Nellie The Don Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17851897 Rangers manager Ally McCoist 'disgusted' by threats to SFA panel Rangers manager Ally McCoist says he is disgusted by threats made against the Scottish FA panel that handed out punishments to the club. Police have advised the panel members after their identities were revealed. McCoist had sought the identity of the three men after a 12-month transfer ban was imposed on the club. "I would not for one moment want anyone to interpret my remarks as a signal to engage in any form of threatening behaviour," said McCoist. "Such activity disgusts me and anyone who engages in it does Rangers Football Club nothing but harm. No Rangers supporter should get themselves involved in it - not now nor at any time. Continue reading the main story “I hope that our appeal can be dealt with by the SFA as quickly as possible” Ally McCoist Rangers manager "Our focus has got to be firmly on ensuring that the club's case in appealing the sanctions imposed on us is put forward robustly and in the appropriate manner." That appeal could take place next week, as Rangers' administrators Duff & Phelps continue the process of identifying a preferred bidder to take control of the club. The names of those responsible for imposing the year-long transfer embargo were published on internet sites and the SFA said all three received "abusive and threatening communication". The punishments, which also included fines, related to several alleged breaches of SFA rules by Rangers and owner Craig Whyte. "I would like to make quite clear my position in relation to the decision by the SFA's judicial panel which earlier this week imposed sanctions against Rangers which have far reaching consequences for our club and Scottish football," added McCoist. "I firmly believe that decisions of this magnitude should be fully transparent and everyone should have confidence in the system that has been created to deliver such a finding. "When I called for full transparency on Tuesday I took the view that the decision by the judicial panel should be subject to proper scrutiny. It is unthinkable in any walk of life that such a significant punishment would be meted out without full transparency. "I fully understand that there are difficult decisions to be taken in football and they will never suit everyone but in this day and age clarity and transparency are surely of paramount importance. "Rangers Football Club was a victim of what happened during the tenure of Craig Whyte. The club was not an accomplice, a co-conspirator nor a perpetrator of wrongdoing. We suffered from it and still are. "I hope that our appeal can be dealt with by the SFA as quickly as possible as the situation for the club and the possible ramifications for Scottish football are very serious." I'm shocked. SHOCKED to find there is gambling going on in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasgow sheep Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 'Thugs have made transparency and accountability impossible' Published on 26 April 2012 Michael Grant TEN months ago it was trumpeted as the most emphatic victory of this or any other season. It was held up as Stewart Regan's finest hour. The chief executive pushed for a revolution at the Scottish Football Association and, boy, did he get it. On June 7 it was proposed that they redraw the governing body from within, tearing it down and building it back up. There were 93 SFA members in the room and when it was asked if there were any objections not a single hand went up. The various resolutions were carried 93-0. One of them concerned the creation of a new Judicial Panel to handle rule-breaking, ie exactly the same panel which delivered such a stinging verdict on Rangers on Monday night. Ten months ago everything about the new Judicial Panel was explained to the clubs, every step of the procedures was outlined to them, every strength and advantage was presented and discussed. Three-man panels would hear any case and the individuals would be drawn from a pool of around 100 former players, managers and other football and legal figures. The panels would be independent and anonymous. It sounded sensible. Every SFA member at the annual general meeting inside Hampden liked the sound of it and agreed to it. Rangers, like the rest, had no objection. Ally McCoist's primal scream against the verdict which crashed down on the club this week – a £160,000 fine and a 12-month ban on signing anyone older than 18 – went beyond anger at the outcome. It amounted to a challenge to what his club and all the others signed up to last summer. His language was confrontational. He talked of "this supposedly independent Judicial Panel". The use of "supposedly" said it all. He didn't stop there. "Who are these people? I want to know who these people are. I'm a Rangers supporter and the Rangers supporters and the Scottish public deserve to know who these people are, people who are working for the SFA. Make no mistake about it, this is an SFA decision. They have appointed the panel so therefore they are working for the SFA, but who are they? I think we have a right to know who is handing out this punishment to us, I really do." How could McCoist not have known who made the decision? Their names may not have been made public but there was no attempt to keep them a secret from