Doncaster in Trouble

[Blue Nosed Babe 20,680]

Apparently the SPFL Board made it clear that any reviews regarding finance were NOT to include Rangers and the events of 2012. 

From letters he published as we know mentions us. The SPFL board have accused Doncaster of misrepresenting the position to the SFA and faces a grilling by the SPFL board.

As an aside our board have written about how this is unfolding.

This would justify our silence on this matter without a doubt he has to go

[SeparateEntityMyArse 53,725]

I have no issues him in the firing line for this. He acted on the bequest of one member, against another, apparently contrary to set spfl guidelines.

But the bheast has arguably played a blinder here if Doncaster had served his purpose and his removal was their end goal. 

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. If he was to be bulleted then his successor could well be even more dangerous to us.

Sack the bastard, nothing less will suffice

 

Get David Longmuir back

[Coplandbear11 1,087]

Imagine a world where we had football governing bodies who acted professionally, impartially and in the best interested of all member clubs.... our club just has a big target on its back

If only mate. These cunts will forever try to grind us down but we will always be here for the fight.

Yup, this could've been the bheasts plan all along 

[Hoss 267]

He'll get a healthy pay off, and Lawwell will get a new lackie.

[GersInCanada 7,775]

Doncaster sends a very misleading letter to the SFA then a few days later Liewell also writes saying his position has the backing of all SPFL clubs.

All came unstuck - they pushed their luck too far and both ought to go from any posts they hold.

[cushynumber 25,178]

If your a Rangers fan the last few years has been an eye opening experience and once your eyes are opened agendas become clear. Doncaster has pinned his colours to the mast here - as so many have done against us over the last few years. His position is now untenable imho.

I dont agree with that. Doncaster done what cellic wanted. Why would they then remove him?

[K.A.I 36,183]

Only in Scottish football can this shit happen.

People still justifying the non-statement, if anything this means we need to make one MORE.

I think it's more see how this pans out first

I agree.  They have just fucked it up really.  Hibs statement a few days after the letter conversation was published, took any credibility away from the 'requests' that there was left.  Now the SPFL are having a pop at their spokesman.  Farce if correct.

[mitre_mouldmaster 21,509]

It is probably just me thinking this, and I expect to get pelters for saying it but here goes......

Does it feel to anyone else like the press coverage in general is starting to swing back a little bit in the way of neutrality.

When this latest assault by celtic on the review kicked off, I was expecting the press to go into full 'Sporting Integrity' mode. Almost instantly though, things took a little bit of a turn against celtic though and now Doncaster. Reports of 'no appetite' and reporters suggesting it is 'time to move on'. We even have defensive columns from the likes of DJ with (as yet) no counter piece from the likes of Sutton or others.

Dont get me wrong, the coverage they get when a bam runs onto the pitch and attempts to assault a PSG player was simply glowing in comparison to when our supporters 'threw missiles' onto the pitch against Progres in the form of deadly paper planes.

 Hopefully the start of the power transition back to us, but no doubt im being overly optimistic.

Only question I have is that they encouraged / forced him into the firing line. Apparently now it seems against spfl policy.

It could be argued he's expendable to them. It works in their favour great. It doesn't then Doncaster catches shit including potentially his job.

If they have thought this way, which isn't out with the capabilities of Liewell, then they'll sure as hell have given thought to his successor.

Paranoia? Maybe

Should be sacked for that haircut alone.

The silence from us thus far, is correct IMO, as we could have made a cunt of it without all the facts/inside info.  Having said that, as more information is coming to hand, we should now be building a response in preparation for putting everyone back in their place.

Hope so. it would explain the delay but wouldn't justify no statement IMO.

I think they have made a huge mistake, rather than it being a big cunning plan

I don't think so.  But, the press are leaches and will often take the side that has the upper hand in scenarios, so maybe get a bit of support from them if this does blow up in celtic/SPFLs faces as a total shambles.

Dont get me wrong, I think it is still massively in their favour. Its just that this story has not played out in the papers and media as I would have expected.

Usually I would expect the fuckers to get treated like the custodians of truth and virtue, where as they really are coming across as desperate, petty bullies.

I agree. They've shown themselves up to be amateurish nobodies who have no place in a position of any sort of authority. 

I think they (but especially celtic/Lawwell) were taking for granted that the knifes were still out for Rangers and thought everyone would be onboard after they pressed ahead without their consent. 

I don't forgive or forget, but the same teams that treated us like shite first time round have done the decent thing this time round.
