If Newco think SFA board member Gary Hughes is likely to be a thorn in their side due to his Celtic supporter credentials, or because he referred to (Oldco) fans as “the great unwashed” in 2006, I suspect they are mistaken.
Hughes was a member of the SFA board which last year decided decline the SPFL’s decision to investigate Oldco’s practices. What has now happened, due to the Daily Record’s splash on Hughes’ comment this morning, is that he is effectively neutered on the subject of Newco/Oldco.
None of this is likely to impact on the forthcoming action of Rangers licence to compete in European football in 2011, Gary Hughes has no influence there whatsoever. But it helps create a beleaguered narrative, should matters go against the Rangers group of clubs. And that lot, great or otherwise, do love a beleaguered narrative.

They call them urinal cakes in the USA.
Maris Crane’s inheritance was built on such things apparently.
Frasier CSC
Chairbhoy- an indirect hit on Maxwell,who PL spoke well of a few weeks ago……
Chairbhoy,
I think Glibby is the chairman of ,The Engine Room Subsidiary,you know,the holding company that replaced the,er,other thingummyjig thing.You must know it.The thingimybob that no one had ever heard of before 2012.
He is chairman of that.What’s that?,name a previous chairman before 2012 of the aforementioned thingummyjig.
I am sure there must be one.Was there not?

Maris Crane always looked like she was sucking on a used one.
So Sevco try to get their retaliation in first a typical Nazi trick.
Stand to be convicted again via the compliance officer of of guess what? – yes that’s right lying to the SFA.
A ‘glib and shameless’ attempt even by their standards to imply that there an anti Sevco agenda before the punishment.
Did the history include the ability to lie, no wonder they wanted their expert on board SS Sevco.

I am hoping to take advantage of the vast thesaurus of geographical and historical knowledge on the CQN resource. Myself and Mrs H are heading to Germany for this year’s R&R outing.
We have 3 nights in a hotel in Berlin, followed by 4 nights in an apartment in Nuremberg, and finish off with a week in an apartment in Munich, where we will maybe hire a car for a few days.
Any tips or recommendations would be graciously received, and specifically I would like suggestions as to a scenic village/small town to visit by car or train as a day trip from Munich. Any restaurant and/or bar recommendations in either of the three cities would be welcome.
Thanks in advance…

Either of the three cities?… hmmm. Any?

!!BADA BING!! @ 4:13 PM,
Yes, it seems they do not like the Regime Change. Sevco will need SFA support above and beyond that the SFA have to Rangers in 2012.
There is an interesting Stewart Regan interview, when the SFA went after Craig Whyte in 2012 and the SMSM were asking why the SFA hadn’t dealt with him earlier…
– he’s [SR] insisted it was impossible to point the finger of suspicion [at CW] while the Gers seemed happy to have him…
Now what a statement by the SFA CEO…
Maybe Mr Maxwell isn’t so malleable
TURKEYBHOY @ 4:14 PM,
Re the article about players at the World Cup, the document in this link explains how clubs are compensated.
From 14 days before the competition until their last day of participation, a clube is paid US$8,530 / about £6,375 per player per day.
We have 4 players (Lustig, Boyata, Gamboa and Rogic) so approx £25,500 * 14 days for preparation = £357,000 The groups period lasts another 14 days so another £357,000.
Minimum total £714,000 for Celtic.

Yes, we have seen some distortions over the last month as who are the Gers?!
They are the same Club, yet when it comes to legacy legal and sporting liabilities that’s a DIFFERENT matter…
Hail Hail
Level 5/King’s panic move, could mean the SFA House of Huns is collapsing…

Always worth a visit. Get S-Bahn to end of the line to the Ammersee then Bus up to Brewery/Monastery. Visit the bar at the station whilst waiting for your train back. Excellent restaurant at the Monastery. Watch wee nuns knocking back the odd Liter of Bockbier abv 7%

