Soon the world will know, you were not paranoid after all

Tonight Sevco accepted all outstanding penalties attributable to the SFA membership of soon-to-be-liquidated Rangers.  They also agreed that if Rangers are found to have cheated for over a decade by illegally registering players that they will be subject to whatever penalties Rangers would be due, in order to acquire Rangers SFA membership.

Only a week ago Ally McCoist insisted he would not be party to such a deal, it remains to be seen if that they were empty words.

The Scottish Premier League will now continue with its inquiry into the alleged dual-contracts Rangers operated during the Sir David Murray era.  I confidently predict the findings will reveal Rangers did not operate within the same rules as every other club, since at least the last century.  The former club will be stripped of all league titles and cups.  Celtic will be awarded league titles for 2003, 2005, 2009, 2010 and 2011, creating a new Scottish record of 12 consecutive league championship wins.

Sevco will be liable for any punishment due for these years of operating with shadow contracts, the likely severity of which will reflect the enormity of the offence.

Should the First Tier Tribunal find that Rangers evaded paying up to £75m of social taxes, which is explicitly against Fifa and SFA rules, the SFA disciplinary tribunal will punish Sevco, the successor club now due to inherit Rangers SFA membership.

If you are on the receiving end of this, the future will appear daunting.  If you stood at Rugby Park, Fir Park, Celtic Park, St Mirren Park or Caledonian Stadium, when Celtic effectively or actually ‘lost’ league titles while observing the rules, the cumulative effects of punishments on a rival are meaningless, you will want trophies awarded to those who were prepared to endure defeat while observing the rules.

One day soon the world will know, you were not paranoid after all!

    Are you listening to the Sporting Integrity statements bhuns / SFA / SPL / MIB / MSM ?….you haven’t in the past …..will you in the future ?

  2. Mad Moisty will be hoist on his own petard…..i.e. he’s up the creek with the paddle batterin’ his demented wee frazzled syphilitic brain.

     

    I really don’t like the cretin. Can you tell?

  3. McCoist : sinister little man with carefully scripted innuendo and threats issuing from his mouth,carefully crafted to incite his ‘followers’ and intimidate his ‘antagonists’. His attitude of mealy mouthed self-pity. His vacant appeal to be cryptically construed thus : “Am I not Reason personified?”

     

    Typical violent fascist,who mistakenly thinks he will get away with it forever. A sleekit coward.

    Watching the Olympic opening ceremony. The Olympic flag has just been brought in by 8 berret and uniform wearing Afghani child killers. Nice touch.

    ” They want what we and our fans bring, yet seem determined to strip us of every bit of our dignity. It has to stop.”

     

     

    Dignity definition: bearing, conduct, or speech indicative of self-respect or appreciation of the formality or gravity of an occasion or situation.

     

     

    You never had any dignity in the first place. You would not recognise dignity if you bit into a dignity pie and got a mouthful of it, you would spit it out.

     

     

    If you want to be treated with dignity then act in a dignified manner and treat others with respect.

     

     

    If you want to be treated with dignity BE dignified, Stop bleating like a wean and grow up Alistair.

    I hope you a correct re the stripping of titles. I’ve got a $50 bet on with a Hun pal of mine and he thought I was crazy shaking his hand.

  7. RalphWaldoEllison fights ALS on

    Thanks Paul, a decent postcript to a shameful “temporary licence” day.

     

    Operating outside of their own rules becomes second nature to the SFA.

     

     

    As for Sevco, their “culture” was never going to disappear, but poor old Brechin.

     

    What did they do to deserve this?

     

     

    Well done to the 6 American ladies who’ve just swam the channel both directions in aid of ALS (amyotrophic llateral sclerosis).

     

    One question about their timing though – at the same time as the Olympic Opening ceremony in the country where the ceremony takes place!

    I thought we would go the noght without seeing Paul McCartney. How wrong was I?

     

     

    P.S. Paul67 Are we gonna get out of this league anytime soon. Sick of the bending over backwards to accomodate cheats and hate filled bigots.

    If what you say transpires, the SFA will have restored a measure of integrity to our game, and justice will have been meated out to the deceitful bhuns, … sally, hang your head in shame, also for your behaviour during and after the shame game …..

  10. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    That Olympic Torch disply was the best I have EVER seen, and the fireworks ….awesome, really…..

    I really don’t get the point of this bit. Still, suppose it could have been worse, could have been Cliff.

    Oor Paul’s getting old, but very good

  13. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    Wingnut says on the Beeb….”quintessentialy British”. Thought we’d heard the last of that phrase…!

    Regan is adding the restructure coda loud and loud and loud.

     

     

    2 season wilderness. They’ll be backfilled with cash from some muppet like Kennedy and we’ll be trysting again… and again… and again…

     

     

    SPL1 and SPL2 here we come – no matter the cost to the underground teams and junior teams etc.

     

     

    Not so much that the judgement cometh and that right soon, but the fallout…

     

     

    Sorry mate, but I don’t share your optimism

    Well said Paul. To me, geting the titles back is going to be the very bit of this sorry tale. It is the day that we can all celebrate justice being done. However, nothing will take away the agony of losing the titles, especially on the last day.

  17. Since taking over as manger of rangers Sally has failed at everything he has attempted to do. Both on and off the field. The areas where he thought he had success have led to greater problems. He is a liability.

  18. Paul 67,

     

     

    ‘Sevco will be liable for any punishment due for these years of operating with shadow contracts, the likely severity of which will reflect the enormity of the offence.’

     

     

    Eh, in which year will this happen? – 2023?

     

     

    The year after they’ve won the CL @DR Phone In:-)
