Highland Dogma Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 That pile of nonsense from regan should be followef up with his resignation...honestly can't say who is worse between him and doncaster! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymores Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Our good friends over on SevcoMedia seem to think Donald is backing them with that statement http://forum.rangers...howtopic=230253 Well it clearly does to the extent that it suggests Sevco should be admitted to the Third Div. The statements of most Clubs say they should apply for entry in the established manner and be considered solely on the merits of the application as compared to any others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beermonkey Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Not sure general social issues are in regan's remit. So he's concerned that 50,000 people won't have anything to do every other Saturday. I dunno, cut the grass, a spot of decorating...maybe a bit of volunteering? WTF has that got to do with his decision? Fuckwit! Maybe they could spend their giro's on something else.....soap maybe ?......New clothes other than rangers tops & tracksuits?......looking after their children perhaps ? Just a few ideas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunfellaff Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 General question............Cawk + Swallow cast the vote for newcorpse/oldcorpse today. When does that stop? When Liquidated or when share transferred? Only asking after Cosgroves Valhalla idea, ie if the SFL don't put forward a candidate, there is no vacancy. Would the SPL absorb back the share at this point if it was an 11 team League? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinheed Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Rangers newco: 'Big problem for Scottish society' if Rangers plunge to Third Division Regan: 'There would be a slow lingering death for football in Scotland' (SNS) Regan: 'There would be a slow lingering death for football in Scotland' (SNS) By STEPHEN HALLIDAY Published on Wednesday 4 July 2012 21:26 SCOTTISH Football Association chief executive Stewart Regan has issued a startling warning of "social unrest" in Scotland if newco Rangers are denied entry to the First Division of the Scottish Football League following the emphatic rejection today of their application to retain top-flight football at Ibrox. Regan's remarkable comment came as he insisted admission to the First Division is now the only viable option if Scottish football wishes to avoid what he described as a "slow, lingering death". Regan bluntly asserted that Scottish football simply cannot afford to have Rangers outwith the top two tiers of the league structure, with his argument not confined to the commercial impact their absence would have. "Without Rangers, there is social unrest and a big problem for Scottish society," claimed Regan. "They have a huge fan base and to contemplate the situation where those fans don't have a team to support, where those fans are effectively left without a game to follow, I just think that could lead to all sorts of issues, all sorts of problems for the game. "Tribalism in football is really important. It is part of the game. People follow their clubs with pride, it is passed down from generation to generation. There are thousands of Rangers fans whose fathers and parents and grandfathers have been Rangers fans. You can't contemplate a situation without that and if Rangers weren't to exist that could have real dire consequences. What are they going to do, invade manchester? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kong Bundy Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Couldn't give a f**k if we lose these 'fans' to the game. Time and again they show themselves to be the most stupid and bigoted in society. Why are we so worried about keeping their Big House open? FLUSH plz. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Continental Drifter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 This morning it was announced that scientists have finally discovered the Higgs Boson particle. The particle that gives Mass to all. Then, just after lunchtime, Rangers disappear. Coincidence? I think not!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Presumably all those 'thousands of Rangers-supporting grandfathers' were all born after 1985, when they struggled to get 4,000 at Ibrox for some of their games. Though given the level of social degeneracy that marks an Old Firm fan, that wouldn't be too surprising. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Ah, Regan... the guy who prior to joining the SFA as chief exec had only dealt with Scottish football when trying to jump into bed with the OF for major sponsorship deals. Little's changed it would seem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
