SFA rejects Ranger's transfer ban appeal

quote:

---

Rangers have had their appeal against a £160,000 fine and a year-long transfer embargo rejected by a Scottish Football Association tribunal.

The SFA had charged the club with six breaches of its rules and banned owner Craig Whyte from Scottish football.

Rangers, who remain in administration, argued that they should not be held responsible for Whyte's actions.

But an SFA statement said: "The appellate tribunal affirms the decision of the disciplinary tribunal."
