Alexander (Sandy) Bryson has been mentioned in reports concerning another controversial matter in SFA history. He was Head of Registrations when Celtic tried to register Jorge Cadete in 1996. That case led to SFA chief executive, Jim Farry, being dismissed for gross misconduct after he failed to register the player in time for him to face Rangers in a Scottish Cup tie.
The Burness report into what happened noted that Farry “deflected responsibility to Mr (Sandy] Bryson (head of registrations] …. (on] certain executive decisions”. In a contemporary article, Mirror Group Newspapers noted “it is unclear what part registration chief Sandy Bryson may have played in this debacle”.

Now we’re talkin….
ESPECIALLY, as this blog is full of namsy pamsies at times :)))
Last post is Matt’s home page. The pub doon near the station I suppose does it’s best. But Matt was one of our best folk singers. He was a bit of a tim as well. God bless.x

I rarely delve into folk music.
However I recently bought The Best of The Humblebums. It is astonishingly good.
BTW,Richard Thomson,a personal fave,is on Jools Holland,11pm Monday.
You still in the NE?
FFS That website’s TOO up to date :))
But very important, and what better place to get it back out there !
And for any lurking huns, read the words and look at yourselves !!

Collective responsibility …Ogilvie must go now
Any acquiescence on CFCs part to allow him to continue is craven and entirely unacceptable

Not just you ….bad enough with the prospect of Efe at CB …
I think Lenny has a really difficult call to make at CB…..Wilson is a given …but with who …
With Broonie injured ..it can’t be Wanyama
Kayals poor form suggest Mulgrew will be needed in midfield
IMO it only leaves Rogne …Efe has lost it at the moment and can’t be trusted

Some song. Might encourage you to regress to your wall-flower behaviour again though, in which case, don’t listen to it twice – send it to Campbell O.
Good luck :)) (recorded del. mind! We don’t do nail b~@s, just words of peace ! )
By the way !, oor Pedro last week was in the company of someone who knew this fella well !! :))

Whit a song.
Good music helps take the edge off of the shite us Tims have to deal with…..
OK sorry, just came on to make a wee comment, then someone mentioned Matt McGinn.
A bit of a hero of mine, and I was actually disappointed I couldn’t find some of his better songs. A working class hero. If you cannae be bother looking back, than at least search out ‘Dominie’.
I know many dont agree, but for me Celtic is education, inclusion and socialism.

Keep up you auld fecker :))
Matt’s songs are worth posting every night, especially to any Celtic Supporter.
You’ve got more up your sleeves with stories. Share them!!!!
What part should sandy brysons testimony play in proceedings. What does it matter if there was an advantage gained or not.
rangers were found guilty of deliberately cheating and that should have been all that mattered.
You might as well have an ex pro say that the illegally registered players were not that good so no advantage gained.
Advantage should not even have been considered, and it’s as pathetic a get out as you could get.
All involved in this scam have poisoned scottish football.

The entire Hun ,Oldco / Newco saga has been and is an exercise in Orwellian new management
History is changed to suit and aspects of the present are reported absent of any pejorative aspects however real and relevant they may be

Ive not been able to see the last few games, seems like Ambrose’s confidence has taken a knock after the failed rushing back onto the side v Juventus.
If dont need to we should not tinker with the centre half partnership, its no coincidence daft goals have been lost when we have changed it from Wilson and Ambrose.
The manager having went with Ambrose in the first Juventus game has to sort things out, its a problem of his own making.

Whilst all this feels horrific, rejoice in how good Celtic are at this moment in time!!!!!
Why was he imprisoned in Peterheid??
The same reason as today. The most outspoken person today is only a smidgeon of the threat they were to the forces of finance in the early 20th Century, where the Federal Reserve established itself as a governing bank when it was nothing but a small group of bankers with no money, and no gold.
While you laugh or dismiss what I just said in that paragraph, take a step back and remember that your own grandparents were involved in the repercussions of this. Boys aged 14+ forced to fight the 1st World War on behalf of the UK while the same country oppressed Ireland to an extent that preceded Hitler in WWII.
Aye, but the performance of Efe Ambrose is far more important than any of that nonsense. FFS.

Old rangers recieved some crazy spin and lies from their media but the history of them is getting blatent lies on front pages. Honestly cant believe that fron page today, thought it was a far fetched photo shop at first.

Totally agree. Only took an interest in this due to the sheer madness of it.
Saw idiots claim yesterday that was them finished with Celtic, madness.

Pardon?
rejoice wisnae the right word, not when we still have the Green Brigade being harrassed.
I am sure The Excellent Green Brigade will be the first to renew their books next season despite yesterdays events.
Morning all.
CHEATS!!!
Back to bed.

Re club staying silent.
Normally I would agree with you on club staying silent and working behind scenes etc. . I am not sure we could be silent behind the sense etc given vested interests of others.
I find myself wanting the club to voice a strong view, which I understand it really has, on this issue and wider scottish society but this need is out of my own frustration.
Always good to take time and think through our response anyway and not react with haste Hopefully PL and board will be doing that and hopefully our supporters will respect that.
Pperhaps best hope is how this result landed with fans of other clubs ? Any sense if outrage there ? Any chance of a Trumbull Huttin champion emerging ? Maybe such a catalyst might help put forward balance ?
Good morning friends.
A beautiful dawn over EK this morning with a pastel coloured sky. Dry, bright and just a fraction milder than of late. An almost perfect Big Happy Friday. But somehow, that description doesn’t quite fit this week.

The LNS report was very condemnatory of the oldco board …..scarcely a mention
It may be that the DR are taking an opportunity to put pictures of Huns winning the SPL on their front page as they know that it will be one of the few occasions they will be able to justify it in the foreseeable future
Third party payments to employees (and others) will be examined by both BDO & HMRC. Other competitions may also be examined. They’re still died, chuckles is still a front and CW is still floating around like a hobby in a swimming pool.

I have been mulling over the issue re CFC comment since yesterday
I don’t think we can miscall the inquiry …I don’t think we can traduce LNS
However, in light if the report , Ogilvie must go now ….as a board member of oldco he is up to his neck in this …..CFC must demand his resignation
If we acquiesce is Ogilvie continuing in office we are condoning oldco cheating …
PF Ayr @ 07:07
“Pardon”? You’re excused.
Apols, ignore me. Seriously. Was actually enjoying the player-discussion too…….
Good morning CQNers,
I don’t believe I’m bitter, I try not to be.
I’ve always held the pessimistic view the Scottish establishment would not permit their club to be maligned but Paul67’s dissection of the FTT judgement over recent days gave me hope. Foolish me.
I’m 60 years old and this morning I’m saddened as I doubt I’ll be around long enough to see the denouement of this scandal. As in all these things where the establishment is involved it’ll be another 20 years before the truth emerges.
I see some knowledgeable posters are highlighting the linkage between LNS and the FTT decisions but this is a forlorn attempt to keep hope of justice alive.
This morning I accept his lordship’s decision, I accept it was made in good faith and I’ll maintain my stoicism.
I’m not bitter – my dear mother saw her 95th birthday and you never know.
