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.

    If they liquidate, will D&P be paid, this is where I just don’t understand what D& P are up to. They are , in short, doing diddly squat, but as the current co heads towards liquidation, how will they be paid ? – me confused

     

     

    Does anybody else think the BBC have got onto this story like proper journos now and want to distance themselves from succlent lambos ? More important now that AT (C4) is caught up with the syrian situation.

  3. Just can’t get excited about the Dutch. Aside from Van Persie’s striking and Sneijder’s craft, it’s a very measured, arrogant type of football, almost as if they think they’re better than they are. The two defensive players, van Bommel and de Jong kill momentum

     

     

    As with much of my CQN predicting, look out for a Dutch goal soon.

    It is not only cold and miserable to sleep under a London (or any other city) bridge…it is a highly dangerous proposition; there are the braying hordes of drunken City boys who like to urinate on the homeless,and in the worst cases,set them on fire.

     

    So,for the dwp to sanction a dubious charity that puts the disadvantaged in that risky space is tantamount to negligence,possibly criminal.

     

    But,hey,that’s life in the UKplc in 2012.

     

    And for us more fortunate,on our comfy sofas,in our decent homes,there’s a giant-killing game on!

    Sorry for butting in:

     

     

    D&P will be paid, they will get their cut from the £8.5 million that Green is allegedly putting in. I believe footballing debt will be paid, they will get their cut being a preferred creditor and what is left will get split between the remaining creditors. However, as is normal practice in the circumstances creditors will challenge D&P’s fees. Not just for these reasons but there is no chance of a CVA being agreed.

    The blue knights was I believe always a sop to Sir David Murray. Paul Murray never criticised David Murray. Paul Murray must have new the hun sale price before Craig Whyte bought them and could not raise the necessary funds then. Was he even interested ?

     

     

    It gave the bears belief that like minded individuals were waiting in the wings to buy them. It also helped to destroy Craig Whyte and avoid Sir David Murray inspection.

     

     

    I believe that Sir David Murray still has pokers in the fire with regards liquidation and stands to gain from this and Johnstone, Paul Murray and Dave King suspect this also.

CELT55 I Heard the aberdeen fan to ,he was right in what he said no special treatment for rangers ,you break the rules no ifs or buts ,pay your dues take your punishment ,then start all over , jim spence then asked the aberdeen supporter what about the genuine rangers fan who see there club is heading.the guy said them fans are just glory hunters.

    On holiday last week i got chatting to a guy who was a Feyenoord fan

     

     

    We got chatting about the Euros and Holland’s chances of winning it. He said the biggest danger to Holland’s chances would be Van Marwijk due to his insistence on playing 2 defensive midfielders and also playing his ‘pet’. His ‘pet’ was none other than Robin Van Persie

     

     

    The Dutch fans believe (and the stats prove it) Huntelaar is the better finisher for the national side

    Has Mr. Seedorf signed for us yet? Just asking like.

     

    BRB rambling again.

  14. On the CVA proposal. It has been said that if it were agreed, they would be back to square one when the FTT announce their result. They will not be back at square one.

     

     

    Something that irks me and I have posted this before. The BTC has not been quantified in the proposal but this has been declared as being owed by HMRC; this is fact and is owed. All that has to be confirmed are the penalties and interest. I am unsure what the BTC was but it is in the region of £28 million; this figure has to be added to ALL declared figures quoted in the proposal. The proposal records that HMRC are owed £21,376,767.00.

     

     

    For the purposes of the CVA it should record that HMRC are owed circa £49 million; this is the figure that HMRC will have to considered when making their decision on whether they accept CVA.

     

     

    If HMRC accept the CVA with or without the BTC figure recorded they will be accepting circa £4.5 million for everything they are owed; this is based on 9p in the £1. However, if D&P are paid £5.5 million and the football creditors their money the £4.5 million will become considerably less.

     

     

    Conclusion:

     

     

    Do I think HMRC will accept maximum of £4.5 million for a debt of £49 million when Green stuffs away season ticket money in an ESCROW account and pockets money from the sale of new players, Sky money etc. I do not think so, they can and will realise more by liquidating and selling assets.

     

     

    Keep the Faith!

  15. I’m watchin’ a series called ‘Justified’…set in Kentucky…it’s a whole other world,yet it exists a relatively short flight away,they speak English (sort of),and I was just thinkin’ that that is where the Jubblie queen spends a goodly part of her time on her quest for equine perfection.

     

    And yet she is content for some of her ‘subjects’ to be severely maltreated by her ‘government’.

     

    Peculiar world we live in.

    The Dutch are doing what the Dutch are best at…starting a fight in an empty house. The laid back, liberal, anything goes image that they successfully portray does not find it’s way into their football team. Dennis Law was once asked that, given the talent that the Scotland team had, why didn’t they win anything? his answer? ‘…simple, there’s too many scots in it!’

     

    The BBC commentators seem obsessed with RVP and van Bommel.

    I must admit the only time I came across Paul Harvey was I was driving across the States, or to be more accurate, when I was somewhere out in the sticks. If I am not mistaken he was always on what we call over here as the medium wave, but what is known over there as AM radio, a wavelength also popular with what I would call religious folks. As you know, if you drive any distance, you will lose the AM station you were listening to, only to be replaced by another, usually from a town called Elkton, a town with more churches than schools, or something like that. Anyways, the only constant on your travels in the good ol’ USA, was the idiosyncratic views of Paul Harvey himself, a voice you would never lose, no matter how far you travelled, or at least until you reached Philadelphia!
