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.

Neil did direct the volley to Goodwin who admitted that it was ‘football banter’ and that his response-not picked up by the mics-was much worse.
For everything that went on during that game and Neil’s reaction to it and they focus on this. Easy way out for the cowards.

I would laugh if it wasn’t so sinister.
Thank the Lord they don’t have mics in ol Bar67 ;-)

Discreetly not discretely . !
Sweet Fanny Adams CSC -Way down south.
I love Jim Goodwin to write to the SFA and admit that he is a fa**y but he’s not sure about the hard man bit.
maybe Neil has been charged because the Daily Record chose to carry a 2 page story about it, centred around the St Mirren captain who was basically just laughing it off…

I’m not sure if TFPLG swears but I do remember the previous manager assaulting a member of his staff on live TV at Rugby Park. He smacked Ian Durrant on the head to get down to the technical area whilst he was banned from said area. There was a fat man making a total erse of his team.
He was never charged by the SFA whilst the fat man now has his job.
LB
this is not a court of law though, this is a football association that has its own rules to apply, such as, severely punishing those who take legal action against them.
Without fear or favour.
Or maybe not.

I read Goodwin’s comments earlier he laughed it off and, as you say, admitted his reply was much worse than Lenny’s remarks.

Dharma @15:47 the SFA are bound by the law of the land. It doesn’t stop at the turnstile.
I acknowledge that the SFA still think otherwise.
..first there as Farry……..
………..now there’s a fa…….
Until Ogilvie is removed we will have to continue putting up with this crap..
Peter I sincerely hope as a Celtic supporter of 45 years that you are working on this..
Disband the SFA..

Did you only start supporting Celtic when you were 13?? ;-)

Come on. Give us the scoop.
I want to know what Paul67 really thinks of us lot.
I don’t know whether Jim Goodwin’s a fanny or not, but I heard he’s a mason.
Hamiltontim
Ya cheeky B, I know I had a tough paper round but…..
Get oan wi’ yer painting you!
Neil should say he was using the American reference to that word and it’s just the SFA’s bad minds that see offence in it… :)
In N.I. fanny is slang for fantastic. Neil was just praising the guy.
The defence rests.

Jim Goodwin is a fanny

Seriously though, NL could come under the Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications (Scotland) Act 2012 if they deem the abuse from the North of Ireland man was sectarian to the South of Ireland fanny. :-)
Maximum penalty of an unlimited fine and 5 years in prison, that would give Super Sally at least a fighting chance?

I wondered where Vincent Loony had been hiding. It was in the St Mirren dugout! Sneaky C@nt..
However, they do have sanctions that can be applied if you do something like take them to court, sanctions which can have very serious effect on a football club that legally challenges them.
So, I think that Celtic need to be very careful in how they deal with this charge against Neil Lennon.

The guy who got leathered is a small time junkie/ drug dealer. And it was apparently people he owe money to who gave him his “lesson”. He’s not pressing charges but the cops have said they are taking it further because its a serious assault.
The mother in law, in her 60’s, is obviously a bit frightened of any repercussions as is the wife and I due to the fact she watches baby hendrix while we’re at work.
hendrix67 site was down. Answer the phone for her or be there next time they call, and politely tell them to eff off.
Sounds to me like they’re pumping the drug dealer for information.
What happened ……? ……did someone swear…? …….LOL
Get your Lawyers on to this one ,Celtic.
Then , once it’s sorted out, sue them for discrimination.

repeat just to keep up your record.. o))
Would this actually happen in Scotland……??????
Romance and weather in Scotland :
Weather Conditions :
Just got off the phone with a friend who lives in Scotland.
She said that since early this morning the snow has been nearly waist high and is still
falling.
The temperature is dropping far below zero and the north wind is
increasing to near gale force.
Her husband has done nothing but look through the kitchen window and just stare.
She says that if it gets much worse, she may have to let the drunken bassa in.
don’t think the club are allowed to sue SFA..
