Desert Nomad Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Chris McLaughlin @BBCchrismclaugMM: This is still #Rangers and the next chapter of our history has the potential to be one of the greatest stories in the history of sport. Lance Armstrong also made a comeback in one of the greatest stories in the history of sport, he too is about to be found out as a fraud.

Dundee Hibernian Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 So why was it that Dungcaster and Regan were quoted? I'm only having a guess. That's why I wrote 'I guess'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 What's your solution? Force them to have a maximum wage? They are within their rights to waste as much money as they want. Can't speak for IO but maybe the point he's making is that a club that is a reinvention of another club that went tits up owing millions can play in SFL3 and still pay wages that most SPL clubs would struggle with. On a related note when have they got to pay off the footballing debt by? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raidernation Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) YOu cheats and liars can never, ever put this behind you. You're tainted and you know you are! Can you hear the sevco5088 sing?

Dundee Hibernian Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 They couldn't start the season without a team ... that would be totally unfair and he has to make do with that team right through until the 2 window for 2013/14. I think the ban was applied fairly enough sorry ... Haven't Sevco presently got around 40 full time players on their books? Apologies if I'm well off the mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 This is still #Rangers and the next chapter of our history has the potential to be one of the greatest stories in the history of sport. Classic stuff. One of the greatest stories in the history of sport. That Gretna did a few years back already Hope the ending to this particular high-budget fairytale is the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 So these p***ks get to sign Players on £7000 a week. While SPL clubs are struggling to sign players! Unbelievable' We are not signing anyone on that sort of money We're reducing our wagebill P.S we've signed over the media rights to keep the SIL (spl) clubs afloat, so be happy with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymores Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Incredible - McCoist continuing to spout libelous pish - FFS compliance officer get a grip of the fat balloon :angry: :angry: ALLY McCOIST has spoken passionately about the incredible saga over Rangers becoming members of the SFA.The manager is almost at the end of his tether after slamming the handling of the whole situation and criticising the leadership of Scottish football. He said: He said: "48 hours from now, we are supposed to start the season with a game at Brechin and, as I sit here today, I don't know exactly what our status in the game is, where our players, that we have, should be registered - and what the future holds for us going into next week. "It's a ludicrous situation - and I owe it to our fans - to make my views known on it. "No one is denying that Rangers were badly mismanaged for 10 months. Nor are we disputing that we should be punished for that. We have been. We accept that punishment and want to start putting the past behind us and move forward. "But that is not being allowed to happen - and I have to ask myself why? "In recent days, I have been in a number of meetings with Stewart Regan, Rod Petrie and other senior SFA figures - and despair at the lack of leadership shown. "In my years in professional football, I have not always agreed with everything the SFA did or said. But, no matter what you thought of their decisions, there was no doubt they ran the game firmly and robustly. "I can only imagine Ernie Walker looking down on us now and shaking his head in disbelief at the sad state of affairs and the way they have been mishandled. "As for the SPL, they seem determined to pursue as hostile an agenda as possible towards Rangers. "They kicked us out of the SPL - which was their right- and we acknowledge that - but that doesn't seem enough for Neil Doncaster and some of his board. "Not only as they withholding our SPL prize money for last season - they won't tell us how much it is but we reckon it to be about £1.3million. "And having said they don't want us - they do want a bigger share of the TV money that our presence will bring to the SFL and its clubs. Never mind sporting integrity - where is the moral integrity there? "And there is no line to be drawn in the sand. Rangers have not been punished enough in their eyes and along with one or two people who have a vested interest within SPL clubs, our right to past titles will be challenged. They want what we and our fans bring, yet seem determined to strip us of every bit of our dignity. It has to stop. "Sadly, only one Scottish football body has offered us any help or assistance - the SFL and I would like to thank David Longmuir, Jim Ballantyne and 29 of their 30 member clubs for inviting us into the SFL. "We are grateful for the opportunity. We are looking forward to the challenges ahead, making new friends in the months ahead and having a positive impact on the SFL. "It is now over five months since Rangers went into administration. It is time to start playing football again - and I am not alone in thinking this. "In recent days I have bumped into Celtic, Hearts and Motherwell fans, and they were saying the same thing - "It's time to stop kicking Rangers and start getting Scottish football looking forward not back". "I couldn't agree more." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supras Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) The SPL has played an absolute blinder here, they got everything they want and Rangers were left with f**k all. Also fair play to McCoist for so utterly destroying his reputation. I didn't think he had it in him, maybe he's taking tips from Neil Lennon.

Leepylee Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 The latest piece on bbc sport website seems to suggest the only hold up is wether the duel contract investigation goes ahead or not. Interesting the conditions of the temp licence includes the words they reserve their position regarding ebt investigation that's interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Oh do shut up eh? It'll be water off a f*cking duck's back for most of us I'll bet. So you admit you've been cheating, stealing results from teams, lying, robbing the government an just generally the most debased "institution" in Scotland, but you canna take yer punishment and you're proud of that? Crawl back into your bottle of buckie, in your manky 80's rangers top (BTW you're not rangers anymore), and try not to drag your knuckles too much. Scum and vermin since 18something; scum and vermin 2012-............you go bust again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aslo this quote sums it up for me ""And having said they don't want us - they do want a bigger share of the TV money that our presence will bring to the SFL and its clubs.