Rangers. How could there be? Rangers' director of football Andrew Dickson represented the club at the hearing. It didn't make sense. Throughout this saga McCoist has represented Rangers and their supporters impressively. He's put in endless hours and held firm as a real figurehead and presence when the club otherwise would be completely rudderless. But he has looked understandably stressed recently and on Tuesday it was as if he sat down for an interview and allowed his judgment to fly out of the room before he spoke. He is a good man, a decent guy, but his demand that the SFA "name names" was as irresponsible as it was out-of-character. There is a perfectly good reason why the SFA's Judicial Panel has to try to work under the protection of anonymity. Scotland, or at least the west of Scotland, has not shown that it is mature or civilised enough in its thinking to take major issues involving Rangers and Celtic at face value. An obsession with finding an agenda, or allocating allegiances whether they exist or not, is applied to anyone involved in football's disciplinary process. It would be merely tiresome were it not for its potential also to be sinister and dangerous. Just ask Neil Lennon. Names and details of "the Hampden three" were available on website messageboards and on Twitter yesterday. The argument for circulating their identities was based on the principles of transparency and accountability. Well, sadly thugs have made that impossible. Everyone knows that identifying those involved in controversial cases becomes a catalyst for threatening phone calls, emails and letters, or worse. It becomes far more hassle than it's worth. It's only a matter of months since a campaign of intimidation, harassment and much, much worse disfigured Lennon in particular and Scotland by extension. Now football's senior figures – none more so than Old Firm managers who have the ability to mobilise and whip-up not only decent fans but a minority of fanatics – have a responsibility to ensure that targets are not painted on people's backs. McCoist was fully entitled to lash out about the SFA's verdict. No-one could even deny his right to say it could "kill" Rangers. It's up to the SFA to decide whether the "supposedly independent" jibe is something they will want him to explain. But the demand to name names personalised a verdict which would have been made in good faith. If the three men who made the decision are to be named, is every Judicial Panel to be identified from now on – including the one which will consider Rangers' appeal? Is the agreement all 93 SFA members signed up to last summer to be ripped up because the verdicts aren't always "right"? Nobody holds a gun to these panel members' heads and forces them to act for the SFA. They aren't kidnapped and ordered to deliberate on cases. They are unpaid and volunteer for it. They're perfectly capable of mucking up a decision, or misunderstanding the evidence, or acting with more leniency or severity than they should. But if they think they're going to be outed and hounded for unpopular decisions they'll simply walk away. If that happens en masse, Regan's much-heralded and universally-approved new system will collapse. Where does Scottish football go then? What the panel members signed up for included anonymity. And one of the clubs who promised it was Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasgow sheep Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 So which clubs will the Rangers Support and Jardine decide to sanction for their victimisation of the queens loyal glasgow rangers football club? Celtic - well obviously they are behind this whole thing, it is, I believe, a tarrier conspiracy United - well they used be called Dundee Hibernian so they must be part of the papish plot, and they made rangers fans pay to get into a match or something....I forget the detail Hibs - well the clue is in the name and the colour of strip, it's basically admitting their guilt. Hearts - for expecting to get paid for Wallace and failing to step up in their role as the Queen's loyal Glasgow Rangers Reserve (edinburgh) to defend the one true club Aberdeen - Simmie is the mastermind of the plot after all St Mirren - for sacking that director and not selling up their SPL licence to a potential NewCo Rangers Raith Rovers for single handedly inflicting the 12-month signing ban any others?

One Bobby Clark Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Rangers Football Club was a victim of what happened during the tenure of Craig Whyte. The club was not an accomplice, a co-conspirator nor a perpetrator of wrongdoing. We suffered from it and still are. So, are we just supposed to forget the EBT and "alleged" tax fraud, the double contracts and all the other nonsense that went on pre-Whyte?

glasgow sheep Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 So a guy that was an integral part of the board and a guy who stated he didn't want to buy rangers and is a hibs fan. Sounds like the dream team, and with Ticketus not involved just what will they be doing for cash? Plenty more lols to come I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely Ticketus haven't been stupid enough to sign up for a deal this dodgy? Also they must be some company to be able to pay out 20 odd million and not see any of it back, there must be 'something' going on there???
