In many places it would be practically inconceivable that someone could be employed in this position:
And get away with running rubbish like this on a back page cover:
But then you see more and get a picture of the organisation involved:
The Record have been caught displaying their inner culture and will no doubt be forced into a remedial action, but getting caught was just misfortune. The culture exists and has informed articles for years. They have gone too far down this road to even begin to understand what they’ve done to a once-strong demographic.
An echo reached me from 2012 today, which illuminated yesterday’s article. As the SPL debated serious issues in 2012, a consensus emerged on what subsequently took place. There were hold-outs to the new majority, however.
One director of a club near Glasgow (no guesses, now) made his position clear: “I’m not signing up to any f****** Celtic rulebook.”
The comment met with incredulity, as the Celtic rulebook wasn’t part of the conversation. Fans and clubs across the country came to the same conclusion about how our game should proceed. It was no more the Celtic rulebook than the Aberdeen, Hearts and Hibs rulebook, but prejudices occasionally seep out when people don’t get what they want.
This is what we’re up against. They are still out there, writing articles for the paying public, or voting on the future of our game.
As for the Celtic rulebook, I’ve seen it. It contains one page and only three words: “Pay your bills.” That doesn’t sound like much but remarkably, it may deliver 20-in-a-row. I hope others don’t start to copy us.

BMCUW, aye give me a chance to settle in and we’ll sort something out.

Ha! Dammit… sevco do ban the beeb! That argument is scuppered then :-)
Unless we accept that the TRFC and their predecessors can do what they like with impunity?
I hazard a guess if Celts try that .. the full force of law will be applied, with vigour!
HH
SALTIRES EN SEVILLA,
The Huns banned the Beeb for telling the truth.
We should be banning the (Spit) Record for constant anti Celtic stories/lies.
IsJustJoanstillthereCSC
Saltires en Sevilla makes a good point re who buys the red tops – my father in law (mid 70s) buys the Record & evening times every day – he doesn’t get the PR link or that these rags have an agenda to attract the larger demographic (not us).
They will be gone in 10 years, hopefully less… the papers not my in-law!
Carltontongues
Good point buddy!
Don’t get me wrong, I would horse the lot of them right now. Then invite them back, one by one..selectively. Proviso: “you can call us unrepentant Fenian Rebels..but don’t ever tell lies about us!”

Just back from ASDA and walked by the chip wrapper stall. DR headline made me chuckle Not so much the £6m for Barry Manilow but referring to RBB Leipzig as German giants, ffs.
German giants:
BVB Dortmund – undoubtedly
FC Bayern München- undoubtedly
Werder Bremen – close thing
Borussia Mönchengladbach – close thing
Schalke 04 – maybe (masssive support) but not successful
HSV Hamburg – fell asleep a long time ago
RBB Leipzig – not even close
It is not about the individual, it is about the despicable, perpetuating bigoted west of Scotland dollar scramble.
Coins in the bank are worth more than blood on the pavement.
Incitement, we never incited. No you didn’t, but you never once countered those that did.
Whose guilt is more sorrowful?
They who did it.
They who in silence allowed it to happen.
There is never a wrong time to do the right thing. Even if it means you have to stop being a coward and protect your children.
Chippybhoy
Thanks
You have expectations?
Just messin’ you covered that well :-)
I hate to admit MrsSeS sometimes appears back from shopping with a blatt… “I saw something about Erik Sviatchenko (she has a wee likey) ….”
Grrrrrrr x2 ;-)

Interesting to see Alan Clark’s previous experience on LinkedIn:
WATP Magazine,
The Rock River Times,
Copland Road Organization
Wonder if that helped him get the Record job?
Let’s build a lot of snowballs. Hopefully, someone will throw em.
Ibhoy
That cv would sail through the selection software
Straight to the gold stack candidates
Interview a formality :-)
For anyone still thinking about Lisbon
Ryanair doing Manchester to Lisbon for as cheap as £47 (Mon-Fri), it gets progressively dearer as you get into the SC Final weekend, however Mon-Sun – £72
If anyone is going to miss the final, these guys will be showing it
http://www.hennessys-pub.com/
They have around half a dozen tellys and will show whatever you ask them. I watched the LCF there in November
SALTIRESENSEVILLA
Just booked flights to Lisbon,so there’s week one of my five taken. As I don’t want to have three taken by then,looks like two fortnight trips,late summer and late autumn.
If I can convince my kid sis that the latter is actually early winter,she might even let me go to a match!
Btw,I know you’re just a loved-up newly-wed,but get the missus telt about her reading habits(!)
So he has been sacked.
Well done to whoever reported him.
TT
No surprise from that rag.
I get more annoyed at the insidious nature of the supposedly-impartial but clearly agenda-driven national broadcaster.
See Tuesday’s Sportsound for a clear example.
BMCUW
You have that holiday planning down to a fibe art. We will miss Lisbon unfortunately, but both heading to Vegas for FNACSC Convention.
Don’t get me started on that blatt buying stuff btw.
She is gorgeous, fun, Celtic daft, likes good music… I can even learn to live with the Erik fantasies…
Redtops? nah!
Could be touch & go buddy ;-)
TinyTim
Just means another will get the shift.
The Sun did the same a few years back. Slightly different, in as much, that reporter, created his own headline. Decided to contact UEFA about Celtic supporters choice of songs in the Camp Nou.
Then ran the story that UEFA were investigating…..
OWEN:
Couple of your posts deleted from last thread please do not threaten other posters.
ACGR:
Your my favourite too, couple of your posts deleted alas, language, one of which was okay to your sign off, nearly missed it due to long word…:)
Please tell me someone is at the wind-up with that McKay “story”?
I posted this after the game on Sunday as a half-joke:

