It should also be noted that the SFA hasn't completely closed the door on further action. That goes for both the Big and Wee tax cases.

A reminder of the Fergus v Farry spat referred to.
"The image of the game in Scotland can only be damaged further by 'raking over the coals' of everything that has happened in the last six years for a further lengthy period of time.".
Can't agree. The image of the Scottish game is damaged by the authorities overlooking the blatant disregard for the correct registration of players by one of its then biggest clubs!! My dad, a Broughton Road boy and Hibee since the early 50s, says I am obsessed by this but I don't think I am!!
If Hibs have changed their minds about releasing a statement it's because something has changed. It could be that they are protecting RP or it could be they have a strategy and that doesn't involve grandstanding in the press or RP giving up a position of influence with the SFA.
In in truth we have no idea what is going on in the background here but it's looking more likely that it will all come out in the wash. I do find it hard to believe that Petrie is corrupt though.
The main issue with thecelticblogs position is that they only want justice for Celtic. Furthermore they want Celtic to replace Rangers as the team with most influence. Neither the team or supporters have a egalitarian bone in their body.
"Given the nature of the issues, it will be impossible to satisfy any supporters when satisfying the supporters of Rangers was, and always has been, our sole mission'
I have a feeling and a hope that this stance by the SFA will unify fans to push through an independent review.
Wasn't that fussed before but this statement reeeks of a cover up. Why on earth would a governing body refuse to participate in a review, its taken weeks for them to come up with a half baked excuse.
The SFA are just reeking of fear - I would love to know what it is they are terrified of. Hopefully a spell in Barlinnie for some of them......
Doesn't really matter if the turkeys don't vote for xmas... they'll still be on the table when it comes.
Combining their refusal to take part in an independent investigation with this statement, it looks to me like the SFA hope to deflect attention from their misdeeds by going after Oldco Rangers again. Perhaps they hope that if they double Craig Whytes's lifetime ban from football other matters will be forgotten. They're mistaken.
How much would it cost to get an impartial revue? Surely not much per inteterested party?

As someone pointed out earlier, Regan and Doncaster are English and therefore will probably have none of the usual 'OF baggage' of supporting either one of the 'Ugly Sisters'. What I do think has happened is that when they got these posts, they've been told by the previous incumbents something along the lines of 'This is the way Scottish Football has always operated so just carry on in the same way - you're answerable to no-one - even the media !' !. However, the way in which they've both bent over backwards to aid & abet the Hun is very strange, they've done everything bar wear a Hun-scarf and sing the 'Sash' !!.The Hun MUST have something over them (and others) to have merited the staunch support that Regan & Doncaster have given them and the first thing that springs to mind is money/bungs !. I have a feeling we're maybe witnessing the 'End' and don't think we'll have long to wait - someone will crack !

Here is the letter the SPFL sent the SFA. It's perfectly reasonable and for the SFA to be refusing means they have something very big to hide.
I can't believe our chairman is in on this.

Every club should have an organised protest.. Every game. Whether it is a banner, a song, every game.
Actually that's your interpretation, not a fact.
It's not incumbent on RP or Hibs to make statements just because you demand it.
As Tom English said last night, the SFA were never going to agree the enquiry in this form as the SPFL is effectively putting all the blame on the SFA.
A board that may have voted 7 1 to do so. The one may feel that staying put and taking control when the flack ousts the current chairman and being better able to clean up the game. Until we know he's someone supporting the move on group isn't he entitled to be assumed innocent?
And the balance of the vote might be 7-1 with Rodders being the lone voice. Most committees operate on majority is presented as unanimous to show solidarity. If Rod's dirty, that will come out eventually and be dealt with one way or the other. Like many, I'm pre judging nothing.
