The Scottish Football League programme is now finished with only play-offs still to complete but there is still a great deal of business to complete. The remarkable persistence of First Division clubs to find a financial model which will allow them to retain full time football shows no sign of ending, despite the difficulties presented from a couple of quarters.
Meanwhile the Third Division champions have even more pressing matters. They have now finished their league programme and can now officially be told what they have perhaps unofficially suspected for some weeks. Charles Green has agreed to remain a director until the end of this month. Before he goes the ownership of Ibrox, as well as the appropriateness of the club’s IPO in December, will need to be established. They have a three week window but nothing happens until the lawyers report, which I expect this week.
It was two years ago today Sir David Murray took a £1 payment and relieved himself of outstanding commitments to Lloyds Banking Group, the legacy of his time at Rangers. The support Craig Whyte received at critical times in the months which followed was breath-taking. Every hack, side-kick, and numpty ‘fan’ who told the rest to set aside all common sense deserve a medal for what they did to that club.
They don’t even understand the mock-worship Celtic fans offer Whyte is a parody on where they were 2011-12.

A sectarian murder after a football game but more coverage given to a heart attack in the same paper.
Look what that balloon Walker has been writing now. You’d think he would be able to get a little matter like the opposition right for an upcoming game! Does he actually get paid for this gig?

I am in complete agreement.
Howevva (to quote Kojo)
I questioned the validity of attending such masses and I was assured by the PP and a nun that this was a valid celebration of Mass.
I don’t know if this was a local dispensation due to the shortage of priests and I do not know if it was widespread throughout the country.
With the shortage of priests and the remoteness of some communities I believe it’s a far better alternative to having no celebration at all.
In countries with good infrastructure and communications then perhaps the transmission of mass via the internet would be a reasonable solution. However, this may run the risk of being extended to people at home and then we would lose the community aspect of celebrating mass.

Why is this a sectarian murder?????
Did I miss something?

Can’t argue with any of what you say, there is likely to always be a team called ragers, they will always have zombie fans who claim that it is the same club – I don’t believe that will ever change.
However, there is now a situation where assets are being contested, the authorities, importantly outside of Scotland are now involved in the investigation. They have been unable to contain this, unable to keep this in Scotland and their cosy wee Masonic cabal, it is now out of their control, out of control is good. Not a single person knows for certain how this will end up, what we can see is it is not going away and is going to be very very messy indeed – that my friend pleases me a great deal.
If we all could lower our expectations around them ceasing to exist entirely to a simple expectation that things will be very messy for them over the next few years – we won’t be disappointed.
Sit back and enjoy.

Off oot !!!!!
Is there any truth in the rumour which I am about to start, that the fixture computers for the SPL & SFL have been told to make sure St. Mirren and sevco are not playing at home on the same day for any dates next season?
At least we know HMRC are still wanting their money re EBT’s
“The decision was not unanimous and the diligence of HMRC investigators was acknowledged by the whole tribunal. HMRC is committed to tackling avoidance and it is right that HMRC challenges the type of avoidance seen in this case to prevent the loss of substantial amounts of tax and NICs.”
This was given as a MUST comment from a government department to an e-petition on behalf of greetin sevco fans.

6 May, 201The SPL and SFL have computers? I would love to see those disks.
bjmac. Masonic Skullduggery is not confined to Scotland and I believe if you or I were Directors of a company that had acted in the same manner as Rangers I have no doubt that we would have been tried and sentenced to many years in jail by now. I agree we should enjoy any small victory against them while being realistic about the bigger picture which will in my opinion will see them return to the SPL. H/H.

Their meeting is a classic case of looking for the stable door to try and out it back in place.
It’s damage limitation time.
Jabba will be doing well to put any positives on this one, I can tell you.
I would urge you all to watch this film.

there is obviously more to this story than is being reported
are you in a position to expand on the details
was there ever anything come out of the complaints to the advertising standards authority,
to be fair, fans of other clubs have been getting on the phone ins last few weeks and slughtering Flanders and co.
Why all this airtime/ miles of print on some ‘diddy’ POTY/ MOTY awards?
Does anyone honestly believe that getting a Scottish Award is worth tuppence on a player’s/ manager’s CV?
Now if you were to get the ‘Golden Boot’ or a ‘Ballon d’Orr’ or make the CL Team of that year’s competition – I could see the point.
Discrimination/ bias/ intolerance – the MSM feed on it to keep their petty insignificant jobs and lifestyles!
