    Quote me a larger scandal in European football than a club refusing to pay the taxes and NI and VAT due and in doing so depriving pensioners, disabled persons, police, forces, hospitals, those in benefits, schools of much needed funds in these harsh economic times, when according to BBC SCOTLAND teachers are having to buy stationary for their students.

    Match fixing in Italy is a bigger scandal.

    I don't think so.

    The SFA verdict said "Only match-fixing in its various forms might be a more serious breach" with regards to the Rangers carry on last season. If you add to that their previous decade of tax evasion and dual contracts (which they will be found guilty of). Subsequent to that they went bust leaving massive debts,. including significant football ones. They then started up a new club and are pretending to be the same one.

    I think that is a bigger scandal. Plus, Wedge the Wacist is incapable of justifying his little barbs because he is a dopey **** that doesn't know what "incorporated" means.

    Mental isn't it? Every **** skips as much tax as they can, Gers have been scooped by the looks of it so **** one for them. I was up in my Da's last week and there was a pile of receipts and other **** he was getting ready for his accountant. 75% of it was BS. The sly old **** had too full tank loads of petrol for having to drive to Cork for work related stuff twice in a month. He hasn't been to Cork in about 10 years.

    The Rangers episode has given me some laughs, from Bomber Broon on the steps of Grayskull to Whytie having the biggest brass balls in the world but all the talk of starving old Grannies in their freezing homes is pish ffs.

    I see his answer. I still don't know why it is way over the top. It is accurate.

    Yeah... ok! It is wholly accurate

    Rangers going bust is responsible for killing pensioners, shutting down schools, cutting police numbers, depriving disabled people of benefits!

    The point made is way over the top!

    ****e ye would read in the Hotline!

    he didn't say that. He said "deprived". Which of course it did. I accept it is rather emotive and very tabloid esque in presentation but it is accurate. What you have done is then to layer that quote and take it to the Nth degree.

    The budgets for Health, benefits etc would be exactly the same had Rangers paid their Tax Rebel.

    Get a grip Rebel, it was melodramatic pish. Stuff about killing pensioners. <doh>

    It's a football forum, no Arthur Scargill rallying the miners against the Tory government.
