Appetites wetted, consequence of intimidation

608

For some, short holidays are over. Batteries recharged, appetites wetted. The international break is not the period of worldwide travel and mockery it is for others. If you think you are champing at the bit to get to Celtic Park on Saturday, Scott Brown and Kolo Toure could probably sprint there from Lennoxtown right now.

For others it will be a chance to put disappointments behind them. A few (well, maybe just Moussa) will return having achieved new heights for their country. As ever, Tom Rogic will pitch with jetlag having played in two continents in the last six days.

You know they will all want to see and impress Brendan. This is the way of it at Lennoxtown right now. They are bursting a gut at training to get into the team. Be alarmed, Motherwell.

You know when your PR is on nationwide TV, intemperate and pointy, that you are in special hands. Asking the same question four different ways lacks courtesy (and a whole lot more), but PR can’t let the journo leave knowing he’s got what he wanted from the encounter. I’m no PR expert, but you know when you see someone mis-control a proverbial back pass.

Still angry at that newspaper’s attack on Celtic yesterday. I didn’t buy it, so didn’t realise at the time they printed Peter Lawwell’s home address. You know what you are doing when you publish someone’s home address.  It rarely happens because the consequences are so uncontrollable.

It’s one of the most insidious acts legally possible by a newspaper. It has an immediate consequence of intimidation for the family – that’s a given when you make the decision to print something several hundred thousand times.  Utterly deplorable.  We are back in the era where attacks were incited on Neil Lennon.

Apologies for issues accessing the blog recently.  I’m on the case.

    Didn’t mean to stress anyone out, so it looks like it brings us back to level 5 breach of privacy

     

    Hope the Club are on the case.

    Saw your post last week about your trip to Seville asking about places to visit – didn’t get the chance to reply with a worthwhile suggestion.

     

    Take a trip (by train 40 minutes – probably no more than 20 euros return) to Cordoba. Allow a full day to visit the Great Mosque/Cathedral – fantastic place/architecture.

     

    The Cathedral was built inside the Great Mosque by Ferdinand and Isabella and has circa 60 chapels inside the exterior walls. The area is a European Heritage site and contains the Ancient Fort overlooking the river (think El Cid), the Roman Gardens, a smaller version of the Arc de Triomphe and the Old Jewish Quarter.

     

    Trust me – your visit will not disappoint you!

    Bada Bing, no need to round up the orange bastards, they all go willingly to the ibrox hovel every second Saturday.

    “Nobody deserves your tears, but whoever deserves them will not make you cry.”

     

     

    Now, that’s a Country and Western song waiting to be written.

  6. Evening all (bend-the-knees),

     

     

    So let me get this correct.

     

    A Celtic fan is identified by plod as holding a banner that offended them after looking thru hours of video/photos to be offended.

     

     

    This crime is deemed so heinous that they get a warrant from a magistrate to go to said offenders house at 5.30am (overtime anyone) and drag poor offender off to the local nick where he is incarcerated for god knows how long and bailed to await trial.

     

     

    I would think that a better use of resources would be in the form of a summons to appear at court. Would save a lot of expense to the taxpayer cos it’s been done in your name and taxes. Never mind that the charge is trumped up and OBAF is an obscenity.

     

     

    Meanwhile due to lack of resources, real crime such as drug dealing, assault, rape are put on a back burner cos they are not a priority in our new police state.

     

     

    God give me strength.

    They don’t even have to Phoenix the Phoenix. Its administration,not liquidation.

     

     

    Third Rangers,Rangers the turd,whatever,will be put off for a bit longer.

     

     

    _____________

     

     

     

    But they do have to phoenix the phoenix. If it goes tits up again the biggest debtor will again be HMRC for the Q1, Q2 & Q3 tax bill (sure the roof bill will not count as a debtor???)

     

     

    HMRC were the driving force in not allowing the huns to, cant remember the specific legal term but it meant the huns could not give the debtors pennies in the pound for the debt.

     

     

    Why would this change now??

    Sorry mhate, never meant to stress you out about stressing me out, lots of unnecessary stress there.

     

     

    The fact is the rectum published an address not normally available to the general populous.

     

     

    Why would they do that??

    Will a nuke be sufficient to kill zombies,or will they survive like the cockroaches they are?

     

     

    Only one way to find out-over to you,ACGR(!)

  11. I’m surprised that Hector allowed them to get away with Q1 and 2 let alone 3, so with mucho respect I am taking the info with a bucket of salt.

