Appellate body CEO taking sides

826

So the chief executive of the appellate body awaiting a decision to appeal says, “It’s crucial with league reconstruction being such an important issue for the game that we now draw a line under what’s happened”.

According to the SPL Commission the president of that same appellate body was one of the “directors of Oldco [which]must bear a heavy responsibility” for what happened.

Responsibility, however, is an unnecessary concept for the chief executive of the appellate body, who told the media “It’s not about trying to find scapegoats to take responsibility for what’s happened in the last 12 months.”

Note use of language, those responsible are now “scapegoats”.

Scapegoat, def: A person or group made to bear the blame for others or to suffer in their place.

Let’s not look for scapegoats.  Instead let’s stick to who Lord Nimmo Smith’s Commision blame, “the directors of Oldco”.  Including the appellate body’s president.

The appellate body is unfit as an appellate body and as a football association.  SPL clubs must look for a new playing environment.  Let the SFA and SFL run the grassroots game. They appear to want this anyway and I am sure SPL clubs will flourish when no longer restricted to opposition from Scotland.

    God is amazing and the way he let’s you know he is in control of things is fantastic. It is a shame that a lot of people nowadays are not aware because they have an ego.

  2. they’re no deid right now, if they continue as they are doing they’ll be in the champions league in three years time celtic will be playing to far smaller crowds with worse referees, still being cheated, the time for action is now, what form that takes is hard to guess, legal would be my guess hope celtic make a move quickly otherwise the game finished in this country

  3. Has embdy noticed how many right-wing Yanks are all over our airwaves pontificating how we should ALL live like extreme right-wing Amerikans.

     

    Funny how much money The Amerikan State Dept. has to spread about.

     

    And, btw, that is EXACTLY what is happening.

     

    The UKplc. laughable government has an agreement to spread Yank ideology via The BBC in return for U.S. State Dept. cash.

     

    Almost unbelievable except it’s true.

    Kojo – Your posts are an inspiration.Top of the range contributions tonight,and always interesting.I read your material and i try to learn.Many thanks.

  5. Get real……broad church and all that mealy mouthed stuff……Kojo is encyclopaedic in his knowledge of all things Celtic. R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

     

    Howevah…..the rest of his guff is sheggite. And he knows it to be so, and he knows I know it, like 1000’s of others.

     

    Still laughin’ like a dog on crack.

    If Celtic had deprived the rest of Scottish football of £250 million over ten years

     

    I wonder how Scottish football would be restructured to accommodate them.

  7. Margaret McGill on

    Why are the mentally ill allowed to park their wee three wheeled pale blue robins doon the front of CQN. God luvvem. I think this is to facilitate them a better view and additionally alleviate that overwhelming guilt complex that abounds herein. Even when they throw their auld chip wrappers and snottery kleenexes oot the windae. Somebody somewhere will eventually clean it up. Howevvaaah, it just encourages that sense of entitelment. Personally I think they should be deprived of their tartan shawls at least.

  8. Most of youse knows I am dying, quickly and painfully ( terminal lung cancer. I’m 62. I grew up in Glasgow. That figures, eh?) , but I am not self pitying, far from it. I have lived a long, rich, and varied life and I have lived like a king and I have lived in the gutter, both equally entertaining……….

     

    ” We are all living lin the gutter

     

    Some of us are looking at the stars. ”

     

    And this, my favourite poem of all time:

     

     

    “Do not go gentle into that good night,

     

    Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

     

    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

     

     

    Though wise men at their end know dark is right,

     

    Because their words had forked no lightning they

     

    Do not go gentle into that good night.

     

     

    Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

     

    Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

     

    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

     

     

    Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

     

    And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

     

    Do not go gentle into that good night.

     

     

    Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

     

    Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

     

    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

     

     

    And you, my father, there on the sad height,

     

    Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

     

    Do not go gentle into that good night.

     

    Rage, rage against the dying of the light. ”

     

     

    And my favourite lines from Dylan Thomas…..it was my father’s, too.

     

    ” Time held me Green and Dying ”

     

    ” Though I sang in my chains like the sea. ”

     

    I had hoped to organise a night of music performances for Wee Oscar, but my hourglass is running down too quickly. Maybe some of you will do that in my stead.

     

    I will be auctioning off some real good kit, or at least selling it, to raise money for his campaign.

