Gerrard given 1 match ban

[eskbankloyal 19,446]

Given the nature of the charges - Gerrard will get a 1 game ban, both clubs and Brown will get a warning about future conduct, possibly a small fine

Pass - it happened in the referees room after the game

They fucked with our manager for nothing, to make it easier to go for the scum and placate the haters. Used as a pawn in a game of hate. Utter spineless cunts and they need to pay for it.

"Good game ref" probably covers it.

At what point does King and the Rangers Board act?   What more needs to happen for them to wrench their ostrich necks out of the ground and actually do something positive and effective to defend the Club and players, and to set right for the record the official Rangers view of the officiating and decisions of the football authorities in recent time - those which directly affected Rangers and those where there were comparable incidents that other clubs get away with?    

How far must it go before the Chairman and the Board actually do something effective (I don't just mean mealy mouthed wishy washy namby pamby protest statements)?

Natural justice is not being done nor is it being seen to be done.   Its being applied in a situation where Rangers are officiated differently.    Its as though the football authorities have decided among themselves (or otherwise influenced) to single out Rangers to mete out punishment at every circumstance possible.   The consistency of their actions inevitably begs the question of underlying agenda.    The absence of effective responses and interventions by the  Rangers Board also beg the question of what underlying agenda they are going along with because its obvious enough to many in the Support that natural justice is being denied and that Rangers is the target of special treatment in dishing out bans.  

Here's a question for King and the Board - do you and accept without reservation all of the bans and punishments dished out to Rangers this season?

Here's another question for King and the Board - are you satisfied that officiating of Rangers games has been carried consistently on an objective, fair (without favour or disfavour), impartial basis and that the same has been applied to all other clubs? 

Here's another question for King and the Board - what steps are you going to take to make sure that officiating at Rangers games next season is done on a demonstrably fair and unbiased basis?

Note also, the season isn't over yet.   There are opportunities for more red cards, yellow cards, citations and bans to be dished out so this is not necessarily the end point for this season.    I suppose it might be possible for the football authorities to tot up the charges and taking an overall season-long view decide to charge the Club with bringing the game into disrepute with some further punishment meted out?   Wonder if that'd dynamite the Board out of its foxholes?

At what point does King and the Board put on their armour, dig themselves out of their comfy foxholes and go on the offensive with the football authorities and media?   What would need to happen to get them to push the 'actions stations' button?    I for one have no idea for it seems to me that there is nothing that would rouse them into action as fit for purpose Stewards of the Club.

 

Makes you wonder what was in the 5 way agreement when we blatantly ignore what is happening to us, it cannot be all incompetence surely?

They are the fenian h*ns always have been always will. They started calling us h*ns late sixties /early seventies. We need to turn it back on them.

Decisions seem to have gotten worse since the meeting between managers except Clarke and the refs/sfa.

I would say it's the other way round, they went after Brown purely to allow them to go after us. Hence why Gerrard gets a 1 match ban & brown gets a hearing that will amount to nothing.

All stems from an absentee chairman and the biggest shitebag MD in the history of football. Dempster at Hibs has a bigger set of baws.

I can see Gerrard getting sick of the whole corrupt system up her and going back down to England.

That's a very good point.  It's all been too one-way with us on the receiving end of a lot of dodgy decisions / cards etc, and at the same time a sitting on hands and clamping jaws shut from the Board and execs.    Makes you wonder what leverage is being exerted on the Board / Club behind the scenes.  

Some might say that shoves things into the realm of paranoia.   But there's an easy way to knock that on the head and that's for King to come out and say that with no reservation whatsoever he and his Board and his football  coaching staff are entirely satisfied that the Club and our players have been treated completely fairly and no differently to any other club and that there is no evidence in their mind of Rangers being officiated differently to other clubs.     

I don't expect them to say anything of the sort though.   What I do expect they'll do is cobble together a namby pamby sort of protest note as a attempt to salve the wrath of the Support then retreat quickly back into sanctuary of the Ibrox boardroom where they can remind themselves of past glories while singularly failing to get enough of a finger out to get a lot more funding to make future glories happen anytime soon.

I have said it for a while now we won't get any help from anyone trying to get back to winning titles and trophies. We need to make sure we win our games and win them well so referees and others cannot influence results. It is us against the rest of them and let's not kid ourselves we are hated by all in sundry. Whoever we sign in this next window will need to be up for the fight  because this hatred towards us is only going to get worse as we get better and get even closer and eventually get in front of the pedos.

Can’t believe he’s accepted it. I couldn’t care less if he’d lamped Madden and threw him about the dressing room it’s about parity in the situation. 

Part of me wanted him to stand in that fucking dug out on Sunday as a message to the corrupt powers that be

I see.   So words by Gerrard counts as a more sinister offence than Brown's incitement and other actions.   Which was more visible to the public eye at the game and therefore more likely to have immediate consequential reactions from the stands and beyond?  Brown's inflammatory actions or Gerrard's unseen and unheard in public domain terms comments to the referee?     Offence taken by a referee to Gerrard's comments is a higher order offence in officialdom minds than a celtic player inciting trouble.    What kind of madness is this?  What kind of natural justice is this?

As for fines.  A small fine you think?   It wouldn't surprise me in the least if officialdom takes the opportunity to refer to the 'offences' league table for this season in reaching a decision and then takes its view on a cumulative basis so that its a sizeably bigger fine for us and badged as a deterrent for next season.

And our (absent) Chairman and (invisible) Board and execs?    What's that they say?  What message are they giving?   What line are they taking?   Fuck knows because they have donned the cloak of invisibility and silence and greased their corporate arse for the punishment its been predetermined the club will receive.    You'll have guessed I'm less than impressed by the lack of effective board leadership and defence of the Club.
