I'm disappointed more Supporters Organisations haven't issued statements like DST, or even collaborated to put out a joint statement. Sadly for a lot of fans it's a case of see what happens. If the SPL do as as they hope, they'll all be surprised then carry on as normal and maybe still go and watch their shite team every other week depending on how shite they are being. If they don't get what they want, they'll not be surprised and take it as evidence of the corruption and self interest they always knew existed and won't bother going to games, seeing the inevitable collapse of the game as further proof of what they were saying all along. Anything more proactive seems unlikely. And to an extent why should there be. Clubs have done very little to try and entice fans back to the game and while the ruling bodies have seemingly ignored alot of our concerns.

So say there is a NewCo, and say they are demoted to the lower leagues somewhere. Would that encourage more folk to go along to Pittodrie next season than went along this seaon, regardless of how shit or otherwise we are playing? Showing support for our club standing upto the scum and taking a financial hit?

Lowest league crowd since 1979....but we were quite good then, I'm confused. Anyway lot of hysterics here. Not the worst, just more of the same. Season was over as soon as that wee rat scored at Hampden.

Every statement there sounds absolute bollocks 1)How can they guarrentee anything without the result of the HMRC case being known? 2) How can they say Whyte won't get anything when they won't have their day in court with his dodgy lawyers till Oct? 3) How can they know this till the result of the SPL enquiry (stop sniggering at the back there) is known? bullshit

I don't believe a word these guys say.

There should be more in the public conciousness surrounding big buisness and Govt sanctioned tax dodges, hell on Newsnight last night they exposed that at least 2000 Civil Servants have deals that avoid PAYE and NI, but that's a seperate topic. If rangers were to agree a CVA with HMRC good luck to them. Countless clubs have done the same in the past and if the creditors are willing to accept their debts being virtually wiped out that is up to them. The issue are 1)If a CVA can't be agreed and the club is liquidated, or any newco is set up to isolate the debt from the club then having failed to cover even a fraction of their debt, and as a new club they should have no right to enter any league, far less the SPL. None of this can really be determined till the result of the BTC (unless Miller sets up his incubator-thing) 2) If they are shown to have used double contracts they should have all trophies won while using these trophies removed from the record and be heavily punished - relegation and signing ban at the least. So despite all todays bluster the two big issues are still seamingly miles away 1) What is the result of the BTC 2) What is the result of the SPL enquiry Even if Bill Miller decides to do what ever he is suggesting he is going to do this will take at least 4-6wks. This has a bit to run yet.

Vodaphone, Goldmansachs et al all came to agreements with HMRC to avoid alot more tax than rfc will be avoiding without their consent.

I've seen rumours he tried to set some kind of tour up to try and compete with Nascar, which unsuprisingly failed, leading to him being sued left right and centre, not seen any concrete sources though. The SFA should judge him not "fit and proper" just for the banter anyway

ffs, must be some underlying reason for him to get a PE, pretty unusal in a young fit guy like him.

Hopefully feature on Sat as popping down to Killie for the game

We scored :ultras: :ultras:

clangers Magennis Reynolds, Anderson Considine Jack Arnasson Rae Fyvie Masson Vernon ??? What position does Masson play?

Sunnybank

I'll be there in spirit

In all this "we need rangers" bullshit, has anyone ever asked what it would take for these guys to say Rangers should be booted out the league? How far would they have to go before the assorted Scottish media and football establishment felt that perhaps rangers had gone too far?

You're just full of hate though jim.

"you're a big fat bigoted arsehole"

oh yes please

Have not heard this before. When's the next deadline?

Would like to see Hibs relegated, just for some light relief, so hopefully a win. coyr

booooooooooooooo
