Cadete scandal casts shadow

1236

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”.

    There’s different ways to confront corruption, Celtic have and do, confront it, but not in the public glare.

     

     

    I buy a season ticket, the players take the field, that’s confrontation, and you knew before today’s whitewash that Celtic were disadvantaged and we didn’t need LNS to tell us.

     

     

    If it was up to me running Celtic I’d be applying to whichever league would have us, and I would make it, my raison d’etre to leave these shores, but I doubt very much, we went into that detail, with for example Magner’s?

     

     

    Meanwhile, for me and thousands of others, we should allow nothing to spoil their continued absence.

    Dont get annoyed at their record books, they are meaningless even more so after today, our ten in a row should be the box office thing we should be getting appetite for. Its there on a plate for Lawwell etc, make a big thing of it, it will work well in a lot of ways.

     

     

    Heeeee’re weeee gooooo teeeeeeeeeen in a roooooooooooow.

  3. By the way, in the only photos I can find of Mr Bryson anywhere on the net he is wearing a lovely blue shirt and blue tie. Just saying….

  4. HT and others talking about 10 in a row.

     

     

    Seriously! After watching and digesting Scottish Football corruption live and in full view this last few years, what makes you believe Celtic Football Club will ever be allowed to win 10-in-row.

     

     

    The Hun Mark II will be back in the premier Scottish football division within 2 years if not less. They will be assisted to win a title within 3 years of their return from the dead.

     

     

    I’m really PMSL at you guys who believe Celtic will ever be allowed to win 10-in-row.

     

     

    Think back to how bad it was when we were trying to go for 4.

     

     

    Albeit we shot ourselves in the foot eventually would the Hun have been near us to take advantage if it were not for seriously dodgy decisions benefitting them throughout that whole season either directly or indirectly.

     

     

    MWD really PHSL

  5. just left the boozer before

     

     

    the five stars are still there was the comment from the scum…

     

     

    now I know why I stopped drinking in the WEB… o((

     

     

    sad day for Scotland..

  6. Doc

     

     

    We have no choice but to accept it, cheats in scotland will prosper if they are of the same bone and blood.

     

     

    We can delude ourselfs that they are a new club, they are a reincarnation of the liquidated club, and they are gunning for revenge.

  7. Ellboy - I am Neil Lennon, YNWA. on

    Big Vic picked up a ban for the Aberdeen game last night.

     

     

    Lets play him and just call it an administrative error.

  8. After today’s corrupt decision,looking for an answer to the following question…..will the title the Huns(?) look like winning be title number 1 or 55?

  9. Football in Scotland finally died today – it gave up the ghost.

     

     

    …but Celtic Football Club is very much alive.

     

     

    Time to leave this corrupt cesspit – and find pastures new.

     

     

    HH!!

  10. MWD

     

     

    While your pissing your pants I’ll be cheering Celtic.

     

     

    Was there anyone in 1966 who anticipated the dominance that would follow?

     

     

    Keep the faith.

  11. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    Noone has told the bhuns that they were found guilty, and fined £250k………. What a shower of corrupt barstewards

    Remember from here… Any smartsandy or smartalec Sevconian….your club IS dead.. We know you cheated to win and karma liquidated you.

     

     

    You need us to react as it validates your existence. You don’t exist. A tribute act was illegally placed to allow you to vent weekly.

     

     

    You don’t exist anymore..

     

     

    This oldco argument is your desperation. The silence from Celtic board incenses you but tomorrow we ll awake with a club to support.

     

     

    Oldco died in 2012..

     

     

    Happy days…

     

     

    No faith in Scottish justice but happy days!

     

     

    HH

  13. Utterly sickened by the result, but watching SSN this evening with statements from Murray striking out at the “shameful treatment” of oldco then Chuck Green lording it over how they were pressured to give up titles but held firm knowing they were right.

     

     

    Many on here say to just enjoy that they are in the lower leagues, still making a loss with full stadia every fortnight, but they won’t go out of existence, they won’t be properly punished for their wrongs and they will get all the help they need to get back to the premier league. I predict that in 10 years this whole episode will be getting airbrushed from history.

  14. HT

     

     

    Your choice buddy.

     

     

    I’ve still to make mine.

     

     

    You can bank on this.

     

     

    There is more chance of Celtic winning the Champions League in the next 8 seasons after this than Celtic being allowed to win 10-in-a-row!

     

     

    Enjoy corruption.

     

     

    Choose corruption! Ignore sport, integrity, fareness & transparency! Support corruption by default! Get what you deserve!

  15. The omnipresent funky whiff that fogs Scottish Football and this country in general is as pungent as ever.I’m just happy that fortune landed me on the good side.

     

     

    FOREVER AND EVER!!!

