Updated Rangers Statement - SPFL’s legal adviser deems Rangers' Members Resolution as incompetent, other clubs being bullied

[david1982]

Well done Rangers back that fat f.uck into a corner and shine the light.

 

[jweebear]

Simple answer get a injunction stopping the SPFL, vote till our resolution is accepted.

 

[tomster]

Good statement from the club, will hopefully give a few clubs a bit more confidence to stand up to no doubt intense pressure to push this farce over the line.

Will hopefully of made clubs, who are being bullied, more determined to vote against the proposal that the spfl want.

 

[JCDarcheville]

Rangers board doing well here to shine a light on the absolute nonsense that the SPFL has become.

 

[Todd The Prod]

This is the start of Rangers gaining allies in Scottish football at long last .... something that should be nurtured and built on if we are ever to see an end to the cabal

I’d rather not have any of them as allies. They’ve shown that none of them can be trusted.

 

[Paulie Walnuts]

Not surprised in the slightest.

And to be honest l think our board anticipated this and went ahead with it in order to publicly show everyone what's really going on here.
And for that l salute our board.

 

[DangerousDave]

I would love to see the other clubs grow a set and name the bullies

 

[jweebear]

Are the SPFL legal team still Rod McKenzie and Harper McLeod?

Think the low level paper gatherer is solely working for the SPFL or SFA or both?

 

[ekbear]

Corrupt bastards.

Ideally I’d love it if we could just upsticks and move to the English leagues, that unfortunately is pie in the sky dreaming. So once this over Rangers with the other clubs have to go to town and demand the removal of Doncaster and Shifty McGifty. Also I’d be demanding new lawyers as the conflict of interest with beggars lawyers is clear as day.

What I’ve just typed out is probably waffle, but I’m fucking spitting venom right now as it’s clear as day what’s going on here.

 

[GodStruth]

We should ultimately be attempting to completely clear out the head honchos in Scottish football, in particular McLennan, Doncaster and their lawyers, Harper MacLeod, all of whom are there solely to benefit Celtic FC.

Scottish football needs professionalism and transparency at the top. We have neither

 

[bearspakora]

I hope Rangers just finally and publicly say it how it is, that the SPFL are unfit for purpose and demand resignations.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

perhaps worded poorly in a legal sense? or it was perfectly worded and their mentally challenged lawyer firm don't want it to happen?

It’s the same lawyers as the scum is it not SS ?

 

[big_blue]

Call me a cynic, but I'll wager some mysterious fault will be found with the 2nd submission at the last minute as well. There won't be time for a 3rd submission.

Exactly.

Every dirty, underhand corporate tactic will be used to get their own outcome.

It’s like an episode of Billions.

 

[si72]

These teams that are being coerced and bullied need to have a backbone and come out publically.

 

[Scooby]

Bullying and coercing.

If Rangers have used such strong terms, they must have been given proof of this from other clubs.

Looks like we are going to war.

 

[nelster]

Call me a cynic, but I'll wager some mysterious fault will be found with the 2nd submission at the last minute as well. There won't be time for a 3rd submission.

Did this not happen in 2012

 

[xd182]

I'd like the minutes of meeting to be made public when it's over.

 

[Blues and Royals]

Corrupt bastards.

We were once members of the Football Association. We need to look into trying to get that back because as things stand in this corrupt cesspit, we won’t be allowed to win another title and will end up like the other ‘ big ‘ clubs winning an odd cup competition every 10 years or so.

 

[The Moonlighter]

“ Sporting Integrity” flushed as their desperation to wave a bauble at their hordes kicks in....meanwhile thousands are dying.

 

[Coop1872]

so glad we have hired a new PR guy for this kinda stuff his statements have been fantastic through this absolutely no effing about straight to the point and keeps fans well informed. wish these clubs who have been bullies come out and speak and let every1 know what was said as the future of scottish fitba needs a level playing ground not run by corruption and bullying. we all know whos the main suspect in this that bastard liewell

Liewell will be pulling the strings but he will have his muppets doing the dirty work.

 

[Thasunke Witko]

Exactly mate. Thought the first statement and proposal the other day was perfect. Got other clubs thinking and on board and put us on the front foot. Lawell and co could be in the process of making fools of themselves here!

Fingers crossed

 

[JD1872]

“Over the last 36 hours, we have received numerous reports from fellow Scottish clubs relating to attempts to coerce and bully them into voting for the SPFL’s own resolution. We are proud that many fellow clubs will stand strong and not be swayed.”

Does this suggest the club think there are enough numbers to vote down the SPFL proposal?

 

[JW1988]

Publicly stating obstacles are being put in our way.

Publicly stating other members have told us of bullying and coercion.

Strong, strong stuff.

Well done

 

[dublinbluenose]

Rangers have been on point here, they foreseen this unfolding and have played it perfectly

Corrupt to the core and it’s disgraceful

They have caught them out big time.rangers set a trap and they walked right into it

 

[BlueSeaOfIbrox]

“Over the last 36 hours, we have received numerous reports from fellow Scottish clubs relating to attempts to coerce and bully them into voting for the SPFL’s own resolution. We are proud that many fellow clubs will stand strong and not be swayed.”

Does this suggest the club think there are enough numbers to vote down the SPFL proposal?

Not necessarily

Could be their way or calling clubs weak who fall for it and trying to get them to reconsider by knowing it's not just them they said no

That line could be took so many ways in not sure we should be reading into it

 

[Stewart clark]

Brilliant statement by Rangers

 

[Pep_x]

Lawwells lickspittle Neil Doncaster doing his masters bidding again.

The clubs should have hounded that moron out years ago.

