Templar of Doom

1242

I took a nasty Pavlovian reaction today when I heard the radio announce “Derby day” before realising the presenter was talking about the actual Derby.  The last thing anyone planning a night out in Glasgow is the ‘Glasgow derby’, as it was known in its final few years.

As anyone walking the streets of Glasgow and beyond in peace tonight will testify, we don’t want it or miss it.  I prefer my football, like my streets, without this nonsense.

Knights Templar sequestrated?  Blame those “enemies”.  George Peat, Campbell Ogilvie and Lex Gold forced through his appointment as SFA chief executive, despite him not meeting selection criteria.  As every wise footballer knows, know your level.

The magnificent framed Lionel Messi top we are auctioning for 1254125 has less than two days to run, keep an eye on it here.

Copies of Willie Wallace’ autobiography, Heart of a Lion, have been flying off the shelf.  The mail order fulfilment centre will have stock replenished on Monday after running out.  Order your copy below – still time for Father’s Day.

    Depends,they take it down to Barry Island now and again for the tourists.

  17. Just read the ASA statement.

     

     

    Two things.

     

     

    1. As already said this gives HMRC more than enough ammo to pursue unpaid tax from the same club.

     

     

    2. The ECA are not the authority on football governance.UEFA are and why their view was not sought is puzzling. However questions have gone to UEFA asking if The Rangers will be able to play in Europe if they win the SC ( or lose to title winners) in the next two years.

     

     

    According to UEFA rules they have not been members of a national association long enough to get the required UEFA licence which kind of kills the notion it is the same club.

     

     

    The ASA are producing a conclusion that protects their industry as LNS did to protect the SFA using SFA testimony.

     

     

    This insistence on being the same club when all they have done is use the system to continue tax avoiding will bite both football and The Rangers on the bum if HMRC question the misuse of insolvency law and UEFA, with a wider responsibility to protect their authority, set out why The Rangers like Derry City were unable to participate in Europe for 3 years which is because they have insufficient history as a football club ( as UEFA define one – no club/ company crap) who have had a membership of a national association to comply with UEFA licensing conditions.

     

     

    If this stands UEFA FFP Article 12 falls, indeed the articles relating to unpaid tax are undermined if insolvency simply becomes an attractive vehicle for tax avoidance so UEFA cannot afford to stay silent. In fact they might be getting pissed off with how their governing principles are being ignored by the SFA.

     

     

    It will however require the issue to go political with tax payers asking their MPs if what is happening at The Rangers has UK government support and that requires making tax payers aware they are being robbed by inadequate insolvency laws.

     

     

    This aint over until its over.

    That was our ultimate destination way back then. … butlins

     

    Got the train to cardiff on the Friday. . Stayed the night then off to barry island in the morning

  19. Who have had a membership of a national association LONG ENOUGH ( 3 years) to comply.

     

     

    Hope that is clearer.

  20. ‘In it to win it’ factually inaccurate.

     

    They were not RELEGATED.

     

    Must complain to BBC.

  21. The Boy Jinky on

    Auldheid

     

     

    Does it have to be full membership or does sevco associate membership count
