Abject failure of leadership

1038

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.

  1. Coorslad,

     

    just remember Paula from our digs telling us that was how to reply

     

    to the question,one of the few things i remember from the weekend ;-))

     

    do you remember the young girl that sang in Tracys,would you know her name

     

    and if she has any stuff on you tube,beautiful voice

  2. Imatim is one of the lhads that has always stayed here during hunfestations and defended Lenny during the peak of the anti-Lenny campaign.

     

     

    Imatim is a true hunskelper, and has my genuine love and respect :))

    That would make sense…

     

     

     

    Canamalar, finally before I go to bed. You accused me of wanting Neil to get the sack, you then change that to say you were the only one who wanted him to stay. How many fans at the game did you hear singing for Lenny to be sacked? I’ll tell you – NONE, zero, zip, nada. that is where I was, at Killie, at Hibs, at tynecastle, at Inverness. Not on here accusing people of things they didn’t do.

     

     

    I stayed of CQN around that time, as I understand what it can be like when we get bad results, but here we are, champions, the Huns dying and you still won’t SUPPORT our team due to alleged principles which change regularly. CRSMITH? And I have never heard anyone on the current board say the words old firm supporter when talking about the Celtic support.

    FFM,

     

    wouldnt bother, been getting drivel from the usual condescenfing clowns.

     

    trying to cherry pick on trivial points of order and avoid the substance.

     

    nothing unusual .

     

    aspersions and innuend, the usual argument of the insecure.

    Re the licensing issue last year, Phil might have fired the arrow but he wasn’t Fletcher.

    FFM,

     

    bjmac’s last post being the perfect exampe, irrelevant drivel, transferring comments about discussion relating to the blog to the stadium, he knows exactly what I was talking about, but has decided he doesnt like that ,so has made it about some interpretation he has come up with.

     

    With a wee bit of condescending drivel to boot, same thing all night.

  7. The best thing I’ve read today is the battered bunnets analysis and incisive questioning.

     

    Great stuff,and it’s already reaching a wider audience.

     

    Major kudos to that mhan!

     

    HH!

  8. Canamalar,

     

     

    Haven’t read anything back….as long as you’re not being too Canamalaresque I can’t see any reasons for fallouts :)) I like BJMac, so am hoping you two can sort it out. Meantime, I’m looking for Mags McG for a proper barney. You two are a couple of burd’s blouses.

  9. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    FFM,

     

    no question about that, I was hoping he’d remember last october when he congratulated me for my defene of our manager last october, when I felt like I was the only one defending him.

     

    In fact I probably was as its unlikely he would have been praised for my stance I there were more.

  10. Auld Neil Lennon heid on

    How about this for a welcome banner for Aberdeen?

     

     

    We Forgive You,

     

    It WAS Only One Sheep! ;)

  11. Canamalar @ 01:50

     

     

    That’s interesting. There were few of us defending Lenny against a storm of hunfiltrators . But I don’t think BJMac was someone standing out there?!?

     

     

    Let it go amigo. You two would prob get on two well at the bar, but you’se are noising each other up. Don’t get me wrong, is entertaining :)))

     

     

    Save it for the huns that post here and need skelped big time imo.

  12. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    FFM,

     

    I used to like him too, but he’s taken to whose the best supporter stuff.

     

    He’s got his pals andwill defend them to the hilt, right wrong or indifferent. Lost his objectivity.

  13. Auld Neil Lennon heid on

    Canalamar

     

    Bjmac

     

     

    Having met both of you I think that any real life encounter would involve dialogue and end in hugs.

     

     

    Manly ones I imagine, but chacun a son gout n that. :)

  14. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    FFM,

     

    I tried to let it go earlier, he’s no interested

    “The rules of the Game cannot be applied to Rangers”

     

     

    Well, I don’t know their world.

     

     

    But I guess it is a tight ship.

     

     

    They can’t control us, but when we are out of line, in their eyes, it’s bombs, bullets, refs, laws, and the press.

     

     

    What if one of the brethren steps out of line?

     

     

    Well it certainly won’t be reported.

     

     

    But imagine the pressure that could be applied within their family.

     

     

    For all the threats and beatings we experience, there would be be much worse inside their world.

     

     

    And no one would ever know.

     

     

    Might explain some odd behaviour recently.

  16. Canamarl,

     

     

    Fair enough, you’s have that subtle point of contention.

     

     

    I respect you both cos I’m a sit on the fence soup taker….

     

     

    Look, I know what’s going on here.

     

     

    Some of us like friendly debate and are prepated to tolerate hunfiltrators gladly.

     

     

    Some of us hate hunfiltrators as we know what they’re here for, and can see the damage they do.

     

     

    This creates a divide.

     

     

    So the hunfiltrator wins/

     

     

    Which is why Media House keeps paying them to come here.

     

     

    The main issue of the day gets lost in interesting personal attacks.

     

     

    Put yer differences aside and concentrate on hunskelping.

    FFM,

     

    would that I could, the peewee clique are taking turns,even claimed I was trying to play the victim card earlier ffs me a victim have you ever heard such nonsense :oD)))))

  18. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    anyroadup,

     

    mags is probably out on the razz

  19. Hold on a minute…….what’s all the subtle stuff about any reincarnation of a competely dead club being shoehorned even into Div3 ? Any football club wishing to play in any part of the SFL has to apply and then,on consideration,meet strict criteria. And in the case of the well known dead club there would have to be extremely careful scrutiny of its hydra like re-emergence.

     

    Some of the manically arrogant ‘fans’ of the non-existent club say,”We’ll go down to the third division and batter our way through Scotland back to the top and then we’ll conquer Europe ! And we’ ll financially ruin all of you coz wearrapeepil ! ”

     

    What?!

     

    There is no ‘peepil’. There is no rfc.

     

    There are the citizen fans of Scottish football,and we have spoken. We want a fair game. And this is the time for that to occur after the exposé of the biggest scandal to hit the footballing world.

     

    It is still an emerging scandal and there is yet much to be revealed.

     

    But,in the meantime,the scurrilous club at the centre of this corrupt web is dead and buried. No pale shadow need think it can just waltz back into the game with its brutal sense of entitlement intact and ready to resume its vicious tactics.

     

    Not now. Not ever. Never again.

  20. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    auldheid,

     

    do you still believe only external involvement can sort the scottish problem

  21. canamalar

     

     

    I genuinely haven’t read anything past this page, so don’t know what has been said. But I know you’d NEVER play any victim card :)))

     

     

    Anyway. Am waiting here for Mags to return from the razz. Feckin fecker needs to answer my points. >:(( (that’s an angry as fecking angry can be smilie) GRRRRR!!

    Fortunes and Canamalar….

     

     

    As a seasoned barmaid said to me and my fellow steamers in The Douglas, as we all competed for a wee skank (the only female).

     

     

    “its like flies round shite”

  26. Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire on

    Rascar..,

  27. Rascar,

     

     

    Mags is neither a burd nor a shite.

     

     

    An intelligent opinionated SUPERIOR pain in the erchie, but an important, and crucial part of CQN. Don’t mistake this for more erchie sookin. Also a total fud. :))
