Off the ball should be on as a guy who phoned in to complain yesterday is meant to be picking the tune at the end. Maybe mw only as im getting the rambling poet as well.

It wouldnt, they can trade and employ whoever they like. They just can't register them to play. It's a condition of participation in the competition.

He lost me with his opening gambit of "Let Rangers back in the SPL".

Scotsman

Scotsman newspaper/online. Think it only pertains to european licence though and appears to be a previous statement.

72nd minute of all games this weekend people should turn away and face the back of the stand.

The whole point and brilliance of Thomson's reporting is that he is an outsider to scottish football and therefore largely objective.

Just heard Craigan's comments on talksport about how the old firm should be "treated differently" and as much as a well fan as I am, I find them disgusting and very disheartening. If that's what our club captain is saying then what's the point.

The long ans short of it is, if it wasn't Rangers, there wouldn't even be a discussion. That has been the situation since day 1 and continues to be.

Then when asked whats to stop other teams liquidating and joining the league, he answers "ah, but that would be a newco".

Unless said support is from UEFA (or the FA, who have categorically stated oppostion to it) then it is utterly pointless.

I would assume to make money, or try to. Alot of Rangers related names have been bought over they last year or so. It was like a number of years back when people were buying www. domain names for the olympics and world cups etc.

Sorted

Im out and steaming, so will measure my comments. Was out with a leicester fan though who was 1) more interested in my motherwell tales. 2) found the prospect of them being promoted first crack from the championship absolutely hilarious.

Unfortunately there are FIFA regulations around pulling players out of international squads.

Its to do with misconduct charges which whyte, and therefore rangers, failed to answer. It was to do with not acting with good faith towards the league, other teams etc. I think the contract issue is still being looked at.

I concur.

Was Bains bonus a loan? What were the t/s of loans? I dont think Rangers would be silly enough to issue loans with no documented arrangement for settlement... Unless they weren't really loans at all.

After the hilarity Its actually hugely depressing that someone can come up and expose the sheer incompetence of the media here. If only journalists here weren't Shitebags.

"Sold down the river by the state of journalism in Glasgow"

"Matters of corporate governance are best covered by people who know what they are talking about" : Any chance of sticking to that Keevins?

"Why did you not get a business correspondent to look into it?" "A google search takes 2 mins" "Whyte was clearly not a billionaire" "The journalism up here is sycophantic towards the old firm"

Is it not the case that scottish football as a whole, inc national team, could be sanctioned due to this alleged political interference?

Imo the Celtic talk is all posturing and they'll vote rangers in. With sanctions, of course.

Sorry if I'm missing something, or if its been mentioned before but how can Rangers get entry to the SPL as a newco when the rules state: The association football clubs eligible to participate in the League in any Season shall, subject to the Articles of Association and Rules, be those Clubs which participated in the League in the immediately preceding Season, except that, subject to Rules A2.2, A2.3 and A2.4, the Club finishing in last place in the League in the immediately preceding Season shall not be eligible to participate in the League and shall be relegated to the SFL and the Candidate Club shall be promoted from the SFL and admitted entry to the League. 1) A newco club wouldn't have participated in previous season 2) Surely it is then in the SFL's court to put Rangers forward as "the candidate club". 3) Otherwise allowing entry to a newco would require a new constitution??
