I will add I think it's rancid the way some owners fuck the fans over.

pompey, stockport, rangers, few more will go that way soon too.

Having Rangers join the English leagues is one thing, but I would say no to Celtic. After witnessing the moronic anti English behavior of their fans at a friendly against Leicester, I would think the last thing they would want is to have to follow their team to England once a fortnight.

As for Alex Salmond, did you see Jeff Randle take him apart last week? I really dislike Salmond, but actually felt embarrassed for him. He is fast becoming a figure of fun, and I would think the last person any self respecting Scot would want to be associated with.

Dodge paying their taxes means more money to spunk on wastes of spaces like Flo etc and is cheating so yes if they admit to that then any trophies won should be taken away.

Financial cheating is just as bad as drug cheats as it is not a level playing field and anyone who says it is only the taxman then I just hope that one day you don't have to use the NHS or anything else funded by taxes.

I'm sure that fenian cunt lennon will run into some pissed off Rangers fans 1 night and pay for his opportunism, then we'll have to put up with him playing and being portrayed by the liberal left as the innocent martyr in "the ugly side of Scottish football"

And Lennon is just as bad dodging his taxes but luckily he has been done and look at that cunt Hartson, lets the NHS save his life then dodges paying his taxes.

Truly sickening.

Rangers haven't been found guilty of dodging tax. The case of the Employee Benefit Trust's which HMRC was bringing to court has never been heard. When David Murray sold Rangers to Craig Whyte for £1. The case was hanging over the club. But David Murray said that his legal advisors and accountants were 'optimistic' that they would win the case. Craig Whyte has since taken Rangers into administration for not paying tax on players wages. There was the 'Big' tax case and the 'Small' tax case. The 'Big' tax case has never been heard. It was the 'Small' tax case that finished Rangers.

The EBT's were in Rangers accounts which were signed off by the SFA every year when they gave Rangers a licence to play football. So they can't say they weren't aware of them. What they are saying now though is that these are 'dual contracts' which are against their rules. But they let Rangers use them without query for years. They were never a secret in the clubs accounts.

Now the people wanting to strip Rangers of titles and honours are the football organisations themselves.

Look at John Terry for a moment. I was talking to a lawyer about him in the gym before his trial. He thought going to court was better than an FA hearing. In a criminal case in court the burden of proof was not sufficient for a conviction. Had it been an FA inquiry the same burden of proof wouldn't have been required as in a court of law. So he would have been punished.

No way are some kangaroo court of SPL/ SFA chairmen and muppets that work for their organisations like Regan fit people to judge Rangers. No chance, not without all this going to a proper court and the HMRC case being contested.

Someone sent me a link to this, an interesting documentary I thought.
