    It will be ignored by the SFA. Your deluding yourself if you think any different.
    It’s a Police Scotland's Economic Crime Unit investigation so the SFA will have no way of squirming out of any punishment if there has been any wrong doing.

    An interesting post on Kerrydalestreet. We've all been caught up in the saga of Butcher's bunnet since last week.


    It would appear that Pinsent Masons did, in fact, do a thorough investigation into the links between Green and Whyte.
    Which concluded that Sevco 5088 was a joint Green-Whyte project which attracted many millions of pounds of investment, with the Whyte shares being hidden behind the screen of Blue Pitch (Mazen Houssami - Abelas' lawyer), Norne Ansalt (Abela), Margarita Holdings (Abela), Elias Kaisar (Abela), Riad Haddad (Abela) and Asia Credit (Chris Morgan - Abela).
    That's the Abela family from Beirut, Lebanon, who have links to Monaco (like Whyte) and Grasse, the perfume capital of France, where Whyte also had business connections.
    Those Sevco 5088 shares were then transferred almost in total to Sevco Scotland, with Blue Pitch and Margarita seen as the most significant shareholders.
    The Whyte link to Sevco 5088 is clear.
    The Whyte link to Sevco Scotland is hidden behind the Abela curtain.
    FC Spivco said Whyte had no link to Sevco Scotland. They said nothing about Sevco 5088.

    It would appear Police Scotland now have their hands on the full Pinsent Masons report.
    A moment of total panic for the Spivs.
    And the Brogues.
    And the SFA.

    Because if the truth is revealed, the SFA membership of FC Spivco has to be rescinded.

    So place your bets: Will it be Greenock Rangers or Cowdenbeath Rangers?
    And is there any truth in this?

    The DR goes in to bat for Sevco over Whytes signature on a document - can't find the link but I reckon the MSM will be spinning this particular investigation for all it's worth.

    Rangers say they will complain to the Scottish FA following comments made by Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell.

    Asked for his thoughts by a shareholder at Celtic's Annual General Meeting on why some in the media refer to Rangers as a club in existence since 1872, rather than a new club because of the liquidation of the company operating the club in 2012, Lawwell quipped: "Rory Bremner can pretend to be Tony Blair."

    In response, a statement from the Ibrox side on Friday evening read: "The club are disappointed with the comments attributed to Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell earlier today.

    "Rangers Football Club, now in its 141st year, has a proud history which has been recognised by the football authorities and was noted in a recent SPL Commission determination.

    "The club will now take this matter up with the relevant football authorities."

    Lawwell sits on the Scottish FA's main board as the representative from the governing body's Professional Game Board.
    Not sure what's funnier tbh, Lawwell's wee jibe or Sevco throwing a hissy fit.

    Typical Sevco... still, hopefully pursuing trivialities like this with their legal people will drain the club of nonexistent cash.

    Has a ring to it.

    Raises an important question for is in how we deal with them when we eventually play them. I would hope that we make it clear that we regard them as a new club that we are playing for the first time.

    I've been banging this drum since their inception last year and I hope every other club follows suit.

    In what respect? We'll have to arrange witn the police for a Category A fixture and a probable tinderbox at that. The match will be live on TV and under intense scrutiny. Our new manager whilst at ICT has already described RFC as "technically, a new club" much to the disgust of ra peepil.

    There will be 3500 of them in the away end and you can shout whatever you like at them. You might want us all to regard them as a new club but I guarantee you Hibs fans will use the following words : Hun, bluenose, bigot ****.

    That's about 20 months away if on league duty. I hope we stuff them.

    In the respect that we make it clear that we welcome the new club on their first visit to Easter road. The Match day program shows only the new clubs honours and makes no reference whatsoever to players of the old club or famous games against the old club. A blanket refusal by anyone at the club to acknowledge they are the same club.
    As both the old and new club appear to have the same set of fans then I think any insults or abuse we used to give them is transferable.

    You and I both know that Hibs won't even raise that topic.
    Rod Petrie will insist we keep our dignity and that we are calm, rational and business like. He will have a meeting with the Match Commander whose first priority is public order will issue a list of strict instructions for Hibs who will follow them to the letter.

    The Tache knows how to play the politics and will work with the manager to play everything down prior to what will no doubt be a highly charged affair. The match program will have some brief & bland filler details on Rangers current players, their current league/cup form and absolutely nothing on their trials and tribulations. The Hibs Match Announcer will also be under strict orders to do nothing more than play music and read out the teams and any scores. There will be no stupid wind ups designed to inflame.

    As an aside let us watch with interest how our chums in Gorgie deal with the Rangers situation when they meet them on League business in 2014. There will be more than a few Premiership clubs looking for a precedent there.

    See the SPFL are pursuing The Rangers for the £250,000 fine imposed for using EBTs without declaring them. They are treating it as a football debt. Can't wait to hear the screaming saying "this has nothing to do with us, it was the old club which don't exist any more except when we refer to history and trophies. We don't want any of their debts." http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25023927

    I agree with what you say, or expect from Hibernian. however, I do get a bit miffed about the Hmofc derby day programme when they list us as 1875, and reformed blah blah. our club should reciprocate with a correct mention of them being formed 1874, (under a dubious name) and actually wound up, in 1905, before starting off again. silly we argument I know, but it's a fact.

    new post from Paul McConville talking about the SPFL chasing the £250k fine from the Nimmo judgement, not much new but interesting enough and should keep this thread form slipping off the main page!

    Just don't read the comments, I always assumed the worst of sevcos fans could'nt read or write but wow there are some morons on there. In fairness the tic fans commenting there are largely idiots but some of the huns are unreal.
