The tit for tat show that has been on display between the SPFL and the Ibrox club for the past 48 hours is a mix of cringy embarrassment and must watch car crash television. Mostly it is embarrassing. The latest statement from the Ibrox club plunges Scottish football deeper into the murky waters as there are no clear signs of this war of useless words ending.
Remarkably, the Ibrox club want loans dished out, giving their financial reports for the last few years who in their right mind would loan them money? They have also taken up the baton to defend the member clubs. What they fail to recognise is that clubs in all divisions voted overwhelmingly to end the season. Only a handful of clubs voted against the proposal yet the Rangers statement pretends it is acting on behalf of all the SPFL clubs.
The Statement reads
“Rangers Company secretary, James Blair, has had several email exchanges with the SPFL legal adviser, Rod McKenzie.
“Remarkably, we have learned from an email received from Mr McKenzie that our proposed resolution is deemed unnecessary because the SPFL board already has the authority to provide loans to member clubs which can be exercised by the SPFL at any time.
“The Inverness CEO, Scot Gardiner, confirmed on national radio yesterday that SPFL representatives made it clear on several conference calls that it was necessary to approve the SPFL resolution in order to release funds which would relieve the financial hardship being experienced by many clubs.
“Member clubs will be shocked to learn this is not the case and any club facing short term financial difficulties should request a loan from the SPFL immediately.
“Our resolution was never intended to release end of season fee payments but instead to provide loans as an advance on such payments. It is now apparent that this is already within the power of the SPFL. This provides further evidence that an independent investigation is urgently required.”

Let’s hope a way can be found to finish the games off so the crazy can be silenced. It would be interesting to stick a microphone to Peter Lawwell or Neil Lennon for their opinion on all this but they are boxing clever by watching this one from the sidelines.
The idiots are now running the ipox asylum. We know they are bigots, and this proves they are bigoted. Everyone is wrong, the only people correct is the dopes at the asylum. They will lie and cheat their way through the sh1t they stir up.
Like their team, they cheat their way through every 90+ minutes of football. Take McGreegor, the guy is a raving lunatic. Eyes bulging and slobbering at the referees. Arfield is a nonce. Played for no one in any standing, a badge kisser, and a cheat. Every one of them leaves the boot in when tackling. They play like rabid dogs, (sorry rabid dogs). They grab players, grab shirts, dive near the box, they can’t even take a free-kick where they should. They are without doubt the scum of Scottish football. I pray this shower of sh1t go bust and die forever, never to return.
