Rangers Then, Sevco Now, Scotland's Shame Forever....

[Jackjarvis]

It just depends on how much more the shareholders want to throw money into the black hole - will be £28M by the end of this season and counting and yet they still have a sh1t football team that is a million miles away from winning the league. By my reckoning they have 26 players who would be getting paid high first team wages or high loan fees - they just don't learn do they

They will never learn:

The club bought Lafferty for £3,250,00 plus paid him handsome wages for more than 3 years.....the club then died and Lafferty refused to sign for the new club and citing constructive dismissal moved to Sion on a free(well he and his agent got a signing on fee) move on a few years and the new club of whom Lafferty refused to play for agree to pay Hearts £500,000 plus again gauruntee him handsome wages for 2 years.......you could not make it up.......the pr1ck is not even that good.....admin will follow as long as they haemorrhage money on transfer fees/wages on players that cannot give the return on the pitch.

The original Rangers went bust so there is no reason why Sevco can't too. Of course then there would be a third Rangers.

I wonder if that was what happened to Lanark as well

Four strikes and you're out.

Huns are appealing the red card to candeias at the weekend even though going by the rulebook you cant appeal yellow cards (he got two) but seeing as its "exceptional circumstances" they've appealed. Wonder if it will be successfull?

You can appeal a yellow card either for simulation or mistaken identity. We successfully appealed a yellow which Madison got for diving by Clancy against ICT and also for Shinnie for diving by Madden against Dundee United. Apparently sevco are using mistaken identity as the basis for their appeal, but can't see how that can work given no other sevco player was within 20 yards at the time. Speculation is that they are alleging that he was mistaken for Ferdinand as the player who made the aggressive move.

Well i knew you could appeal certain yellow cards like you said mistaken identity but was under impression huns have no grounds for appeal,HTF can you mistake ferdinand for candeias???

It is Willie Collum we're speaking aboot , though, so anything's possible

Mind the time he mistook Adam Rooney getting slam-dunked in the penalty box by some Hamilton clogger , not only as fair play by the Accies player , but actuallly as a foul by Rooney

Interesting stuff here. (Though didn't realise we had made a loss last season...?)

"CLUB RESPONSE TO SCOTTISH FA’S DECISION TO DISMISS OUR APPEAL:

RANGERS are extremely disappointed with the decision of the Scottish FA’s Judicial Panel to dismiss our appeal against the second yellow card shown to Daniel Candeias in the closing seconds of last Saturday’s match against St Mirren.

Rangers afforded the governing body the opportunity to let common sense prevail and we are surprised they have chosen not to do so by correcting what was, and what remains an inexplicable decision by the match referee, Willie Collum. Rangers shall now seek a fundamental review of the rules relating to red cards which result from two bookings of a player in a game.

If one of these decisions is obviously wrong, it must be possible to correct that mistake. It is wrong that players’ livelihoods and careers can be impacted without the opportunity of redress, especially when the official responsible for the miscarriage of justice is allowed to continue as though beyond question or reproach.

It defies belief that this same referee, who got it so blatantly wrong last Saturday, is awarded one of the biggest matches in Scottish football this weekend while Daniel Candeias is denied the right to go to his work. This, frankly, is unacceptable.

Furthermore, it is understood that a number of people within the Scottish FA are in no doubt Mr Collum’s judgment was flawed and Rangers shall also now be submitting a formal complaint about the performance of this referee. The manner in which he reacted to an incident involving our player made it obvious he did not give due consideration to his decision.

This is by no means the first time errors of judgment have been made in matches involving this official and clearly there is an underlying issue which requires to be addressed."

Suck it up hun*******s.
