From Damien VB

Ever wondered why Stewart Regan managed to come from a cricketing background to being head of Scottish football?

Apparently in a phone call he was ‘invited’ to apply for the position. Now who phone Mr Regan at this time is unknown, but most certainly do have a connection to Celtic FC.

Now the selection process included Eric Riley (Celtic FC director) as well Paul Nolan (Nolan Partners) at the behest of George Peat.

Well, could it be it was suggested to him by Kevin Reid, his friend and son of the then current Celtic chairman Dr John Reid?

Could it have been Peter Lawell himself, having worked with Stewart Regan together at Coors/Carling?

Now you would maybe think there is some paranoia going on here, but let’s look at some issues concerning Regan:

Neil The Bigot’s punishments, where the rulebooks state he should have had upto 18 matches banned from the touchline, he gets a slap on the wrist.

He forces one of our top referees to resign over a ‘joke’ email concerning The Pope.

He ridicules the rememberance of our fallen soldiers by comparing them to ‘toast’.

He favourites tweets whereby a Rangers player should be hung.

He also warned Scottish football players that they may be under threat if they played for Team GB.

Now those are just some general accusations. But we have to look at his affects on Rangers FC. Since it has been known that Rangers have been in difficulty it should have been the remit of the SFA to aid and assist a member club. There has been not one positive action towards Rangers from the SFA since this whole debacle started. No financial, moral or sporting aid whatsoever. Wasn’t financial aid offered to Dundee, Livingston and Motherwell?

It has been claimed by James Traynor and Keith Jackson that Regan knew of Whyte’s non-payment of PAYE/NI over a year ago, yet he sat on it. Why did he do this?

This claim is alledgedly backed up by emails between Regan and Lawwell in which this non-payment was discussed, however this has still to be proved.

Now as a club in trouble, yes we were expected to face punishment. But the SFA saw fit to launch a tribunal and find us guilty of bringing the game into disrepute. This kangaroo court fined Rangers £160000 and put in place a 12 month transfer embargo. Pretty harsh when you consider not only was the punishment illegal, it hadn’t been used against any other team that found itself in the same position as Rangers. It is also strange that considering Regan found Whyte as ‘not fit and proper’ in Ocotober 2011, why did he wait until Rangers were in administration before taking the actions he did?

Rangers took this decision to court where it was indeed found to be illegal and the judge in question stated that the tribunal look at the situation again.

This case has yet to be heard having been adhourned for reasons unknown.

Now moving on and after a fiasco of voting here there and everywhere Rangers find themselves as members of The Scottish Football League and have been ‘invited’ to play in the Third Division.

You’d think that would be an end to it but no. Regan will not transfer Rangers license to ‘newco’ unless they accept the punishments stated above as well as paying off ALL footballing debts. Now, those punishments are STILL illegal and as far as I am aware Rangers paying off debts from the oldco could lead to more legal problems in terms of other creditors laying claim.

Emails were leaked stating certain punishments Rangers would receive if the SFL were to vote them into the First Division. Regan has so far survived this leaked email, even though it was produced ‘before’ Rangers were looking at liquidation.

Why has this happened? Why weren’t Rangers just demoted straight to the Third Division like what happened when Livingston were liquidated. By the book and as per precadent. Quite simply, there was a bloodlust. Regan

employed by supporters of Celtic FC for the benefit of Celtic FC couldn’t be seen to just allow Rangers to go away and return back fighting. He more or less at his masters calling had to put the final nail in Rangers coffin.

To add insult to injury, a draft report now states that one condition of Rangers entering the second tier of Scottish football was to relinquish 6 league titles and 4 Scottish cups. Again being found guilty without trial for the use of ‘dual-contracts’.

One also has to consider the law firm being used to investigate the dual-contracts/EBT situation at Rangers. Harper MacLeod? Oh wait, aren’t they Celtic’s lawyers? Doesn’t seem very impartial does it. But then again, we’ve

seen the links above between Regan, the SFA and Celtic so why wouldn’t Celtic’s lawyers be in the mix their somewhere.