     

    They will come up smelling of hun shite but they won’t die again, it won’t be allowed to happen, there is too much at stake this time.

     

    I hope I am wrong, but have me doubts I will be.

  12. TET

     

     

    According to Johnjames and Philmac the Q1 and Q2 overdue notices are just hitting ibrox. Just assuming here that if they missed Q1 and Q2 that they will miss Q3 when it becomes due….

  13. Clunks

     

    The only conclusion, noted many times here, there is an agenda. Even in the Rectum there must be some decent people, one might throw a bit of light on that agenda.

    I’m intrigued by this ‘roof repair’ scenario and its consequences.

     

    Are TRIFC tenants or owners – who owns the deeds?

     

    If they are just the tenants – does their lease include a continuous ‘repairs and maintenance’ clause? If so – the roof may well be a debtor!

  15. Well done, Bob D.

     

     

    Funny guy, too.

    And took his wife to Italy.

     

    She inherited a million bucks,

     

    And when she died it came to me

     

     

    I can’t help it if I’m lucky.”

    Great question. I can work the basics of companies house but have no idea where to find the paperwork on this??

     

     

    If they were a tenant tho would it not be somewhere in there accounts? But then again even the great and mostly pashed John Brown didnt know that!

     

     

    Is there a cqn’er who could answer that question?

  17. Clunks

     

    Hector should-would have been on their case knowing what they know about the club, all I am saying is that I don’t believe Hector will have allowed it to get this far, had they defaulted on Q1 he would have been in there threatening them and they wouldn’t have been allowed to get this far with taxes due.

     

    As I said I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

    If hector wanted to be on them then they would be all over them like a fecking rash for using trademarks of a liquidiated company.

     

     

    Sure this is illegal to stop phoenixing.

     

     

    So you may be right here….

    Worth a wee visit for a copa/café con leche is the Rey Alfonso X Hotel. (Can’t remember if I mentioned it.).

     

     

    Beautiful building inside and out.

     

     

    If I ever win ‘El Gordo’, I’ll stay there a few nights.

    Can’t think of where a ‘tenancy agreement’ has to be made a matter of Public Record – perhaps Public Servants?

     

    Somebody somewhere knows – I’m guessing their Liability Insurers!

  22. TET

     

     

    Even using the former name of a company is against the law in some way to stop the phoenix??

     

     

    So how in the hell does a 4 year old club have so many titles?

     

     

    Its mind boggling because they cant and if they do then they are in breach of laws the HMRC put in place to stop the pheonix.

     

     

    Know what I mean?

  23. Clunks

     

    If the group had a significant contingent liability under the lease that should be disclosed in the accounts. More likely if it was a tenant the repairing clauses would have been based on state of asset at signing of the lease so this is unlikely.

     

    If the company owned the asset that too should show up in the accounts. Have never been that interested in looking at them so don’t know if either is obvious.

     

    Just my view.

     

    Cheers and off to kip

  24. Re Bobby Murdoch.

     

     

    I was there when he scored a landmark goal for us v Thistle? at Paradise.

     

     

    Great for him to have got it, after creating so many.

     

     

    Anyone know the number?

  25. Everything about the huns administration, liquidation and eventual phoenix stinks.

     

     

    It all stinks, basic administration law not adhered to (lets go into administration and try to buy more players instead of shrink the squad to basics. Every team that goes into admin sheds the bulk of their squad. not the huns tho, they try to buy MORE players)

     

     

    Lets liquidate and then set up with the same NAME, BADGE and TITLES against the phoenix laws brought in to stop this pash.

     

     

    It stinks all the way to masonville…………

    I dont have the knowledge of accounts to figure that out, sure someone here does tho?

  27. So Level 5 might not be operating from the palatial offices, as photographed on their website (I always thought that the cupboards looked suspiciously bare). Instead they are spreading their lies from a coo shed somewhere near Murray Park?

     

    Don’t they work for some of our impartial legislators?

     

     

    Bada,

     

     

    I’m in Glasgow at the moment, all things being well I might see you in the morning.

    The use of the name, the badges etc has always bothered me, I don’t think it’s Hector who is responsible for policing it btw, I think it’s company’s house or someone similar.

     

    Now I could be wrong here, but I am under the impression that someone, say a creditor has to complain to the relevant body for action to be taken against them for the use of names. brands etc.

     

    I know they have sailed close to the wind, but blatant, flagrant in your face abuse of the law would rile somebody I would think, scotland or no.
