels more like a 40 yr old scab amigo.
I’m afraid,regardless of God, we’re surrounded by a ballooning mass of self satisfying morosity. In Scotland we can see it more as it was initiated here early days, pivotal to the Empire, after it discovered Solidarity, and then all of a sudden for some reason, was infested by division in the name of Harland Wolffe. The rest is history.
Philivis has left the building :(
Why do right wingers do that when the questions don’t match the ones in the newspapers???
TSD
The Frankfurt School- ??? Secret Organisations hiding in plain sight, eh?
You have recently taken to citing some dubious research (??) which, in lieu of evidence, settles for re-inforcing the opinions of those who are like minded. You did not even read the last submission you made to me but imagined that the American History Prof. had validated your view because someone told you that he had.
Lazy, Lazy research.
And now you give us Mr. Matthews who presents Willi Munzenberg’s death as perpetrated by Stalin’s agents. No alternative view is even considered far less dismissed. Straw arguments devoid of evidence to give it any substance. In the fog of war, both the Nazis and the NKVD were after him. Who won the race? Frankly no one knows for sure but only one narrative suits your viewpoint so let’s just ignore the other one.
If you continue on this slide you’ll be citing Chris Torey’s holocaust denier, Bishop Williamson, next.
So long as you guys are around, I’ll sleep easy on any threat of relegation.
Off to my bed now to ponder on the iniquities of the Second Vatican Council and pine for the glory days of 2.4 children, apple pie, and red scares.
Don’t have nightmares, right wing kids! :-)

So the fact that there are combines employing ice climbers from Europe to secure climb routes up and down hills and mountains and cliff faces in regions which up until now they had never had access to, to safely grab minerals proves there has been no global warming?

JimmyQuinnsBits – Capitalism and the free market have no conscience nor soul, maybe other systems don’t have it either, but I know this is wrong.
No “system” has a conscience or soul, beyond what the people who participate in it give it. (thumbsup)
Fortunes Favour Mibbes – The law is coercion, and quite necessary. Are you saying it shouldn’t apply ?
No, I’m not an anarchist. I’m quite willing to subscribe to the noble fiction of Hobbes’/Locke’s/Rousseau’s social contract. Especially in a democratic system where we have legitimate, non-violent means of effecting legislative change. (thumbsup)

Aint nobody forcing you to buy an HD TV, install indoor plumbing, etc. Be as happy as your grandparents if you wish. (thumbsup)
Rioskorrie – I absolutely love William Shatner’s “Rocketman”. (thumbsup)

Nah, the world has been gradually warming since the little ice age. It’s the scientists who monitor these things who say there’s been no measurable global warming since 1998. (thumbsup)
China was in a much better state than it is in now before crappy capitalisim gripped its demonic claws into it and that fraud of a party that dares to call itself a comunist party. China needs a revolution to restore real communism, to shut down western influence in her affairs.
Under unjust sanctions by devils like Mcarthy and Nixion the dixson it had it hard but back then it had free health care and equality for all now it is a crap place to live just like america where the 1% reside with no tax, private health care and education whilst the other 99% are subjected and degraded and are too thick to realize it or too weak to fight the soldiers for we fear death to much these days to do what the russians did to the tzar. Bugger Meritoricacy because no one works 100 millions time harder than the rest, in fact bankers, and stock brokers are scum of the earth, bin men should earn more than them because they contribute FAR more to society than the market class fools, seriously Castro had the right idea about what to do with capitalists and fascists.
I hope one day for a global international socalist dictatorship, people are too greedy to rule themselves in a manner that benefits all so those of us who care about egalitarianism should be the ones to have the power as quite frankly I care not a jot for the 40% of the population who are ruled by selfish greed and desire they should have no voice they do not deserve once.
People like philvis are mentally limited morons, no offense but yer love of killing people and denying them an education coz they don’t have money or leting em starve to death coz they lose there jobs makes you no better hittler. Tories = Nazies, Neo liberalism = Nazism and America = Fascist society, all be it obama tries to make it a tiny bit less fascist but is confined by the system he works under where it the only freedom is the freedom to pass up your responsibilites to your fellow man and the freedom for the rich to leech of the rest of us and keep us down trodden. FCUK the bourgeois there is no such thing as a company that belongs to a nation, companies just use nationalism to get goverments to give them more money or tax breaks, Lets break the Multi National companies and lets bring back minning and lets bring back union power.
I don’t give a crap what the markets think of the greece primeminster and he should hold firm and call the EU out on the anti democratic IMF dictatorship it has become.
Bugger buisness and its total control over world politics. Solidarity with the Greek people becoming the victims of market forces and other countries failings. And Sky can suck it too. Hollande is the prime minster and he will tax the rich 75% and I want that every way. Philvis feck you and your big house, pay some more tax, you have more than enough cash to do so. Course you’d rather you had a Nice car than a poor wane in Shettelson had something to eat cause there parents can’t find work coz your precious capitalisim is ripping itselft to pieces like Marx always said it would. Coz its not in companies intrest to employ anyone, if they could they would employ NO ONE.
They would use robots. And Like I have said before thats why automated tills in super markets should be banned, anything that saves companies money and stops them taking on staff should be made ILLEGAL.
Philvis @ 01:29
Is no answer amigo.
You either appreciate that free will has to be restricted or you don’t.
The boundaries of those restrictions can be easily applied using basic morality. The desire to skirt them says a lot about the character of said skirter.
can i ask a serious question?
who else is bored with the rangers stuff now?
i am, a lot of Celtic fans over here are as well
and that worries me
do you think thats what the SPL, SFA the media and all wanted?
get us bored/caught off guard and then slap us with, rangers are in the Spl next season – enjoy? and its too late to do anything now?
i hope not
but its starting to look that way
Fortunes Favour Mibbes – You either appreciate that free will has to be restricted or you don’t.
And here was me, naively thinking that laws promulgated by a democratic, pluralistic State, were slightly more legitimate than the demands of a gang of robbers.
Well colour me Rand. (thumbsup)
Philvis,
ah come on, I was giving it up… and by the way, thats what I was saying by my comment. My point, badly made, was more about laissez-faire and the free market – under that philosophy intervention could never have happened. Was that right?
Would a Socialist government have intervened? I would say yes, but then I would, wouldn’t I.
A quick flick through the blog there and it looks like I’m gonna be missing a decent wee debate tonight.
Pity,but duty calls.
Enjoy yourselves,and nae fa’in’ oot!
