For the love of the game. And endurance of Ally McCoist

1247

Close to 100 people agreed to participate in the Scottish FA’s disciplinary panel, as Neil Lennon put it yesterday, “for the love of the game”.  Processes were established and although panel members would meet and be introduced to club officials who were subject to their decisions, they were granted freedom from publicity in order for them to hand out punishments free of intimidation.

This freedom has now gone.

Such was the reaction to Ally McCoist’s public demand to know the names of the panel members who judged the actions of his club the SFA felt it prudent to select panellists who were happy to expose themselves and their places of employment to the outcry the original panellists endured.  IF they uphold of increase the penalties.

On Wednesday evening we should find out whether intimidation of the SFA works.

The biggest scandal of all is that despite the consequences of McCoist’s actions, the SFA have taken no disciplinary action against him.  Rangers officials are free to react to the appeal judgement in the same manner as the original without fear of consequence.

Other managers who are pursued for more prosaic matters might consider the SFA panel have something personal against them.

    What a clown. All they’d have to do was point out to him that liquidation and asset sale would raise more for the creditors than BK or TBK. End of discussion.

     

     

    Stupid stupid hun.

    Seems like there is at least one intelligent hun kicking about then.

     

     

    Interesting that his perfectly reasonable post was immediately censored. I expect Ally demanded to know where he lived and Dingwall sent the gestapo round…

    Sorry to hear your sad news,hope you all have a great day tomorrow!!

    re the PC from TBK .

     

    had to laugh at Kennedys …..my lawyers have told me if we are to do a complete CVA , I have to have my guys in there at 9am tomorrow at the latest .

     

    after that it will be too late .It reminded me of the old action films ,were the bomb is primed and the hero fights tooth and nail as we watch the timer count down .

     

    Only this time the hero did not stop the bomb with a second to spare ,no big bang this morning at 9am ,just the same s**t different day down Govan way .

     

    A lot of people were wondering what Bill Millers interest in ragers was ,I think people should ask the same of Kennedy .

     

    Just listening to Jabba squirming every time anyone mentions SDM involvement in this sham

    This was covered by D&P in their press conference last night. First time that I had heard the liquidation option being so explicitly stated.

    no gone anywhere the night, and be missing most of tomorrow too,

     

    unseen fenian hand decided there’d be few partick tims at the game tomorrow, First Communion at St Peters.

    shady, yes indeedy. I realised that they do, after all, know what their job is.

     

     

    I’m surprised that Dingwall and BK appear to have missed that statement. Ho hum.

  8. Kennedy is despised down here by Stockport fans.

     

    He moved in with Sale to ground share.

     

    Bought the football club and the around.

     

    Then sold the football club keeping the ground for Sale.

     

    Stockport lose their place in the EFL. Go to the conference now have to pay rent to play in their ground.

     

     

    He has just moved to a new stadium built by Salford Reds RL team.

     

     

    Stockports ground is in the middle of town next to train station. I expect it to be sold off for property debe

    was at the TO today and spoke to one of the staff re the ‘non-consistent’ issuing of SB renewals , e.g. mini-Sanna has his but i don’t.

     

     

    Anyway , upon confirmation that i pay by DD , i was told that i’ll be renewed automatically and that the form will be sent out soon but merely as confirmation of my current details / intentions.

     

     

    So . no panic. Everything is till in hand

    1965-66

     

    Not in Europe

     

     

    Re that doing in Madrid.

     

    A tale recounted to the late Jimmy Sanderson by Willie Henderson.

     

     

    Rangers were told to take the field before the game and duly enetred the arena to wait on the mighty Real joining them.

     

     

    As they stood nervously waiting the lights went out and a solitary beam of light was shone on the players tunnel.

     

     

    Majestic in their brillaint all white strip Real Madrid stepped on to the Bernabeau to thunderous acclaim.

     

     

    Henderson turns to Ronnie McKinnon and says…

     

     

    “Hey big man, I think we are gonnae get f***** the night!”

     

     

    He was correct!

     

     

    140 years ago this month The Rangers played their very first game at Glasgow Green drawing 0-0 with Callender FC (Rangers must have missed the penalty!).

     

     

    According to one of their historians..”The story of Rangers is one of sport’s great romantic stories: from the humble beginnings in 1872 – four young students who had no pitch, no ball, no strips (playing in their very first game in ordinary clothes) – to the multi million pound organisation of today is a story surely unparalleled in the history of sport”

     

     

    How apt!

     

     

    I sincerely hope that tomorrow is their last ever game.

     

     

    Good riddance!

    I know the feeling, We have debated long and hard abut getting another but still after two years it is raw.

  20. Dave Bassett with some encouraging words for Sally.

     

     

     

     

    Bassett was ruthlessly removed when Green was put in charge at Bramall Lane, and he knows McCoist could end up in a similar position.

     

     

    “He is ruthless and he would have no concerns about sacking Ally McCoist if he had to,” said Bassett, who was forced out after eight years with the Blades.

     

     

    “Green came in with the sole intention of getting rid of me.

     

     

    “He was going to make changes. I had been there eight years and when a new owner comes in he normally doesn’t want the manager who is there.

     

     

    “Any new owner wants to pick their own manager.

    We have a moral responsibility to empathise with our Rangurs supporting aquaintancies. To help identify which part of the grieving process they are currently going through we should remember the moniker of DAGBA : Denial,Anger, Grief, Bargaining & Acceptance.
