SFA deem Whyte not 'a fit and proper personto hold a position within association football#

THE Scottish Football Association has judged that Craig Whyte, the Rangers owner, "is not a fit and proper person to hold a position within association football", writes Hugh MacDonald.

Rangers also face a charge of bringing the game into disrepute.

The findings of the independent inquiry will now be referred to the judicial panel. Penalties for the club range from a warning up to suspension of membership. The investigation, ordered on February 17, three days after Rangers went into administration, was headed by Lord William Nimmo Smith.
