Is that Jamie Smurfy? This is what happens when you don't pay the face painter. Literally run like a circus, so it's appropriate.

If Phil's letter is genuine the football authorities have a duty of care to investigate this.
When I saw it, my first thought was, "Well, that looks real..." I don't have contact with auditors - is it common practice for them to sign letters with the name of the company and not the person signature of the person who wrote the letter? I say shenanigans. Common practice where a partner signs on behalf of the firm.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
When auditors resign from a company I think they are obliged to tell their successors of the reason for their resignation. I wonder if Campbell Dallas knew about this before they accepted the job.
Campbell Dallas sounds like a uberhun referee I think Phil is flagging the hun auditor angle now for a reason. Deloittes are a global business. They simply would not accept hun shenanigans. Any nonsense and sevco are binned. Which is what happened in 2015. Campbell Dallas are a decent local firm. 10 years ago, the chance of getting the gig to audit the hun would have been a wet dream. 3 years ago, CD should have told sevco to eff off, but sadly, in some misty eyed nostalgic way, they agreed to take on the hun gig. I'm certain they have regretted this ever since. Campbell Dallas are now looking at the recent hun financial performance from an audit point of view. As auditors, they have to comment on last year's financials. On the back of 5 years losses and ongoing failures in management, the hun accounts are an utter shambles. CD also have to consider the future financial implications of sevco shambolicness. Dave King has repeatedly stated that sevco can only achieve financial viability via Champions League participation through to Group stages. There is no actual real world possibility of this happening. In the very near future, Campbell Dallas, as auditors of the hun, will need to put this problem in very clear written reports. As a global accountancy firm, Deloittes could bin the hun as a client without a backward glance. CD's problems with this issue are a bit closer to home. So guess what has happened.... Campbell Dallas has merged (been taken over) by an outfit from down south, Baldwins Group. It might be possible that the new guys don't feel any kind of local affinity/obligation to put any Vaseline on the lense when looking at the hun books. Dave's nonsense strategy of CL loot simply doesn't stack up. The new hun Auditors may be about to point this out.

Can anyone really see McGinn signing for the huns?
Not if he wants paid, no. Swap a couple of letters about and bounce back a few years...
Sitting in Da Vincis in Livingston where a certain Neil McCann was a regular as was 2-3 other Hearts/Celtic/Hibs players, when the bold bhoy Neil signed for Rangers I asked him WTF he was doing knowing his footballing and other allegiances, he replied big man I am on £2k a week with Hearts and Rangers are offering me 6 times that plus bonuses for a 3 year deal so my family and their family is made for life.
So I guess everyone (or some) has their price.

Shouldn't even need investigated, the SFA are incapable though.
If it is true they must take action. Just seems to be a collection of gangsters involved with Rangers*, and there's absolutely no way they can just let this go. Surely upon request, The Rangers International Club should release that document under the freedom of information act.

There is more chance of Shergar winning this year's Derby than John McGinn signing for the huns.

They said the GASL was a fit and proper person to run a Scottish football club. They're not fit for purpose.
Why the concern about ‘fit and proper’ the more corrupt they are the better. No concern, I'm glad they allowed him, just meaning that I've no faith in the SFA to apply the rules properly when it comes to sevco.

McCann was offered more by the huns than any other club that wanted to sign him .
McGinn will be getting offered much more by other clubs than the huns can pay him.

BFDJ saying he can't see McGinn signing but I think this bit ill please the Hun Horde, "However, caretaker boss Jimmy Nicholl says Gerrard might only make ‘three of four’ signings if the current pool of players can impress the new boss".
JOG ON Rangers legend Derek Johnstone says there is ‘no chance’ Hibs ace John McGinn will go to Ibrox because of his Celtic background According to reports, the Light Blues are looking to make a move for the 23-year old as new boss Steven Gerrard looks to rebuild the side
Spoiler: click to toggle By Chris Doyle DEREK JOHNSTONE says there is ‘no chance’ John McGinn will sign for Rangers. Reports claim that the Hibs star is a transfer target for Steven Gerrard this summer. But Rangers legend, Johnstone, has ruled out the possibility of the 23-year old coming to Ibrox because of his Celtic background. McGinn’s, grandfather Jack, is an ex-Hoops’ chairman and Johnstone feels that his family’s support for Celtic will be a huge factor in his potential decision. Talking on Superscoreboard, he said: “He’s got pace, he’s box-to-box, he can pass the ball. He can score goals, take free-kicks. “For me, he is a wonderful player. “But I don’t think he will go to Rangers, that is for sure. “We are all aware his whole family are Celtic, his grandfather Jack McGinn, is an ex-chairman of Celtic. “I don’t think there is any chance of that happening” “Celtic may well be interested, Scott Brown only has a couple of years left. “I know they are different types of players, but he is a midfielder that would do a job for Celtic. “If I was him, if there is anyone in the top six or top eight in the Premier League looking at him, I would go down there.” Gerrard will become Gers boss on June 1 – and is expected to make wholesale changes with NINE players set to leave Ibrox. However, caretaker boss Jimmy Nicholl says Gerrard might only make ‘three of four’ signings if the current pool of players can impress the new boss. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2629384/rangers-derek-johnstone-hibs-john-mcginn-celtic-transfers/

