SFA set for expulsion from Fifa unless it acts against Rangers

315

Rangers administrators have today gone to the Court of Session in an attempt to overturn the recent disciplinary action imposed on the club by the SFA.  Paul Clark said:

“The Club started proceedings at the Court of Session today in an attempt to challenge the imposition by an SFA Judicial Panel of a player signing embargo.

“The process will continue at the court on Tuesday and it is the Club’s position that the Judicial Panel did not have the powers to impose such a sanction.

“The Club and the administrators are grateful for the support of the Rangers Fighting Fund on this matter.”

It is prohibited by Fifa for a club to take its association to the civil courts.  Fifa rules dictate that the national association must expel any club which takes this action.  In December last year the international body threatened to expel the Swiss FA from world football unless it set a deadline to expel Sion after the club took action in its local civil court.

This action can surely only be to provoke the SFA into bringing this sorry saga to an end by kicking them out of the game before Duff and Phelps are forced to padlock the doors due to their own failures.

Unfortunately, President What-school-did-you-go-to is still in residence at the SFA, so it’s unlikely that we will see any clear action from Hampden to calm supporters of other clubs or the Scotland national team.

    Well they closed down the auto plant in Mahwah late that month

     

    Ralph went out lookin’ for a job but he couldn’t find none

     

    He came home too drunk from mixin’Tanqueray and wine

     

    He got a gun shot a night clerk now they call’m Johnny 99

     

     

    Down in the part of town where when you hit a red light you don’t stop

     

    Johnny’s wavin’ his gun around and threatenin’ to blow his top

     

    When an off duty cop snuck up on him from behind

     

    Out in front of the Club Tip Top they slapped the cuffs on Johnny 99

     

     

    Well the city supplied a public defender but the judge was Mean John Brown

     

    He came into the courtroom and stared young Johnny down

     

    Well the evidence is clear gonna let the sentence son fit the crime

     

    Prison for 98 and a year and we’ll call it even Johnny 99

     

     

    A fistfight broke out in the courtroom they had to drag Johnny’s girl away

     

    His mama stood up and shouted “Judge don’t take my boy this way”

     

    Well son you got a statement you’d like to make

     

    Before the bailiff comes to forever take you away

     

     

    Now judge judge I had debts no honest man could pay

     

    The bank was holdin’ my mortgage and they was takin’ my house away

     

    Now I ain’t sayin’ that makes me an innocent man

     

    But it was more ‘n all this that put that gun in my hand

     

     

    Well your honor I do believe I’d be better off dead

     

    and if you can take a man’s life for the thoughts that’s in his head

     

    then won’t you sit back in that chair and think it over judge one more time

     

    and let ‘em shave off my hair and put me on that execution line

    It was a holiday of obligation that day, cant remember which one. Anyway all RC schools would have been closed, as mine’s was. It was a beautiful day but not as hot as today in Glasgow.

  8. You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last

     

    But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast

     

    Yonder stands your orphan with his gun

     

    Crying like a fire in the sun

     

    Look out the saints are comin’ through

     

    And it’s all over now, Baby Blue

     

     

    The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense

     

    Take what you have gathered from coincidence

     

    The empty-handed painter from your streets

     

    Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets

     

    This sky, too, is folding under you

     

    And it’s all over now, Baby Blue

     

     

    All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home

     

    All your reindeer armies, are all going home

     

    The lover who just walked out your door

     

    Has taken all his blankets from the floor

     

    The carpet, too, is moving under you

     

    And it’s all over now, Baby Blue

     

     

     

    HisBobnessCSC

     

     

    Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you

     

    Forget the dead you’ve left, they will not follow you

     

    The vagabond who’s rapping at your door

     

    Is standing in the clothes that you once wore

     

    Strike another match, go start anew

     

    And it’s all over now, Baby Blue

  9. Unlikely we will see any response from SFA glitterati until the middle of next week.

     

    They will all be in Jacksonville Fl this weekend for the junket friendly against the USA.

     

    Instead of flying back immediately to deal with the crisis, for that’s surely what it is, the office bearers will all be taking the short two and a half hour trip down to Disneyland.

     

    Mickey Mouse will personally ensure they get to ride the Tea Pots.

    I have seen him live a few times.

     

     

    He is also one of the few imho that can actually carry it off in a stadium but I saw him three years back there and decided it wasn´t worth it tonight. I would need to have paid for three tickets and at 90€ a pop. I decided against it.

    25/05/67 was the Feast of Corpus Christi and being pre Cardinal Winning days, it would have been a school holiday for children attending Catholic Schools. distinctly remember playing golf early that afternoon with a teacher at local Catholic School.

    Yup. Have had to deal with many a s–t in my day.

  29. Steviebhoy66 on

    Here’s something that has been knocking about in my head since the judgement on huns…. Could their argument be on the technicality of when they were punished with the years ban & fine… The committee never had any right to reduce the punishment? If they were punished for their action they can only be expelled & fined, thus the punishments were wrong

     

    Just a thought I have had for a while
