broxi321 55 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Neil Lennon has reiterated his call for Rangers to be stripped of cups and titles if found guilty of breaking strict registration rules.The Celtic boss said he would consider it 'a moral victory' - and, although he wouldn’t want the medals he would have lost out on retrospectively, he claimed the recognition would be ‘enough’.The SPL have set up a commission which will shortly investigate and, if necessary, punish the alleged wrongful registration of players who were signed to the Ibrox club between 2001 and 2009.Both SFA and SPL rules clearly state that all remuneration a player receives for playing must be logged with them.Rangers are said to have excluded payments made into Employee Benefit Trusts (EBTs) during that period from contracts — the basis for the so-called big tax case, the outcome of which has yet to be known.If found guilty, the Ibrox club could be stripped of the leagues they won in 2003, 2005, 2009, 2010 and 2011 as well as their Scottish Cup triumphs of 2002, 2003, 2008 and 2009.The record books could change to show Celtic, who finished second, were rightful champions while the Parkhead side, Dundee, Queen of the South and Falkirk, who lost the finals, could be awarded the cup wins.In the event of Rangers being found guilty, Lennon believes the rewriting of the history books will be the only appropriate thing to do.‘I will see what the commission finds and, if they are found to have broken the rules, then they should be stripped of their titles,’ he said.‘It will not change what has gone on in the past but I suppose there will be a sort of moral victory in that respect.‘It is not going to change my life now, by any stretch of the imagination, but it would be good to be changed for historical reference.‘I can’t get that title or feeling back and it won’t make a huge dent on my life from here on in. It would be a lot better on my CV, though. I wouldn’t want the medals, just the recognition. That would be enough.’Asked if the team who finished second or who lost the final should be retrospectively declared the winners as opposed to the tournament being declared null and void, Lennon replied: ‘Yes. At that time, though, it might have cost players contracts, bonuses, managers their jobs and might have relegated teams.‘There are so many ripple effects to it. Again, you go back to the integrity of the game, was it there? If not, then it should be investigated. That is all we ask for. We are in the game for the glory and then the money comes with it.‘The more successful you are, the more money you get but when you are a kid growing up all you want to do is to play football for a big club and to win things. That never changes.’Its seems to me that we have a new SFA cheif executive and if this is not bringing the game is disrepute we live in a sad country and corrupt SFA.

Gandalf the Blue 1,384 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Just heard this on SSN. The actual sky sports guy had to keep reminding the tosser reading the back pages that these were just allegations and nothing is proven. And quoting popcorn teeth as if hes an authority on the matter. If I want advice on being an unwashed manky ned bastard, then your my go to guy neil. I just dread to think people outside Scotland taking this as fact.

Ger for life 199 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 And on the subjecft of MNarseille, did we get the chance to play AC MIlan in a re-arranged final? No.On the subject of integrity, should they be stripped of all honours won during the sexual abuse period of young players which Big Jock knew all about? Yes.People in glass houses etc.Just saying!

Glowingmonkeyhead 62 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Total FudNo class about him or his teams fans and chairman. You would never see Ally or any Rangers men go to the press with that sort of bullshit - who the fuck wants tainted titles from 8 years ago?Rangers players won fair and square on the park so get it p you ya we wank that your bottle crashed at Moterwell! Or was it EBT's that scored Scott McDonalds goals. Im sure Selick even had a mega star in Bellamy playing for them then - who was paying his £60k a week?

Gaz92 966 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Compare this reaction to Steve Tosh's in the other thread. Tosh realises it's what happens on the park that counts, but Lennon is simply looking for the personal gain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian 4,281 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Win by any means is still their mantra and they'll press for anything to narrow that massive gap between us and them.I expect this will build to a crescendo just like the SPL vote did.It started with Hinkel, then Tom Boyd yesterday, Lemon today. They will put up a different punter spouting their view every day to drip-drip this into the various clubs fans.Pretty soon it'll just be accepted this is what has to happen.I've seen this coming for a while because we have just sat back and took every one of their slaps and turned the other cheek. The Rangers management have to be a bit more rigid and stand up to these fuds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
