Chaotic life of SPL chief exec

957

The seemingly chaotic life of the Scottish Football League chief executive, David Longmuir, appears more predictable after First Division clubs made their feelings on league reconstruction known. Significant amounts of trickle-down money is available from the SPL to second-tier clubs from next season if they vote to merge the league organisations, which is likely to result in an 18 team bottom league. Longmuir managed to put a spoke in the wheels of a considerable majority in favour of reconstruction but his hopes will be denied.

Three weeks ago we reported speculation that Longmuir aspired to a job at Newco Rangers. Yesterday he responded by saying, “I know there are different expressions of conspiracy going on but I don’t deal in conspiracy, I deal in fact and honesty”. You can bookmark that for future reference.

I predict that the conspiracy will soon merge with fact and honesty – if Newco can still afford to recruit next season.

    You’d have to have a heart of stone not to laugh.

    Ever been more appropriate than when applied to the STUPID STUPID deluded huns.

    Looks like Whyte and Green were in cahoots to ensure the CVA failed ,thus killing the huns.They wouldn’t have had the chance to make as much money as now.A job for Alex Thomson?

    Ask Mr HT if he can organise my wee get together for next week please :)

  10. Naïveté is thinking that scum like CG & CW will do business honourably….these kinda men are simply con-men.

     

    They care for nothing in their narcissistic pursuit of cash.

     

    They are proud of their duplicity. They lack honour. They are cold as the grave.

     

    And it all amuses them.

     

    It’s classic psychopathic behaviour.

     

    Sevco will wither over the years…..Green will shrug.

     

    There is no longer anything resembling a football club. Their ‘fans’ are an inchoate gaggle of headless chickens howling slogans towards a past now rendered meaningless by progress.

     

    It would be sad……..but they have paid the price of domesticated animals everywhere : they’ve been slaughtered, sold cheap and cast on the midden.

     

    They brought it on themselves, and they deserved it.

     

    Now…….had they allowed ‘decency’ to be part of their mindset we’d be in a different world.

     

    Slow, slow the rot takes them. Contempt is their lot.

  11. Whyte and Green remind me of two kids squabbling over a toy. The only answer is to take it away from both of them. Enter BDO?

    Just tell the other party you have a very important meeting with some liquidity experts (swallly merchants) and you can’t make it until next week :)))

    The Battered Bunnet – Lyle Lanley had the right idea for Traynor, Longmuir et al.

  15. Sevco infighting and sackings a sure sign the financial problems are very very bad. I’m loving it.

  16. Re RM. The overwhelming majority of comments posted would justify police intervention – threats to injure or main an individual. Regretting my curiosity got the better of me and i had a brief delve into the warped sense of reality that those who post on the RM blog inhabit. Didn’t see one post regarding Minty moonbeams part in destruction of RFC just continual threats to cause injury to CW ( it was all his fault). No one questions Chuckles fantasist rants, absolutely no considered discourse on the article just pure bile.

    Oh… don’t expect the Zombies to have a sudden grasp of reality.

     

     

    That is never going to happen. If nothing else, you should have learned that by now.

    from a classic Simpsons episode. Lyle , sold the town of Springfield a useless, unsafe, outdated, mono rail which they did not need. The comparisons are obvious…substitute the SFA for Springfield , mono rail for The Orcs , Charlie for Lyle……

    I was hopin’ old Lyle might be real, but it is getting harder to tell Ruth from Richard these days, down Edmiston Drive way.
