Channel 4’s Alex Thomson’s source at the SPL yesterday confirmed that the league will not proceed with their hearing into Rangers illegal registration of players until Sevco agrees to be bound by its findings. This is curious as Item 12 (Sanctions) from the SFA’s ‘List of items required to accompany application for transfer of full membership’ from Rangers to Sevco, an application which Sevco have already made, obliged Sevco to agreed to be bound by these findings.
The relevant part of the transfer application reads:
“Confirmation that Sevco will accept such sanctions as are proposed by the Scottish FA in relation to current proceedings.
Confirmation re EBT sanction position at SPL level and subsequent appeal to Scottish FA.
Confirmation that Sevco will accept responsibility for any breach of the Articles etc by Oldco which has not so far come to light.”
If Sevco have not accepted the terms of the SFA membership application there seems little point putting Scottish Football League clubs through such dramas this week. An alternative explanation is that Sevco have completed their application in full but the SPL have no plausible excuse for delaying tier investigation into illegal registration of players, so have used an implausible excuse.
Neither explanation is tenable. Things are not going to plan for the national bodies.

Allegedly ole Voguepunter once took six Tims balanced on the back of his Raleigh Chopper to a Celtic semi final at Hampden.
Celtic got beat and he made them all walk home.

Your story does not ring true,where could you safely leave your
chopper in Weegie land?

Hope Albion are well insured if elbows is playing. I see Sion are in trouble again for playing Laghatime without international clearance. HaHaHaHa.

“As part of the feature this week we also step back in time and take a look back at the teams Celtic have played in the league that are now defunct.”

I’ve asked this before. I don’t think THEMS will be playing in any league this season, if so, which league will THEMS be “shoehorned” into season 13/14 ?
Weefra HH
The only place SS f.c. will be playing is on a games console.
:-)
aye the only downside of them not playing in season 12-13 is that we’ll have a full year of MSM stories about which division should they be in season 13-14.

Good Charlatans reference.
Not enough of that on here. Is that the only one you know?
I bring Nuclear news. Unfortunately only pertaining to myself but good news for fans of omens and other superstitious bobbins.
Admin day – Was in Amsterdam – no CQN access
No CVA day – away on work in darkest Ayrshire – no CQN access
And on Thursday I will be in rural France with nae wi-fi hence no CQN access.
So based on this dodgy premise, more bad news for the ex FC due.
I see the Celtic View will publish articles celebrating milestones in our 125 year history.
I don’t think they’ll have an article on the worst 10 fullbacks that ever wore the HOOPS.
I bet all you guys slagged Charlie Mulgrew before he became the great player and Celtic Idol he now is.
Shame on you!
All this ‘Worst Player to wear the hoops’ does my mapper in.
Only 2 players to my mind did not deserve to wear the hoops:-
Mo Johnstone and Craig Burley.
The rest were given the opportunity by managers of Celtic, gave 100% effort in the main as far as I am concerned, and deserve our support rather than being made fun of or slighted by us. Ok. Some may not have lived up to the expectations we put on them or our hopes but they gave it a go.

Shurely Viduka’s comments about 70% deserve a mention
Thanks to Ferrytim and Che (and anyone else who I missed)
for posting info on forthcoming holiday destination.
Would have replied earlier but have been laid low with some bug since early last night…..not very pleasant
is the game on tv tonight bhoys?
rodow1
You could say the same for Boruc. But both were great players for us never the less. Maybe could have been better. But I’m happy with what they have us.
Although I would be inclined to add Viduka to my personal list for refusing to turn out for the hoops in 2nd half of ITC game but for the circumstances of the club at the time.
MWD
now that sevco own steptoe’s yard, moses park and the car park, D&P must have completed the accounts for last year and these have been signed off by the auditor and passed to the relevant authorities…whaddayamean ‘no’!?
course they have!
there can’t be anything iffy about them!
insolvent? I dont’t get it!
follow the money!
MWD- I know Craig Burley has lost the plot lately but when he was playing I thought he gave 100%, especially in the TIAR[denied] season.
No idea why they are going ahead with the panto meeting on Friday 13th.
It is blatantly obvious that SS fc will tell everyone what division they will play in and what sanctions they will accept. Otherwise they will simply buy Cowdenbeath and rebrand them – no sanctions / no votes / no baggage / no problems with accounts / new players.
The only ones that will moan will be the Blue Brazil fans….but they will get the right to host the U20s maybe if they have enough
I would say refusing to play, is far worse than playing and being hopeless……er if you catch my drift.IMO Viduka should have been chased after spitting on a Dunfermline player.
Ratners, or Sevco 5088 or, I can’t believe their not Rangers catering and event staff have all been told to prepare for a season without football.

