The Dude 20,026 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 http://sport.stv.tv/football/clubs/rangers/215764-rangers-oldco-fined-250000-by-spl-commission-but-club-retains-titles/Rangers have been fined around £250,000 by the Scottish Premier League after being found guilty of failing to correctly register players.An independent commission, chaired by Lord Nimmo Smith, has ruled the club breached SPL rules by failing to disclose to the league all payments made to players for playing activities, ruling them ineligible.The fine is payable by the oldco, and not Charles Green's new company, which purchased the club's assets in July 2012.The club faced being stripped of up to five league titles by the commission but will remain as SPL title winners in 2002/03, 2004/05, 2008/09, 2009/10 and 2010/11.The commission had the power to impose any of 18 available sanctions, including the annulment of results involving ineligible players and/or withdrawing titles.SPL sanction G6.1.3 states: “Upon determining that a breach of or failure to fulfil the Rules has been established, the Board or, as the case may be, a Commission may…impose a fine.”The guilty verdict is in relation to the club’s use of Employee Benefit Trusts to reward players. Payments made through the scheme were not declared in their contracts, with Rangers arguing they did not require to be as per SPL rules.The commission has ruled it was necessary for Rangers to declare the payments and, as such, has declared players improperly registered were ineligible to participate in league matches.Rangers have the right to appeal the Commission’s decision through the Scottish Football Association.If the club register an appeal at Hampden, the governing body would convene an Appellate Tribunal under the terms of their Judicial Panel Protocol.The Appellate Tribunal would consider all evidence submitted but could also ask the interested parties to appear in person to answer questions. No timescale for a decision is specified in the Scottish FA rules. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