     

    That wee Mhan is an inspiration to me like he is to 1000’s worldwide. I have watched his valiant struggle against the cruellest of diseases nd he has affected my soul profoundly.

     

    Wherever I go I will take his memory with me.

     

     

    And to all of you on CQN, especially my beloved young brother ‘larrybhoy’, I thank you all for making my world a better place, and me a better human being.

     

    And a particular ‘thank you’ to Paul67 Brennan for giving us all such a brilliant blog. Cap doffed, monsewer, Rodney, cap doffed.

     

     

    And just before I go, I want youse to know that the huns of old, the sevconians, the rotten lamb suckers, and all the lousy trolling green huns, brogue wearing Tims and that rough beast of a presstitute, Jabba, are copping it from me verbally like the Calton Tong were on their case, afore I shuffle off this mortal coil.

     

     

    ( A final mention: SouthOfTunis, your daily accounts of life in Sicily have been a joy. Your invaluable insights into Italian football and society have been enlightening and illuminating.

     

    And you love of your good lady from Padova has been matched only by mine from Wimborne!)

     

     

    I think that’s me done.

     

    I just wanted to say it all before the hour comes round at last.

     

     

    Love and respect to you all.

  9. Hey I like gerlad warner, he cuts through the BS and gives a christian persepective on things, we may well disagree on economics but we are on the same page regarding christian values and on anti the current form of globalisation promoted by “third wayist materilaist elites” I myself am a third wayist(sort of though a left wing one) but I HATE MARX. He was a con and engles too.

     

     

    Hes not egalitarian at all, useful idiots think “oh everyone has equal money” but they miss the part where he says that a person only has worth when given it by someone more important (and who knows how he decides who is “more important”) Lets just say free masonry any one?

     

     

    Also seen the new appaling amazon “stay calm and rape her t-shirts” my god their getting blatant now and useful or obfuscinst leftists miss the core cause it has little if anything to do with “sexism” and everything to do with a group of religious nutters who seem to worship the f-in “SUN” and “Sex” not to mention abusing people and treating people as animals…. On the yahooo page somone is suspicious of “radical feminsts” manufacturing it, this just shows the justified distrust the public has with institutions and “reality” but far too often the “real” cause is ignored to “safe” causes which may well be partial explinations or partially rationaly but such “safe” answers don’t fit as well as the said existance of a bunch of mad banker sabbateian heretical jews (who hate the torah and who are supposedly dead but film industry etc says otherwise).

     

     

    A year or two ago I began heraring all this crap about “twitter this or that” intially I put it down to spoilt bbc reporter “adults “acting liking kids and loving themselves all too much but its pretty clear now it was all manufacutred to further dumb down society.

     

     

    I also believe that their is some chance at some time in the future of a “faked” alien invasion and quite frankly its sad so many believe in aliens when the chance of alien life other than bacteria existing is very small, the chance of intelligent life is smaller and that of it being close enough to us and having the tech to get here next to non existant…. And if it really did have that tech it would have killed us by now if it where hostile…. Non the less useful idiots are feed lots of tv shows to prick and divert them from the truth.

     

     

    Who knows if masonry was always evil or was corrputed after the fall of the bravarian illuminati, who knows if simply a load of occult mystic types in 18th century corrupted it in america and then exported their perversion world wide. All I know is that whilst the bottom are merely quilty of showing more love to their organisation than their family the top are seriously dangerous. But the reaction to said t-shirt at least proves we havent totally reached moral vacuum yet.

     

     

    Sadly folk who have the iq of an ant actually say “dont like it dont buy it” ignoring the fact such sick t-shirts promote evil acts and should not be worn by anyone with any moral standards. Smashing some thickos in the face if we ever meet such idiots seems almost forgivable

  10. sorry to hear about miki. Life is sad sometimes. But evil will only win if we do nothing. Sadly though we cant put of death for ever however we hope for life after death and I believe we do have it though i hope my faith is strong enough to get it when I die. Life is great and sad and confusing. And reality is sadly not as mundane as I used to think it was. Give me mudane “normal” world I used to believe in…

    A brave post,Miki. Brave,fearless,meeting the challenge with hope and joy.

     

     

    Your earlier posts this evening were a marked contrast to the e-mail you sent early yesterday. The fire still burns,the passion is still there.

