You would be wrong, Crown Office take precedent, it is also a criminal offence to interfere with or hinder a Crown Office investigation, as I said this is Scotland.

That may be English reading and statute, here in Scotland where Police are agents of the Crown Office, nothing interferes with Crown Office business. We wouldn't want to see two different opinions from two different bodies would we, if the Police uncover criminal activity the Crown Office will decide if it is in the public interest to prosecute, no one else will make that decision.

Strange that the IS would investigate whilst an alleged criminal investigation is taking place.

ALLY McCoist insists he will never feel ashamed of his Rangers side losing a Third Division fixture as he attempts to plot the club’s route back to the 
top flight. McCoist was stung by criticism of his immediate post-match reaction to Rangers’ first defeat in the fourth tier against Stirling Albion earlier this month when he said he was not embarrassed by the result. Rangers are still seeking their first away league win since the financial implosion which led 
to their demotion. McCoist is confident it will come this Sunday in front of the live Sky Sports cameras when Rangers face Clyde in a league fixture for the first time since 1975. But he believes there is a growing appreciation among his club’s support that his team are in no position to make any assumptions about any match they play in their new environment. “I got a bit of stick for saying I wasn’t embarrassed after the Stirling Albion game and I’ll go on record again as saying I absolutely wasn’t embarrassed,” said McCoist. “If I’d said that I was embarrassed after the Stirling Albion game, what a show of disrespect that would have been to them. That’s the one thing we’ll never do as a club. We will show everybody in the division the utmost respect. I was as disappointed and angry as I’ve ever been after any game, but what right would I have to be embarrassed? “Generally, managers and coaches within SFL3 knew it wouldn’t be a walk in the park for Rangers this season. And I do see a better, dare I say it, acceptance among our supporters of what has happened and where we are, generally speaking. I think there was, wrongly in my opinion, an automatic opinion by probably the majority of people that Rangers should win every game in SFL3. I knew that wasn’t the case. “It’s no surprise that it has been proved to me. But I think people are now taking a wee step back and looking at the much bigger picture. I do not in any way want to make it sound like an excuse, but the facts of the matter are that we lost 28 players and had to bring in some young lads. These are facts and I do feel there is a better acceptance of now. That said, we still have to win the league and get promoted. “I do feel we can get that first away league win on Sunday. It’s about time we started getting victories away from home. I’m hoping the fact we went to the top of the league at the weekend might have an effect, so we can kick on with a bit of confidence. It should be a lift and if we can win on Sunday, it would lift another wee mental block as well.” McCoist was speaking at a mist-shrouded Edinburgh Castle yesterday when he attended the daily firing of the One O’clock Gun to launch the Rangers Charity Foundation’s partnership with The Soldier’s Charity, aiming to raise £25,000 for the Army’s official national charity. His sense of humour has happily survived the turbulence of his Rangers managerial tenure so far. “The 1.20pm Gun has got a ring to it, don’t you think?,” he said on his arrival at the Mills Mount Battery. On this occasion, however, his notorious reputation for poor time-keeping was confounded as he had, in fact, turned up with some 15 minutes to spare. McCoist remains determined to emerge successfully from Rangers’ current trials and tribulations which he feels he may yet be able to reflect upon fondly one day. “There is a case for saying this is doing a lot for me as a manager,” he said. “It’s amazing the amount of people who have said to me, including other managers I speak to regularly, that there’s no manager who’s ever had this experience, going from where Rangers were to what we’re doing at the moment. “I hope that I’ll look back in 15 years and think it was great, but at the moment I’ve not got time to do that. It’s one hell of an 
experience. There’s nothing that will shock me now or surprise me. I’ve just about covered it all in the last 12 or 18 months. “The players have possibly found it harder in the Third Division than they expected. But you could make the argument that the team has changed since the start of the season. We had two international centre-backs playing, Dorin Goian and Carlos Bocanegra. So the whole transitional period will continue for a long time. We have to make progress, and progress is moving up the divisions. “The responsibility is mine. The buck stops with me. But we have to take individual responsibility within the whole thing as well. Dare I say, I thought on Saturday against Queen’s Park, although we lost our way for ten minutes in the second half, we showed a bit of resilience and steel to come back and sort it out again. “That will be required in the coming matches, especially away from home. It’s up to us now and we have to take individual 
responsibility within the team. “The home support have been absolutely fantastic. We have won our games there and looked a lot better at home than we have away. I think it’s about time we gave the travelling 
support something to cheer.” http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/sfl-division-three/ally-mccoist-no-shame-in-third-division-defeat-1-2594913

