The notion that as corrupt an organisation as UEFA will give two effs about a newspaper advert concerning dodgy goings on in our little footballing backwater is laughable.

Really?
Maybe just give them the chance to show how they've upped their game, by dragging a minor associated member across the coals...

There's certainly a chance that nothing will come of it. But nobody can say that people didn't at least try to raise the awareness. Hopefully this is just the beginning of the pressure.

I wonder if they have set themselves a target for new season book holders, and the additional revenue that comes with it?

To justify Rodgers appointment, they had budgeted on selling 44,000 books. After the massive positive reaction to the appointment, they are hoping that may go to 46-47,000 ish. I think that's realistic, and that we may draw in another 5-10,000 day trippers depending on the opposition.
The bit about his job being to ensure the Lisbon Lions Upper wasn't redundant: It felt like a conspicuous comment both in his press conference and when he was speaking to the supporters. I could agree it could maybe be a throw away comment if he referred to it once, but he did it twice. Like it had come up during his discussions for the job, and maybe also in any advance briefing for yesterday's press. I'm not sure why you would mention it otherwise.

47,000 would not be too shabby at all if they've been sat around 40,000.
I'd definitely say it came up in discussions for the job - we had closed part of the top tier of our stadium because we couldn't fill it. That is a pretty big deal when you talk about the overall current state of the club which I'm sure Rodgers was asking about, same as he'd have asked about level of investment he could expect.

The pressure should be from the club.

Think Celtic are quietly involved in this. The ideal scenario is UEFA get involved and approach Celtic for their take on all this, then if it leads to bringing down in SFA and hurting the huns eg European bans, then Celtic don't have their paws all over this. Have the Resolution 12 guys not been liaising with the club on this matter?

Ps I hope that wee incident at the semi-final has pissed Dermot off enough to really go for the jugular

SFA answered Resolution 12 query on Rangers Euro licence, says Regan

Grant Russell

The Scottish FA chief exec says group accepted explanation of "Resolution 12" issue.


Scottish FA chief executive Stewart Regan has said the governing body acted correctly in awarding Rangers a licence to play European football in 2011 and that questions on the process have been answered.

A group of Celtic shareholders, known as 'the requisitioners' after a request put to the Celtic board at their AGM in 2013, requested that the club investigate the circumstances that lead to the licence being granted and have campaigned for answers in recent years.

It is the latest step in a campaign - known as Resolution 12 - to challenge the decision-making process.

Regan said that questions on the Scottish FA's actions had been answered, that the requisitioners had been satisfied with the response and any further questions should be directed at UEFA.

He said: "There has been a reply. We've been in dialogue with Celtic Football Club on the matter.

"My understanding is that the requisitioners have accepted that they have no issues with the granting of the licence to Rangers in 2011 .

"What they do have an issue with is the monitoring period immediately following that licence in March 2011.

"Our position on that is that we have complied with UEFA requirements in the period immediately following March 2011 and clearly if there is still an issue with the requisitioners then that's for them to take up with UEFA.

"We've said if they do that then we'll fully cooperate and comply with any requests for information from UEFA and we've provided details at UEFA for the requisitioners to make contact.

"So we believe that the matter has been communicated to those involved and they will deal with it as they see fit."

The questions centred on whether the Ibrox side fully disclosed the details of an unpaid tax bill to HM Revenue and Customs.

UEFA rules demand participants in the Champions and Europa Leagues declare any "overdue payables" to the taxman, with details on whether there is a commitment to repay amounts, or a dispute over any bill.


The Ibrox side, as the previous season's SPL winners, entered the Champions League at the third qualifying round stage on the champions path.

After defeat to Malmo, Ally McCoist's side then dropped into the play-off phase of the Europa League, losing to Maribor.

Celtic subsequently played in the Europa League, losing to Sion before the Swiss side were made to forfeit the tie after fielding ineligible players. Neil Lennon's team then went on to play in the group stage.

Hearts and Dundee United were both eliminated in the early stages of the Europa League.

STV attempted to speak to Celtic secretary Michael Nicholson but he declined to comment on whether Celtic were actively involved in investigating the decision or if the club had written to UEFA.

UEFA have failed to respond to numerous emails from STV over the past two weeks seeking clarity on whether they are investigating.
