The side letters were dealt with by LNS. The details of EBTs haven't been changed by any court after the FTT. There is no reason to revisit that ruling.

OK Jim, now we can now move onto the crux of the matter in question. The LNS at the time dealt with Rangers FC as if the EBT scheme was being properly implemented and was being legally used.

This outcome has now made the LNS commission void by proving in a court of law that Rangers FC were in fact abusing the EBT scheme left, right & centre by paying players wages through an offshore method hiding it from the SFA and SPL in order to pay them more in wages. It really is that simple.

The outcome has now proved Rangers FC to have improperly registered their players for over a decade by having dual contracts, one of which was hidden from the SFA which is against association rules.

For a minute there I thought this was meant to be a song and was about to call you a terrible lyricist.

What? With this final ruling by the Supreme Court the question arises
Should Rangers face further punishment from the football authorities?
I am arguing no because this ruling has no material change in fact that were considered under the previous investigation by the SFA, the Lord Nimmo Smith Report. If there had been a change in circumstance like ruling the EBTs a tax evasion scheme then it would have been right to re-open possible sanctions by the SFA.
 
 


Absurd.

There has always been the ambiguity of where the BTC would or would not come down on HMRC or Rangers favour.

This coloured everything and as I said before the enormously narrow parameters set by the SFA for LNS meant that this judgement would never be fair, transparent or sufficient.

As we discovered later.

As it happens, I have no interest in any re-opening of procedures against Rangers, they're gone mate. Who would be in 'court' as defendant's? I know that's not the right term.

All that is required is for the SFA to take all the information and void any titles won by Rangers while the DOS and EBTs operated. That's it and it's what they should have done in the first place. No judges, no QCs just "did they register these players and their wages properly?"

No? Then all these shiny baubles, pots and pans go into the sea.

Both the sentiment and grammar of the average moon-howler.  Today's outcome changes nothing.

:lol: When all else fails you, head straight for the grammar and shpelling errurs ffs. :lol:

Today's outcome changes everything you dopey c**t. Legally your club have been officially labelled fucking cheats mate. :)

The SFA will now be under pressure to do the right thing and resit the SPL commission with the new evidence from the SUPREME COURT that you and yer two clubs are rancid smelly drunken cheats, smell the glove pal, it's coming. Might not get the title stripping but we sure as hell won't let the likes of you fucking forget it ya smelly cheating c**t. :P

And if you had bothered to read the Supreme Court ruling you would see that the fact EBTs are legal hasn't changed. All HMRC has done is convince the court that the establishment of an Employee Benefit Trust does not provide the employee with tax relief and should have had PAYE applied as normal income.

There was no abuse of EBTs. It is stated at least twice in the judgement that EBTs were not a sham.

So with those facts unchanged there is no reason to re-open the issues decided by LNS.
