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.

    Did you know that Du Wei holds the Celtic record for playing two games in one day?

     

     

     

    1916: Celtic play two games in one day due to fixture congestion. They defeated Raith 6-0 at home before travelling to Motherwell where they record a 3-1 victory. Joe Dodds scored in both games

     

     

    maybe!! maybe not!!

  12. That was a good move there wae the Greeks: Annusmirabilis beautiful pass from the back tae his cousin Annushorribilis, then Syphilis sprayed it tae Samaras who went aw witless like Big Phyllis that time the Polis chapped her door aboot that stolen necklace…nonetheless I can see them still winning this, but they would probably be happy with a draw after the start they had.

    Where has McGinn ended up. Quite liked him although probably not good enough for our starting 11 or even the bench so best for his career he leaves.Hope he finds a decent berth somewhere

    Would have loved Greece to win but given how it started that will do me.

  16. Snake Plissken on

    FT 1-1

     

     

    In truth I thought Poland started well but the Greeks were better in the second half.

     

     

    Very interesting result for the group.

    Not true.

     

     

    In 1916. on the last day of the season, Celtic beat Raith Rovers & came straight out of Celtic Park & went though to Motherwell to beat the Steel Men at Fir Park.

     

    10 of the players who played in the first game, turned out again in the second.

    Hmm, given that it’s valued in the accounts at 100M ‘for insurance purposes’ and that they’re only going to get 5.5M for it, you can imagine how someone might be tempted……
