All depends upon the tax decision - But it could be a case of - Footie people don't have to pay tax, do they Harry. They might get off.


I don't really care either way as the league was in the bag. ;-)


Show me the money, backed Celtic when 12 points behind. But then I back them most years.

Rangers have been deducted ten points by the Scottish Premier League after an administrator was appointed at the Court of Session.


The club will also be prevented from registering any new players until they exit administration, except in the case where an emergency goalkeeper is required.


Court proceedings in Edinburgh on Tuesday resulted in the appointment of Duff and Phelps as administrator.


Rangers? ten point deduction applies immediately and will see their tally reduced to 51, leaving them in second spot.


Ally McCoist?s side would be 14 points adrift of Celtic and nine points ahead of third placed Motherwell, who have a game in hand. Rangers have 12 SPL fixtures left to fulfil this season.


If the club are still in administration at the start of the 2012/13 season, they will start the campaign on minus ten points.


SPL rules forbid the club from registering any new players from this point forward. Rangers, if required, could appeal to the league to appoint an emergency goalkeeper, if they can prove one is required due to injury or illness.

Just got this as a text and thought it was funny.


Fergie's priorities


Kung Fu kick a fan = OK

Miss a Drugs test = OK

Sleep with your brothers wife for 8 years = OK

Sleep with Granny prostitutes = OK

Don't shake hands with one of his players = Ban them for life.


I hadn't actually thought about it, but it is a fair point really.

apart from the obvious Cantona one, the others aren't really relevant to the game tho, are they - personal matters when not representing the club.


The drugs test maybe, but feasibly an accident and he did serve his sentence


so that leaves the kung fu kick. Which I still have a sneaky regard for. But it wasn't "ok" - the club suspended him for 4 months

If Suarez had been a Utd. player we'd have been hearing about the stress 'the lad' had been under and the 'misunderstandings' that arose because of a clash of cultures and that, regarding the handshake, he missed or didn't see (also the Wenger take on this) Evra's hand as it had dipped out of vision and the lad's only human for God's sake and it's time to lay off him and give him a chance especially as he's apologised time and time again.

Back to real life dilemmas. I'm sad that Rangers have gone into receivership, but not so much that Portsmouth are struggling - it gives Milwall a breathing space. I know it's wrong to benefit from others' misfortunes - does that make me a really bad person?*

It was personal, but wasn't there the added complication of the England team and dressing room morale, esp with the other Man City players???

What's interesting in light of recent events is that Wayne Bridge didn't have to apologise for not shaking Terry's hand.

Exactly - I was 'quoting' what I thought Fergie would say and I think he would easily turn a late, forced apology into 'apologised time and time again'.

Maybe Alex Salmond could (for the sake of Scottish Unity and in the cause of Scottish cultural strength) help bale them out with loans/tax breaks. He could make them promise never to even think of joining the Premier league and commit their future to Glasgow as a result.


And (being as kind as possible) Portsmouth will survive, and the idea that the puddy-tats would need and gratefully grab such a 'breathing space' is the kind of delightful picture that puts a smile on the face of waifs and strays everywhere.

You are joking right? That bas*ard hates Rangers and the supporters more than the English!

He or his cronies in the SNP may say the right things "bad for Scottish football on a whole", "sad day" etc etc, but they'll be dancing a jig at the news.


I'm stunned. I can't quite believe it has happened so quickly and NOT as a direct result of the tax case rather that the fu*king con-man that is Craig Whyte hasn't paid taxes since he took over. ?9m is the figure owed since May.

PLUS the main tax bill relating to EBT's that could reach ?75m.


Maybe we'll come out of this stronger the other side, as long as we avoid liquidation, and take one or two seasons on the chin - we'll still be ahead of Celtic in league trophies!!!


I just hope the knock on effect isn't as wide as it could be and other clubs don't feel our demise in their pockets which they have the real potential too.


RTID.

SCSB shows signs of stress. No surprise there.


PGC shows signs of being the nice person that I'm sure she is. Class is permanent. Rangers will be back somehow. Celtic came through near collapse and I'm sure Rangers will come back too. As someone who only really started supporting Celtic when they were down and out, the slow rise to recovery is the best feeling in football.

What Glasgow Rangers fans are going through at the moment pales in comparison to what the Portsmouth fans have been through over the past few years. Still, I must say it is a very sad day for Scottish football. Where once it was a two horse race there is now only one team in it. Celtic may as well be handed the SPL on a plate now and for the next couple of seasons.

Otta, I have to accept Tevez is coming back. I may not be particularly happy but that's the world football lives in. We should have off loaded him 2 seasons ago-every transfer window he has been a prima donna.

On a lighter note and in reference to your Fergie post (sorry RD/Laddy Muck ! >:D<)

    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
