stewarty 1,876 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Did Charles Green not say they had signed an "irrevocable contract" I think it is binding, yes. Can't remember the exact wording though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,876 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 AN SFA independent appeals panel has this evening upheld a decision to impose a 12-month transfer embargo on the club. Duff and Phelps, administrators of Rangers Football Club, issued the following statement tonight. Paul Clark, joint administrator, said: "The decision by the appellate tribunal to uphold the sanction, namely the suspension of registration of players for one year, is not competent in the view of the Club and its legal advisers. "Such a sanction was not available to the tribunal and should not have been imposed and it is the intention of the Club to challenge the determination. "The Club will consider seeking review of this most disappointing decision and it is a matter of regret that the certainty and finality Rangers sought on this matter has not been achieved. Everyone at Rangers is bitterly disappointed and dismayed at this outcome." Charles Green, who leads a consortium purchasing the Club, said: "Our group went into the purchase of the Club with this sanction in place but we hoped the decision would at least be commuted. We fully support the Club as it considers an appeal against this latest decision." Sandy Jardine, spokesman for the Rangers Fans Fighting Fund, added: "Rangers supporters will be shocked and bitterly disappointed by this decision and will find it hard to take that the Club has been so heavily punished for the actions of individuals." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GovanAllan 0 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 @BBCchrismclaug: #Rangers statement due shortly. It's expected they will continue to fight the decision. Perhaps outwith football authorities. Drag the bastards through every court in the land, lets see how Regan likes it when journalists who aren't Liewell puppets start shining a light into that shit hole we call Hampden. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does this mean? Silly question but have the SFA broke there own rules and made up a punishment? What was the maximum punishment they could inflict for a breach of this sort? Was it just the fine I wonder? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
