After they hatched their plan to blackmail Scottish Football League clubs into voting Newco into the First Division, Stewart Regan, Neil Doncaster and David Longmuir might have paused to wonder what reaction they would receive.
You better believe they didn’t anticipate the reaction today from Clyde and Raith Rovers. Rovers chairman, Turnbull Hutton, told BBC Scotland’s Jim Spence, “If we are at the stage of bending rules and accommodating, threatening and blackmailing, we want to give it up.”
“Bending rules… threatening… blackmailing…we want to give it up”.
Hutton went on to suggest heads should roll at the SFL, SFA and SPL. He’s the first from within the football establishment to call for sackings but he’ll not be the last.
An extensive statement by Clyde FC concluded, “The papers include a proposal to allow a Newco to enter the 1st Division. This is contrary to the rules of the SFL and nothing within the papers justifies this proposal.”
Regan, Doncaster and Longmuir will now be contemplating that their bully-boy tactics will fail. SLF clubs will vote against their recommendations and SPL clubs will not stop promotion from the lower leagues based on merit. It looks like abject failure of leadership.

Please let this go, and get back to enjoying the banter / fun with all your friends in Celtic on here …… We are entering the best period in our history, as are fans of all other Scottish clubs…. We have consigned ‘them’ ……
Justice has prevailed ……loin in on the joy, me bhoy….!!!!!!

I heard the Beemers wi air con are even better!
Couldnae find any of the Pyrene. That was my favourite to be honest. Pity we missed N. Would have been good to catch up. Say hello from me and tell him the Mega bus from Sheepsville is only a tenner. He can come down on Sat morning, come to game wi me, CurryB&B at mines and back up road on Sunday. If he wants to go clubbing I ‘ll go with him and take care of his cast off’s. ;-)
Gordon64 is a top bloke. He experimented with Sheep at an early age but of a more southern variety than yours :-)

Newbie ‘nat. But the bould bhoys has to be thanked for the excellent soundtrack to an amazing blog. However, my wee Da used to tell me that some people could cause trouble in an empty hoose. The hoose is now empty and there is no reason for any true Celtic fan to be fightin’ and a fussin’. Looking forward to next week. Whatever it brings. Hopefully it’s good news for Wee Oscar and his family. That is the real wd.

Just looked at the weather forecast for tomorrow “sunny” ……. Better get me brolly oot…..night all

bjmac,
So will you stop watching Sky?
dont have sky, but dont see why anyone who has made the same decision as supporters of other teams demanding integrity. People you obviously regard with disdain, since they took action you refuse to counteance (said before, were they punishing their team, or were they demandin integrity)
What will it take for you to buy a ticket?
again, proof positive the board havetaked a stand agains the corruption, shouldnt be hard for them to prove surely.
Who questioned if Celtic was your team?
You and your cronies, you told me I shouldn darlken Celtic park ever again, it’ll make you happy, I’m no good enough to be a Celtic supporter.
The clique is unaware of any such apology.
the clique are well aware of all apologies revisionism is a strong part of the delusion.
How would Neil Lennon know if you supported him, could he hear you?
No sure, but while you and your clique were looking to replace him and calling him incompetent I had to remind everyone on here what he had been through, and ask did they really thin that treatemet had stopped,
One mhan, Imatim being the only mhan to commend me on that evenings vitriol, I poured on the CQN collective, of which I am particularly proud of.
So heres how I see it, people dont like me because I say it how I see it, and dont hold back. Many do see my points but dont like the idea it applies to them so get the hump and rather than face it they try and take it out on me, and when I stand my ground I’m ;labelled intolerant and I’ve no problem with that because I really dont tolerate hypocrites, thats only one of the subjects I consider myslef a bigot.
Now lets get back to the biggest joke on here, giving up SKY, to me its simply a salve for people feeloing guilty that they have done nothing to improve the integrity of the game, salving your concience is still not my responsibilty, people who did not buy season tickets are mugs as far as you are concerned, thats your opinion and your welcome to it, but dont try and enforce your morals on me.

“…..a single example of how Cetic had absolutely no say in the destination of the titles they won. All three seasons were littered with similiar decisions he refused to countenance. ”
Absolutely agree.
CheekSplinters …[ooof]
O G Rafferty,
can you post any info on it,
or is there an earlier post you have made regarding it
Emus
Remember the 85 cup final,
When we appropriated the fizzy wine.
Then climbed over the wall at hampden.
oopsmon then …….l

It is possible to love Celtic without supporting them be it financially or vocally at the game.
I think that’s what bjmac was alluding to as opposed to questioning your Celtic credentials.
Anyway, as I said I’d prefer not to get involved any further.
gordybhoy64, 00:15
plenty of earlier posts
Right Quarter past 1 here and I need to get up early to watch my wife changing a wheel. She might need some advice. Bed time. Hail hail Amigos. Off to dream about Shakira bathing me or Shug D’s EBT. Decisions decisions.
Emu
Aye, it will be all my fault that the air con isny working when she gets home all hot and bothered…..
Sure he will take you up on the offer, he has a few bob now, last season he was rather short of the dinero, but he said he wanted to go to more next season, all depends on how many girlies he has in tow I suppose, lucky bassa :>)))
Oh to be young again, not that I would look for another, just for me and the Mrs to be young again, tis what dreams are made for :>)
Surprised you couldn’t get the Pyreen, it would be one of my favs as well, I only had the one bottle, drunk the rest, the Hachon red is good tho.
Enjoy the game the morra.
…………………
Have to retire now, long lie to look forward to………..
Take care and god bless

The dual contracts issue is causing them bother in terms of what some knew, I know that much……. also staff rumour suggesting EBT’s were being used at the SFA?
McCrummoch amd Stoneface?????

Goodnight……………..and Good Luck.

*shakes heid in mortification*
I’m fancying DUFC and Aberdeen to give Hearts the run for their money.
But I will be bullet and say a Johny Hayes inspired Aberdeen will see the Dons jump in to 2nd place.
next year’s surprise package will be Ross County. Tidy team , good Manager and very wealthy backer…

I once heard him described as a great interpreter of songs rather than a great singer, which is fair enough as he’s not Caruso, but still – ‘Wee small hours of the morning’ and so many others – he’s up there as one of my favourites.

Do you remember the shop? It was Agnews. We entered chanting “always change at Agnews! Oh yes thers always change at Agnews, always change at Agnews” to the tune of one tamamerra. I was at front of queue of 20 wi 4 cans of tennents. I turned round after paying to see I was only customer in shop. Hampden was under construction. Wall about 6 feet high. I gave aboot 50 guys a pucky over. Still got the footprints on ma heid! Happy days!
Night amigo!
