WTF has it got to do with the SPFL?

Parasites.

STILL NO MENTION OF THE PRIZE MONIES TRANSFER FEES OR INTERNATIONAL PLAYER PAYMENTS THEN?

Give rangers the tv money owed and prize money etc

Let them pay the old debts owed

Thats fair.

If rangers want to claim they are the same club as before, then they should pay this debt and the rest

the law claims we are the same club we have no say in the matter

if they want this and are legally entitled then take it out the money the (SFA) stole from the creditors

It doesnt seem to matter if we are classed as a new club or old though - the 5 Way "Agreement" seems to state that they can extort more money out of us whether we are a new club or old.

Fckin bloodsucking cants.

We better fight this tooth and nail. They need to give us our prize money or they can fck off with this "fine".

And Lawell can gtf as well. He's already shown his true colours - he aint fit to have any say in anything to do with us.

Iv always said if rangers are the same club they should be made to pay the old debts and take the money that was owed to them as well.

Cleanest solution possible imo that way there is no cake and eating it from either party.

Scottish footballing authorities are laughable, lawwell though he may have faults is 10 times smarter than any of them.

that tv deal in china, im willing to bet that was all lawwell but that useless rodent doncaster was throwing his face around all over it

I used to think they were just incompetent, I didn't go in for the conspiracy shiedt. But now I'm not so sure. The 5 Way "Agreement" and this new rubbish looks either vindictive or desperate.

Either way they arent fit for purpose.

They couldnt have handled the situation with rangers any worse tbh, if it happens to another club they will do something totally different. They should have a clear list of set penalties and thats it.

as bugs eyes says - good luck with that.

lord finding memo was quite clear that the new company that owned Rangers the club should not be held liable for any breaches of rules made by the previous company.

5 way extortion "agreement" or not.

Dunno, found his judgement quite fishy if I'm honest.

I might hav had a wee bit of sympathy here if we hadn't spent all last week hearing about lord nimmo smith and how right he was. This fine we imposed by his commission. Are we now to believe that's he's actually a tube after all. Talk about having your cake and all that....

This fine we imposed by his commission
------------
yes it was and the spl as was set his commission in motion and were bound by its findings, and its findings were quite clear that the new company that owned Rangers the club should not be held liable for any breaches of rules made by the previous company.

so why are the spfl now re-visiting his findings and re-writing them to suit themselves - wheres the legality?

Seriously bored of this, worst thing is this will be a great smokescreen to a beleaguered Ibrox boardroom and will divert the fans' attention from where it really should be.

It's a football debt. Needs to be paid. Maybe they are just fed up listening to you all gloating about how you are debt free and bumped the treasury

It's a football debt. Needs to be paid.

there's no legal basis for re-visiting nimo's judgement.

I'll say it again...

the new company that owns Rangers, the club, should not be held liable for any breaches of rules made by the previous company who owned Rangers the club.

Nimmo Smith's judgement was clear on that.

I think this whole company / club thing is ridiculous.

In that case the company bought the players so owns the trophies won by them? Where is a line drawn?

Whole things a bag of cats tbh

why does the low level paper gatherer, you know, the fat sweaty lawyer who wrote the rules, built the case and prosecuted the case want paid anyway?

surely it was a labour of love

____________________________

Not really, the lines for this have been drawn in law and in legal courts for decades. It's just some fans, journalists and SPFL can't seem to accept the laws of the land.

It's no different if I have a company called UKKAP holdings and as such UKKAP holdings bought from Snippit plc (who went into liquidation) one 'Snipit hairdressers' on Argyle Street'. So Snippit hairdressers emerged from administration under my ownership with no break in business or history

Now when I bought snipits, they had won hairdressing awards for years and when I bought it I bought the name, shop, staff and business as a whole. All the awards stayed as won by the business, however I don't owe any money that snippit plc owed. That is nothing to do with me.

All of this is extremely simple. Some people don't want to get it as they have an 'agenda'

It's doubtful if a fine constitutes a "football debt" in the sense used in the agreement.

Especially a fine imposed after the agreement.

We'll see what happens.