Now taking a step back, let’s look at what Rangers have actually done wrong.

Currently the situation is clear that Rangers are only guilty of non-payment of PAYE/NI since the Craig Whyte tenure began. And bear in mind, Regan was informed and knew about this at the time, he also knew Whyte was not fit and proper 5 months before the club entered administration. The question still remains, as he had a duty of care to his member clubs, why did he allow this to continue? Was he influenced by anyone?

At every turn Catholic-raised Stewart Regan has looked to put roadblocks up in front of Rangers FC. I mention his religion because I fear that not only is his hatred inspired by those who are driving the agenda, I also think his hatred is driven by bigotry. His every action can’t be those of incompetence although from the outside looking in that is the only way you could be able to explain it, his every action is driven by hatred and we can see it.

Just a shame that the media in Scotland are too scared to report it.

i agree it'd be worth putting this out to the news desks of as many UK papers as possible although I have to suggest the direct reference to Regan's upbringing should be removed - the press won't want to print that. The Newsletter in Belfast and/or Belfast Telegraph might take it. The Newsletter is traditionally sympathetic to the majority community here and the Telegraph is part of the Independent group so it might get some national traction if picked up there.

Thanks

As for the religion bit, this is my personal view and if people wish to share this omitting that then they are free to do so. If it's deemed unsuitable for RM too I have no objection to it being removed from the OP.

I think Regan is working to an agenda, I also think he's a bigot. I won't be swayed on that.

Religion plays a major part in the lives of a vast number of Rangers and Celtic fans.

Fact. Its history.

It is highly likely that activities against us have some religious motivation.

For people to tell us that religion shouldnt be part of football or that there is no religious conspiracies...tough. It is up here and it happens...Go watch another team if you don't like it.

I am a protestant Rangers supporter and proud of it.

The thing is though....they have been aware of this for 2 years now and havent ran the story...ask ourselves why!

[loyalfollower 1,543]

When you see all these facts it makes me sick that they can get away with it. I mean after all traynor and co have speculated over our own club speculation. Why cant these dogs start harping on about facts the real fact that is theres a massive conflict of interest with wanker regan and the chinese impersonator previous employment?

[GeneralCartmanLee 313]

Why mention he was raised a catholic...

[damien1 29]

Why mention he was raised a catholic...

Because I think he's a bigot.

[mabawsa 888]

good valid points and questions to raise.

you missed -

1. first week in the CEO job he took the unprecedented step to goto CP to have 'tea' with P.Liewell and start off on the right foot. His first task as SFA CEO was to go calling at CFC? Why?

2. Mysteriously (right) , after that meeting and 2 weeks after Aberdeen v Rangers match at Pittodire . Rangers goalie Allan McGregor is hauled up on a charge. Someone made a complaint or highlighted it to SFA. Again unprecedented and complainer has never been disclosed. Was someone trying to weaken the Rangers team by having a key player banned?

3.Vincent Lunny becomes new Compliance Officer - in between doing match reports on Celtic ladies matches in Scotzine fanzine.

4. Regan showed serious contempt for ordinary Rangers fans who tried to engage him on his twitter account. He seemingly blocked most Rangers fans for mild and non-inflammmatory questioning. Why?

I would love to know how many times he visited Ibrox in his CEO of SFA capacity. My guess is one less than Alex Mosson and that takes some beating !

The guy is PL's bitch and the Scots Mhedia are justtoo petrified to call him on it.

[GeneralCartmanLee 313]

Because I think he's a bigot.

you think he dislikes protestants...why ?

To be honest you make yourself out as the bigot by mentioning it.

Reagan has been a poor appointment who, if scottish football wasn't run like a bowling club, would have been gone for his handling of the last month. Regan was head hunted by a recruitment firm, not sure why you believe it's a startling revelation....happens every day of the week.
