mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I see Dundee United have withdrawn their appeal now that they have gotten through their game against us.McNamara will now be able to be on the touchline for the final.

Dietspam 733 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yep, shitty rule. Clearly taking advantage of the system, but we would do the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchibaldLeitch 380 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Our defence would have shipped those goals no matter who was in their dugout.Mcnamara's presence didn't influence daly, moshni and shiels sitters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly showed they were worried about us tho. Defo need something done so things like this can't be done in future. Him in the dugout held them together tbh.

BraveheartGordon 77 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 People have abused the rule...but not to this extent, the audacity of withdrawing the appeal after the game is unheard of.Expect nothing less of that classless club though.

elephants stoned 2,994 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Its the stupid rules that allow this nonsense that need sorted.

Of course if it was a Rangers manager that had done this all hell would break loose but that's par for the course.Exactly. If it had been us the corrupt cunts would have convened a hearing 5 mins after we lodged the appeal and thrown it out there and then. As usual though, we are treated differently to everyone else. What's to be expected when you're the most successful team in the country and the rest are jealous I suppose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears 791 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 So the rules need to be changed - make an appeal, it cannot be withdrawn.Sporting integrity indeed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bheast Skelper 411 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 We wouldn't do the same - far too dignified for all that pishIirc we tried to once. But they heard the appeal late Friday afternoon and found us guilty anyway.I forget what the charge was.Imagine if they had done the same to the dundee scum.

SirAlistairofMcCoist 91 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Did we not do something similar back in the 2011/12 season with McCulloch? Think he clearly elbowed a St. Mirren player and we stuck an appeal in (for a clear red card) so he was eligible to play the OF game? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although we didn't withdraw our appeal so not as bad as ScumdeeRangers red card appeal means Lee McCulloch can face CelticRangers will have midfielder Lee McCulloch available to face Celtic on Wednesday after the club appealed his red card at St Mirren on Saturday.The experienced McCulloch was dismissed for aiming an elbow at Graham Carey in Rangers' 2-1 defeat in Paisley.

TheKingObv 10,600 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Didn't we try and appeal a Miller ban after the 7-1 Dutd game and before the tims at the weekend?Pretty sure it was rejected within like 15 minutes of us putting it in meaning he couldn't play.

OlegKuznetsov 10,816 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 It's just another admission that, even in the third tier, they still fear us.As ever, it's all about the Rangers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