 

[tomster]

Getting very interesting , I have a feeling this is just the beginning and not the end, it also seems that we are garnering support from other clubs which wasn’t the case a few years ago.
Are the previously blinkered clubs beginning to see the corruption within Scottish football.

Other clubs are now more worried about their own future and have to stand up now rather than just go along, like they were previously doing, to not upset a certain team. They probably were always aware of the corruption but turned a blind eye to it so as not get bullied themselves.

 

[SDF91]

“Over the last 36 hours, we have received numerous reports from fellow Scottish clubs relating to attempts to coerce and bully them into voting for the SPFL’s own resolution. We are proud that many fellow clubs will stand strong and not be swayed.”

Does this suggest the club think there are enough numbers to vote down the SPFL proposal?

Possibly.

I think it’s more to give the implication that any clubs voting in favour of the SPFL’s resolution have allowed themselves to be bullied.

 

[Erskineger]

Call me a cynic, but I'll wager some mysterious fault will be found with the 2nd submission at the last minute as well. There won't be time for a 3rd submission.

Then its court proceedings,bring the fuckers down,No Surrender.
WATP

 

[wsb&warmy]

Corrupt to the core.

All that needs to be said at this point, really.

 

[Sticky Fingers]

We should ultimately be attempting to completely clear out the head honchos in Scottish football, in particular McLennan, Doncaster and their lawyers, Harper MacLeod, all of whom are there solely to benefit Celtic FC.

Scottish football needs professionalism and transparency at the top. We have neither

Anyone who says McLennan hasn’t got ties with Celtic, and therefore isn’t conflict of interest is off their heads.
Any normal sane minded person looking into this and seeing the Celtic chief executive on the king making board of the sfa, and dermot desmonds pal on spfl board would tell you straight away that it’s corrupt to the core.

anyone saying otherwise is mental.
At least the club has took the gloves off and started swinging.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Bullying and coercing.

If Rangers have used such strong terms, they must have been given proof of this from other clubs.

Looks like we are going to war.

We all wanted it, and now our club are delivering.

Well done Rangers Football Club.

 

[GodStruth]

It sounds like we have been doing a fair bit of lobbying/networking with other clubs in the league, which can only be a good thing.

We probably have a good idea where this stands in terms of support

 

[Kingdom Bear]

I’d rather not have any of them as allies. They’ve shown that none of them can be trusted.

If we don’t make allies we will forever be in this cycle of being shafted mate ... it might stick in the craw but it’s the only way to combat the corruption

 

[giogaddi]

So what have Livi been promised then? Couple of filth players?

 

[grangers]

Bullying and coercing.

If Rangers have used such strong terms, they must have been given proof of this from other clubs.

Looks like we are going to war.

That concerns me, I wouldn't be surprised if the "proof" has been offered but will mysteriously disappear when it comes to the time to use it.
Don't trust any of the feckers

 

[Willger]

It's so transparent its ridiculous.
Joe Fitzpatrick government minister announces right on cue the day before the vote that we shut down until the 10th of June at the earliest.
I'd bet my mortgage he is connected to Lawell.
The SPFL lawyers will have Lawell on speed dial.
McLennan, Celtics hired hand, Doncaster, Mulreaney, and Karyn McCluskey will all be operating under Lawells guidance.
Its blatant corruption and should be investigated by the police.

 

[bearspakora]

"not competent" ... yet they want to push league reconstruction through in 3 days, so every club and their legal advisers have seemingly "enough time" to scan and decide on it?

If the story of the recent years of SPFL / SFA government would have been written as a screenplay, it wouldn`t have gone past the first editor/reviewer. When I start telling some fellow German football supporters of what is happening in Scotland, they look at me with more than a hint of assumed paranoia in their eyes. Up until I hand them the facts.

No-one would believe the corruption unless they actually stay here or closely follow Scottish football. It is that they do it in plain sight and nobody says anything that is disturbing.

 

[OdinsBeard]

So what have Livi been promised then? Couple of filth players?

Probably season tickets.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

So what have Livi been promised then? Couple of filth players?

Do they need it BB ? Their top guy has a ST at the Gadd Arena.

 

[andy5836]

That is disgraceful that they are trying to bully teams into voting for their resolution.

 

[GodStruth]

So what have Livi been promised then? Couple of filth players?

We'll gie youz 1m for Lyndon Dykes - honest

 

[Seaeye]

Only Club in the World who would stoop to such levels to "win" a tainted title.

 

[ekbear]

Lawwells lickspittle Neil Doncaster doing his masters bidding again.

The clubs should have hounded that moron out years ago.

They had the chance when they should have put in the guy from the SFL, who’s name escapes me. One look at Doncaster’s record at the SPL should have seen him not fit for purpose. But then again “what Peter wants, Peter gets.”

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

It's so transparent its ridiculous.

Correct mate.

 

[pearljammer]

Great statement,hopefully this is the start of fighting back at the sleekit war that has been waged on us for years.Other clubs have got to start to realise as well that one club running scottish is unhealthy.Right now i would love it if Rangers had a exit plan to get out of this cesspit.

 

[GF1]

We seriously missed a huge opportunity to apply to the English FA to start in their bottom tier years ago instead of this corrupt country

 

[big_blue]

If we don’t make allies we will forever be in this cycle of being shafted mate ... it might stick in the craw but it’s the only way to combat the corruption

Correct.

In a perfect world we could take them all on and win but that’s just not possible these days.

We need to help and receive help from other clubs to topple their hold over Scottish football.

If not we would be “nailed to the floor “ for ever.

 

[tacneb]

The mentally challenged cabal rule Scottish football, our game is corrupt as f**k, and l do not see this changing for a while, (if ever).

It feels like both our club and support are pissing against a gale force wind and being pissed all over, a very sad state of affairs.
