if you cant pay for the players you have at the minute


you cant buy anymore

simples

The quicker they publish these 'reasons' the better as far as I'm concerned. Only the SFA could create controversy by handing out the punishment before you know the reasons behind it.

Ghod

You mind may well be 'simples' but the rules clearly state the sanctions available. None of which include transfer embargos.

you actually owe

Rapid Vienna money for a player you have since sold

the Jelavic money from Everton has in the words of Duff & Phelps

'Disappeared'

Your point being?

The Rapid money is not overdue, neither is the Wallace money.

Fancy answering the question?

Rule 2 requires Rule 1 to be broken, yet we were found Not Proven in Rule 1.

How did they manage then to punish us under Rule 2?

So youse want a CVA..then go out to buy players..

they obviously think this is a punishment fitting of the crime

I can't open that link.

What does the rule book say about the sanctions regarding administration?

Charlie

Like Motherwell, Dundee etc before us?

How about answering the question, where did they find the transfer embargo sanction when it's not in the rules?

They have a relatively wide ranging remit and latitude under Rule 66 so long as it is conducted within the SFA rules that member clubs all signed up too.

Ask a lawyer

Don't know, Paisley.

Where did they find it?

Hector

That was Rule 14 where we got the maximum fine of £50k, the other sanction available was Termination of membership

Welcome to my point. The SFA rules I've already copied and the available sanction, from their own rules. Transfer embargo is not one of the sanctions, nor is there a 'catch all we can make up any other we see fit' sanction listed either.

If only the late Paul McBride was still with us, he had a hard on for the SFA.

Hector

I'm sure it's still hard.

Paisley, yir an R-sole.

PBN

Bad lad.

Point being he knew their rulebook was a complete legal bawhum

Why would that be Q?

Not to worry, I'm sure the QC on the panel knew his stuff, we'll await the appeal and the reasons.

It's not like the SFA to get things wrong is it? I'm sure McBride had all those pesky loopholes closed after he got his client off on them.

PBN...No one gives two fooks..sooner Rangers GTF the better

Is the op suggesting that the SFA invented a transfer embargo?

Do embargos not happen in football?

Also, after getting filleted by Celtic last season I am pretty sure the SFA will have their legal bases covered.

Charlie

I'm shocked, your club stands for sporting integrity and fair play, level playing fields without fear or favour.

Surely you want to see the rules applied fairly, no?

PBN if the rules were being applied fairly you would be playing a youth team right now.

Wind it in.

Tim

I'm posting the link to the rule, which clearly outline which sanctions apply for rule breaches.

There is no sanction available which could create a transfer embargo, nor one that suggests they have a right to make one up.

So where did it come from? People within football seemed genuinely shocked when this decision arrived?