     

     

    The one at 0206 is,however,a better measure of you-that even in such trying times you see fit to mention and indeed thank others for what they have brought to you.

     

     

    Oscar,as you rightly point out,is an inspiration to us for the strength and fortitude with which he has faced up to his devastating illness.

     

     

    The courage you have displayed in the face of your own puts you in the same bracket,Miki.

     

     

    We are all with Oscar in his fight,and we are all with you too.

     

     

    But more importantly for you,so too is The Lady from Wimborne.

    Safe journey,bud. Meet up if you are available.

  17. Miki67

     

    I have never met you and probably never will but your posts are one of the ones I always look forward to reading.

     

    Keep the posts coming,guys like myself who find it hard to put into writing what they want to say need people like yourself to keep saying it as it is. Look after yourself and keep fighting.

    Just dropped in to say..

     

     

    I hope we can be good / lucky enough to go and win the double this season. For me it would put a respectable gloss on the conclusion to a season with a very memorable Euro run that will live long in the memory. I just wish that Neil would have – parked the bus – at home to Juve. Wise after the event – CSC

     

     

    I wouldn’t be the slightest bit surprised though, if…Hibs won the SC.

     

    No loss what a friend gets ? Hmmmm

     

     

    I feel that…whilst CQN specifically has at times been 24 / 7 with the impending doom that would see – off the huns…looks to me as though the tables have been turned and I hope I’m wrong but…the aftermath of LNS…might lead to us tearing ourselves apart. The support are all over the place and this current state of despondency shows no signs of lifting. THAT’S a worry. imo

     

     

    In fact…it’s almost as if the entire blog has taken their – KevJungle tablets :o)))

     

     

    Miki67 = LOVE M8

     

     

    Off oot

  19. Top of the morning to you all from a pre-sunrise grey Fife.

     

     

    Miki67 respect I love the DT

     

     

    If the desperation that is creeping into the tone of creeps means anything it is that Challs is running desperately short of money.

     

     

    The great surges of annoyance I feel when Provan, Burley, et al urge us to bring back the Sevconians to the SPL is but temporary and is soon replaced by a warm glow when I realise just how desperate things must be for them to set Jabba on to his brethren to get such quotes.

     

     

    We need the Old Firm do we Jabba? If I never see Celtic play the cheats again I will be happy.

     

     

    Still want Celtic to challenge the LNS parody/verdict and call a vote of no confidence in Reagan for taking sides in matters that he may yet have to decide on appeal.

     

     

    Sign Stokes up!

  20. I have a vision: one in which all the auld ratbaggers from t’rankers are sittimg in a p*** stained greasy old-codgers hovel kicking at each other in their smellly chairs and beating each other with their cheap aluminium stcks and zimmer frames whilst croaking at each other : it was your fault: naw, it was your fault, as the lard addict Sally chokes on his wallies, and a wrinkled auld Jabba wretches bile uncontrollably in his own special large corner.

     

    Oh, how the mighty are fallen. Except they were never mighty. They were simply mundane and boring.

    There are many inspirations in life, i wish i had a tenth of your courage

     

     

    My thoughts will be with you today

  23. Longmuir in the Evening Times this morning claiming Sevco could be fast-tracked into the second tier if plans for a 12-12-18 league structure gets the go ahead.

     

    Using Stranraer situation in 1994 as a precedent .

     

    On another point Sevco are losing 1m per month but are claiming to have 21m in the bank .

     

    They must be spending some amount of money on Brasso for their neck .

    Sir, I offer you a cyber space hand shake and bid you adieu.

     

     

    God bless.

  25. Morning,

     

     

    Looks like Lubo has the perfect response to the ones who state they wont be back at Celtic Park.

     

     

    “I feel wonderful emotions every time I go to Celtic because I’m so proud that I was part of that club. I love Celtic, I love them. It’s like my family.”

  26. If you’re just up, have a read of Miki67’s remarkable post from 02.06 today.

     

     

    Miki, you are a brave, fine man. I’m in awe at your courage. How you have written so well over the last months while in unimaginable pain is beyond me.

     

     

    God bless you.

  27. Miki67. You are quite an incredible man. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily. Keep on fighting mate. I would love to spend an hour in your company that would be an education.
