Crossbill Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Is the SFAs defence really going to be 'Scottish football has suffered enough and we need to forget about the past and move on' ? Seems to me like I've heard that line before 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm sure this will be ignored and the Rangers fans on here will still claim the SFA are against them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Can't say I am happy about a shareholder of any club taking the SFA to court over a decision that is clearly up to them. But that being said at least we may get to find the reasons why a criminal who was a director of a club that skipped out on 10's of millions and cheated the game for over a decade, is fit and proper to serve in such a capacity again. Perhaps the SFA can release its reasoning prior to the hearing in April that way we can all make our own decisions. Transparency and that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Of course, isolated incident, nothing like this has ever happened before... An inclusive club, open to all they say. It appears dougal has been banned Oh dear, how sad, never mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortar Bored Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 For me it's a tough one, I'm with WMM on this, it's an uneasy feeling when a sporting authority is called into question by a billionaire shareholder. That said, the footballing authorities in Scotland are a complete disgrace and full of self-serving areseholes, and deserve to be called to account. I think the SFA / SPFL members( club representatives) should have cried foul on this at the time and asked for justification on that decision- it's pretty apparent to me that King is neither fit or proper. The idea that a sporting body is dragged through the legal system is just wrong, however, all this could have been avoided if, said body, wasn't so corrupt in the first place and had given King the middle digit originally. His application to be passed fit & proper should have been laughed at and thrown in the bin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mythstoliveby Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Have to say I am utterly amazed at the levels of support for Ashley on here. The man deliberately broke rules on dual ownership He then engineered a loan deal between the two clubs he had dual interest in. He was found guilty He now wants to take the SFA to court in an attempt to increase his dual ownership further. All of this is being done at the expense of Scottish Football and will have to be paid by the clubs that posters on here support. The general consensus seems to be....'aye but he is willing to f**k over Rangers at the same time, good on him!! ' .....and his cheque book just happened to keep your club afloat last year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most non OF fans feel that their clubs have been fucked over throughout the years by the footballing authorities for favouring Celtic and Rangers on a whole host of issues. Most non OF fans also believe that the club's themselves don't really give a shit about the rest of Scottish football. And most fans, including Celtic ones, feel that Rangers in its various guises have been dishonest over the EBTs and have shown absolutely no contrition. Given all of that does the attitude of 'good on him' really surprise you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

' Ashley deliberately broke rules - like Rangers and EBTs You're complaining about the loan deal he engineered - that will be Rangers' best player last season then. He wants to take the SFA to court - The SFA are a bawhair better than FIFA. I fucking hate the SFA and it's about time someone made a c**t of them. The clubs will inevitably pick up the tab - It's not like the SFA were about to spend it on anything meaningful and worthwhile. How Doncaster and Regan are still employed is a miracle. I figure every penny they take out of Scottish Football is a bigger waste of cash than the SFAs legal team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

' The point is, most right thinking football fans are aghast at the leeway given to ensure the " only attractive proposition" in Scottish football is so blatantly given preferential treatment in order that they have "old firm" games to sell to the TV companies and sponsors. When that happens- the game is fucked for the rest of us. In an ideal world, both of you would f**k off to the English lower leagues and leave the rest of us to it. The fact that the authorities are standing by The Rangers, who, in their previous incarnation made no secret of their desire to leave Scottish football actually sickens me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 It is and he is the lesser of two evils Tedi. Would much rather we weren't in this position, but your club is being run by a criminal and despite my distaste at the process I think it is good we'll find out why the SFA think that's ok 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mythstoliveby Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Well done for missing the point entirely, what this shows is that you, like Wullie are perfectly ok with a guy breaking SFA rules, costing your club money as long as it negatively affects Rangers too. Scotland...the land that hated itself to death. No not at all. Ashely is an ar$e. But he is an ar$e whose cheque book kept your club from going bust - would YOU accept that (and be grateful??) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are missing the point, your new club which, like the last one loves to overspend, were kept afloat by this man, he should be the messiah to you- but then he's no a real ranjurs man..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossbill Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Personally I'm not really that bothered about Ashley's spat with King - Rangers seem eminently capable of screwing up on their own without an angry billionaire trying to f**k them. However, the Scottish football authorities have been immune to any sort of scrutiny for far too long. If he drags their corruption and incompetence into the light for everyone to witness and allows us to purge the game of these arseholes, all of Scotland (even Rangers fans) should give him thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is supporting anyone who will stand up to the apparent corruption within the SFA and their collusion with a convicted tax fraud who was a member of the board of directors at a club who went into administration and have since been liquidated. Who knows we might even get some more dastardly deeds uncovered. Don't care who calls the apparent corruption to task, so long as it's investigated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
