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. sixtaeseven: No NewClub in SPL and it's Non-Negotiable! on

    Aye, in theory the two sides have to square up…

  2. I don’t know about all the comments about Greek philosophers, “as for me, all I know is that I know nothing” :-)

    Both bought at face value, excellent seats.

     

    A sincere thanks to all on CQN especially, Zbigniew, for there effort to help.

     

    Ironically it was a Celtic fan who got me the the first of the tickets.

    ‘Another cock up from that joke of a Keeper’

     

     

    Szczesny has never impressed me as a keeper. He doesn’t half commit some howlers in big games like his mistake allowing Spurs to beat Arsenal late last year

     

     

    He thinks he is a top keeper and that is his undoing at such a young age

    TMWTL

     

     

    He also spilled the ball for Birmingham to win the Carling cup last year as well.

     

    Total clown.

  13. How long did it take for Campbell Ogilvie to develop that gloating smirk he has permanently fixed on his smug visage?

     

     

    Practice makes perfect I suppose.

     

     

    We inherit the face we most wanted.
