Why the SFA havent breached their rules

So the panel, on their own, decided on the maximum fine allowed then thought that wasn't enough, and came up with a 1 year signing ban, which isn't in the list of punishments but did so secure in the knowledge that the rules allowed them to just make it up, by themselves, with no help or guidance, Curly, Larry and Mo. Of course they did, they're independent erm.. well they're transparent.. hmmm, well one of them was threatened ah..

Nevermind, Regan, the bastion of fairness, transparency and honesty will sort it out :craphead:

If you read that then 'expulsion from the game' is their strongest sanction, as they need your money they could not do that so...

hypocrisy perhaps but the ban is fairly lenient if you consider this, no-one buying us, if anyone is actually buying us, we can't afford big signings anyway. Rangers can only win a cup next season, i am assuming that is why they never kicked us out of that.

What about this hypothetical situation- 2012 Scottish Cup final is between Rangers and Celic.

What do we do?

Do we bycott the final?

The official final tickets went on sale at Tynecastle yesterday and we might have had time to stop buying them if it was at Ibrox.

Or would we have been chucked out the competition?

That's like telling a rape victim ‘look on the brightside love, he could have killed you‘.

An unprecedented punishment needs to be fully explained.

We, or more specifically Murray, have messed up. A punishment is due, everyone accepts it. My reading is that this is not a punishment if you look at it. The fine is paltry compared with some figures. We cannot afford to buy any players anyway so no loss. This, as a punishment, is not really much of a punishment. It is them trying to look like they have done something monumental while keeping Rangers money.

As long as we can sign Sone Aluko, sell Lafferty and keep the best of our squad then we have a year to build a good team with no pressure on McCoist. This beats three years of punishments or being sent down to division 3. The 11 million that Kennedy and TBK bring in can pay the squad's wages and hopefully Ticketus can get tae.

All we need now is for Whyte and various creditors to play the game.

your missing the point mate. it restricts downsizing.

what if the new owner decides the ebst way forward is to shed the big money players to raise funds, pay off debt and reduce the wage bill?

it's very realistic we will lose out the likes of McGregor, McCulloch, Alexander, Naismith, Bocanegra, Whittaker, davis, lafferty, and goian im sure will be off.

where does that leave us under this bullshit embargo? We can't compete with a team of reserves & under 18's, we'll be getting murdered off the likes of kilmarnock and hearts. Like Smith said, we could end up relegated.

This is worse than a points deduction, at least with a points deduction, some players would maybe stay on the smaller contracts provided we picekd up a few free transfers and perhaps a couple of loan players until we get back on our feet.

I think survival is what we are looking at, we will be downsizing as a matter of unavoidable fact.

Would love it if Rangers won the SC next year,go up and collect their medals but leave the 'Cup' sitting on the shelf :cheers:

If we did win it next season I would rather the players take a lap of honour head down the tunnel, get changed and leave.

Leave the cup and medals and more importantly the SFA and the sponsors in the lurch