Wee Barry still believes that there will be "more investment" coming into rangers to help Gerrard and "As far as I’m concerned second’s not acceptable for Rangers. That said, when you look at all the turmoil at Ibrox this season, I would be absolutely delighted with second place".
Rangers won't get near Celtic with £6m and Steven Gerrard has to have been told more money is coming - Ferguson Barry Ferguson insists Dave King needs to start acting and stop talking to ensure the new Ibrox boss has the funds to mount a real challenge to Brendan Rodgers' side.
Spoiler: click to toggle ByBarry Ferguson It wasn’t quite the big announcement we expected. Like most Rangers fans I thought Dave King’s big sitdown with the media on Monday was going to be news of some kind of major investment. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be from him or outside sources but there was an expectation it would be a lot more than just an update on a share issue to raise an extra £6million. Don’t get men wrong, that money will be useful, especially when you chuck in the cash from season ticket sales, the new merchandise deal and maybe the odd sale or two of players. But realistically it’s not going to generate the funds needed to go toe to toe with Celtic. That said, I do believe there will be more money on the way. There’s no chance Steven Gerrard has not been given certain assurances he will get proper backing in the transfer market. There will be something in the pipeline they are working on because the type of guy Gerrard seems to be, he wouldn’t have accepted the job if he didn’t fancy a proper crack at it. We’re only at the second week in May so there is still time. King threw a few grenades in last week and it makes interesting headlines. But it’s actions that are required at Rangers rather than words. King will surely know himself the side needs strengthened in every department. Gerrard needs to start with the spine of the team and build out from there. I’ve got to say I was hugely impressed by Gerrard at his unveiling. There was a stature and aura around him and he was note perfect with everything he said. This is a guy who has worked under severe pressure and huge demands all of his career and when he was asked about coping with massive scrutiny at Rangers he said, ‘Bring it on’. That’ll do for me. He’s got a big job on his hands but he sounds like he’s up for it. The challenge for the players already at the club is to show they deserve to be part of it. There’s some of the squad worth keeping and others that will more on. I think the likes of Jamie Murphy have shown they would be worth turning in to permanent deals and the same goes for Jason Cummings. He’s been a bit stop-start since he arrived but you can see his qualities and he’s the kind of player you’d want in the squad. Tuesday night at Pittodrie ended the debate about Ross McCrorie’s best position. He’s had his struggles at centre-half but I really like him in the middle of the park. He brings an energy and he’s got a presence. The young lad was superb in the second half against Aberdeen and he really dragged Rangers back in to the game. His goal summed up his display. McCrorie was the one man who was determined to make that ball his and that kind of desire won’t have gone unnoticed by the new management team. I’m sure he has a big future at the club and in general I’m already excited about next season and looking forward to seeing the changes Gerrard makes. This campaign is not done yet though. I must admit, saying second place is an achievement is something that sticks in my throat. As far as I’m concerned second’s not acceptable for Rangers. That said, when you look at all the turmoil at Ibrox this season, I would be absolutely delighted with second place. It’s strange to even say it because it was always about being No.1 for me but you have to take in all that’s gone on this year. Rangers are guaranteed of Europe and to finish runner-up would be the icing on the cake. Winning at Easter Road would allow the club to close the book on a difficult season and go in to the summer on a positive note. That’s what I would be saying if I was in that Rangers dressing room this weekend. Go out and finish on a high. I would be ready to go to war against Hibs. Forget about what’s happened in the past or what is going on elsewhere. You’d fancy Celtic to beat Aberdeen so it will be up to them to go out and grab the three points. It will be interesting to see the reaction from them after Neil Lennon tore strips off them in midweek. Hibs have done brilliantly this season but that was probably the worst I’ve seen them this season. It could go one of two ways. They might go out all guns blazing or they could down tools. Rangers need to take care of their side regardless but the challenge is to go out with a bang and then everyone can look forward to a watching Steven Gerrard get to work over the summer. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rangers-wont-near-celtic-6m-12520577

If Phil's letter is genuine the football authorities have a duty of care to investigate this.
Will never happen Exactly.
I was talking to a guy last weekend who is totally unconnected with Rangers and we were discussing them in the context of Gerrard being appointed. He does however have a close friend who was a non-executive director there. His friend said he had never come across such skullduggery as went on at Ibrox and was genuinely shocked at the levels of incompetence, stating that to this day he couldn’t even begin to disclose some of the shenanigans.
No surprise to me what’s contained in that letter.

Aside from the fact he's a Celtic fan* they couldn't afford the transfer fee.
Wouldn't rule anything out based on that alone these days but when your granda is the former chairman of the club you're fairly steeped in it. For once I think BFDJ might be right about something.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. BFDJ may also be of a mind that signing McGinn, given his provenance, is a bad thing (even if the huns could afford him which they can’t).
