We can hum and haw but no matter the verdict and/or punishment, who arrives at it and when its is arrived at the one thing that is for certain is that newco Rangers will get off lightly in the end.
They have so far and they are laughing at all of us.

Someone pointed out slightly earlier in the thread, that Charley would probably be delighted if the titles were stripped, giving him a massive 'They're all agin us' rallying cry for his hordes. He's a businessman with no allegiance to anything other than profit and couldn't give a tinkers cuss about a few titles being removed.

FWIW I think the titles will be struck from the record...and that will be it...end of. Loads of bile and gnashing of teeth from Mordor, but at the end of the day, they'll still claim they won them on the park, and nobody can take that away from them....not to mention still being the worlds greatest club, with the greatest supporters to boot.
They make me

Vile, disgusting institution that brings shame on us all, and Chuckie will have to put up token resistance to placate the horde when the titles are stripped. But I like their "new" anti Scotland stance, the civilised majority in Scotland can get on with supporting the national team and leave the social underclass that supports Sevco 2012 to support... Sevco 2012, in their exciting third division adventure.

Saying that I doubt he'd be asked such a pertinent question.
Your average journalist doesn't seem to do pertinence on this subject.

I don't understand why not a single person who received money through the ebt has been asked this. Especially the likes of billy dodds who aren't exactly very far from the bbc sportsound team. Originally Posted by Kato

IF they are stripped of the titles am I right in thinking Celtic will be awarded the titles and they will become the most successful club in terms of league titles? If so they wont be the ones doing the laughing. Originally Posted by Spike Mandela

Does anyone know if the titles will be passed to Celtic or would the titles Rangers won just be voided off?

Could this mean that those that received payments from Rangers EBT are individually liable for Income tax and NIC's? Unless Minty fizzes up and says that tax was already deducted and that he (Murray, Rangers, Rangers director's) are actually guilty of sharking the tax raised? Originally Posted by malcolm

It's a bit of a curate's egg for me Spike. I reckon Rangers/Sevco in the bottom tier is a reasonable outcome - I'm not sure how much more we could realistically expect, and if we can call it 'lower league obscurity' by the end of this season so much the better. If those connected with Rangers had any morals, sense or intelligence they would also be humiliated, but that's probably too much to hope for. They're only laughing because they're thick.

On the other hand, the way we've got to this position is depressing. The behaviour of pretty much everyone connected with Rangers/Sevco has been disgusting and the actions of the football authorities has generally been a disgrace to the game. The MSM has shown just how much in thrall to the OF and therefore ineffectual they are, but at least the blog medium and fan power have had a real and lasting effect.
And the fans of opposing clubs have a new big stick to beat the bigots with for the next century or so. We must use it at every opportunity.

Downfall: How Rangers FC Self Destructed
http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-revi...owViewpoints=1
Phil Mac Giolla Bhain's book was only released on Saturday but the Hun masses are currently caning it on Amazon.
Not surprising down to their 'We are the Victims' mentality but what's probably more surprising is how people have had the chance to get it delivered and then read the whole thing since it's launch on Saturday.
Clearly a thread floating about on Follow Follow telling everyone to go and attack it

He's a sectarian pro-IRA bigot don't you know?

How bad is the spelling in some of those reviews?
If anyone should know how to spell 'biggot' its surely a Rangers supporter
Might give the book a read though, even if it is written by a man who 'revealed himself as an IRA supporting biggot'.

You want to have seen his puss, rember the purple away top? Same colour. He's never read it but "it's Fenian *****" "not a word of truth" and my favourite "should be banned because it's sectarian"