If you have a car in Nuremberg this place Rothenburg ob der Tauberis about 100k away – beautiful medieval town with a famous tower.
Park Rd/Dallas.
Mr Asumption ( that will be me ) was wrong (again )
Rob Roy lost their quarter final 2.0 against Blantyre Vics, a big shock there, as Vics are two divisions below Rob Roy.
Cumbernauld will be at home to Blantyre Vics in the semi.
Good luck to Girvan in the play offs.
Hail Hail
Ps that’s from Munich of course ???
There is plenty to see in Nuremberg itself – museums, castle and of course
Hausbrauerei Altstadthof
Rangers seemingly announced at 17.00 that all visiting fans will now be situated in the corner between the Broomloan and Sandy Jardine stands.
Hail Hail
Paul Brennan has replied because playing to the galleries is,always better than tackling your problems. Hope it keeps King in situ for a while longer.
Hail Hail
Sevco have banned us from the Broomloan, pathetic bassas
Fine we can give them the wee section at CP. 2,300 seats
POG, GENE
Thanks very much guys, I will investigate. ?

If true, then it’ll be 800 tickets they will give us for the corners section. We should reciprocate with a similar amount (in the restricted view corner of CP).
Rangers fans have long called for Celtic’s allocation to be cut at Ibrox and travelling Hoops fans, like the rest of the away supporters, will now be allocated around 800 tickets.
Pure Ragin FC
Means season tickets for that end will be full price – if Celtic do like wise.
Be rude not to CSC
Pardon me bhoys, i never knew that section held so few, i think Sevco might rewiew this….
Hunderburds the Jewelled Skeletons in Waldsassen are well worth trip from Nuremberg. https://www.itinari.com/explore-the-jeweled-skeletons-of-germany-n3hu

Might it be possible to buy a ‘second half’ ticket so that Tims can fill the many empty seats when 3,4or 5 nil at half time?
HH jamesgang
Hunderbirds – there are very good deals on regional rail passes in Germany.
The 2 of you can travel after 9 am or whatever anywhere in Bavaria for 30 Euros total for a day but you can’t go on the fast IC trains.
If you have a beautifully clear day (not worth doing otherwise) and get out early, i would go to Garmisch Partenkirchen (1 hr 20) in the Bavarian Alps and take the cog train to the top of the Zugspitz – 2670m or just under 10,000 ft for fantastic views.
Regional passes –

We shouldn’t take any tickets for the sevco away game por cierto

Great show… but Maris was never actually seen or heard …
Sitting in McChuills after a long old day. Ideal! Word of the Day will be posted when I get home.
Interesting that Sevco have cut our allocation. I would expect Celtic will reciprocate. My only concert about this is that the £49’ers ? will need to find another stick to beat people with.
C’est la vie

I concur with Gene regarding Nürnberg plenty of places to seas well as Munich.
Munich restaurants and bars:
Haxnbauer Restaurant is a must unless you are vegetarian. https://www.kuffler.de/de/restaurant/haxnbauer/
My favourite bar is the Andechser am Dom next to the Marienkirche – good food and drink. https://www.andechser-am-dom.de
Schneider Brauhaus on Tal no 7. https://www.schneider-brauhaus.de
A visit to the Viktualienmarkt beer garden is worth a visit, just a stone’s throw from Marienplatz.
The Englischer Garden and the Chinesischer Turm with its beer garden, food and oompah band.
That’ll keep you going in Munich.
Another day visit worth doing, 2 hours on the train and what a scenic route, is Salzburg in Austria. You can get a return Bayern ticket on the train (reduced rate) despite the fact that Salzburg is not in Bayern.
Loads of zombies were using us getting their seats as an excuse not to pony up, now their bluff has been called…
Hibs proved already that nobody needs the much fabled “bloo poon “…
Reciprocate Reciprocate Reciprocate….
If any team in Scotland doesn’t need the
” bloo poon ” its got to be us.
Imho loads of Celtic fans that get moved when the scum come wrecking will be celebrating tonight..
H.H
3 celtic players make into the SPFL team of the year …. Brown, Tierney and Forrest
PC- I would be quite happy if it was home support only, our Bhoys could handle it on the pitch, not so sure about thems…
Please boycott doomdome now all Celtic supporters. I have not been in that cesspit in more than a decade. Don’t miss it one bit.
Shower of scum.
