Are we allowed to appeal and free him up for the game tomorrow? Cheers.

On the grounds there’s other examples in Scottish football of players breaching the rules without being bannedWhat do you want to appeal?
length of banWhat do you want to appeal?
Tavs injuredI always think tactical appeals have the propensity to come back and bite you. I'd rather we take our medicine and come up with a contingency.
We're Rangers. We should be able to cope.
Agreed. This Covid 5 label really grips my shit. We have enough enemies in the media and beyond painting this picture without our own adding to it.He'll play tomorrow and no reason he shouldnt.
Lets not call them the Covid 5, theyre not criminals and we shouldnt indulge fake news/views.
Consistency and lack of any punishments for other breaches? If all 5 get 7 game bans then we will have had equivelant of 49 games of players unavailable when no other team in a league full of teams that have breached protocols have lost players for more than 3. That's despite 8 going to a pub and not distancing, Griffiths not just attending a house party but hosting one and being reminded of his responsibilities, Dundee Utd team photo breach, St Mirren players car sharing, a player playing in a match when he should've been isolating after going on an overnight jolly, another player flying a girl in from America who he was a close contact with playing and training despite said girl not isolating, yet another player travelling home on a normal flight out with the secure bubble protocols playing the day after his now manager said he would be unavailable due to having to self isolate and then there is Dubaigate. The term consistency didn't just mean on the pitch from Rangers.What do you want to appeal?
After st Mirren on the 6th we don’t play in spl till the 21stWe appeal on basis that poets behaviour & inconsistencies in other punishments . This will mean all can play him in both games n hopefully gives us time to get tav fit
It took 17 days for the Jones/Edmundson hearing so this would appear to be on a similar timescale.I'm really surprised there has been no movement on this from the SFA and would love to think it's because we are questioning them behind the scenes on their reticence to punish anyone involved with Dubaigate.

Are they our own though, it's strange our own would talk like that.Agreed. This Covid 5 label really grips my shit. We have enough enemies in the media and beyond painting this picture without our own adding to it.

This will not be a 'Fast Track' Tribunal with the offer of a ban but a 'Disciplinary' Tribunal (they are different things), with no punishment set in advance of the Hearing. As such, they will set a date for the Hearing. That will be two weeks from date of citing.Are we allowed to appeal and free him up for the game tomorrow? Cheers.
How many days since Dubai?It took 17 days for the Jones/Edmundson hearing so this would appear to be on a similar timescale.
I agree we should accept a ban - on the proviso that said ban is consistent with those issued to the septic players involved in the indisputable Dubai covid breaches. If the Dubai crew are not similarly (and prior to our players) punished, then we should contest this to the bitter end.No chance of that happening. Fast track isn't an option and those would require a scheduled hearing.
He will be available tomorrow, and should play imo. My feeling is he will also be available for Saturday and again should play. We have done our own internal disciplinary procedure, it's not up to us to do the SFA's job for them.
Completely disagree with thise asking for appeals. They fucked up and deserve to be punished. I think we should be accepting a ban for the players if/when they arrive.
Whilst I don't disagree with the point you make the - easy - counter-argument from the SFA point of view is that their deterrent punishments are not deterring, so they get ramped up each time:Inconsistent application of the rules.
I’d be surprised if these was heard and dealt with before the end of the season. League will be wrapped up before they get their (inevitable) ban. They’d need to hold hearings etc and the players/club make representations. I understood that there were no “outsiders” involved and everyone there was within the players personal bubbles but that might be wrong. If it is right then that at least provides mitigation that Dubai and Jones/George didn’t have.Are we allowed to appeal and free him up for the game tomorrow? Cheers.
Whilst I don't disagree with the point you make the - easy - counter-argument from the SFA point of view is that their deterrent punishments are not deterring, so they get ramped up each time:
Aberdeen Seven - 3 games, all suspended
Bolingoli - 5 games, 2 suspended
Jones/Edmundson - 7 games, none suspended.
Covid 5 - ??
They could argue these 5 get MORE than Jones/Edmundson.
A fair point but also factor in the odd way St Mirren were dealt with, were their players not sharing cars to and from training (some with players from other clubs I'm sure) which is a breach of their "bubble" yet it was the club and not the individual players who were initially punished. I know attending a social gathering is a little different than commuting to work but you'd think maybe each set of players had been made aware of what they can and can't do.Whilst I don't disagree with the point you make the - easy - counter-argument from the SFA point of view is that their deterrent punishments are not deterring, so they get ramped up each time:

I don't think they can as it can't be fast tracked. Did they not say on one of the podcasts that they need to deal with Dubaigate first before they get onto Partygate?
Great header if you’re a mhankAre we allowed to appeal and free him up for the game tomorrow? Cheers.
refgate is the biggy.I don't think they can as it can't be fast tracked. Did they not say on one of the podcasts that they need to deal with Dubaigate first before they get onto Partygate?
Covid 60 mate.Ffs do we call celtic or any other players the covid 3, the covid 13, the covid 8? Please do not use that scum papers headline to label these individuals like they were the first footballers involved with a covid scandal where label sticks!
They are leaving that till the start of the closed season.How many days since Dubai?
Because they haven’t dealt with Dubai yet or are likely too.What do you want to appeal?
