Regan responds to McCoist comments

Stewart Regan has vowed not to get involved in a mud slinging exercise with Sevco despite accusing the club of making undignified and irresponsible comments.

Ally McCoist led the criticism on Friday night when he claimed that there was a lack of leadership at the SFA shortly after Sevco were given conditional SFA membership.

The Ibrox boss also claimed that the SPL were pursuing a hostile agenda against his club but so far hasn’t been charged by the SFA for those comments.

“Ally’s one of the few people remaining at the club that the fans can associate with so he’s clearly going to try and defend the club’s position,” Regan told STV.

“Some of the comments that have been made by a number of individuals in recent weeks have been quite undignified and have been quite irresponsible at times.

“I think a number of comments have been made over recent weeks. I’m not prepared to go into individual comments, I think we’re all aware of things that have been said.

“I wish to rise above that. I don’t want dirty washing aired in public, I’ve said that on several occasions. I won’t get into that, what I will say is that we remain focused on doing what is in the best interests of Scottish football.”

Explaining the issue of temporary SFA membership Regan added: “I think when you’re looking at taking a new company back in the league, and accepting a new company as a member there are always going to be challenges.

“In this particular case, there were a series of charges relating to the oldco that were hanging over and that still needed to be considered.”
