Just think if they hadn't messed with sandazahawk's noodle how many more goals the fermers would have had.
Did that chicanery cost the fermers a shot at the CL?
Sandazahawk! Excellent.
Sadly it's a couple of humpings from Motherwell and Dundee United and the SPL's fixture chappy that have made us outsiders for the CL spot. However, Susan Boyle hasn't warmed up the vocal chords yet.

I can see Roy crying into his hanky after seeing the error of his ways.
At a time when a fellow football club (The Rangers F.C.) teeters on possible liquidation, they are trying to buy one of our star players on the cheap which is morally reprehensible.
If bidding low is 'morally reprehensible', I wonder what bluechip, the Loyal Bluenose from Gourock, would call the actions of a club that made bids to sign another clubs star player, lets take a name at random and call him Francisco Sandaza, knowing full well they were about to go in administration, the last bid coming about 24 hours before they actually went into administration?

Sneak preview of the newco strip. Notice the distinct lack of stars above the badge.

So Brian Kennedy is "waiting in the wings" incase Rangers go into liquidation..........maybe he's planning on taking them down to England via Edgley Park ???
They'd feel right at home given the locals main song is a version of The Sash.
ever get the feeling we've all been had and that this has all been one big charade ? with the Administration being solely about public posturing and political maneuvering as the deals been done some months back to liquidate and reform under RFC 2012 ?
Spot on.

Rest assured once the season is over Rangers will be liquidated. Duff & Duffer are simply killing time, pretending to work behind the scenes until then. They know that if they went into liquidation now then the SPL would be forced to declare all Rangers results void and effectively throw them out of the league. But if it's done in the close season then not only can they claim prize money they can perhaps see a phoenix club take Rangers place in the SPL before the next season starts.
Perhaps?

Why can't you morons stick to the issues instead of spraying the place with your bigoted taint?
Ulster Dees in irony shocker.

Atlantic League is indeed a non starter but I'm sure it's more than co-incidence it suddenly rears it head again in a Glasgow paper just before a meeting of the non OF clubs to discuss how to take control of the SPL away from the bigot brothers.

The possibility of an Atlantic League involving Celtic, Rangers, other Scottish clubs and outfits from the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Portugal and Belgium is back on the agenda after positive indications from Uefa president Michel Platini, the governing body having previously been opposed to the idea. (Sunday Herald)
What a surprise. It's this week the 'Gang of 10' meet isn't it?

They'd need more players. Motherwell would, certainly.
Squad sizes and travel costs.Back in 2009 the smaller clubs (and some bigger ones e.g. Aberdeen) wanted to cut their squad sizes so they didn't have to support weekly games in SPL, SPL Reserves and SPL U19s. They voted to make the Reserve League optional. Then only a few clubs - 4 or 5 I think (inc. OF, Hearts, Hibs) - wanted to opt-in, so it had to be dropped entirely.
I see nothing wrong in using first team squad players and older youth players together in a second team. They're obviously already on the books so no additional cost there.
Clubs are playing bounce games most weeks anyway so I don't see any big additional travel cost either.
I really just think the only think holding back introducing public games for second teams is the will to do it.

There's no £££ to restablish the Reserve League.
What additional costs to a clubs current expenditure would be involved in restarting a reserve league HJ?

The impression I've got from these pages is that the Board can only ratify the full vote of the 11.
People on internet forum in talking shite to sound knowledgeable shocker.

... to 8-4 and 9-3 respectively.
No. No. No. Nothing in Scottish football should ever feature 9-3 ever again.

if this lot get away with this without liquidation or a heavy penalty over at least five season i will not be able to control my rage
Why over 5 years? That would mean nothing, especially if its a points deduction, other than hand you the title for 5 years running. Any penalty should be applied in one go no matter how severe. Not that you can call a wrap over the knuckles and a timid 'please don't do it again' severe.

If they introduce SPL 2 it means there will be division below the SPL Rangers 1690 can actually be put into.

Tally the votes & do the Maths.
Already have. I would guess only Thompson would likely vote against so its a landslide win for the bigots, surprise surprise.

"We wunt a 10 team league"
"We wunt a 14 team league"
"We wunt a 16 team league"
"We wunt a 20 team league"
"We'll meet again in a year, eh?"
"Aye ok"
"Therefore gentlemen, we are all agreed, WE run the SPL we way WE want from now on, not the way THEY want. Right, who's going to tell them."
"You tell them"
"No, you tell them"
"Not me. You tell them"
"I'm no tellin them. You tell em"
"I'm busy. You tell them"
"My dogs sick. You tell them"
"Come to think of it, I like things the way they are. Same again?"
"Sounds good to me. I'll tell them"
"No, I'll tell them"
"Hey, I want to tell them"
"No way. I'm telling them"
"I never wanted change anyway"

People have been saying that since the start, only for things to look worse and worse for them as even more is uncovered.
Even the combined talents of Gandalf, the Good Witch Of The North and f**king Aslan couldn't magic up a fairy tale happy ending for the Careless Bears this time.
Maybe, but sadly most of us know it's going to end up as The bigots are dead. Long live the bigots

SPL clubs used to only be allowed to ground share with other SPL clubs which is why Inverness had to use Aberdeen instead of McDiarmid, their first choice, as we were still in the First Division at the time.
If Rangers 1690 couldn't use Hampden, are there any other SPL clubs in Glasgow with a ground big enough for 45000 supporters they could share?

As soon as the 40 clubs finish beating Rangers to death we should instantly turn on Celtic.
If only everyone had the balls.....
Celtic could be left isolated with no OF partner to gang up with against the rest. The school bully left friendless when his little gang of chums finally see through him and join the rest of the class to alienate him.

12.50pm: Keith Wyness, former Chief Executive of Aberdeen has said he believes Rangers should be stripped of their honours if an inquiry shows that they've broken rules regarding payments to players. Wyness also believes that Scottish football could be stronger if Rangers do go out of business.
From the Scotsman
Some sense from an establishment suit at last.

See: http://www.pieandbov...ost__p__6034662
Celtic aren't going anywhere, and Rangers don't cream-off as much as we like to believe.
Note - whether it's a price-worth-paying is a different discussion.
This is obviously an area we shall just have to agree to disagree HJ., As for the price worth paying. We can't afford not to pay it.

"Blue Knights" (which is as fucking pathetic a name for a consortium as I've seen anywhere)
The Red Knights were going to buy out Man Utd from the Glazers. Once again it's just Scotland copying England.

I presume this has been argued to death elsewhere by more knowledgeable people than me, but I can't see why it's a given that the SPL needs Rangers. Granted, Celtic will lose out, but then they have the near-certain championship to compensate. The closest potential challengers (eg. Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen, Dundee Utd) will lose two big gates a season, but if they are competing for second place I could see them making that up over the rest of the home games. The others such as Motherwell*, Kilmarnock, St Johnstone, St Mirren might also benefit from bigger travelling supports from the first four named. Plus there would be 5 places up for grabs in the top six rather than 4.
As for TV money, overall cake smaller, but everyone gets a bigger slice no?
*very unfair on current placing I know!
I've been saying something along these lines too. The bigot brothers cream off so much of the income we get that the drop to most clubs won't lead to the long term doom and gloom scenario that is spouted by the short sighted. Scottish football will die with the OF, not without them.

Jolly good. I didn't look further than his post as I just took it his fellow brain stormers would have agreed with him as has been the case with any thread I've looked at on there.
Supporting The Rangers F.C. makes him a fucking moron anyway.