I was waiting on a few more pages of posts so I could crack the Between 10th and 11th pun. Perhaps the huns final resting place in Division 3?
“How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?”(Sherlock Holmes)
It has crossed my mind that the only remaining explanation for Doncaster & Regan’s mysterious decision making is that they have been seriously undermined by ‘the forces of darkness’.
In what way I have no idea,but something weird is definitely going on. How else is all this is explained? Subversion of rules,blatant preferential treatment of one club,lies,obfuscation,threats,contempt for everyone except the favoured ones. This is deviant behaviour,especially as we are being told they have impartiality as their touchstone. Really?
Funny handshakes don’t begin to cover the scale of their mendacity.
Ogilvie we know about,but Regan & Doncaster? What,exactly,is going on here? They need to come clean. It would do them good. And if it takes a court case to force their hands,then so be it.
Burley is a funny one because a bigger numbty does not exist in the MSM/press right now, and that is saying something, but he did always give me the impression he tried his heart out on the park. Very professional when you now realise his dislike for Celtic..
Funny indeed.
Steinreignedsupreme on 10 July, 2012 at 12:07
Couldn’t spot any other references but sometimes a man needs to be told.
All aboard for the Craig Burley love-in ;/)
Another Celtic??
It seems that Gilford park from the Northern League in england have renamed themselves Celtic Nation FC. (!)
They are playing pre-season games against Annan, QoS and carlisle Utd – so they must ne a reasonably serious outfit. I will certainly be looking out for their scores with a name like that.

———————————————————————-
were catering & event functions not outsourced? how could they be sold on?
my guess, selective leaks prepare the ground for the ultimate bad news – if that is- you have previously had any financial or emotional investment in the club previously playing at the spare ground.
18 weeks since 2nd contract investigation at ra gers started
doncaster has had his failed plan to get sevco into the SPL
so what can the hold up be in delivering the judgement ?
also regan has the transfer ban and the punishment for talking the SFA to court
so what can the hold up be in delivering the judgement ?

I agree, they have tied themselves to the mast of a sinking ship, but refuse to cut themselves free. Why?
DBBIA
I agree re. Burley giving 100% as did le Merde.
But I hate the fact that both were awarded the chance to wear the hoops. They are a stain.
MWD
I’m all for the Craig Burley love-in – except for my utter contempt for the man which keeps getting in the way. But I will keep trying to be a better person. Although on this one I don’t see much optimism for success…
U
never did like seeing a player try to get himself sent off as he was clearly suffering the consequences of a previous evening on the ‘big mooth’ soup!
Paulo di canio is on the list for me as players who don’t deserve to wear the hoops after his fascist nazi salute a few years back when he played for lazio he has a mussaleni tattoo also

Craig Burley detestable twisted, bigoted individual, who played one good season on the crest of a Wim Jansen’s perm.
BDO seem like a highly competent and efficient organisation. They have managed to get a 50p in the £1 deal for the Farepak creditors.

Wonder how their next next high profile job will go…….

Hey, go easy on him. Where he lives is a bit isolated and it takes time for quality culture to reach him up there. He’s doing not bad for a north country boy so far.
Hi bhoys and ghirls, dont often post but one thing that is now beyond doubt is no matter how this all ends up Doncaster and Regan have to go , embarassingly unfit to hold key positions in scottish football
