Heard the figure of £300k kicking about because hes only got 1 year left on his contract. Would be stupid to go to them IMO but money talks these days.

I dare say it would substantially increase his personal earnings, but what a lack of ambition on his part if he goes...

Will Romanov stick the fingers up to them or be swayed by the green (no pun intended).

Had a nice Neanderthal conversation with a hun today;

Me: So the club you're now following is a new club?

Hun: Naw, we're no ya plum, we got our old membership transferred

Me: but the oldco went bust (liquidated), so it only stands to reason you're a new company, no?

Hun: Naw, av awready telt yi, we're the same club, same history, same staff, same stadium and same training ground.

Me: Does that mean you're the same club that foreign clubs have written to UEFA to clarify whether you owe them money or not, and yet, here you are splashing out transfer fees when other transfers still remain unpaid?

Hun: Naw, those debts legally died with the oldco

Me: I thought you said you were the same club?

Hun: we are

Me: See you later ya tadger

Both the club and fans have absolutely no shame.

It's as if this newco have taken us all for mugs. The media are loving it and the authorities don't really care as they just want newco back in the top division as soon as possible.

They've pleaded poverty to avoid all their debt and as soon as they start again the money magically appears from mystery men. They have they cheek to say they have been "punished" as well.

As there's absolutely no change in the pipeline, unless you count bigger leagues to let sevco back sooner, things will just go back to exactly the way they were before.

They've just been allowed to stock up on SPL standard players before any ban kicked in. It's pretty disgusting and downright depressing.

As long as sevco are OK and we get back to what "everyone" wants.:rolleyes:

Absolutely ridiculous if a 3rd Div team, even Rangers, can bid that sort of money for a couple of SPL players.

I also dont understand why they are spending excessive amounts of money on players? I think McCoist is a poor manager, but surely even he could get them promoted with that team (and the embargo is only for 12 month), why overspend on these sorts of players?

Although not with Rangers presumably - and if Rangers don't sign him today, then he won't be able to sign for them until January 2014?

Hearts don't need to sell this transfer window, they could always run the risk of their 300K being more in January to an english championship side. Rangers have to buy, they won't be making any moves in January.

Surely they are only weighing the costs involved for these players against what it would cost the club if they fail to make it out of the 3rd division ( or is it the 4th?)? Just how good a manager McCoist is will be judged on how quickly and the manner in which he gets this new club into the SPL (for the first time I might add - :faf:)

The registration embargo lasts until 31st August 2013. Unattached players can register at any time, so I think Rangers can make offers to out of contract players over next summer then bring them in on 1st September so the ban only covers the first month of next season.

Can anyone confirm this?

No my understanding of it is they cannot register players out with the age restriction, so whether players are attached or unattached to clubs makes no difference. They can however renew existing contracts with players already there- Kyle for instance if he can lose those extra 4 stone.

PatHead

31-08-2012, 10:11 AM

Wouldn't surprise me if the transfer window expires on 1st Sept next year and The Rangers get to sign whoever they like on the last day. That would mean they were only banned signing for 1 window. Wouldn't put anything past SFA.

31-08-2012, 12:56 PM

I don't understand these SPL players flocking to join a club languishing in the 3rd Div. As keech as Fertz are, who would give up an SPL team (even a pi$h one like the mingers down in Gorgie) to play for some club which will realistically be, even counting corrupt and biased authorities bending the rules in order to get The Bigots into a reconstructed SPL (if that happens), stuck in the lower leagues with no Euro ties for at least the next few years? Sounds like career suicide. Unless Ra Peepul are still paying big ££££££££ (someone else's ££££££££ no doubt that they've borrowed on the never-never) for such players.

Were I an SPL player (ha ha, fat chance, me with two left feet) I wouldn't even consider Rangers, any more than I wouldn't consider Stranraer, Forres, Wick Academy or Clachnacuddin. Giving up an SPL club for a 3rd Div club. Eh? No makey sensey even to a thicko like Gene Genie here. :crazy:Some folk need their heids looked at.

I like the fact that under SFL rules clubs are only allowed 22 senior signed payers. Since the Rainchurs are keen to be recompensed for Whittaker, Naismith etc. they have retained their registrations thus reducing the number of players they can bring in. These players are apparently allowed to play for their new clubs under temporary arrangements while the Rainchurs claims are considered. This was a reason for Broadfoot having contract cancelled, to keep number of signed players down.

Super Swally was quoted last night about five or six new players coming in today. Dream on McFud!!!!!

Will they now turn on SFL?

It's also interesting that they have not vented their spleen on EUFA for their three year European ban. They know they can't bully them the same way they have the SFA and SFL.

You really couldn't make it up.

They are buying all these players because The Rangers fans "deserve them" according to McCoist.

My other theory is McCoist the sleekit barsteward wants to rub the SFL's noses in it with some utter humiliations.

He's also a c rap manager who has proved he doesn't know what he's doing. And on top of that he's simply continuing the same policy they had before and got them into this position before. How much is Elbows on, and Alexander, some suggestions of £600k a year each minimum.

I don't understand why some good young un's and some decent old ones can't win Div 3. McCoist is poison and anyone going there needs to be pilloried, Green is looking to get out ASAP with his pockets loaded. The numbers don't add up, the cash will run out.

