'ah bit, ah bit'

So, let me get this straight.

You ant the spl to buy Rangers?

Because Celtic would become part-owners.

Nope, I'm pointing out one league did everything to save their club and keep it in the league and fans didn't jump on it due to bigotry and jealousy. Whilst another league did everything in their power to try and kill us and kick us out.

Doncaster is on record as saying the newco should be in the spl.

Regan is on record as saying the newco should be in division 1 at worst.

So, if the football authorities are on record willing to assist the newco, who exactly has kicked you out?

Ah yes. The clubs. But not the authorities.

The clubs voted how exactly?

The SFA fined us in admin and gave us an illegal transfer ban.

But you agree, the authorities have tried to help.

The only other option, referring to the transfer ban, was a 12 month suspension (because let's face it, a cup ban is hardly a deterrent to other clubs who might fancy withholding page and nic).

So even in this last respect, the authorities have done everything they can to keep the newco going.

FFS the way you go on Castle you would think you lot are the victims in all this.

I don't agree they tried to help at all. How does kicking us out the league, giving us a transfer ban help exactly?

We didn't withold PAYE and NIC. We had no cash to pay it, just like Motherwell (twice) Dundee (Twice) and Livi

HMRC put all the above clubs into admin for not paying PAYE and NIC.

Timo - the clubs are the spl which is an authority

No fuss down in England calling for a transfer ban for Bradford 'withholding' PAYE and NIC. They sensibly recognise they couldn't pay it and don't pander to the media and other fans. Sensible lot those English.

I'm glad the SFA didn't buy us...they'd make a worse job of it than Whyte

The CLUBS kicked you out, castle.

Not the spl, not the sfa.

You did withhold paye, whyte tried to use it as leverage for the big one.

But really, I do not think there is any reasoning with you on this issue. Your mind is already made up regarding victimisation.

It's interesting to observe.

Explain how we had the cash Timinator to pay it. We went into admin due to having no cash. That's how it works. Money in vs money out.

As was said above the clubs are the SPL.

See you lot are still ragin' about it. Unlike the English who have brains and don't make bigoted wrong judgements.

So, Doncaster has never stated that he wanted the newco in the spl?

He has never argued that the game would suffer badly without it?

Not the spl, not the sfa.

Not entirely true Tim. The SPL kicked us out, but they (in my mind) passed the buck by getting the SPL Clubs to vote on it. I don't actually think it had the desired outcome for the SPL.

How did you manage to pay wages and run a football club up until 14th February without any cash?

You withheld it. You might have not been able to afford to pay PAYE and wages but the PAYE is supposed to be handed over first as its actually the employee paying it. You didn't hand it over and used this money to run your club.

Who gives a fook? You're in the 3rd. Get used to it

We ran out of cash and went into admin, those are the facts Celticdavie.

Doncaster does what the spl clubs tell him

posted on 2/8/12

A few clubs in England went Newco. No fuss at all down south. Happened in Europe with no fuss. Bradford run out of cash, no fuss. Our country it happens no fuss with Motherwell (twice) Dundee (twice) Livi. Happens to Rangers massive fuss from, SPL, SFA, media, other fans and even UEFA said our case was unprecedented as they'd never seen the like, but nah, it wasn't victimisation with made up rules.
