If the embargo is temporarily lifted and rfc sign players and play them, then the final court case goes against them, then they will be deemed to have lost every game by 3-0 in which they played these players. Big risk to take.
Also means that SFA may have to return to the original punishment which is banishment from the League.
Fifa will force SFA to take any punishment as far as they can, because the Fifa regs say that a national association MUST take action against a club which involves the civil courts.
Clark of Duff etc claims they did not know about the Fifa ban on civil courts. Easily believable given their performance so far.
