Uefa-Res 12, Craig Thomson, take a look at yourself

1052

The document from Uefa to the Resolution 12 team, which emerged online over the weekend, is genuine. The headline part of this correspondence was always going to be Uefa confirming that whatever errors or omissions on the part of Old Rangers and the SFA’s Uefa vetting process, no further action was possible as New Rangers are a “new club/new company”.

Priceless, I know, but a delightful wee surprise, though it was, the status of Newco Rangers wasn’t the purpose of Resolution 12. Res 12 was about SFA process and accountability.

There was a great deal of correspondence with media figures since the letter was produced. It’s probably worthwhile noting the chronology of correspondence:

Uefa wrote to the Res 12 team on 6 June, copying the SFA and Celtic. After this date Grant Russell at STV asked Uefa for an update and received pretty much the same information that was sent to the Res 12 guys, without the supporting “new club/new company” line.

You may be of the view that after receiving the 6 June letter, the SFA could have asked Uefa not to offer such information in future (the layers of this story are endless). We’ll never know, but the horse had already bolted.

As correspondence on Res 12 continues, the team decided not to attempt private conversations with Uefa while making correspondence public, which is why this leak didn’t come from the Res 12 team. But I’m glad it’s out. It’s the definitive and irrefutable reference point on the status of Newco Rangers, and it’s on Uefa headed notepaper.

I don’t expect I’ll be goaded about Res 12 online as often going forward.

While we’re on the subject of the SFA: Craig Thomson, take a look at yourself. You know this is not good enough.  Your decision-making this season has been atrocious. James Forrest booking, for staying several yards away from the crowd after scoring a goal, was ludicrous, capping a multitude of errors this month.

If only people at the SFA were accountable. Which brings us back to the point above.

Getting nervous about tomorrow.  So much on the line……

    Surely someone of your intelligence cannot support that arguement.

     

     

     

    9/11, 7/7, Paris, Nice – these acts were overwhelmingly popular on almost every Islamic website in the world – does that make them right?

     

     

    Surely the debate has got to be more cerebral than that.

    Jimmynotpaul, I pray the next three weeks fly by and your scan results are good news for you. However, it will probably be the longest three weeks ever for you waiting for the findings from the scan.

     

     

    Bobby, happy birthday to your mum.

     

     

    My only input on the flag display from last week. Genoa supporters had a banner saying well done to Celtic fans . It was on the e tims or celtic underground twitter feeds.

    Thank you. It really does give you a lift but please remember so many are worse off than me, I seen them myself today at The Beatson. It truly makes you humble.

    “C”mon the majority”Ya spineless wretch.To sit at a keyboard and write that disgusting post on this site,nowhere near the guy you are abusing,says it all.Spineless,and looking for support.

     

    Lowlife,with pals on here who dont have the guts to call you out for it.

  7. I can’t remember the exact date but it was during Neil Lennon’s second season – the first few months when the team weren’t playing great and we were dropping points here and there. After one such draw we were about 12 points behind and I came on here. A poster had put a link up and I clicked on it – I remember Noel90 who used to post and his links were always great! – but it was of a train (subway?) door closing and the words ‘Mind The Gap’. Obviously posted by a Rangers fan on the wind up.

     

     

    I often think of him, and others like him, and I laugh my ****ing head off.

    There is a world of difference between being pro-Palestine or anti-Zionist and crossing the line into anti-semitism.

     

     

    I think this tweet that you claim is yours falls foul of crossing that line:-

  13. 24 hours before a massive CL qualifier and CQN is in turmoil with in-fighting and recrimination. Some of the comments tonight have been vitriolic and cringeworthy.

     

     

    We should be looking forward to and discussing the big game instead of trying to outdo each other for the most hateful insult.

     

     

    I’ve had enough.

     

     

    Will log back in tomorrow morning and hope for a return to some sense of civility.

     

     

    Goodnight.

    The was crossed weeks ago mate. When old TD67 first used the phrase and his pals started name calling sections of the support who disagree with them.

     

     

    Therefor I’ll ask that you direct your fire at the correct target.

  23. Dallas.

     

    Apologies. I missed you out. I caught up on your late post earlier today.

     

    It was a biopsy on my bone marrow today. They took loads of blood tests last Tuesday. All results will be back in 3 weeks.

     

    An Tearmann.

     

    Someone posted on Sat that he’s going to Dundee Utd on loan. I spoke to family on Friday, he is happy to go on loan to get game time but my understanding is, he has still to catch up on pre season training as he missed the majority of it. What is certain is that this is his year,he needs game time and to stay fit for most of the season.

  24. Whoever Brendan picks tomorrow night I will trust to get us through to the promised land.

     

     

    Whatever Brendans tactics tomorrow night I will trust him too.

     

     

    Am I getting soft or is it just old age.

     

     

    I’ll be 28 next week.

    Did anyone answer the question earlier? Who leaked the letter from UEFA and Why?

     

     

    UEFA have their work cut out getting ahead of the PR of supposed kids and leftie idealists in the Green Brigade.

     

     

    You fine the club you just create more bad PR and become part of the raising of awareness. You close part of the stadium and you can triple that and re open the donations to charities.

     

     

    You can sense the quaking in boots of the Rangers. Tomorrow is a big big day. Think I’ll put 20 notes on a Beer Sheva 3 nil or 4-1 just to help me try and get over it if we lose it.

  29. I thought we would struggle to get into the Europa league this season as I expected Brendan to have a major overhaul of the squad. Delighted to have European football till Christmas and if we do qualify for the Champions League I can see some very special nights ahead….

     

     

    Trying to drag the blog back to football less than 24 hours before possibly the most important game of the season…
