ray 105 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 CELTIC'S PLAN TO MAKE RANGERS SURRENDER - ExclusiveCELTIC are demanding Rangers agree to be stripped of their titles before the Scottish Premier League allow the Scottish Football Association to give them a licence to play.That is the bottom line in a complex power play which looks as though it is being orchestrated by Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell, who, it was reported, spent two days in London this week with his SPL counterpart Neil Doncaster.And yet Rangers chief executive Charles Green is claiming he is on the brink of breaking the deadlock to allow the SFA to hand his NewCo membership.But the structure which must be in place for that to happen is extremely complicated and the SFA need to get the go-ahead from the Scottish Premier League, who must agree to release the Oldco’s registration before that SFA licence can be granted.My information is the SPL are refusing to do that unless Rangers surrender to them and agree to give up their right of appeal to the SFA should the SPL decide to strip Rangers of league titles won during the EBT years.Scottish Football Association chief executive Stewart Regan is on record as declaring the SFA could legally play no role in any investigation into the registration of Rangers players with the SPL during the EBT years because it is the SFA which is the court of appeal open to Rangers should the club wish to challenge any SPL sentence.The SPL then launched their probe and amazingly let loose Celtic’s lawyers, Harper Macleod, on Rangers, with SPL chief executive Neil Doncaster handing them the brief dig the dirt on Rangers.I revealed this amazing appointment of Harper Macleod at the time it was made and produced evidence of their close ties with Celtic and with Peter Lawwell, lifted straight from the Harper Mcleod web site, on which Lawwell paid homage to the law firm for the sterling work they have done on Celtic’s behalf.Is it a conicidence that Lawwell testimony to Harper Macleod has now been removed from the Harper Macleod web site?Too late!Now the situation is further complicated because the SFA are not believed to have any appetite for taking any similar stripping-of-trophies action with regard to the Scottish Cups won by Rangers during the same period.It is believed the SPL board members are well aware of this through the link Peter Lawwell has in sharing the SFA boardroom at Hampden with SFA chief executive Stewart Regan and the Parkhead boardroom with Celtic financial director, Eric Riley, who also sits on the Scottish Premier League board.I did warn it was an extremely complex power play.But it is growing more and more apparent it is Celtic who are trying to manipulate matters in order that Rangers give up their right of appeal to the SFA against any decision the SPL may make to strip them of titles.Eyebrows were raised earlier this week when Peter Lawwell was reported to have gone to London with Neil Doncaster for television talks with Sky.Lawwell has no official role within the SPL structure and had no right to be there.But many believe it is Celtic chief executive Lawwell who is behind the recent spate of bile spewing from just about everyone inside Parkhead, or who has ever been associated with Celtic, demanding Rangers be stripped of their titles.The word cheating is repeated over and over and over again by everyone who has, or has had, a connection with Celtic..Yet there is absolutely no evidence of any on-the-field cheating by Rangers, despite the best efforts of the SPL’s legal firm, Harper Macleod, who are of course also Celtic’s lawyers, to find any.If Lawwell has been the shadowy figure, if not writing the scripts, then probably pulling the strings, Celtic manager Neil Lennon has been the main man in the spotlight leading the screeching chorus of bitterness demanding the SPL take titles away from Rangers.And it has even reached the stage that former Celtic captain Tom Boyd, normally someone with little to say for himself, has joined the cacophony of black propaganda.That Boyd blast stunned most reporters – including me - who have known Boyd for over two decades and interviewed him on dozens of occasions, as Boyd has never before provided controversial material.The general view in the press pack is that someone was pulling Tom Boyd’s strings.Others, including midfielder Beram Kayal, plus ex Celtic defender and former German internation defender, Andreas Hinkel, were also singing from the same hymn sheet, in what gives every appearance of being an orchestrated campaign by Celtic to turn up the heat on the SPL.A campaign which appeared to climax when Lawwell stepped forward himself and, as exclusively revealed by Anthony Haggerty in the Daily Record, was closeted with Neil Doncaster for two days.Not that many members of the Scottish Premier League appear to need much convincing to turn on Rangers.The latest addition to the SPL board, Duncan Fraser from Aberdeen, is a man many would be willing to testify has an anti Rangers agenda. While Dundee United’s Stephen Thompson is seen by some as Lawwell’s ally.And Eric Riley owes his £250,000-a-year job as Celtic’s financial director to Lawwell’s patronage. Riley is an extremely well connected mover and shaker, having previously stalked the SFA corridors of power on various of the governing body’s committees before moving to the SPL to make way inside the SFA power structure for his boss Lawwell.All of these forces are maneuvering against Rangers, against anyone else in a position of power within the SPL and also against the Scottish Football Association.What it increasingly looks like is that Celtic want to do as much damage as possible to Rangers during this period of the stricken Ibrox club’s vulnerability.With Peter Lawwell appearing to believe Charles Green will surrender and accept any terms, however unjust and give up any legal right, even if it means the abject surrender of titles, in order to get that SFA licence to play.For without it, Charles Green’s plan to make money out of Rangers is held up even more. And making money out of Rangers is all Charles Green cares about.It looks as though Peter Lawwell and Celtic know that.posted by leggoland @ 07:17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian 4,281 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Some reasonable stuff there. albeit without any proof, but ruined by turning it into yet another rant against Green.If Green (and his consortium) are only in it for a quick buck why are they still there ?Why are others trying to buy Rangers on the cheap ? Looks to me like they are the ones in it for a quick buck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggy 1,308 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 If the SFA/SPL/Celtic were so intent on Rangers' destruction, the SFA would just reject the SFA membership application, end of story. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me like they are the ones in it for a quick buck.I agree the last few lines seemed like a poor excuse to take a swipe at Green for no reason (as yet anyway). However the rest of it makes very worrying reading. As soon as we let these scumbags into positions of power, we were always in trouble. How can you possibly get a fair hearing when the jury is made up of your biggest rivals and enemies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillWard 6 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 This stuff about the SPL holding onto Rangers' registration is pure fantasy. I don't know why people keep posting his pish on here to be honest, although even Traynor has his believers so I suppose anything is possible.

clockwork 85 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Sorry nothing but speculation and baseless accusations.Without evidence of real complicity, such comments are open to legal action.Forget Celtic. They are irrelevant to Rangers.The fact Celtic have the same lawyers as the SFA is frankly irrelevant.It's ludicrous to think the firm would do Celtic's bidding just to keep their account.As for Lawwel's visit to London, could it not just be that the rest of the SPL asked him to represent them?As i said before, we should just forget them and get on with our reconstrution.

No conspiracy, just perfectly understandable business. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzapat 83 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 The way I see it, if they want to continue this talk of stripping titles for EBT's then Celtic will not gain at least one of those trophies as they admitted to the use of an EBT during the 2004-05 season, it would have to go to Hibs as they finished 3rd that season.It's pretty clear that there is an agenda against our club and we will have to fight tooth and nail to keep hold of these titles we won fair a square on the park.

Let us hope that Green stands firm and does not surrender to the scum.Don't believe it for a minute - destroying us would be a disaster for them - they wanted us in the SPL loaded with points deductions to keep the money rolling in- the havn't made one signing since this blew up - and they will pay the price by going out of Europe at the first shout. The "Old Firm " need each other - and so does Scottish Football - and Lawell knows that better than anyone else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
