G51 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Jones won't play again for us anyway. He's taken the pish one too many times. No idea about Edmundson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the punishments handed out to Celtic and Aberdeen players at the start of the season, this seems rather harsh. You would have to think that what Bolingoli and the Aberdeen eight did was worse than the two Rangers players being at a party. However since it’s Rangers I’m fine with this. A Rangers statement incoming? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pair of them should be hunted at the first opportunity, just no excusing their behaviour. Seeing people comparing their bans to Bolingoli's (sp) And the sheep players. I'm guessing that the leniency shown previously hadn't worked, hence the longer bans to these two morons.

AJF Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I don't have too many complaints despite the difference in punishment compared to earlier breaches. As mentioned, it's likely due to them imposing harsher punishments to hammer the message that this type of thing isn't and has never been acceptable. I'd be surprised if Rangers voice any complaints. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen this appearing on social media sites, a momentum is rapidly growing to get Sevco banned and docked points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very difficult to punish a club who haven't broken any rules. Although as we saw with what the corrupt SPFL did to the Heart of the Midlothian, that probably won't stop them!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Rangers are currently in a good position to be able to sell both at the first opportunity if a reasonable bid comes in for either. It’s fairly evident Jones doesn’t feature too heavily in Gerrards plans, with Aribo and Hagi well ahead in the pecking order. Similarly, Goldson, Helander and Balogun are the regular centre backs, with ample cover in Katic when he recovers from injury and Calvin Bassey who could also provide cover in the centre of defence as well as left back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prediction: Jones and Edmundson are sold in January. Katic is back by the end of January so no need to replace Edmundson, and Kai Kennedy signs a new contract, finishes his loan and takes Jones's place in the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gannonball Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 At the end of the day if the clubs can prove they have provided protection and testing then its the players who should get hammered really. If theres that many who have been proven to breach the rules that causes a postponement then we can talk points being awarded to the other team but hopefully it never comes to that this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've already said that no action can be taken against the club thanks to our prompt and responsible actions. The moonhowlers will nonetheless howl about it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Brees Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 No they weren'tWhatever the scot govt called it both Aberdeen and Celtic were prevented from playing for 2 games each because of player breaches, just hope one or both of them call out the govt for using them as political tools to cover up their f**k up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having games postponed isn't a punishment. Having games forfeited is. Did I agree with Ms Sturgeon's decision to postpone the Aberdeen and Celtic games? No, I did not. Did I see why it was a vital thing to do to ensure the health and safety of all footballer players in Scotland? Again, no. Did I think it's very funny that this happened while Rangers were later correctly praised for their swift and brutal responses to Jones and Edmundson? Yes. 100%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdcal Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Aberdeen and celtic were given the warning shots. The players in this, having seen what was handed out did as they pleased anyway.Giving the players a ban that's harsher than previous is showing its not to be taken lightly.Hell mend the ones that breach next as I get the feeling a longer ban or forfeiture will not be far off 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
