No titles stripped

That's the good news & rightly so..

.. But what's this £250k fine all about ? Report not released but this would suggest there has fern a verdict of wrongdoing on our part.

Given the FTTT exonerated us in all but a few specific cases its hard to see how this tribunal could conclude anything different ! The specific cases were given in audited accounts and highlighted as part of players contracts.

So while this ruling doesn't affect us financially as its a liability if Oldco, it still gives certain factions a stick tae beat us wi and cry foul.

Not that I'm particularly bothered but seems this ruling is a wee bit gerrymandered to satisfy all agendas

54 and counting

the way i see it is

Rangers (old company) have been found Guilty but Rangers have gotten away with it

Ghod - nah, the spl teams are all above admin errors. Bastions of sporting integrity that they are


No other club in Scotland would dream of such shenanigans.

Ghod - dc1 posted a report on another thread from the hearing. It states as there was no unfair competitive advantage to rangers , it's not a sporting issue /sanction.

The players were all registered correctly. It was just payments that weren't.

I think I need someone to sit me down and explain all this slowly to me

Ghod -


(6) Rangers FC did not gain any unfair competitive advantage from the contraventions of
the SPL Rules in failing to make proper disclosure of the side-letter arrangements, nor
did the non-disclosure have the effect that any of the registered players were ineligible
to play, and for this and other reasons no sporting sanction or penalty should be
imposed upon Rangers FC





Seems fair enough to me. Why would titles be stripped when no competitive edge was gained?

Ibrox

the bottom line here is Rangers have been punnished to be honest I think its going to take Rangers years to get back to what they were and even then thats not a given,

The findings today is the best for our game some may not agree but fluck me I think everyone is fed up of hearing about Rangers ....fluck from what I have been hearing is parents have come up with a new way to get there kids to sleep at night .....Just start talking about Rangers and bang there out for the count

The moral of that story is Rangers and Boring go together

Jungle agree with first part of your post . Not so sure about the ending, I would say watching rangers as a whole the last few years has been anything but boring

Ffs how can the club have gotten away with it when it is having to ply its trade in Div 3 with a 12 month transfer embargo ? Is that your opinion of having gotten away with it ? <deary me>
