What’s done is done

So the “Big Tax Case” has been settled in the way we all probably expected, victory for HMRC.

Other clubs may fear the consequenc­es but what of Rangers? The debate about old club and new club is great ammunition to goad their fans, but for some it is more than that, and the question of which club was liquidated and which has the history and the trophies is real.

The other issue is if Old Rangers broke the tax laws should they lose trophies won in that period? We all have opinions but some also have agendas. If the SFA stripped them of cups, no trophy would be awarded but SPL titles could in theory remove all RFC results and see who would win. For me what’s done is done and risking legal action helps no one.
