Ex-ref taunts Neil Lennon with ‘explodes’ remark

1244

I think I live in a different world than some people.  In my world the manager of Celtic has endured an incredibly stressful month.  Yesterday he would have dealt with news from a serious criminal trial after a bomb was sent to him.

Today he is being taunted in a newspaper by a former referee who suggests he “explodes at the side of a park”.  Even for a former SFA official, this is astonishingly poor taste.  The article goes on to betray enormous hostility towards Neil Lennon and, for reasons which appear opportunistic, Peter Lawwell.

Our manager will get through these difficult weeks and will hopefully never have to endure such stresses again.  SFA officials, current or past, cannot meaningfully lay a glove on him.  He can pay their fines and will continue to manage a winning Celtic team.

    You don’t think for a moment the man with no contract was working for free? Funny also that the calls for his knighthood have gone quiet. I wonder if that has anything to do with him being in on the EBT.

    If Smith had one then hopefully this will come out eventually.

  2. And after tonights revelations on CH 4 the headlines in the Scottish rags will bill……..

     

     

    suggestions on a post card!

    Someone on RTC has pointed out that Simply The Best is an anagram of Simply the EBTs!

  4. I don’t recall ANY of the Scottish succulent lamb brigade putting together such a damning indictement of Rankers as Alex Thomson did in 5 minutes tonight.

     

    Yes,I want ‘them’ dead & gone,buried,incognito,forgotten…..not in a footballing sense- they’ve never played football anyway,just ‘murderball–but because they have long been a fascist criminal organisation. Well,they can no longer claim The Nuremberg Defence,and they should not have threatened A.T. They may get away with that kind of guff on their own turf,i.e. parts of Scotland.

     

    These days Rankers represent the worst of the Loyalist tendency. They have spread their bigoted Shankhill Butcher ethos to a whole new generation of Orange illiterates in Scotland,where they think they have fertile ground to perpetuate their thuggery.

     

    It’s evident in every aspect of Rankers,from the boardroom to their ill-educated shock troops–their twisted version of fans.

     

    And,like many of us,I won’t be content until I can look upon their remains and feel safe that they won’t rise again.

    Aye. A new club requires a ground, a training facility and players.

     

     

    A lot of, ahem … administration to be sorted out – and no one is quite sure what an angry Hector will do…

    We can only wonder what levels of abuse Regan had to endure by the lunatic in question.

     

     

    If he didn’t know what they were like before the meeting he certainly does now.

    That says it all about them …… Thank God I was born into an honest hate-free culture….and that, as a supporter of Glasgow Celtic, I have never had to hang my head in shame…..

     

     

    When we had our (legal) financial difficulties, we were sad, and ‘dug deep’ to help our Club…..

     

     

    They are ‘ANGRY’ and won’t dig ‘deep’, since their motivation is so different from ours ………they love hating, simple as that

  12. The following week we played them again in the league.

     

     

    1) What was the score?

     

     

    2) Who scored the goals?

     

     

    3) Which hun was sent off?

     

     

    4) Which Celt allegedly asked Butcher in the tunnel prior to the game, “How did you get on in the cup last week?”

    they will give the impression they are digging deep…….legends game… stupid wee flags and scarfes but at the end of the day they will not save their club

  15. Best wishes to stand the man petrov and his family, a real celtic man who deserves all our thoughts.

     

     

    hail hail

    I still hope Regan is genuine in wanting to clean things up, he really is in the midst of pure scum within that organisation, and it must be a horrendous job to deal with so many deceptive characters.

     

     

    The thought is always gnawing away at the back of my mind that the SFA themselves selected him.

     

     

    The dam has definitely been breached tonight so we will see what transpires over the coming days.

  17. OG

     

     

    Now that is a surprise, he has gone up a notch, for a Toon man to go for them, he must be rather miffed :>)))

    The Prince

     

    Aye, it was funny and as apt as hell…….

    He’s from miner stock.

     

    And he’s going for them in the same way he’d go for us if the roles were reversed. It’s simply the right thing to do. He can smell the stink of corruption, in business and sport and media complacency hundreds of miles away in London. He thrives on it.

     

    He’s a reporter, not a man with a byline to go with his ever-expanding waistline