    VertWolf – don’t like the ‘assured by the integrity of the process’ comment although do note the final paragraph about considering the detail.

     

    ………………………………………………………………………

     

     

    I think the SPL had to say that – they can be assured by the integrity of the process but still appeal on the grounds that they believe that LNS was supplied with a factually incorrect steer by the SFA

  17. Them that wield the power in Scottish Football continue to protect their demonic kin.

     

     

    The dark heart of Rangers beats on.

     

     

    I feel sick, so sick that even a herd of beers is not gonna cure this feeling.

     

     

    The sadness of injustice.

  18. The minimum Celtic should do is to publicly note that the decision made that there was no advantage is wrong, and that we, plus other Clubs have lost revenue as a result.

     

     

    So LNS has fined a non existant Club,it beggars belief. BUT NO SURPRISE.

     

     

    If the Celtic Board choose to say nothing then I feel they will have let down many supporters,who they take for granted anyway, and I believe this will have a severe impact on Season Ticket renewals.

     

     

    For the first time in 50 + years Home and Away I am questioning my future association subject to the Board reaction.

    ITs round about now HECTOR is having a wry smile to himself.

     

     

    You messed with the wrong marine!

     

     

    See you in court again, says Hector.

  20. tonybhoy72 – Others will be able to quote the SPL rulebook but I believe the SPL/SFA can only fine a ‘club’, not a company.

     

     

    The decision to fine Oldco ratifies the belief that rangers 2012 are a new club, unassociated with the crimes, misdemeanours and any other sporting history relating to oldco.

  21. pabloh_AKA_NEIL LENNON on

    Disgusting stuff on SSN all day and now STV news. STV clown mentioned 140yr history and keeping world record titles. He made no reference to the death of that club. He did however mention newco oldco. Of course. Because they are completely different things, aren’t they??

     

     

    Interviews with Murray, Mccoist and green. All pretty much saying there was a witch hunt, we never cheated and we’re owed apologies!

     

     

    Incredible! I’m not surprised but it’s amazing how they’ve spun this. Well not entirely, when the likes of green can say what he wants in this country with no punishment.

    After working all week often 7 days, taking only time out to go and see the sellick. I collect my earnings and divvy them up.

     

    I pay ALL my relevant taxes, pay my bills and what I have left is spent on following Celtic.

     

    Paying taxes. Paying bills, key phrases.

     

    A big so what, we cheated, get over it is being thrown at me on every channel and station.

     

    Something else they’ve gotten away with.

     

    This in the same week that my vat is due….again.

     

     

    WHAT IS THE POINT???

  23. MWD @18.29 that is pure bunkum

     

     

    celtic will be 2/10th of the way to 10 come march and no doubt we’ll be 4/10th of the way there come next season and the season after, after that 1 more title in sevco’s 1st season in the top league and it’s only 5 to go…

     

     

    any european final celtic get to in the next twenty years should be viewed as one to savour and seen as the only one we’ll get to in the next forty years as that’s how the gap between 70 (before i was born) and 03 felt.

  24. The whole saga shows that for 11 years those running the huns did so in a manner

     

    that showed no regard for the rules & regulations whether they be fiscal or sporting.

     

     

    The only satisfaction I get from this farce is where the zombies are now.

     

     

    Vindicated ? Dignity ? My A**e.

     

     

    So glad I am not a hun. The stench is rotten.

  25. “Campbell Ogilvie is a lovely man, a genuine man” says Billy Doddsman……

     

     

    Is it wrong of me to want to shoot out the radio with a RPG ?

  26. While I am as dissappointed as everyone else over todays decision.I find it hard to make any sense of the idea of ceasing to follow Celtic,surely NOW is the time to give our glorious club the backing they deserve,rangers cheated,that has been confirmed,the lack of appropriate punishment,while unfair,is hardly surprising,more importantly,the record books now show the cheating as a matter of fact.I

    Very true. Remember how they rigged the split fixtures so they managed to avoid a second visit to Tynecastle?

  28. We know that they are corrupt, they know that they are

     

    corrupt, the masonic cabal at Hampden know it also, the

     

    MSM selling this the same way they sold the verdict from

     

    tax tribunal, a victory for them.

     

    But every fair minded football supporter in Scotland knows

     

    that they get treated differently from everyone else, they

     

    can run but they cannot hide, they owe dozens of creditors

     

    they owe the tax man, they broke the rules, they cheated with impunity

     

    and yet continue to say that they are the victims, they are truly

     

    beyond contempt and parody, they have no shame.

     

    I will continue to Support my club with more vigour than in any

     

    the previous 50 years that I have supported them and will enjoy

     

    each victory that bit more, they cannot and will not break the bond

     

    and love I have for Celtic and the Celtic family.

    It would be their first honour. But NO ONE will report that. Only Celtic fans.