"In an interview with The Scotsman, Templeton said of his childhood, "My dad left and I went to my mum's side who were all Celtic fans so I ended up following them. I grew up as a Celtic fan but I loved watching Brian Laudrup because of the way he played"

As much as he is a diving wee nyaff, I think it's a travesty that a talented young player like him will be plying his trade in the third division. If he sees out his contract at Ibrox he will spend the next 3 seasons playing lower division football when he should be pushing on for an international place and looking for a move to English football. Given the yams showing against Liverpool, he may well have already been one earmarked by some English clubs as one to keep tabs on. He's been very badly advised I suspect.

And yet somehow Sevco fans fully believe the SFA is corrupt AGAINST them!!

More to the point why where they given an extra hour more than anyone else Britain?

There being punished for cheating yet they've been allowed to prepare for the punishment to have as minimum an effect as possible

I love an Old Firm conspiracy theory as much as anyone but there's no mileage in this one I'm afraid!

The SFL's deadline for this window was at midnight, whereas the SPL deadline was 11pm.

Anyone in divisions 1, 2 or 3 could have signed a player up until midnight last night, not just Sevco 5088.

Why doesn't Romanov pull the plug.
We'll get liquidated and form Hearts Newco. Hearts Newco will buy Tynecastle for £1m and start again in division 3 debt free.

It worked for Rangers - I'm sure the authorities will bend over backwards to let us do the same

Loads saying that if McGowan goes they are finished.

I wonder if Vlad could be the money man behind Greene?

he would like quite at home on a street corner with his cap at a jaunty angle about to rob some old dear with his tracksuit on.

he also makes Garry O'Connor sound like winston churchill!!!

This is a ****er.

"Templeton was desperate to leave Hearts for any club offering big money and his contract was running out in May 2013. The club put a huge amount of effort into keeping Templeton at Tynecastle, spending many months trying to find an agreement.

"Twelve months of discussions and negotiations since the start of 2011-12 season did not help. He has rejected every one of our offers completely, regardless of terms.

"After last January he switched off completely after the club rejected a laughable offer from a minor Championship club.

"Callum Paterson is the example of commitment and a true Jambo. Despite active interest from Rangers, the boy immediately committed to a new deal the club offered him in an effort to keep best young talent at the club."

:jamboak:

At this moment for a 17/18 year old, he looks a good prospect, however as we are all too well aware, he has a lot to learn and may fall quickly out of form and may struggle to re-capture his current form, but thats up to him!

None the less, at least Hearts have held onto him.

Even so, I think the Templeton transfer will ring deep with the jambo hoardes.

It's quite difficult to think of yourself as a big team when a third division club can cherry pick your players.

I'm surprised Vlad sanctioned this given the race for second is wide open this year.

All in all, I think it is a significant moment in the slow but long overdue downturn to reality and a true financial level over at Tynecastle

All you need to say is that a football club needs to have 3 years audited accounts to play in Europe. They're banned from Europe because they don't have that.

If they're the same club then why are they unable to play in Europe.

I know the answer!

The absence of 3 yrs accounts didn't stop them getting into the SFL though, did it? It should have, but the "authorities" in Scotland didn't seem to notice that. Funny, eh?

I dont think there is any such rule for domestic competition. The only reason it comes into play is that clubs who play in the SPL are required to have/be qualified to get a UEFA club licence, which is the thing that requires the three years accounts.

Thats my understanding of it anyway.

Swept under the carpet, but they were happy to give Sevco the oldco registration and fudge the signing ban so it became an irrelevance. More recently we've had the joke suspended sanctions on Sally and Green's outbursts. One rule for them and another for the rest of us.

Did the SFL clubs not vote Sevco entry into div 3? After denying them entry into Div 1?

Wasn't privvy to the all day Sevco/HFA presentation, but the jist of it was agree or lose the SPL money, they were also threatened with a break away league if they didn't allow in Sevco. Shameful bully boy tactics, several SFL chairman stated so at the time.

TBH, I think they were sold a pup/lied to that Sevco is a newco, so don't tar them with the RFC brush, etc... But then right after the SFL3 vote, the HFA award Sevco the oldco registration and trumpet them as a continuation of a 'proud history' of RFC. The same 'proud history' that saw them collapse under a nuclear cloud of scandalous corruption. The main thing is they were told giant fibs that the visiting horde would make them a mint, now we know the extra ground and policing costs for the visiting horde's away fixtures eat up most of the TV revenue. They were lied to, bullied. The amazing thing is despite all this one voted against and four abstained.

There were two votes.

The first was on associate membership of the SFL itself. 29-1 in favour.

The second was on membership of SFL1. 25 against.

time will tell, but with a trophy in the bank (gutted though I am to consider it) and with der H*n out the way, it's a surprise that there hasnt been more grandstanding from Lithuania about the demise of the mafia (as he - Vlad - percieves it) and about the chance to challenge the one remaining ugly sister.

I assume he wanted to get them into the CL but knows if they manage the league placing the pre qualifying games are still too big a hurdle - even on the old budget. I think oldco in 09 were the last league winners to go straight in and collect the CL dough. Dough they got in 03 05 07 09 and 10 by fielding ineligible players!
