A fantastic piece. Time and again there is evidence Rangers directors could not have knew. Time and again the SFA panels analysis is proven flawed.
Reasonable remarks on Rangers.

The Tribunal took into account the extraordinary circumstances of the offences and the extent to which Rangers FC through its directors had been apparently misled and deceived by Mr Craig Whyte. Against that it took the view that whatever their position a number of individual directors and employees must have known that what was happening within Rangers FC was entirely wrong and illegitimate but they chose to do nothing to bring it to the attention of the public. That may be matter for their long term reflection but it does reduce the mitigatory impact of the suggestion that Rangers FC were innocent victims

SFA statement

Ok now I’m really confused. The directors were “misled and deceived” but “must have known”. There is that phrase, “must have known”. Also they apparently “did nothing to bring it to the attention of the public”. You mean apart from resigning and telling every media outlet who covered it that is was down to being excluded from corporate governance? You really could not make this up. We know the SFA were aware of issues with Whyte because they tried to get information from him in October

Ginger - I am concerned about the fit & proper test too.
And here is how it seems it may be getting "worked around"
No one investor apparently has more than 15% of the club.
The board are the people who need to be checked for fit & proper status. No doubt, when a board gets out together, this will be done.

Don't think they can do anything about minority shareholders, but they can certainly block anyone being on the board, with good reasons.
And as you say, there are ways around that - putting up a nominee on the board is the simplest method.
