I know the truth is kryptonite to celtic fans but Rangers were fined when they went into administration, when a CVA was still a possibility before it was torpedoed by a mythical tax bill for perfectly legal EBT's.

Their punishment for transferring the assets to a new company was to start in SFL3 and to accept the illegal transfer ban.

Thus hearts should be hit with the same punishments for failing to pay taxes, failing to pay players, being owned by a conman, manipulating their finances to relegate Dundee and going into administration.

There's no point in digging up a corpse to hang it again.

Never tried that, but willing to give it a go

You'll be able to try it on your own team soon enough. I hear tomorrow might have some 'interesting' news.

I didn't like the new top when I first saw it, however now I've actually seen it for real and on someone I really like it.

Nah it'll be great with bookies paying out on winners before a ball is kicked, a dramatic race to see who can go into admin first and the thrilling race to play hearts and grab three points off them before they disappear down to the lowland league mid season.

Possibly the lemmings have decided that merging with the SPL when they are withholding details of how bad their financial situation is might not be the best idea.

Moves to ratify Scottish football's new single league body have been delayed after SFL clubs failed to reach an immediate decision on merging with the Scottish Premier League.

Representative from 30 clubs arrived early at Hampden on Thursday and were expected to rubber stamp the creation of the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL)

However SFL sides, including Annan Athletic, have now expressed doubts over the financial implications of the new set-up after studying due diligence.

Yeah it's all been amazing without the only show in town. SPL fans said they would rather their teams died than help Rangers. It looks like their wish might come true.

How did sell out Saturday work for you? In fact how did being without Rangers work for you? You could ask BDO who are busy prepping the liquidation paperwork whilst begging Wonga for a payday loan to try and get the team through another week.

Fine? Obviously your definition of fine varies from most people. Personally having a team on the edge of oblivion is pretty far from fine in my books.

I suppose to you losing an arm would be just a flesh wound? Contracting smallpox would be just a little infection?
