We Will Follow Rangers 13,391 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Robust and well timed statement, let the mutants have their whine and then respond, ultimately theres fuck all title stripping can be done or they would have done it already. Bet Kings almost delighted the ruling and the foaming tarriers response has taken the derry off the team. Few things better than a beeling taig, hopefully this statement makes em even more beeling..

ianferguson 2,619 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 The tims fired the first shots and King has returned fire in great style. If Liewell is stupid enough not to cease fire then King must open the INGENIOUS film makers debate where over a dozen high profile cel*s were involved in a tax avoidance scheme now deemed as illegal . We were up front and transparent with everything regarding EBT'S , lets see if they're as open with their tax avoidance issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go further - if the hostile fire from the east end continues I would want the above financial matters brought into play, but also a straight, public, question posed by King and the Rangers Board: 'Have the  Scottish football authorities yet considered, or do they intend to consider, the possibility of sanctions (following the international precedent set by the Penn State case) being imposed in any proven cases where child abuse has been covered up?'  It's a fair and reasonable question. The reaction would be interesting to say the least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

plumbGER 24,518 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Could the SFA charge the beggars for bringing the game into disrepute by trying to influence matters? Doubt it would happen but we could press for it. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don54 25,598 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 The Celtic board issued a statement agitating for a re-opening and reversal of the decisions previously made when, in fact, nothing has changed. It is disappointing that they have attempted to influence the footballing authorities to alter its historic football honours by calling on administrators and lawyers to achieve off the pitch what its teams failed to do on the pitch. So typical of the offended ones, and laughable when you see shit like this https://footballtaxhavens.wordpress.com/ and falsifying attendances in the 60's and 70's ( Is that not some sort of tax avoidance ? ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just means the tone gets set in an anti-Rangers way. There's been very little in the way of opposing points of view when I've listened over the last few days.

Tbf, he's not clamoring for title stripping the way Keevins was the other night. He's saying that it's debatable as to whether Rangers could have afforded it. Of course they've highlighted King's previous contradictory statement as well. Like I say, absolutely no argument being presented in our favour. Nada. And considering what could be said about EBTs and financial advantages abroad and in Scotland, and all of the other things that've been discussed on here, it's pretty poor.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
