He is protecting his position, no doubt. But I don't think he is quite the puppet master everybody seems to think. He looks like a liar and has made his supporters look even more foolish, which of course makes them angry at him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they run out at Ibrox forget the usual songs we play. Pink Floyd another brick in the wall would be fucking class.

Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 This looks more, and more, like Lawwell just trying to placate certain elements within their support now. There is NO REAL SUPPORT for this to be dragged up again, out with the piggery. They're only going to piss everyone else off by continuing with this crap. The rest of the football world is starting to notice, about them, the things we already know. ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanjo 26,295 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hibs know better after spending three years in the lower leagues. Dundee Utd are learning that now too. Make no mistake.... they would have tried if thos was 2012. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or else sweep sweep sweep all over again, dignified silence put us where we are ffs All this Rah-Rah stuff is great at the right time. Liewell's campaign is dying on its feet so why would we breathe life into it. You know the scum love to deflect. At the moment he is self-destructing nicely. Why would we comment on the child abuse enquiry at the moment - it would only be seen as speculation - again they would deflect? Better to wait for the inevitable enquiry results and blow them away with irrefutable facts. There isn't a carpet big enough to sweep this under. They may not get as big sanctions as they should but what they do get will be significant. We can wait and enjoy schadenfreude ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is taking on , arguably the biggest footballing authority in Scotland by backing one club's fight against them , and not the 42 that he claimed to represent . At the next spfl meeting , every other club should be asking him why he thought he could speak on their behalf without any consultation , and then draw up a vote of no confidence on him .

Sing that anytime, Pink Floyd , As the song says , We don't need no education from that lot, Then hey celtic leave them kids alone, With the biggest fuck off banners demanding the SFA take action against the club and old board members are charge by the law also as covering up child abuse is a criminal offence. Ffs sing the Billy's boys, straight to jail, cover up child abuse that's okay is the message the SFA are sending out at the moment. If Regan does not do his job then get rid of him and tell the press conference why, We do not accept child abuse in our game, no,point scoring as that's an insult to all the victims also, if it was us? I would expect a demonstration demanding my club put all the cards on the table regardless of punishment and all those and I mean all those involved charged , ex directors the lot.

William McBeath 2,154 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Good to see some common decency by some of these clubs. Stevie Wonder can see our club has been royally fucked over by Scottish football and the media. Anymore punishment would just have exposed the hatred that has driven all this even more. What was inflicted upon Rangers was so shameful that I'm not surprised many want to leave it behind and not be reminded by what they took part in. If anything it will anger me more in the years to come that we never got an inquiry into the attempted bullying and social witch hunt that was unleashed upon us for using common tax saving schemes and being bought by a fraudster. The interesting thing here is what GMCF referred to above. Neil Doncaster looks to have outed himself as a representative of celtic here by being dishonest when saying all clubs were behind his call for another inquiry. He's got to go for this if there is to be any chance of fairness in Scottish football. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a hibs fans obviously, but they have been strong putting out this statement. The are risking a boycott from an element of their own fans and also the manky mobs fans. They could have sat quiet on the sidelines and wouldnt have made themselves a potential target. Hopefully all clubs will want to distance themselves from celtic, particularly if there is a review of some of the stuff that went on with Torbett etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Kool Blue 139 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 They already got duped once by celtic voting us down to the bottom tier, which must've destroyed the finances of most these clubs. It also further increased the gap between themselves and celtic, when they all probably thought it would reduce it. At least now it looks as though they ain't going to take the bait for a second time, by bringing in some sort of BS sanctions that would inevitably destroy Scottish football, thus allowing the manky mob to engineer a move away.

The club's directors will see that but their fans don't. I had a quick wee look on hibs net and a majority of their fans are raging. They seem to think we have got off Scott free. See for fans of other clubs looking in: For starters we did not cheat. EBTs were legal (as far as I know they still are). We could afford the players we had (we have 50000 fans filling Ibrox week in and out as well as investors). We were punished for being badly ran by a conman (which the SFA sanctioned as fit and proper) - We were heavily fined, SFA kept our prize money as well as money received for players, we were sent to the fourth tier of Scottish football where our games were televised and we got none of the TV money (I think the bulk of it ironically went to the SPL). We were handed an illegal transfer embargo and most of our players walked away for free (not that we would have got the money anyway). We had to work our way back up through the leagues (giving the smaller teams much needed revenue I must add). Would many other clubs have survived that? I doubt it. Most clubs (barring the tims) don't have a fan base big enough to finance their clubs when there is no money coming in from other resources other than just the fans. To say we weren't punished is ridiculous. Fans of other clubs should take a good long look at themselves. Whilst we were away only one team benefited and one team only. They lost revenue from Rangers fans coming to their shiteholes twice a season and looking at the state of the finances for most of the clubs they suffered as a result of us not being there.
