Don’t mention the (boardroom) war

1004

With financial projections which provide entertaining reading, Rangers International promoted director, Walter Smith, to the position of chairman.  Smith immediately proclaimed, “Unity among the directors is vital”, although he was not asked about the forthcoming EGM where fellow directors Malcolm Murray and Chris Morgan face dismissal, while a third director, Charles Green, suggested he was going to resign by today, but has not got around to filling out the form yet (does this guy have ‘form’ when it comes to filling Companies House forms?)…..

They don’t do unity very well.

The only show in town is season ticket sales; for all clubs.  Maybe Celtic should appoint Martin O’Neill to the board for a few weeks to allow the newspapers to provide some bluster for those who more convinced by headlines and sound-bites than strategy?  Perhaps not.  Let’s stick to plan.

Lisbon Lion in Ayrshire, send reinforcements!

Willie Wallace will be at Waterstons in Ayr from 1-3pm this afternoon, get along (with camera) if you can.

Tomorrow Willie will be at the Celtic Superstore from 12-2pm before going to the Celtic Shop, Clydebank, from 3.30-5.30pm.  Get out and meet the man.

Great to meet so many people at Waterstons, Stirling, last night. The store sold out of Willie’s autobiography. There was actually a queue of people waiting to enter the store at one point.

Just a few days left on the auction for the signed Messi strip, a magnificent piece of football memorabilia. Keep an eye on it here.

    Every team in the EPL has been promoted at one time during its history – which team has the lengthiest period since last promoted.

  4. Saragossosea, Elland road, front wheel came off our hired van on way down. Regarding game, I thought all the Leeds hard men were scared stiff of Bertie.

     

     

    I recall a game at Ibrox (believe it or not was working there on their new stand to 6 in the morning of the game), when wee Jimmy was being kicked by Provan, until Wee Bertie came over and broke his leg and wasn’t even booked and still had that famous smile after doing the job. His reputation went before him. In my opinion the greatest (or the most loyal )Celt of all

    Only 1 promoted team has ever won the EPL – Man City.

     

    Only 1 promoted team has ever finished 2nd in the EPL – Newcastle.

     

    Team that has gone the longest number of years since they were last promoted – Arsenal promoted in season 1914-15.

  11. Cowiebhoy, there were 13 answers he can get 2 wrong and still have 11. Obviously your counting is on a par with your spelling.

  12. Q4?

     

     

    Name the teams that have had 4 separate spells in the EPL?

     

     

    Not telling you how many – but will only take your answers in the order you post them – get all right but post more than the actual number and they wont count.

    Awful news. Quite awful.

     

     

    She and the family have a long road to travel now, but there is no inevitable destination. There are a lot of stops along the way.

     

     

    With your family’s love she will shine.
