Don't know what shiels end game is but I wish he'd just f*ck off. Normally I can be more descriptive in opinion but reading the pathetic comments today it's either all a publicity stunt to shy away from the fact he's a very poor manager or wangling his way to Ipox. Best suited I think. Fecking asswipe. Sorry ed for the expletives but raging. Stevo dundee

Neil Lennon phones Ally McCoist and says, “Awright Ally, I'm having a party on Saturday, fancy coming?” Ally replies, “I can't manage, Neil.

I have just been looking at the Rangers wikipedia page and it is full of errors. Many have probably looked and are confused like me but it appears as if it has been written by SDM and his minions. The history all there, the spin, and to my mind downright lies and a deliberate policy of deception. what are the rules regarding editing and posting and how can they claim such nonsense when it is clear they are dead? Anyone got any thoughts on how to fix this? Sopotcelt.

nothing to do with the other night at firhill, just read leggless & mcturdo. and these two are the voice of the real sevco fans. most of them echo the inane, sometimes insane ramblings of this pair.
we have just had a year of no games against this bunch of bigots. I don't miss them.
i have always wanted them to come back, if only for the sake of my brother and a few bear friends. you know what. no more.
i really hope they die { again } and this time don't come back. scotland, and scottish football is a better place without them . shammy

Today is the first of May. The cut off for submitting audited accounts to the SFA has now passed. Have sevco adhered to this rule? If not they will be unable to compete in the Scottish Cup next season. This is because winning the cup offers the chance to qualify for Europe, and UEFA rules dictate audited accounts are needed to partake in their tournaments.

Now, that's the bleedin obvious out the way, but the questions remain. As we all know, sevco have not submitted audited accounts for three years, so why have they been allowed to compete in the Scottish Cup? Which brings up the question, are the SFA actually fit for purpose? The rules are laid out. The only thing they have to do is make sure clubs follow them. that's there only job, and very lucrative it is.

Since rangers entered administration, and subsequent liquidation, the SFA has bent over backwards to help them. Forget the sevconian mantra of kicking them when they were down, it has in fact been the complete opposite. From the invention of a temporary licence, from a brand new club with no accounts, to the laughable slap on the wrists to Green and sneaky, it has been a sickening display of cowardice.

My big problem however is this. What are Celtic playing at? We all know the situation with the audited accounts so I am sure our people do. The same applies to the licence nonsense. Why are we not asking tough questions of the SFA? Through good fiscal management and a prudent signing policy we are in a strong position. Why should we sit back and let a new club have an easy ride? Worse still is the fact they are allowed to masquerade as the liquidated club, who were guilty of outrageous levels of debt, and try to continue on their way.

Sadly it seems as if we want them back. Now that's fair enough if your a bean counter. There is more cash to be gained with them here, that is undeniable. But we are strong at the moment, we need to be asking questions. We need to shine a spotlight on a corrupt, cheating, governing body who have never helped our club. Celtic should compile a list of questions and demand they are answered. We, the supporters, should demand this, if we don't what have we become? We will have become as pro sevco as the SFA. How about these;

#1 Why is Campbell Ogilvie, an EBT recipient and ex rangers director, still in place when he is hopelessly conflicted?
#2 Why, after going to the trouble of organising the LNS enquiry, was Sandy Bryson allowed to give evidence that made his employers, the SFA, look foolish?
#3 Why have rangers/sevco been allowed to compete in the Scottish cup without meeting the required criteria, audited accounts?
#4 Who decided to invent a temporary licence to allow a new club to start a season and is this temporary licence still valid? Is it the same parson who told the ECA that the club had not changed and was the same entity as a club BEING LIQUIDATED

Finally the most important question. Why is the 'five point plan', agreed with Green, being kept secret? This is a disgrace. Just what is in this document? I don't think, as a Celtic supporter, it is unrealistic to expect my club to ask these on behalf of our fans. If they do not start to bare their teeth on these matters a lot of fans are going to get agitated. green jhedi

Just been reading in the peper this morning that Hately and that old goalkeeper with weight problems were giving a media conference yesterday, probably from Murray Park.
Their two main issues were that Scottish football is totally doomed and will crash unless SEVCO is allowed straight into SPL. And that sporting integrity and sporting merit should be binned.
The other point is that Nacho Novo at 34 should be brought back as he's fighting relegation at the bottom of Spanish Div2. Novo played for six years 2004-2010 during the height of the EBT SPL cheating years, when Novos side contract wasn't declared, making him illegally registered with the SFA and SPL.
The fact Novo signed up to this social tax avoidance depriving Scottish taxpayers of much needed revenue, in my mind, makes him reprehensible. He should never be allowed back in the country to work here unless he coughs up our tax.
