  1. So no one is even considering making up the 5points for second place? We have at least as much chance of catching rangers as utd do of catching us.

     

    I doubt Rangers will lose to St. Johnstone in their final game.

  2. Outstanding result and now on the verge of an incredible achievement!

     

    However can Stuart McCall please refrain from his patter that we could be in Champions League by "default"!His old club have broken rules and rightly been punished,MFC have done everything by the book,if that means champions league entry then fantastic.

     

    I think all he was trying to say was that it's finishing 3rd that is a great achievement regardless of whether the reward for that is Europa Cup or Champions League.

  3. Stilll awake and have seen the goal on the tv now..... it just me or was big higgy as cool as he looked after he finished it when he sauntered twds the camera.......or was it a bit lucky!!! ( if so who cares!).

     

    No luck involved from what I saw. Higgy has a great touch and he has scored a few goals by passing them into the back of the net.

  4. It's always easier to play catch-up than lead from the front. If Utd. or Saints get within a point or two, they will have to start dealing with the pressure too and it's a whole new ball game.

     

    I'd much rather be 5 points ahead than 5 points behind right now, and I think we will do it.

     

    Nae bother :popcorn:

  5. Its very easy for us fans to want maximum punishment of rangers but we dont run the club, we dont pay the players, coaches, office staff& tea ladies! We are not the ones who have to make a business decision that will secure the best interests of the club as a viable entity going forward!

     

    Now we have the Well Society, we should be the ones involved in such a business decision. So give us the facts and let us decide.

  6. nice reward for the players busting us a gut to get us to the position we are in today, reduced terms!

     

    So yet again we have a thread discussing players moving on or having to accept reduced terms and the squad being shrunk again.

     

    Just because we discuss it, doesn't mean it's true. And I'm 100% sure that 99% of what is written on here is 110% guff.

  7. If they are found not guilty of those issues then why would we worry - not guilty in a court of law is good enough for me. All the punishment they are suffering so far is for going into administration and other issues where the SFA have found them guilty - still good enough for me!

     

    All people are asking is that when found guilty, the punishment fits the crime.......

     

    Yes, but the question was about newco allowed back in the SPL. With appeals etc. the tax cases will likely be rumbling on years after the vote on any newco so we won't know the verdicts on the alleged crimes until long after the newco votes takes place.

     

    Or Rangers might come to a settlement with HMRC and pay them without admission of guilt. How does that affect punishment?

  8. Part of the problem is that the SFA and SPL know the answer to part of that but are waiting for HMRC to provide them an 'excuse' to act.

     

    I even think Rangers have conceded that in terms of the tax case they're goosed.

     

    I agree with that. My problem is that all this newco malarky (if it happens) will take place long before we hear the out come of the tax cases in particular. It's such a mess right now, I'm not sure what my preferred sanctions would be. If the SPL is serious about multiple year point deductions, stripping of 75% of revenues, change of voting structure, and maybe revocation of a Euro license for 2 or 3 years, I could live with that *if* administration/newco was all we were dealing with.

     

    If it is shown that there was years (or decades) of systematic cheating, I'd want newco kicked out the league.

  9. The thing for me is it's not the debt or the going into administration. That could happen to anyone.

     

    It's the decades of systematic cheating with player contracts and tax avoidance to gain a competitive advantage.

     

    Allegedly of course.

     

    And it's the 'allegedly' that is one of the issues.

     

    What if Rangers form newco in June and are voted back into the SPL and subsequently found not guilty of any tax avoidance or player contract fiddling?

     

    Are people OK with that?

  10. Forget what other teams will or won't do,we have our destiny in our own hands and if we fail its our own fault.

     

    Exactly. Like I said before the St. Johnstone game, I'd much rather be in our position than Dundee Utd's position. All we need to be worrying about is winning our own games and 3rd position will be ours.

     

    You can't ask for more than being in control of your own fate.

  11. So the last three months is meaningless yet you are comparing their last four games against, not our last four games, but the opposition and get it wrong when we couldn't beat Hibs two weeks ago? Two of the four teams you mentioned dumped us out of both Cups but that is equally as irrelevant.

     

    Momentum is everything at this stage of the season. They have it. We don't.

     

    Do they still have it?

     

    Just sayin' like.
