Frankie 8,562 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 RANGERS Chief Executive Charles Green hopes SFA membership will be secured within the next 24 hours. Part of the deal will be a signing embargo for a year from September 1 but it means Rangers can sign players now ahead of the new season. Speaking exclusively to RangersTV, he revealed that a deal is now very close. He said: "We are making good progress. I spoke to the chief executive of the SFA, Stewart Regan, this morning and that went very well. "I have also just spoken to Neil Doncaster and I will be meeting both of them later today. "I'm really hopeful now that within the next 24 hours we can have this thing signed and sealed and Alastair can start loading his players on a team coach to go up and try to win a match on Sunday. "Most of the things are now clear to all parties. As far as I am concerned now we have no outstanding issues with the SFA. It's not purely process and documentation. "We have no issues with the Football League and just some minor points to resolve with the SPL and I'm hopeful we can to that today." http://www.tv.rangers.co.uk/articles/20120724/sfa-membership-close_2254024_2859083?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waltersgotstyle 307 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 was just about to post this. As far as I am concerned now we have no outstanding issues with the SFA. It's now purely process and documentation. "We have no issues with the Football League and just some minor points to resolve with the SPL and I'm hopeful we can to that today." I wonder what's been agreed 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nokiss 0 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I dread to think what we've had to accept to get our registration. Whatever the contents of any agreement, I hope that'll be that and any sanctions/punishments won't drag on for seasons to come. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewarty 2,025 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I'm getting excited about the prospect of seeing some football on Sunday! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,744 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 EBT case dropped,SPL via sky get TV rights? That would be outwith Green's control, I assume. The TV deals are done between SFA, SPL, SFL, and the respective companies, I think? Embargo and demotion to Div 3 is penalty "enough" in any sane people's mind. I think all parties under fire will only want to get playing football again and leave this stuff behind. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
