Final Outcome

Whatever happens in November with the kanagroo court I really hope that will be the end of all this concerned with Rangers. This year has been a very testing year for many people who have had no control over what has occured.
I take my hat off to my fellow Rangers fans who not only stuck by the team have had to put up with some really personal abuse for supporting a team in trouble.
This is not the first or will be the last team to have this happen to them but i bet it has been the biggest media coverage and punishment ever dished out and still people are not satified.
This could end up with the only crime being unpaid tax by Craig Whyte's rule and does the punishment fit the crime?
Lets just hope all the banter here in 2013 will be concerned with the football on the park instead of the courtroom.

I think the penny may have dropped for me on this one.

The Brasil chap had time left on his contract.
Both parties wanted him out.

So the 750k was the negotiated pay off.

The crux being this was from his existing contract.

Hence why HMRC found Celtic guilty and tax had to be paid, and therefore as part of a declared contract why the SPL found them innocent.

I think

An SPL source said: “It’s a simple process of matching it up to our rule book.

“In the case of Celtic’s EBT for Juninho he wasn’t paid while he was kicking a ball for Celtic. He received payment after he’d finished playing for the club.”

Part of everyones confusion is the complete lack of understanding by the media and even the football authorities.

Read the quote I give above........

Now seriously are we meat to take that in and believe it.

If true then a player can have his declared contract running all well and good but in the background have a silent clause undeclared promising him a further undeclared payment when he leaves the club.

That cant possibly be correct and frankly is pretty much the whole issue. Additional payments if made during or after the player leaves amounts the frign same thing Mr SPL spokesperson with no name

Not really a severance deal is common for many contractors and the details will no doubt have been in his contract to some degree. It may not have been to the penny but it will have been in the contract that he is entitled to a severance package.

If you are going to pick on this then we would have to review every player that's ever received a severance package and void their registrations as well.
