Dunno, but as far as I am aware, championship medals are presented to the players when the trophy is held aloft. Even if they were collected afterwards to print names and somesuch, this would have been done long ago ... I mean, we've October 30th when that was happenening and we won it in mid-May? These sure were spare medals, were they not?

That's why I thought they might have been additional medals commissioned by the club. Otherwise, I don't see how they could be deemed an asset to the club. I am guessing whoever wins the league doesn't have to pay for the medals....

You really do have to wonder what makes these scum so obsessed with us. I couldn't give a monkeys what goes on at the peadodome from day to day. Now I know that we are the world record holding league champs and they must be very jealous but surely it's more than that.

it deflects attention away from them...plain & simple.

Back page of the Record today....majority of the page is about the the Gers & the SPL medals - only a wee bit about them dropping points. In a footballing sense, I would have thought that the Bhoys dropping 12 points behind the leaders, and 3 pts behind 2nd place was fairly major news!!!

What I'm confused about....

Are these the medals presented to the players by the SPL for winning the league, or are they additional ones commissioned by RFC for their players????

If they are medals from the SPL for the players, how can they then be deemed as assets of the club???

They can't.

Is that not AFTER the tax case has been heard. I was referring to voluntary administration, before the case is heard ie. CW's parent company forces the club into Administration before HMRC does....

I don't believe that the directors of a company can put the company into administration just because they feel like it. Is the club unable to pay the debts due at the moment or over, say, the next 6 months?

Could it not be the case that CW's parent company, which holds the current debts, could effectively demand payment now. The club wouldn't be able to pay and therefore go into administration.

I think its too early to start heralding him as a legend....

There is no doubt he has quality, but he needs to prove it over the long term to become a legend IMHO. Banging in a few goals over the course of 1 full season, shows he's good.....doing it every season over a number of years would get him to legend status.

I have a tv connected to a Wii, Xbox, WD hard drive payer and a Dvd player. Not to a live feed. Also watch loads of stuff on iplayer. All with no tv licence. All perfcetly legal. If you have a similar set up. Do not pay the fee.

Don't believe a license is required to watch iplayer etc, coz its not a live transmission.....to watch things live, you require a license.

And by the way, the BBC does take cognisance of audience figures. People's jobs hang or fall by them.

but not to the same extend as STV for example. Commercial channels generate revenue based on advertising.....the higher the viewing figures, the more they can charge for the advertising space/time. Low viewing figures = lower advertising charges = less profit. The BBC on the other hand, rely on viewers (by law I believe, if you wish to watch LIVE TV) paying a set fee each year. Strictly Come Dancing dropping from 10m viewers per week to 1m, isn't going to impact the BBC revenue....the show would just get cancelled and something else would appear in its place.

At least ours are sober...

Whether you watch BBC or not...you still need to pay the license fee....

If we win and it goes to appeal am sure Auld Lizzie will put in a good word with her underlings. One can't have ones football team going bust.

Don't start that....I can see the headlines - "Monarchy biased against us - Celtic's concern"

The story will no doubt start...."Paul McBride QC commented yesterday....."

I keep forgetting we have Kyle Bartley.

From what we've seen of Bartley....he appears to be good, but rather injury prone. Therefore, how effective is he REALLY gonna be later on in the season?? Not gonna help if he plays one, then sits out 10 through injury....

Anybody else getting a text message that HMRC are offering an amnesty to any company who used the EBT.

could this be it:

Most likely someone wanting to make a fast buck.....register the logical names, then sell them back to CW if required for a tidy profit. Happens a lot with internet domain names.

The Main man himself - Coisty???

It's Jerome Rothen....isn't it????

These fuckers are waiting in hope of us going into admin to even get a remote sniff of the league! Could someone tell me when these so called ten points affect us please

need to go into administration 1st....lets not jump the gun!!!

To be honest there are only a couple of bad quotes on KDS regarding the poppy donation.

do you think last years shameful actions will get mentioned along with their "generous" donation this year - obviously not!!!!

A generation of Dominance......100% correct!!!!

Nobody has dominated 2nd place as well as they have over the last 3 seasons.....Motherwell obviously challenging that domination this season...

It may just be me....but that article sounds like proper journalism to me??? Wouldn't do some of the other "journalists" any arm to have a read....

I've stopped responding to the BBCs questions on Football Manager!

That's the spirit!!!

they pick near enough the same side ( defensively anyway ) every week and get results.

They really haven't grasped the concept of consistency have they??? Obviously we're doing something wrong in having a settled first 11....maybe we should start using the 'tic tactic of changing the defense about every week and conceding numerous goals.....this consistency lark just isn't working!!!

What difference is it going to make anyway????

The Beeb don't make their money from advertising, so viewing figures aren't gonna have any impact in their income. You also have to pay your TV license whether you watch/listen to anything BBC anyway - they already have your money....they're don't really care if the average person watches/listens or not!!!

It's about Whyte, and the programme was not named correctly.

The BBC named it correctly......They CHOSE to blur the lines between Whyte & Rangers intentionally.
