I've always wondered how many things were kept quiet and made to go away considering they have/had some powerful people either working for them or supporting them. John Reid while a cabinet minister and that evil criminal of a First Minister being the big two. Also heard the rumours of Gerry McCann working as youth team physio but that's irrelevant to the current topic and haven't seen any definitive proof of that. kelvd1873 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not the only person on the boards though. If they pay a settlement we need to demand they have sanctions brought against them.

It will be scandalous, but Scotland is run by the SNP/loony Greens and the FM is a tarrier fan. The best we can hope for is that the victims get reasonable compensation and it puts a dent in their finances, but my guess is it will be a small enough amount that will not really effect them. I would love to be wrong with all that, but I have no faith in anything else happening.

Yes it is scandalous but there's not a hope in hell of any kind of sporting sanctions going against them. They'll have long laid the groundwork to make sure that doesn't happen. The victims hopefully get compensation and the closure they deserve. I'd like to think thier sponsors would look at this and start pulling out but again feel like that's not happening.
