    So what by have Bilic and Klinsmann done to make them worthy? Bilic just got sacked with only a 38% win record. I'd say O'Neill getting N Ireland to the Euros and a whisker away from the World Cup is way better than what Bilic and Klinsmann have achieved.

     

    What had O Neill done worthy to metit the NI job?Managing Brechin City and Shamrock Rovers

    No thanks. I don’t really fancy England’s sloppy seconds. 

    If England deemed his actions as a sackable offence then he’s not a fit and proper person as far as the Scotland job is concerned in my opinion.

    Sad as a nation that we are so divided that Ibrox and Parkhead can sell out every second week but Hampden can’t. We really are becoming more and more like Northern Ireland the country all the time.

    I'm not a huge Lawwell fan, there's something about him I'm not sure about.

    But he is bang on the money on this issue.

    Rangers cheated and gained a massive advantage on the pitch as a direct result of that cheating. I see no way in which that can be seriously disputed by anyone other than those who have a vested interest. As an absolute minimum there is a case to answer.

    The abject failure of the SFA to support an investigation is nothing other than a severe dereliction of duty. To hide behind the supposed damage to Scottish football's reputation that would occur by "raking over the coals" as they rather awkwardly put it is embarrassing and naive in the extreme.

    It is a long standing principle of any justice system within organisations that any potential wrongdoing must be investigated thoroughly and consequences brought to bear where wrongdoing is found to have taken place, no matter how long it takes, no matter what else may be dredged up in the process and no matter the damage to the reputation of those concerned.

    The fact that the SFA has chosen to bury its head in the sand and shy away from such a process serves only to further prove their substantial lack of fitness to oversee and govern our game. Time and again the SFA has proved itself unfit for purpose.

    The supposed damage to our game's reputation the SFA claims would occur by carrying out an investigation is nothing compared to he damage being done to our game's reputation by NOT carrying out an investigation into these matters.

    Not for the first time, the SFA has allowed itself to be manipulated and driven by fear of offending a big club and it's often rabid support rather than doing what is right and proper.

    For the good of Scottish football there MUST be a full and thorough investigation into this issue no matter the consequences for any individual(s) or organisation(s) concerned. And it must be fully open and transparent.

    It looks like once again it is going to be down to the fans to voice their opinions and force the issue.

    Spot on