There wouldn't be a money raising event possibly happening would there ?

Have been keeping an eye on the Tribunals site for announcing decisions nothing showing up even as pending for Kenneth Mure QC. Mate at HMRC printers says as far as he knows nothing has gone up for tribunals print run. http://www.financeandtaxtribunals.gov.uk/Aspx/default.aspx

I will lay money that Elias Joseph Kaisar the Belizean with the Monaco address is the connection to Whyte.

Taking a direct correlation between our crowds and the total crowds of the spl how can the spl possibly survive, what will the effect be on football as a whole. The spl had roughly 40,000 in total spread over all games, how can that paucity of spectators possibly finance or even begin to do so the costs of the clubs in the spl, of course the crowds can't without tv money. Are we seeing the true reality that pay at the gate customers are indeed secondary to other factions, no more than a welcome assembly of paying extras. Where when and how will it all end.

Training at Auchenhowie lasts normally 75 minutes to 90 minutes max 4 days a week, there is no training regime worth the name.

Irony surely.

Bit more fight on the pitch would be the place, not the dressing room.

McCoist has premier division facilities and wages at his disposal, he has no excuse other than a lack of management skills.

Football is about entertainment, if you don't entertain your customers they will change their viewing habits yes even Rangers supporters, as the JG era showed.

Seems to sum up the approach of many for me. Hell, I never vote for anybody, I always vote against. ~W.C. Fields

Personally I think Ally lacks any man management skills that added to his obvious lack of tactical nous makes him for me not fit for The Rangers job, IMHO of course.

Really, I can't think of one previous Rangers manager who would agree with you, perhaps you just have lower expectations of how past and present managers should and should have represented the great institution that is The Rangers, why you brought fans into your weak argument which is about the manager is a mystery.

Just another slipping of standards within our great club that started with players sloppy dress and has now affected the manager, it is not and never has been the class that one would attribute to our historical club and managers gone by, it is more the dressage of tinks and ****s.

Zeus had no part in the flotation of Man U Barclays did. Imran Ahmed was a very junior pen pusher at that time with Barclays.

The victors write history, sort of makes it a moot point for the Scotland team, Bobby Brown's never to be surpassed day of glory apart, Sat 15 Apr 1967 England 2 Scotland 3.

Duff and Phelps dismissed Whyte as an irrelevance on more than one occasion, things are about to get very interesting I would hazard and perhaps very uncomfortable for the administrators, who appear to also think that properly and legally lodged asset transfers are of no account.

Whyte legally transferred all the assets of The Rangers FC Group Limited to Liberty Corporate Ltd by use of form MG01, the administrators have never attempted to challenge this document.

You really couldn't make it up, a super league in one of the most volatile regions on the planet.

If Lord Hodge signs off on Duff and Phelps and not until then we can breathe a lot easier, people seem to be unaware that the on-going is how Whyte makes a very good living at other peoples expense. Whyte is a lot of things a victim or a court jester is neither.

When all is said and done it is the fans of any and all clubs who are left to pick up the pieces and salvage what they can once the alleged experts have made a mess of everything, rather like the country when those responsible for our country's present plight are living it high on the hog and being rewarded for failure despite their incompetency. Green won't be seeing any of my money until I see something more substantial than moonbeams.
