"GEORGE PEAT thought ‘people would have guessed’ which club told him not to help Rangers amid their fixture pile-up in 2008."

"The ex-SFA president has reiterated he will not name the club which contacted him ten years ago."

If you've not got the bottle to name them George. Why bother bringing this up 10 years later 

He's all but confirmed it was the beast Reid he won't name him for legal implications as they'll be no proof. He said prominent club so could only be the unwashed, Aberdeen, Hearts or Hibs. There simply is only one that would benifet and have the balls to do it

This feels really strongly like someone has dropped a grenade into the upper echelons of the scottish football community and it has brought home a realization that all these clubs were played as patsies by the taigs. The resignations at the sfa, going after the guy at the spfl, not gone yet but am sure we are biding our time. Someone somewhere is playing a game and getting results. Either info has come to light or the trail of circumstantial evidence is getting too long to ignore.

Ironically Hearts got all the help in the world. It makes me absolutely raging.

Surely there must have been rumblings in the football world about this revelation in 2008? Or did Peat keep this to himself for all these years? Why has he never came out before now? I wonder if he was paid off to keep quiet but suddenly now has got a conscience? it's all very strange. 

hearts got more help than most folk know

I know a couple of jambos who gloat about the special meetings in the months leading to their admin ,admin that they entered the minute the season ended ,they were insolvent for months .

No SFA investigation for this .too busy investigating us for made up accusations

After so many years of SHITE as a support we have become desensitised to a lot of the stuff aimed at us.

Prime example this thread is only at 10 pages just now.

In 20 years plus we will look back on this story very differently and maybe realise how outrageous it is for somebody at a rival club to be such a backstabbing cunt 

as it stands just now it's just another page in the story of our last 7years

These two interviews with Peat just leave more questions than answers. I’m still waiting on a competent journalist asking him why, after he’s said ‘he saw no problem with extending the season to help Rangers’, that never happened.  

Why did it not happen, when everyone inside and outside football knew it was plain wrong to ask so much of one club to play so many games in such a short period of time? Maybe he was influenced after all... It was and is an utter shambles.

Ffs Advocaat the Zenit boss also said it was crazy as they got 10 days or something to prepare, but us we stumbled from one fixture to the next like a punched boxer.  Ffs we played Motherwell I think was a 11.30ko The Saturday after Manchester, then it was tues, Thursday then the cup final on Saturday.  

We all knew and the question must be asked who else knew within the SFA and spfl and why has it took 10 years to come out ? 

I can't decide if peat is just looking for attention or something has happened and he's decided to drop a bomb on the Scottish authorities.

He's all but confirmed it was the taigs chairman that begged for Rangers to receive no help with the fixture list. sporting integrity only when it suits your needs.

It's time King and co address this and take some action.

The fact it was 10 years ago should count for nothing. The SFA have been trying to charge us for events going back to 2012 relentlessly.

LOL How do I know if i'm correct unless I ask questions in this debate? The rules are quite complex to a mere woman like me. You wouldn't expect me to complain until I have all my facts correct, would you?? 

Still asking questions ?

But he did not beg him as Peat was extending the season he has already admitted that , More like he told the SFA chairman the guy running our game what to do. They were also plotting their next step with the SFA and that was the referees and we all know what has happened since then.

Peat also stating that he called the mystery chairman back after discussing a season extension with Lex Gold who was SPL not SFA. Gold made it clear that a number of clubs would be against that so the hatred doesn’t end at the Glitterdome.

The only way we will ever regain our status and uncover all the backstabbing is to win trophies and keep winning. Re-establish ourselves as the dominant force.

They probably don’t even realise it but Scottish football as a whole needs us now more than ever.

Everyone in world football, outside of Scotland that is.

Time for indigenous Scots to stop entertaining these timmigrants, fenians in the GCC oot - and then get the SNP to fuck.

It should be clear to everyone, if they're abusing their position in football, they're doing the very same in politics.

Nothing will ever come of this, we all know that. 

But we simply must bow to no requests or demands in the future, for any reason, unless it suits us fully.

And when the media campaign mounts about our lack of sporting integrity, and it will, direct the cunts to the lies and agendas used and abused by our enemies when we did the right thing morally back then.

?

I'm quite confident that none of us are mate ..... this just confirms what we all knew about the lengths our enemies have gone to (and continue to do so) to stop us having a level playing field .... makes you sick even when we are right and destroys the myth that we all suffer from paranoia ..... (I said the last word in a Cuban American accent ala Scarface) .... :p:

it's difficult to see if any rules were broken ,even if there were rules broken there would need to be an appetite to go after the guilty parties and turkeys don't vote for Xmas

I am actually surprised that this wasn’t commonly understood. 

Anyone that did not understand that Reid was the main protagonist in the campaign to destroy Rangers just wasn’t paying attention. 

I thought in 2008 it was understood but seen as typical ambulance chasing behaviour. I don’t think anyone could have foreseen the much much worse skullduggery that was yet to come. 

I will never be convinced that the pursuit of Rangers by HMRC was anything other than an orchestrated victimisation of our club at the behest of life peer and Baron John Reid prominent political figure with huge influence due to his political career. 

Fact. Rangers debt was a very manageable 18 million pounds when we were forced into admin. 

Fact. EBTs were legal tax avoidance as advised by the best tax minds at the time. 

Fact. Well maybe a fact perhaps someone else can confirm. HMRC have yet to pursue any other business to the full extent without any interest in negotiated settlement for use of EBTs. But rather settled with a few amicably. Only Rangers did they pursue doggedly. 

But we all know this 

We were done up like kippers. And the only force strong enough to instigate that would have been someone with serious governmental influence.

 

???

Well said mate .... and the dirty tactics  will continue relentlessly.
