Handsome_Devil Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm listening to the 'experts' on Sportsound. What a load of vacuous drivel. They clearly know absolutely fuck all about what is going on with the Rangers situation, or what the future holds. It's cringeworthy. In fairness they're in a complete no-win here...they can hardly not talk about it yet at the same time it's not surprising they're out of their depth. The one real criticism I'd make of all media recently is that they're not using legal/finance experts enough when these people know what they're talking about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Europe? Not a chance So what was all the huffing and puffing about them applying post-deadline? Maybe the SFA just played a wee april fool on them. They phoned Rangers on sunday and told them to just apply anyway, gave the lads in the office a right good laugh They were feeling left out that we were all having a laugh at their expense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~~~ Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) The meeting with regan http://forum.rangers...entry1059920692 they really are full of it We then asked that as Scotland's most successful club, most famous club, the club that has provided most players to the national side and put the most money into the SFA coffers, what was the SFA doing to help us? He said he couldn't do anything to help Rangers any more than any other club. We asked again, have you done anything at all to help the club since Feb 14? He said he had taken some calls, perhaps half a dozen, from the administrators and been as helpful as he could be to them. We stated we were aghast that the CEO of the SFA had done nothing in his power to help the country's biggest club, apart from a few phone calls which were no doubt about technicalities and not assistance.He then asked us what we thought he should have done. We replied that they could have deferred all charges until after the club exited admin, that they could have offered to pay other SFA members what they were owed at this time out of the SFA's vast coffers, and agree repayment with Rangers either out of SFA/SPL prize money or the admin/new owners. Any help would not be forgotten by Rangers fans, and there could certainly have been a deal put in place with the club to guarantee repayment. He refused to consider these points and again stated that Rangers had breached articles and had to be punished accordingly. We said that there was a PERCEPTION amongst Rangers fans that the SFA were acting unsympathetically and were taking this opportunity to attack the club, and his answers to date at this meeting would not discourage those with this mindset. At this time he again got angry and stood up and said he wouldn't continue with the meeting if we were going to accuse him of bias. When it was pointed out that we were not doing this, merely pointing out that those we were representing would infer this, he sat down again, albeit temporarily. We asked if he could confirm that if a Kilmarnock or Partick Thistle were to follow us into administration, that the SFA would immediately look to its articles to see if they had breached anything and could be charged, and would offer no help to these clubs whatsoever? SR didn't like this question and when he meekly responded that he was there to uphold the articles and take action accordingly, we said we didn't believe that answer was a viable one. He said he had had enough and stood up and started to walk towards one of our group to shake hands, and angrily remarked 'quell surprise' to nobody in particular. We were astonished and angered that he would show himself up in this way. That type of childish remark was grossly insulting and indicated that he had thought all along that we would be there to accuse him of bias, despite the fact that he had asked us directly three times if we were accusing him of bias and three times we had said we did not. That clearly was not enough. SR had clearly come into the meeting with a closed mind about what he was about to face, and in hindsight it is abundantly clear he was looking to get out of the meeting ASAP. SR was out the door and being closely followed by DB when on of our group called after him "away to report back to Lawwell?" It must be made abundantly clear that SR was already through the doorway, with DB close behind when this happened, so to say that that was the final straw is an outright lie, and we therefore call for Mr Regan to withdraw this accusation immediately and to apologise for his behaviour in storming out at a difficult question. Our member apologised to the rest of the group for this outburst but it was in sheer frustration at the indignant way SR had just conducted himself, and to the answers we got from him during the meeting which in our mind clearly state his intentions to hammer Rangers hard for CW’s lies.

~~~ Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Oh dear. My heart really bleeds for them....not. How far up their own arse can they get??!! It just shows the mentality of Rangers fans, even some of the comments are hilarious Asking if he was heading to report back to Lawell seems a perfectly valid question - no need for an apology and, in fact, a question that Regan should have answered how the f**k does some english chump whos career has consisted of management & admin positions at breweries & cricket clubs (basically anywhere with a decent salary) end up being in charge of scottish football. fucking shambles We have been out manoeuvred by the anti rangers brigade, we have zero influence in the sfa and within the so called corridors of power. SR should be top of the list for getting his jotters, he has achieved nothing and is under the influence of liewell. Regan attended St Bede's RC School in County Durham.He was headhunted for the SFA job by Paul Nolan of Nolan Partners. This company is a business partner of Celtic. Paul Nolan is supposedly a friend of John Reid. Regan has previous business links with Peter Lawwell(Coors and Carling) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghPar1975 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Having seen the report on SSN the admin team seem to be peddlng the line that they are very confident Rangers will be out of admin before the end of the season. Still cant help but feel that this will all pass over...although if ticketus become a creditor and the big tax case go against them (and the lack of Euro footy next season) then Rangers 2012 might yet happen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
