He's suggesting that Regan was in on the meeting. Not sure how he would know, but it does explain why some people are suggesting the the F&P status was under discussion.

Re this F&P status - when last week, King was questioned outside Hampden, his explanation (guaranteed 100% lie !) was " It was just a courtesy meeting as I haven't met these guys". So does this mean he was passed as 'Fit & Proper' yet didn't even have to go through an interview with them ?. Because if that's true, you'd think that having a record like his, at the very least, a face-to-face meeting would've been top of the list so they could at least have looked him in the eye and see how he reacted to questions - or am I just being stupid by looking at things as if logic, common-sense, honesty and decency are everyday happenings where the Hun and the GFA are concerned ??

No, I wondered the same thing myself....

I thought they were in default as soon as they sacked Llambias and Leach.
I understood that one of the conditions of the loan was that he had two Directors on the Board?

Oh yes, so it was.

Because they didn't repay it when it was meant to be paid, IIRC.

Like I say, it may suit MA to keep it that way. Penalty clauses, holding on to the IP, holding on to the securities, keeping the 7-year notice period untouched. All for the sake of £5m, which ( I think) he's getting interest on as well.

There's no point in taking RFC to Court if he's happy to keep things as they are.

My recollection was there was no interest but the higher percentage of the merchandise profit. (which in effect was interest but by another name)

That allowed the old board to say there was no interest on the loan. Not to say there wont be a Wonga rate of interest after default though.

He was meeting the SPFL last week.

It was the SFA who passed him as F&P.

Doesn't mean the two bodies aren't communicating. I would expect them to be.

The point was that he hadn't met the SPFL before last week. The question was asked why that was the case when he'd been passed as F&P.

I think we know from 2012 and the death of RFC / birth of Sevco that the SFA and the SPL were in cahoots on the issue.

[Treadstone]

I bet Regan and Doncaster discuss them every time they meet on the sixth floor.

In the cludgie.
With the taps on.
And the hand-dryers blasting.

Following his performance at the AGM, where he was as inspiring as a regional salesman discussing his company car, I think Warburton's star might have risen as far as it ever will.

He'd be mad to turn down a fat pay packet and move back South with Fulham if gets offered it. He's proved he'll do whatever a chairman tells him, which Khan will like.

When he dies they will never get the coffin lid down to bury him as his foot will be wedged into it.

I can't see this being right. He is reported as being fourth choice manager when he should never be higher than 33rd.

I hope he rejects them as it's his coupon I want to see spluttering after we win the league.

Telegraph is wrong though as The Petrofeck won't be the first trophy for The Rangers since 2012, didn't they win their first trophy when they won the Third division in 2013? A great achievement for a new team's first season in league football...

Well let's hope it doesn't go away and the truth comes out ,Looks like people at the top getting nervous ,and in the interests of Sporting Integrity it's about time we heard the truth and if that involves the SFA acting against Sevco bring it on ,as am getting tired of thier continued posturing about getting back to being the biggest and best club ,back in Europe etc etc and then bleating they aren't on enough committees to wield thier influence ,Seems they are managing to do that fine without being on committees .

Wonder when the penny will eventually drop that 'getting back' to a position that was only made possible in the 1st place by an endless supply of dodgy-money, just ISN'T going to happen - especially when there's not even dodgy-money about, just a dodgy chairman/board !!

And dodgy referees giving dodgy decisions and dodgy officials at SFA/SPFL turning a blind eye and dodgy agents tapping up players on their behalf. It might not be as difficult as you think.

There's no chance of Warburton leaving Sevco for Fulham. Better with the circus you know.

I agree and would rather they did not get any cash. They are not as good a side as us. They have very little depth to their squad. We can win this league.

Positive thinking on a dreary Monday morning..... I like it

[greenginger]

Even if Warby does not leave, it would be good to get a bit of uncertainty, controversy , anger amongst the hoards.

What's the record, Sun etc got to say ? now't I would guess.

[Glesgahibby]

Any word of the herald exclusive regarding the big tax case appeal?

I agree but if it was just down to footballing ability/quality/mind-set etc then yes, we could, should and can win this league - but it's the Hun and what will be done, to ensure they don't spend another season in the championship, doesn't bear thinking about. We're not just taking on them, we're taking on almost the entire rotten establishment of our game !. Come the end of this season, I can guarantee we'll have never endured such a season of 'honest mistakes', 'strange decisions', 'unfortunate events' and outright, blatant cheating !!.

And NEVER - will sticking it to the Hun be so absolutely, exquisitely and fantastically superb !

Watching a little of their game on Sat I had the same thought. The same team & formation trots out every week. They have very few options to change things & they don't have star players on their bench. If they recruit in Jan I suspect it will be loan signings &/or free agents. I believe we have a far stronger squad, its now down to our mentality & also that of other clubs in the league when playing against Sevco, Raith this weekend is a good example.

[southern hibby]

Hopefully he will have talks and they will break down obviously The Rangers will not stand I. The way of a dream move and he will want to go after Fulham opens the bid at £25,000 and ups it to £49,999 after there 4th or 5th bid, respectfully done by Fulham, obviously.

After talks break down between him and Fulham he is left in Govan and the orcs then give him constant abuse, the board don't give him any spending money ( not that they have any) and sell a few players and he then sequels like a stuffed pig when Hibs romp the league.

If only I did football Carlesberg wouldn't get a look in for dreaming
