Pie Of The Month Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Rangers conning the crown? No doubt their fans will be outraged by this act of treason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Argus Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Not sure if this is the right place for this thread but looks like another Scottish club are playing a game of chance with HMRC. forgot the link http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/editor-s-picks-ignore/taxman-targets-rangers-1.1023503 Its not the same as us, though. Our directors simply didn't pay the tax monies, no suggestion that was to individual players advantage. In the h**ns case this was being done to the benefit of indiviual players, who avoided their tax liabilities. Its a well know loophole that HMRC frequently warn employers about exploiting.

nickywalkerfanclub Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 And demote them two leagues. Just the one would do, tanning their smelly unwashed arses 4 times next season would be something to look forward to over the summer.

Lionel J. Botch Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 And demote them two leagues. The sad thing is that this will never be allowed to happen. If they went into administration the other members of the SPL would not vote them out. A wee team on the other hand......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I know, but it's nice to dream of seeing one (or better, both) of the OF being treated according to the laws and punishments of the game that is meted out to anyone outwith the Ugly Sisters.

Blackpool Jags Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I just love this bit: However, Mr Ahmad's QC said a "pattern of diminishing working capital is evident". He said: "There is no concrete evidence that there is a saviour (for Rangers)." Fandabbydozy. Heh heh heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 There's three Sevco season ticket holders in my work that gave up their ST this season and in two cases these tickets had been with their deceased father, so the seat had been in their families for years. They are sickened by what is happening at their club, but probably more to the point, sickened by the type of football they are watching under Super Salary.

stillresigned Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I was advised by a H*n supporting mate that all talk of Sevco being in financial do-do was just rumours spread by Celtic (and Aberdeen ) fans. Think I'll phone him over the weekend for a laugh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanieD Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Not to worry ..........the naming rights for their ground have been bought from Ashley by a High Street multi-national reflecting the price paid for the rights - inevitable it's the Ibrox "Poundland" Park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 http://www.dailyreco...te-spfl-4177789 I hadn't realised that football sanctions against non payment of wages didn't include club staff. In practice that'll often mean pay the players (plus McCoist etc) in full at the expense of the poorest paid. Nice to know that us supporters aren't the only ones that Doncaster & Co hold in complete contempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to know that us supporters aren't the only ones that Doncaster & Co hold in complete contempt. Yip, it's a complete joke. If it transpires and it is looking increasingly likely, we can all expect the youngest club in Scotland to get a slap on the wrist as punishment. Frankly if a club that is just over two years old goes into admin, the place should be shut down ....permanently!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Frankly if a club that is just over two years old goes into admin, the place should be shut down ....permanently!! Maybe. But there's a strong argument to keep it afloat. Kinda like a pub that continually falls foul of environmental health and barely pays even lip service to licensing laws. Because the premises is the haunt of pond life the polis are less than keen to see the place shut. By keeping it open they at least know where to find the dregs of humanity. Otherwise they'd seep out in the streets and permeate into decent pubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
