Surely they wouldn't be so stupid to not report something that is in the public domain for everyone to see?
They are good at wriggling out of responsibility thats for sure, the punishment we received was partly because we were a basket case club at the time.
The beggars, with their placemen in the press/positions of power, seem better structured to deal with any shite coming their way.
I hope to fuck i am wrong though.

The offence is not reporting it, would the court case of 1997 not have been the perfect time. Atleast  one of their paedos escaped justice because of their silence.

This from sfa's rule book is better. Acknowledging a statutory duty, none the less!
"Section 5 of the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 creates a statutory duty to report any suspicions of child abuse i.e. a duty to do what is reasonable in all the circumstances to safeguard the child's health, development and welfare. Failure to report concerns, turning a blind eye or failing to protect a child may result in legal action."

theres a number of bits there that Lawell has done

And there you have it, remember the Legia Warsaw carry on? Rules are rules they claimed.
So they should be charged and dealt with for breaching this rule, rules are rules after all.
Will it happen? Doubtful.

Celtic fans spewing at Hibs for not backing another review because "they have forgotten their roots" shows clearly this has nothing to do with the integrity of the game.  It was and is a Rangers bashing exercise, instigated and driven by Celtic and their fans.

I'd expect the board to demand why they have a compliance officer investigating Rangers on a Uefa licence when Uefa the govern body responsible for issuing said licence have already been clear on the matter. Its not their jurisdiction to investigate.
"The onus to investigate falls on UEFA's Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) and they hold the power to impose disciplinary measures if a club fails to fulfil the monitoring requirements.
Any investigation by the CFCB which leads to a guilty verdict has a limited scope of sanctions available to it, ranging from a warning to a maximum fine of €100,000. Clubs can also reach a settlement agreement with the CFCB."

So if I'm reading that right:
-There is no change in position by the sfa
-Craig White matters ARE under investigation by Compliance Officer
-Senior Council (not ours) are involved in providing a basis for the Compliance Officer to work from.
 
If ever we need to be guarded and come out on the front foot it's now.
This is what the RFFF is there for. Defend our club, attack those who want us dead.

To save the compliance officer investigating tlrb for his behaviour at ibrox last month.something that's been swept under the carpet 

The sfa statement states that they have a compliance officer investigating the uefa license when the onus to investigate any discrepancies falls on the uefa  club financial control body.  Why is sfa investigating this when the govern body responsible for doing so has drawn a line under it.
