Beware snooping TV mics

640

Offensive, insulting and abusive language is not condoned on CQN nor anywhere else but if you’re mumbling to this effect while typing more prosaic comments we don’t have a problem. If, by some clever use of technology, I discretely caught you on mic while recording a feature for CQN and broadcast your words it would be my fault, not yours.

If Neil Lennon addressed insulting or abusive language at an official or opponent then he should be correctly disciplined, but if, as reported, television microphones picked up randomly comments there is no case to answer.

We’re getting back to the days when directional radio mics were used to pick up sound from Celtic fans getting off buses outside Falkirk Stadium in 2009. This one feels opportunistic and is not balanced by audio from other technical areas under scrutiny. If this is how the SFA want to control technical areas, they should issue advice to this effect and introduce appropriate measures, not attempt to discipline Neil Lennon without precedent.

    So……………………..

     

     

    There you have it.

     

     

    The 4th official must have heard it, they hear everything, and they hear things that no one else hears, as I said, an after thought………….a so if you like………………………….

  4. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    Off to bed now, but just 3 thoughts…

     

     

    1)……the SFA are legally empowered to use VIDEO evidence….they are NOT legally empowered to use ‘hidden’ mic evidence….

     

     

    2)……the WATP ‘aprons’ would like nothing better than the creation of a rift between our Board and supporters, which would result in a reduction in SB money for our Club …. Which would then reduce the current wide gulf between us and the WATP club…..stay united …. We are almost THERE, Bhoys……!!!!!!!

     

     

    3)……if the Agent Whyte story is ‘pulled’ from the SUN tomorrow, then we know we are in a real battle, which we will win, if we stay UNITED …….hail hail to the good ghuys…….it has taken many years to defeat their WATP mentality …… We must not let ourselves to be blown off course at this critical stage……united we stand, divided we fall…..

  5. jude2005 is Neil Lennon \o/

     

     

     

    Question is Did FRANCISgo the same way as the eggs benedict?

    Corkcelt (in the morning) – i didn’t hope that things could be as tight for them as they may be , but i think the last couple of seasons have been a perfect storm for them. Everything that can go wrong , has and even when things appear to go right , eg Dr Poon’s minoritory verdict on the EBT’s , it just opens the door to another dose of hurt .

     

     

    I must admit , i started off with a , comparatively , gleeful approach to their demise (and the joy of NOT having to experience the worst of their culture) but as time went on and it became obvious that they

     

     

    1. weren’t going to show any remorse

     

    2. were going to get assistance vritually wherever they need it

     

     

    I have become resolute in my belief that scottish football NEEDS a future that doesn’t involve them and is based on basic french principles

  10. Does anyone know if the SFA punished Craig Brown for this?:-

     

     

     

     

    “Motherwell boss Craig Brown admitted to throwing a punch after being pushed by Kim Brink, one of the Danish side’s directors, during their 1-0 second-leg defeat.

     

     

    Brown was spoken to by the police after the altercation with a visiting Odense official during his side’s Europa League exit at Fir Park.

     

     

    The 70 year old, whose side missed a host of chances as they fell to a 3-1 aggregate defeat, said: “The police have spoken to us. I think it was their sporting director that got a bit carried away.

     

     

    “I don’t know why but he came to our dugout. I think he was a bit displeased.

     

     

    “We had a wee bit of a disagreement, putting it euphemistically. I got a shove and I had a retaliatory punch.

     

     

    “I’m a calm guy but if anyone is old enough to remember when I played the game, I was accused of being quite aggressive.

     

     

    “I don’t want to get messed about and I wasn’t going to be messed about.

     

     

    “The police spoke to me and they spoke to him afterwards. They are taking no further action and he has apologised, he said it was uncharacteristic and the police thought it was not behaviour befitting a visiting official.

     

     

    “They asked me if I wanted to take the thing any further and I said no.

     

     

    “You want to keep these things in football and, anyway, it could have been the other way around.”

     

     

    Brown was able to see the funny side of the incident.

     

     

    “I fancied myself,” he said. “If it had been Archie Knox he might not have wanted to continue the dialogue.

     

     

    “It wasn’t a big deal, it was handbags. I don’t know what his problem was, I think he was annoyed we got a penalty.”

  11. Not around this weekend to join the CQNers at the demo but if some has a camera with them can you get some pics for the next magazine please? Also who wants to write the report on what happens etc?

     

     

    I have also copied the list of those attending to add to the bottom of the pages of the next CQN ANNUAL – those who purchased the Annual will know that we added a list of CQNers at the bottom of the pages and people on here seemed to like that wee touch.

     

     

    Hope it goes well.

  12. Dermot/Pedro will engage a QC to advise Neil. It’s an attack from Ogilvie and in some ways more sinister than the bombs and bullets in the post. It’s the first time audio is used against a manager in Scottish football. Was the colourful language of the St Mirren dug out analysed or were the mics off. Lenny mentioned their bad behaviour at the weekend.

     

     

    If by some chance the board do not back the manager ; it will infuriate the support and drive a wedge between both and as Greenwells Glory mentioned would result in a dramatic collapse in ST sales.

     

     

    Celtic see the attack by Ogilvie and will act accordingly.

  13. From @EdgarBlamm via twitter.

     

     

    RM poster “In The Know” (same guy who correctly called LNS outcome in advance) says The Sun have caved in to Sevco re. Whyte story.

     

     

    You can always rely on the good old lamb munchers to bottle out of running a story concerning Sevco.

  14. Snake

     

     

    Probably but, if UEFA chose not to punish that sort of thing, why are the SFA going after miked up language infringements?

     

     

    I mean, if the 4th official clearly held an insulting aggressive statement from Mr. Lennon, should they not have warned him about it at the time? I don’t recall seeing any official approach the dugout or the manager after the incident, though I was in the opposite stand at the time.

  15. Winning Captains, I’ll be taking my camera along. I will also make available the final artwork of the banner. Moonbeams and I may collaborate on an article, I’ll talk to him about it.

    ++++++++++++++++++++

     

    I think 50% might be on high side, was thinking 25 to 30% myself.

     

     

    It was the pursuit of CL cash that has caused the crisis in our game because the rewards were so high for winning and the consequences so bad for losing out.

     

     

    In an interdependent business that depends on competitors being just that, it does not make sense to create conditions that kill off the competition.

     

     

    Its not as if the £5m surrendered is going to fund a player who will win the CL for us.

    We should be liberating all that oppressed money from the British Virgin Isles, Monaco, Leichtenstein and Switzerland.

     

     

    They haven’t got a proper army between them.

  21. A wee bit off topic from the article, however, why is the MSM reporting that the SPL has ‘demanded’ that newco/sevco/hunco pay the cost of lns enquiry? If my reading skills have not rapidly declined, then I am certain they have made an application to the hearing to determine who should pay? Also how can chuckles still claim that they won?? They were found guilty on all counts?

     

    Can’t wait to hear about sir craigy’s claim today, floating charge? Tax he did pay? his pound back? Goin to be funny thats for sure ;-)

    I see thousands of investors have launched a joint compensation claim (class action) against RBS (http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-business-22013724).

     

     

    Anyone else see a case for thousands of Celtic shareholders doing something similar for income / profit lost over cheating by old Rangers?

     

     

    This is currently being looked at, watch here for an update

     

     

    Hail Hail

     

    =======================================

     

    One way to keep the shareholder interest in a just solution is via the AGM by placing a resolution before it that Celtic must respond to if the resolution gets enough signatories behind it.

     

     

    The timing and numbers needed are crucial but the CST can advise on that.

     

     

    The actual resolution needs some thought so that it is not easily dismissed by anyone.
