RANGERRAB

Don't worry. Soon there will be no SPL. August 10th is its Armaggedon day when it discovers how much (if anything) SKY are prepared to pay for next season's SPL. Just watch for a fashion surge in brown trousers from then on

do we really know for sure the problem with the SPL is the removal of SPL titles ?

dean shiels may be a decent signing but it's really an out-and-out striker we really need. Dean isn't really that. more of an attacking MF IMO from what I've seen of him

Either that is the case or Leggo's big exclusive today about Ally playing hardball with Rhegan over the loss of titles etc is complete 'Barry White'!

leggo's exclusive was with SFA not stripping us of Scottish Cup wins. How could we keep SC & league cups but not SPL titles ? same players. I suspect SPL are in blind panic as SKY are ready to walk and want monies from our televised games

forget the SFA. I'm more concerned about whatever the SPL's problem is. As I've said in earlier posts is it not the case that for this new proposed transfer embargo we'd only be unable to register players in JAN2013? aug31 2013 is on a sunday so surely the transfer window would stay open a day or 2 into september when we could sign players ????

What's the SPL problem?

griffiths not the answer. was poor last season for the trainspotters

Surely the SFA (as the governing body) can over-rule the SPL ? My take on MM's statement is that agreement with the SFA has been reached provided we accept this delayed tranfer embargo.

Ally needs to get to work right away. We need bodies in now especially a striker or two

IIRC we may be able to get away with only missing the January window as our transfer registration ban expires 31/08/13 whilst the window closes 02/09/13 due to 31/08/13 falling on a Saturday.

EXACTLY. This is what I've been saying. All in all it's only really JAN2013 when we'll be completely unable to bring anyone in. We need to get cracking however and get bodies in.

Does SFL2 not have any transfer windows?

no idea m8

Just hope we've not volunteerd for anything else.

I think this embargo isn't as bad as might have been as I said on others posts.

Remember SEP01 2013 is on a sunday next year so the transfer window probably won't close til Monday SEP02 or the day after. In saying that though we'd need to get our act together next summer regards signing players...........

IMO there'll be serious league reconstruction next summer(not to mention serious panic stations over the SPL SKY TV deal which may or may not exist by then). The worst we'll find ourselves in IMO is one division below SPL (if it's still called that by then)

That's why it's important we make good signings over these next 6 weeks. Preferably players in the under 25 age bracket.

think about this for a minute.................

 

we can sign anyone in next 6 weeks.

we can't sign anyone in Jan 2013.

we can't sign anyone until Aug31 2013.

 

BUT Who's to say we couldn't get a few Bosmans to train with us next summer (and maybe play them as trialists in friendlies) and sign them on SEP1 next year ?

BUT - who is to say we couldn't get a couple of Bosman's to train with us over next summer & sign them on SEPT 1 2013 ????

Has anyone else heard rumour SKY are quitting SPL altogether ? how many SPL clubs would that mean going into administration !!!!! and have the SPL considered the scenario where SPL clubs won't be able to complete their fixtures ?

Green must deliver an exocet to the SFA asap. We need to show these people we mean business. Tell them we don't recognise their kangaroo court and will still claim 54 titles regardless of what they say. Don't worry fellow bears when details of the SPL SKY contract are known on AUG10 they'll all realise their mistake then by putting us in div3. My guess is SKY may wish to leave altogether.

And btw what's compliance officer Vincent Lunny going to speak to Ally about ? apparently you can chase a referee on the pitch at hampden or call a referee a criminal and get a slap on the wrist so what's he going to do to Ally then?

Remember an EBT is technically a loan which has to be paid back at a distant date (in reality it never is paid back). It's not an additional contract as such but as I said a loan from the people administering the EBT scheme i.e. the trustees.

Fight the SFA. Fight this embargo

If we accept this illegal signing embargo then they'll come up with something else. Then something else. It will go on and on and on.

FFS can we not see it is Liewell who runs the SFA with Regan as his puppet. Green needs to fight fire with fire and start an all out assault on the corrupt SFA.

We've been punished enough: 10pt deduction to concede SPL title last season, heavily fined and not to mention demoted to div3. I rest my case

As things stand we won't be playing any football next season. We don't have SFA membership. Talk of TV deals is a farce

so why then attempt to re-impose an already declared illegal signing embargo ? surely if Rangers are killing Scottish football by being in div3 you'd want them up the leagues ASAP ?

 

Is Rhegan actually running the SFA or is he simply carrying out the orders of someone else within it i.e. Liewell ?

time for Richard Keen QC to get his wig on. Back to the Court of Session we go...............

well we take the SFA to court again and again and again til they get it into their thick heads - no more illegal sanctions !!!!

We won't have SFA licence & will struggle for 11 players. Game won't take place

This is Charles Green's first major task as our CEO - the removal of Regan ASAP
