‘Blue’ pound ruled

Since the collapse and reincarnation of Rangers in 2012 all decisions have been made in interest of one thing: money. From the botched attempt to parachute the reformed club into the Championship, to the terms of reference of the LNS enquiry and the five-way agreement, the “blue” pound was seemingly worth more than others.

The ruling that Rangers’ use of EBTS was illegal means 14 trophies were won and 1.8 million tickets sold for games in which players were illegally and deliberately mis-registered. Those who administered that scheme are still involved in the game and those who have turned a blind eye are also sweeping it under the carpet.

For this period to be correctly recorded the game must take notice of not just the blue pound. Transparency is the only justice.
