    So for every £5 sports direct spend, they won't be able to spend £10? Shame.

    For 4 years, from about 2003, when Oldco were in their pomp, Scotland's rating was much lower than 52. I think we reached 86 at one point. Even in the months before Rangers' liquidation we were rated as 72. There's absolutely no correlation between the demise of Sevco & the Scotland team's ranking. Like others I'm genuinely intrigued as to why you keep beating this empty drum!
    My thoughts entirely. When the duopoly ratcheted up their spending to which neither could afford (Advocaat/O'Neill) on a sustainable level the national team had qualified for zero tournaments.

    Think some people have a romantic view of Scottish football that never existed in the last twenty five years.

    How does that square with what was said yesterday?

    Have they physically paid it or not? If they have, are they now trying to gather the funds to fill in that hole?
    Def not paid it. Mislead the court yesterday it appears.

    EDIT: Did Ozy not keep us up to date? (joke)

    Counsel for Sports Direct says RFC are still £500k short of funds to repay loan.

    FFS.

    So, does that mean that there is a potential new case. Perjury?

    To be fair to JJ, he did raise that possibility yesterday.

    There was talk yesterday about how weak and seemingly unprepared SD were for this court case.

    I've been thinking maybe Ashley had second thoughts about getting King banged up.

    That would have given the SFA an easy out to revoke his Fit and Proper status and kill the judicial review of the SFA 's process.

    If that's his plan , its worth the minor setback yesterday.

    No comment from the Judge about the apparent lie that was told yesterday?

    Or might that be the subject of a different case?

    Judge appears not to have picked up on it, so they have probably got away with it. Strange thing is they did not have to say it yesterday. It wasn't relevant.

    Something has to change before people move on. What do you suggest?

    Where to start...

    • A new strategy for the Scottish game developed in conjunction with all staekholders with agreed accountabilities, responsibilities and KPIs to drive action and measure success
    • A new and inclusive mode of governance with clearly defined remit including finance
    • A re-assessment of the use of technology across every aspect of the game
    • Proper and transparent reporting of KPI performance
    • Collaborative approach to development of young professionals that benefits all concerned
    • Scheduling decisions taken with inputs from the fanbase
    • Fundamental re-assessment of the match-day experience informed by a far more robust understand of the outcomes that people are seeking to achieve through their engagement with clubs
    • Fundamental re-assessment of the role and responsibilities of clubs within their local communities

    King said live on TV after the aim that they had raised the money in 1 hour and that it was already in the bank. He then told a court that it had already been paid.
    Two weeks later and it has still not been raised.
    Alarm bells should be ringing louder than ever among the Sevconians.

    You just copied Neil Doncaster's job description didn't you?

    And you can see how well he's doing.

    I would agree that it isn't.

    However, a lie was told in Court. Apparently.

    Bottom line, though.... it ain't been paid. MA still has the ball, and RIFC's balls, in his hands.

    The current incumbent at Hampden have resisted those suggestions time and again. The only way all the above can happen is if we sweep them from power.
