Another year, another damaging SFA leaked email

361

The Scottish FA has an interesting history of leaked emails.  I hear.  Today’s presentation, by that persistent thorn in the side of those who would rather awkward questions were not asked, Alex Thomson of Channel 4 News, is surely a contender for Leaked Email of the Season.

The critical words, written by SFA chief exec Stewart Regan on 23 June to various people, read:

“In parallel to the above, could Rod Petrie please brief Charles Green confidentially..”

So on 23 June, Petrie and Regan were on the onside with a plan to “gain buy-in to the plan” from SFL clubs to parachute Sevco into the First Division, and the SFA chief exec had instructed that the chief exec of Sevco was “confidentially” instructed on this plan.

On 24 June Rod Petrie’s Hibernian took plaudits for their statement of intent to reject Sevco’s application to the SPL, adding that “This re-affirms the view of the Board that the sporting integrity of the SPL is of paramount importance”.

Petrie and Regan are on the main Scottish FA board, along with former Rangers director Campbell Ogilvie (president), Alan McRae (vice-president – although I don’t think that means he is in charge of vice), Ralph Topping, Tom Johnston and Barrie Jackson.

It is no wonder our earlier calls for resignations have been echoed by SFL chairmen today.  Sack the lot of them, I’d say.

  5. Division Three is still to good for them, this is a business with no audited accounts, players or license, step forward Spartans and state your case, the corrupt SFA have broken every law in the land to assist an already tainted New club take yours or someone else place in the league…

  6. Atrocious leadership from Regan and Doncaster positions now completely untenable. Tahrir square CSC…

    Class. :)))))))

  8. Sevco starts in division 3. It’s the best we could have expected – but they should realise they have still had a huge advantage over any other new club. No assessment against membership criteria and no other clubs allowed to apply.

  9. Ally really will be the oldest young manager in football by the time they claw their way back into the top flight.

     

     

    Ah, all these new venues unused to riots, sectarianism, and “honest mistakes”…….

     

     

    Looking forward to how the whole pantomime now plays out.

  10. Enormity of what is happening just sinking in… In our wildest dreams did we see this coming even a year ago?

  11. It’s the end of the World as we know it.

     

     

    AND I FEEL FINE!!

  14. Any coincedence that the sponsor on the jersey of the Ireland football team is 3??????????????????????????/

    Go get em Spartans!!!!!

  15. What a great day to celebrate my Birthday, heading out for a meal with the family then back to G72 for plenty of Bombay Saphire and a late one, the medal planned for tommorow cancelled due to waterlogged course ,FRIDAY the 13TH if Carlsberg did black Fridays , HH

    Never thought I would see this day.

     

    Still can’t believe it has finally happened- got a feeling another MSM/b

     

    Blazer ridden ‘campaign’ will occur.

     

     

    Regan and Doncaster remind me of the guys at school who when they lost at anything always wanted best of 3, best of 5, best of 7 etc

     

     

    The spin will be incredible – “this is what I wanted from the start says ”

     

     

    What days we live in

     

    Hail hail
