forlanssister 3,050 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Di Stefano puts in his tuppence worth: GIOVANNI DI STEFANO 'THE DEVILS ADVOKAT' SET TO INTERVENE IN EBT HEARING IN NOVEMBER Giovanni Di Stefano 'The Devils Advokat' and a shareholder in Rangers Football Club PLC (in administration) is set to intervene in the hearing set out by the Scottish SPL investigating the EBT matter at Rangers Football Club. In a strongly worded letter Di Stefano made clear that the whole matter was "wholly misconceived" and he supported the stance taken by Charles Green in refusing to recognise the SPL Commission. The letter faxed to the SPL and the SFA states as follows: "I refer to my previous correspondence with regard to the above and related matters. I note with some concern that the SPL has set a date for a ‘hearing’ on of Employee Benefit Trust (EBT) transactions to Rangers players from 2000 to 2011 and potential violations of SPL Rules. I note also that your ‘commission’ has issued directions including “both Oldco and Newco” to file documents they intend to rely upon by 1st November 2012. Leaving quite aside that the Statute Limitations permits only 6 years in any civil matter it seems to me that the whole question of the SPL establishing a ‘Commission’ whilst RFC PLC is in administration is wholly misconceived. I am a shareholder of RFC PLC and as such herein serve you my intention to be heard in pro per and make the necessary submissions without prejudice to any other rights. I require from you the specific allegations and a full set of documents that the SPL rely upon in this matter. In the event I do not receive such or am precluded please accept this letter as a formal protocol letter for Judicial Review. I cannot but emphasize that the establishment of a Commission in the manner prescribed is wholly misconceived. I fully support the view adopted by Charles Green Esq. on behalf of the ‘Newco’ in that his company is not, cannot, be effected in anyway by any action taken by the SPL. The misconception and complete waste of time, resources and public image of Scottish football in my view raises the question of the SPL per se bringing the game into disrepute. It is one matter if the SPL sought a commission to investigate all clubs during the past six years but it is wholly discriminatory and prejudicial to target simply RFC PLC." Speaking from London Di Stefano said "This is wholly absurd and clearly targeting individually one club RFC PLC. As a shareholder I will attend solely on a without prejudice basis. You really need a search party to find anything remotely contrary to the SPL rules that a whole heap of others have not done including the SPL themselves. I will ask the payments made to certain individuals at the SPL. Its best they let sleeping dogs die their own natural death rather than try and compound matters for RFC PLC. One thing though it is certain that RFC PLC cannot be liquidated whilst these kind of proceedings are ongoing. The SPL should simply let the clubs now get on with football. All this is affecting the game and the Scottish National team." The SPL made no comment. http://www.onlinepublishingcompany.info/content/sitenewsreadmore/infobox/news/template/default/active_id/1458 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bluenose80 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I hope you're right dB, but from this viewpoint I can't see his involvement doing anything but making things worse. Cue Jehovah photo from 'Life of Brian' I don't know about that Andy the more people we have highlighting the SPL's vendetta against us the better. The more they are put out in the open the less they can hide from the truth. Screwball he may be but its better to be on the screwball's side than standing against him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Amokachi 0 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 There's a lot of thick supporters out there when you see how favorable GDS's involvement is regarded. He already drove one club to the wall. A complete and utter crook. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
