Embarrassment for the guys at Newco who have to sign up to this guff

518

PSG were wonderful last night. They served up a great night of European football as we witness what may be the end of the greatest team of all time.

Mark Warburton fired his opening salvo against Newco with a joint statement with Davie Weir and Frank McParland issued through the League Managers’ Association today:

“We would like to formally place on record, that at no stage did we resign from our positions at Rangers.

“It is a matter of surprise to us, and to the League Managers Association, which is advising all three of us, that despite its detailed public statements, the club has not answered key questions put to it by the LMA, in writing, requesting an explanation of why it suggested that we resigned from our positions.”

I’m cringing with embarrassment on behalf of the guys at Newco who have to sign up to this guff, Stewart Robertson in particular, who has titular hands on the wheel but must feel like a hostage to fortune. This is not how he ran things at Motherwell.

More lawyers’ fees, more reputational damage, less chance of a credible future.

  1. Hope the sheep pull away from the comedy club making a chasm and a gap between us.

     

    Then the mini’s can hopefully overtake them.

     

    Oh what joy :)

     

    We will still give them a European place if we win the treble though as 4th place will take the Scottish Cup place.

     

    Then we can see them disqualified from taking part.

     

    Oh what joy again :)))

    Well…urr yi? ;))

  3. THETIMREAPER……………Wilkins and his ilk would say that would he not. The French do not enjoy the privelage of having four teams pitchforked into the group stage of the Champions League next season.

    I have seen Monaco a few times this season. They look a really good side.

  5. These are very strange times with employers having too much power.

     

     

    After a very high profile case, I now phone my boss every day to check if I’ve resigned.

     

     

    So far I haven’t but that may change tomorrow.

    Breaking a wee promise to myself but my understanding is that the various Employment Protection Acts are UK wide legislation. Ergo the League Managers’ Association, if it has accreditation in England has a locus to advise and assist its members wherever in UK they happen to be employed.

     

    This refusal, in my opinion, on spurious grounds should assist the complainants in any subsequent legal action. Undoubtedly their legal team will now be writing to Dignitas FC. HH

    I only got into an eastend engineering shop courtesy of an English HR boss who wasn’t having any of the crap. A year earlier and my o’ levels would have meant nothing, with one of their own, with no qualifications getting the apprenticeship. So I became the first Catholic (Celtic mad) apprentice in Templetons carpet factory 1971 (opened 1890).

     

    Having said that, for every bigot there were two or three good guys who took to me and strangely enough it was the ones who actually went to Ibrox who were alright.

  8. AN TEACH, do you not realise that any club from Ibrox Park is not bound by any legislation, laws, articles of association, etc?

    I know that “they” have carte blanche to do as they like but even judges with thirty third or higher “degrees” would find it difficult (IMHO) to rewrite the law to suit King. But, then, the rule of the craft outweighs the rule of Parliament. HH

  13. Exslaemuirbhoy,

     

    maybe he is Frambo67,

     

    he was on a while back telling us of a £15m investment into Sevco

    So not a cheep on shortbread TV about Warburton statement. Wilson on Shortie radio reading from a level 5 script, going round the houses and saying nothing to upset his masters.

     

    As per usual, and insult to any listener’s intelligence.

    Wow. An outstanding post.

     

    Jim Duffy on RC asked Gerry McCulloch, “Has any journalists contacted Nottingham Forrest and and the question, did you offer the job”. Hahaha.

    Re: Templetons, My wee mammys cousin came to live with us in the sixties from the Highlands, he ended up working in there (not sure what he done though).

     

     

    Big tall guy he could hunt geese with a rake if he wanted 2.

     

     

    Was a supporter of the long deed team from the west end, but defo a decent one, he took me to see the coal lorry tour in may 67, my old mhan couldn’t make it as my inconsiderate wee sister decided to make her debut on earth that day.

     

     

    Gordon his name, he also tried to convert me to the dark side but even at 6 I was 2 wise for them.

     

     

    Funny what jogs your memory on here I hadn’t thought of him for years.

    500 people worked there. A lot of tims in the main factory but as was usually the case, the engineering section was pretty much out of bounds for Catholics.

  22. The hun supporters might turn up at Ibrox but are unwilling to put any more money in, they expect a sugar daddy will turn up with millions to throw at the club, just like glib King
