:01:44. > :01:50.under investigation, but by a tribunal and a football independent

:02:07. > :02:12.But we are still waiting for the result of the case. Rangers have

:02:17. > :02:22.anything wrong from that point of view, he has not done anything
:02:22. > :02:26.wrong from a contract point of view as well. But a documentary

:02:36. > :02:44.with cash. But the current manager thinks that there is no case to

:02:50. > :02:56.probably a complete waste of time but people have seen it fit to
:02:56. > :03:00.pursue this. That is up to them. Alex McLeish was the manager for
:03:00. > :03:05.much of the period under investigation. He said he thinks
:03:05. > :03:09.the idea of stripping the clerk of titles is a non-starter but the
:03:09. > :03:14.question remains that it they had not operated the scheme, could they

:03:52. > :03:56.is starting to rain heavily again. We have still got weather warnings
:03:56. > :04:04.in the Borders tonight. The problems started right at the back
:04:04. > :04:07.of the town. It burst its banks and it we had a very heavy and intense
:04:08. > :04:12.downpour. Floodwaters were cascading down the street and
:04:12. > :04:19.flooding was down in the centre of town and it was hitting businesses
:04:19. > :04:24.as it went. Businesses like this coffee-shop. It was flooded in a
:04:24. > :04:31.matter of minutes. Another business, all the fixtures and fittings have
:04:31. > :04:36.been ruined and are out on the street. Upstairs was not too bad
:04:36. > :04:42.but downstairs in the basement, the water had come through the walls.
:04:42. > :04:50.It had ruined everything stored down here. It has ruined everything
:04:50. > :04:58.here yesterday. It is as bad as it has ever been. The Barbers was also
:04:58. > :05:02.hit badly. That was Corby did time in 15 years. I have got to go up
:05:02. > :05:07.and look at the walls and the plastering and they have been
:05:07. > :05:15.soaked. High street houses stood little chance against the flood
:05:15. > :05:19.water. It was bursting through the doors. Eat -- it has ruined the
:05:19. > :05:27.tiles and the papers. We had not checked the electrics as of yet but
:05:27. > :05:31.we are pretty devastated. The high street is downhill. But this is
:05:31. > :05:36.where the river burst its banks. If we look down here, we have got
:05:36. > :05:41.special fencing. When the water level hits that, it sets off an
:05:41. > :05:48.alarm at headquarters. But it was so intense and so quick that this
:05:48. > :05:52.whole thing was completely overwhelmed in minutes. Yesterday,
:05:52. > :05:57.this underpass was impassable. It was almost full. Emergency services
:05:57. > :06:02.have checked homes for stranded residents. As the damage was
:06:02. > :06:06.checked, we did have some council criticism. At the mobilised
:06:06. > :06:09.machines quickly along with the police and fire brigades and
:06:09. > :06:14.actually the response, we have cleared the town very well and we
:06:14. > :06:18.have helped local traders to resolve issues. We have got an air
:06:18. > :06:24.of determination here. This town is doing everything it can to get back
:06:24. > :06:28.to normal as quickly as possible. Anybody that has been affected by
:06:28. > :06:33.the flooding, businesses and local residents, have been asked to
:06:33. > :06:36.attend a special town hall meeting. People are asking for assurances
:06:36. > :06:41.that everything that can be done to stop this happening again will be
:06:41. > :06:47.done. A key way it is nearly over for nervous pupils and probably
