    That Doncaster isn't fir and proper to run the SPL...his latest gaff / quote, from BBC Twitter

    Alasdair Lamont
    @BBCAlLamont
    BBC Scotland sport reporter. This is an official @BBCSport account.
    · http://bbc.in/18URB

    Neil Doncaster, asked whether the SPL should have a fit and proper person test to look at potential owners of clubs, says it's difficult to come up with such a test that's fit for purpose. To illustrate his point he offers the following quote....

    "Gandhi I think may have had a criminal record and ultimately you could say he'd be a fit and proper person to run a Premier League club in Scotland, but he might be forbidden by such a test."

    Well I think it is an absolute disgrace that along comes a jambo and steals the 10,000 th post on this thread. I have been watching it all day to grab that milestone! Bloody typical, they will steal anything from us.

    Inverness CT chairman slams Rangers over civil court action

    Inverness Caledonian Thistle chairman Kenny Cameron has added his voice to that of his St Mirren counterpart Stewart Gilmour in criticising Rangers for going to the Court of Session.
    Rangers have successfully challenged a Scottish Football Association tribunal decision to impose a year-long ban on signing players aged 18 and over.
    Football rules prohibit clubs going to civil courts over football decisions.
    "This is an extremely disappointing situation," said Cameron.
    "The Court for Arbitration in Sport was the correct route for Rangers to take, just as we successfully did in the Marius Niculae dispute.
    "Taking sporting matters to the Court of Session was a serious mistake.


    Scottish football could face an international ban from Fifa over Rangers' challenge to the SFA's transfer ban on the club
    "The potential repercussions are something we certainly don't need at what is already a difficult time for Scottish football."
    A Fifa statute states that "recourse to ordinary courts of law is prohibited unless specifically provided for in the Fifa regulations".
    Caley Thistle went to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland and won their case against the Romanian striker Niculae, who had been demanding £130,000 in compensation from the club over his £400,000 transfer fee to Dinamo Bucharest in August 2008.

    At Rangers' appeal, Lord Glennie stated that the decision to uphold a transfer embargo on Rangers was beyond the powers of the SFA appeal tribunal, headed by his fellow Court of Session judge Lord Carloway.
    Lord Glennie proposed that the matter should be returned to the SFA appeal stage, although the SFA has 21 days to appeal.
    The punishments available to the SFA tribunal are a fine, expulsion from football, a ban on participation in the Scottish Cup and termination or suspension of the club's membership of the association.


    Rangers had been handed the transfer ban and a £100,000 fine by the SFA tribunal for bringing the game into disrepute since Craig Whyte's takeover in May 2011.
    They were also given another £60,000 in fines for contravening other rules.

    Speaking after the Scottish Premier League's meeting at Hampden on Wednesday, Gilmour said: "The law is an ass. I think that sums it up.
    "What's a court getting involved in football for? The decision had been made.
    "Are we going to take every single sending-off to court? Is that what we are going to end up with?
    "Sport should stay within sport."

    And former SFA president John McBeth told BBC Scotland that Rangers had "got away lightly with their transfer embargo", a sanction that the Rangers manager Ally McCoist warned could "kill" the club.

    Wouldn't say so. The penalty was meaningless, in that it made no difference to the final League places. In effect, it wasn't a penalty at all.

    Hmm...so despite Rangers claiming they had no route within the SFAs rules to take their case to the CAS......Inverness seem to have been able to get there.

    Why did the Huns not do the same. This should be cited by the SFA....Inverness were able to do it, why didn`t you?

    Case closed....Kick `em out.

    Dear all non-Bears,

    It has come to our attention that you are upset that our fight with the SFA may lead to Scotland and Scottish teams being prevented from playing in International or European matches.
    We would just like to offer our sincerest, most heartfelt declaration of how sorry we are
    No, not about it happening; about the fact that we have somehow managed to convey the wholly inaccurate impression that we give a fuck what happens to your paedophile club/pishy wee provincial side or national team.This is entirely our fault, and we promise to ensure there is no repeat of such behaviour. With that in mind, please take this as the completely definitive, unequivocal statement it is meant as. We couldn't give the first pull of a toss about you, never have and never will

    Go fuck yourself,

    It doesn't even make sense.

    They're sorry for giving the impression they're sorry, even though nobody is under the faintest illusion that we think they are sorry.

    Equally bizarre and sad.

    As days seem to run into each other in this saga, I'm confused as to what is happening right now.

    Is there not supposed to be a meeting (carried over from yesterday) to decide what should happen regarding the 'Gers Court of Session appeal?

    No

    Yesterday was a meeting of the SPL. The clubs in the morning, the Board in the afternoon. Some of the business of the clubs was carried forward to the AGM... namely, the vote on changing the voting structure. The Board meeting was discussing the double-contracts issue, but that was inconclusive, I believe.

    The Court of Session matter is for the SFA to decide.

    Confused yet?

    I actually think N D's interview - some of which is on beeb - is pretty decent and I find not that much to disagree with (full interview on Newsnight Scotland at 11pm)

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotlan...-west-18287971

    Read the text not the headline ....which is usual hacks posing a question and then trying to make it the focus when its not

    My post was made before you posted. Are you suggesting that I would predict you would make a comment on Doncaster's hair and was accusing you of being a hun in advance.

    If I could predict the future I'd be a rich man

    No - D&P have a one way agreement, Green has to buy but D&P must act in the best interests of creditors, so do not have to sell to him. They may not even be the liquidator, once the CVA fails.
    D&p can sell to greene who can go the new co route buying the assets for less than the cva and leave the old co with the bad debts. Basically the bill miller route.

    After what seems like months non-stop spouting the Hun Apologist line, he appears to have finally seen at least part of the opposing argument. Better late than never, but it remains the case that his overall performance has been abysmal. Has brought the SPL into disrepute by his 'leadership'.

    You're asking for it a bit though, choosing a favourite cheating Hun's name as your username.

    Some movement from today's emergency meeting?

    Alasdair Lamont ‏@BBCAlLamont
    SFA chief exec Stewart Regan says they'll abide by Lord Glennie ruling and refer Rangers sanction back to Appellate Tribunal




    I'm not sure where this leaves the whole situation. FIFA might not be happy. The new Tribunal ruling can either go too severe or too lenient as far as I'm concerned.
