Title stripping was the number one goal for the nonce and they have failed. Remember looking at pish and bovril as far back as late 2011 and they were already planning to steal titles as far back as then. Personally I think it's time for Rangers to move on and look to the future now. We can't move on and have a bright future, if we don't make a signal of our intent that we are watching these fuckers closely because incase you haven't noticed yet it will be something else next month. They are relentless. This dignified pish does not work. We need to take preventitive action and make them think twice about doing anything unfair to us in the future. Not releasing a strongly-worded statement keeps the target on our back for next time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if there's a line of thought going back to how we were fraudulantly taken over and that crook Whyte withheld tax and sunk us, why would we be proactive in backing measures so it never happened again, given the way the people we would now be trying to protect have treated us? Either way it looks ridiculous. But hey, what do I know - the bridge building is in full force. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 However the SPFL chose to word it the title stripping nonsense is 100% over. Liewell failed.

HG5 10,946 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Another statement which appears to fly in the face of declarations by the SPFL's other 'big hitters' (don't blame me - lifted the phrase from elsewhere!). We have to call out who's pulling the strings behind all this. (I know we know, but the wider world just sees it as coming from a governing body.)

My only concern about the statement Cushy is that while they did say what you have posted, for our board to 'back it' I would have thought the statement should have said that it was to help in the future but it would have nothing to do with the Rangers situation in the past. Backing the statement it as it is at the moment would not be the right thing to do IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle 53,253 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Maybe if they hadn't misrepresented the original spfl purpose statement (by trying to direct it towards a Rangers investigation instead of keeping it general) it would have gone ahead. They tried to twist it, got caught, now greeting like wee bitches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its hilarious I don't disagree with that but they are still using us (and the SFA) to remove heat from themselves when it comes to celtic FC and fans of the clubs who still have a bloodlust. Us as the subject matter and the SFA as the ones who won't sanction the review. We have no place on an SPFL board or working alongside the high rankers on it. I said my piece on it last week as to why Robertson should step away from it and tell the world why and withdraw all co-operation with that corrupt organisation as legally and practically possible. Rangers need more than ever to release a statement saying the SPFL are STILL speaking on behalf of one or two people and get it as far and wide as possible or continue to have the target on our backs. This is the chance for it to be put to bed but ONLY if we play it right too Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince George 600 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 1 hour ago, DennyBlueNose said: Only they would still be able to see themselves as the victims, demoted to bottom tier, player & tv payments withheld, lost over £30 million worth of assets, passed from one unscrupulous owner to another. This last 5-6 years has cost us anywhere from £50-100 million and you still have these fucking cretins crying foul like we've been part of some conspiracy. Fuckwits the lot of them. The only people that were underhand were our governing bodies by withholding our league placement money, players money from representing their country and imposing an illegal transfer inbargo. All this and being blackmailed into accepting the 5 way agreement or they would not issue licience to play. I tell the scum this and say they can keep their tainted titles as by corruption is the only way they can do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To say nothing is fucking criminal. As I wrote above issuing threats only plays into Liewells hands. Rangers then become the bad guys who want to cause trouble. Our board might not have been shouting from the rooftops about this but they have been doing work behind the scenes that's why even clubs like Aberdeen and Hibs are even against any more punishments. We've had 6 years of EBTs and title stripping debates now and Rangers have to draw a line under it and move on or else we'll still be hearing about it in another 10 years. Nothing we can say will hurt them any more than the fact they have failed to steal our titles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
montana100 335 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 This statement is a 'blame the SFA'. A total failure to address it head on, a failure to take responsibility and a failure to lead. F them all. ?????   Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
don logan 8,023 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Suits the SPFL to blame the SFA in this climb down. The SFA stated two weeks ago that only one member club wanted a review and no one has refuted this. So the question the SPFL should be asked is who was behind their ultimately futile review attempt?
