cumnockbear 2,446 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 The current SPFL Board is made up of Neil Doncaster (CEO), Ralph Topping (Chairman), Eric Riley (Celtic), Stephen Thompson (Dundee United), Duncan Fraser (Aberdeen), Eric Drysdale (Raith Rovers), Mike Mulraney (Alloa Athletic) and Ken Ferguson (Brechin City). How the fuck are reps from diddy teams like RR, Brechin and Alloa on the board, seriously ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uefa also issued a suspended punishment for fans' behaviour at the Ibrox leg. It will fine Rangers a further 40,000 euros and close Ibrox for one match if fans misbehave in the next three years.its worth noting this though:Rangers chief executive Martin Bain was "astounded" after UEFA added the case to an identical charge over the first leg.Bain disclosed that both charges had been prompted by evidence from the fan-led Football Against Racism in Europe organisation despite no problems being flagged up by UEFA's official delegate.

I'd forgotten about them,are they still active?Bain said in a statement: "In terms of the UEFA case brought against us, we have had serious concerns about the integrity of the evidence compiled by the FARE organisation and that remains the case. We are also of the opinion that FARE has been influenced by people who make it their business to damage our club in any way they can."not heard much other than this latest stuff - assuming its the same bods...The number of racist displays by Russian football fans has doubled in the country which will host the World Cup in 2018, with most cases going unpunished, anti-discrimination campaigners say.Researchers from the Moscow-based SOVA Center and the UEFA-affiliated FARE Network logged 92 incidents of discriminatory displays and chants by Russian fans in and around stadiums in the 2014-15 season, against a total of 83 for the previous two seasons put together.

The most sellick-minded team, I expect.As mentioned by others, the club need to insist this discussion is about all teams and all offensive chants or none at all.

Tontospal 1,116 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 This topic is regularly discussed on here, the board's minority was actually a majority and it is no understatement to say that millions of our fans have sang the songs over the decades.Many points have been made but a major omission has been the lack of a dialogue between the authorities, the club and the matchday support. Not the nodding dog so-called fans reps but the rank and file season and match day ticket supporters who were only too aware of the consequences when singing last Monday.I take it from the Board's statement that they have no problem if those singing are identified by police, remember they are going to help them identify the culprits, and are subsequently banned.Now we know they supported last season's boycott but if all of the singers are identified you are probably talking 30,000 not being allowed to attend matches. It is staggering that they want to build bridges with our enemies and burn them with a large number of our support.It is the Board's duty to liase with the fans, establish the reasons why tens of thousands defy the law of the land and then take the issue forward with the football and other authorities and get the various views and opinions discussed and debated with representation made to the SNP rulers of Scotland.My recollection is more fans were singing last Monday than were not and the only sections not joining in were the two dugouts, the directors box and the away fans.As far as I am aware not one person was physically hurt by the words of any of the songs and the end result was to create the best atmosphere at any match played in Scotland this season.Also to my knowledge none of the nasty singers committed any acts of violence after the match.Perhaps some of our police and politicians should attend matches in other countries where physical violence, including killings, is a regular event. I'm sure these countries would love it if all they had to worry about were supposedly offensive words/lyrics, most of which the offended can't make out and only become offended when informed about them.