“Leipzig coach hugely impressed by Barrie McKay – set to launch £10m bid”?
Of course there is no £6m from Leipzig or anyone else.
Just a way of getting his name “out there” so maybe some English club with more money than sense might worry that they are missing out on some “special talent” and waste £2m on the “starlet”.
Either that or the “starlet” turns down the non-existent bid to pledge his future to “Rangers” as they complete the “journey” and everybody is very happy!
Big Peat – if what you say is true i.e.
“If you buy the Daily Rectum, you are endorsing their anti-Celtic slurs and lies. Your call.”
Is it similarly true
“If you buy a season ticket, you are endorsing the anti Celtic , racist Scottish society (given that the celtic board are as ever doing and saying precisely nothing and have propped up the huns etc etc? ”
Daily record employs an anti celtic racist – what a shocker – whodavthunkit………..
Record Sun are nothing but ersewipes really surprised that Celtic fans still buy or read them HH

………………..
So it was you who gave them the idea. Do you work for Level 5?

And add that, Frankfurt, Cologne, Hertha, Stuttgart, Kaiserslautern and more. Red Bull are akin to Coventry, currently in dire straights, but never were or ever will be English giants, with or without Billionaire backing.

There was a sweary thread on the last thread and you missed it.

These lapdogs are like Russian Dolls, sack one, then another one pops out….
My son in law and his brother are Sevconians. I’ve actually t stopped putting them right over the Record headlines, except to say that the rag damages their club more than mine, by printing lies and fairy tales to suit the demographic. Sadly but dangerously too, they buy into it. It’s even sadder when I hear the odd ‘I never read that in the Record’ from resident tims in the Brazen.
All said and done, they have to be banned. The DR is simply bad for business.
SALTIRESINSEVILLA
Thanks,bud. The six night a week stuff really screws it up. Five would be easier to plan round.
I got an invitation to a right guid pal’s wedding a few weeks ago. Feb 18. God,I’d love to be there. Smashing fella,one you know right away is your kinda company. Hun or not(!)
Only way I can be there is to finish a night shift,bus to London,tube to Euston,train to Glasgow then Kilwinning. Repeat and back to Swindon in time for my next shift.
Not looking too promising,but I’m a resourceful bloke.
“Something will come up!”

Far too much integrity!
Can’t believe they went with such a low valuation!
And folk have the cheek to moan about The Donald being a groper :-)

Updated the story on Clark getting sacked by the Record to include a photo of him (he’s the one with the glasses) socialising with guess who?
Look and see…

Oh,that doesn’t look good!
Obviously he’s trying to blank out Celtic with his hand,but….oh,dear.
PMSL here. Thanks,old bean.
Just to remind everyone that the Scottish Cup 5th rd draw is on Sunday live after our game.
Stats for last 22 Scottish Cup draws:
Celtic -19 Away and 3 Home;
(The) R*ngers – 6 Away and 16 Home including last 6 draws over last 2 years
Perhaps they should list the numbers on screen before the first ball is drawn, not that I don’t trust the SFA ???
So Paul67, are Celtic actually going to speak out about this conveyor vilification of their core income stream?
I don’t even know why I’m asking beyond forlorn hope that we pride ourselves as individuals on the behavior of our our demographics majority.
But to be honest mate… the silence of Celtic PLC is really boring the tits off me.
WC-Someone we should know in the photo?
There are still some idiots on here who buy the DR………….
And are Celtic PLC going to be hosting the Daily Record again at Celtic Park at the next home game and drowning them in prawn sandwiches and red wine?
