    You concentrate on The big one - The Harry Ramsdens (I'll give you a blue spot for that love) Ramsden Memorial Trophy for Diddy Clubs.

    It's not really that we are not eligible Rogue. We have decided to boycott it for a few years as a protest about the treatment of gays in Russia. As a forward thinking humanitarian club that celebrates diversity we decided it was apt. Perhaps your mob should join us in the interests of solidarity. Start a petition and send it to Pete. I urge you.

    PS Don't play Sun City.

    Do you really not know RL ?

    It's got to do with having to post three sets of annual accounts .

    It's not accounts. To be eligible the rules state the club must have been a member of their national association for 3 years. It's unclear as yet as to whether Rangers membership is regarded as continuous or whether there was a break at oldco's liquidation.

    As far as I'm aware there is nothing unclear about it . Rangers cannot compete in European competition until they post those accounts . That has always been the case since liquidation and nothing has changed in the meantime .

    Thems the rules .

    I was wondering, I heard a bit on the radio/podcast saying a definitive answer was still awaited from the sfa ..... who I think will just be hoping that they dont have to issue a definitive decision ie - rangers dont win the cup and that gets them out of jail
