Inner Record culture disrobed, signing up to the Celtic rulebook

891

In many places it would be practically inconceivable that someone could be employed in this position:

capture-20170119-220102
And get away with running rubbish like this on a back page cover:

capture-20170119-220127
But then you see more and get a picture of the organisation involved:

capture-20170119-220204
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.

    That’s like comparing Celtic with a tax evading entity

     

     

    By the way funny enough Airdrie went bust as well

     

     

     

    At least the wee Rovers paid their bills :-)

    I dont normally pay too about attention to Phil Mac ( to be honest I think he is a bit of fantasist) but if its true that there is a chance that Bojan might sign for us …..well let me be the first to say I would drive to Stoke myself to collect him…smashing player

  4. glendalystonsils on

    May I be the first to point out that Bojan is an anagram of Banjo. How is he at hitting coos erses?

    My Godson who cannae get into the Ross County first team has played loads of times in direct opposition to Barrie McKay. Cannae understand the hype. Barrie has been in his pocket every game. One trick and no end product is my nephew’s view on the wee Baurheid Tim McKay. He sings the rebs does Barrie. Barrhead Republicans!

    Dont know about coos erses but keeping on the banjo theme …he sure got an awfull purdy mouth…

    Wee Barrie was good in the New Year game,their best player by a mile,gave Lustig a hard time

     

     

    The hype is all about that game…today he had plenty of chances to put in decent crosses and ….he didnt

    Last night thems were saying he was worth 12 million, they reckon wee barnut is better than Paddy Roberts.

     

    Thats what happens when your a hun….you never learn:)

    I have no relatives in Coatbrig, but my mam has family in Airdrie, Saint Margaret’s Parish, and Cleland and Newmains. All Delaney by name.

  10. The Green Man says SACK THE Board on

    Glendalys

     

     

    Bojan…Nah.

     

    Better out there for half the price theyd be asking for him.

  11. glendalystonsils on

    I always looked at Bojan as being a player of unfulfilled potential. Maybe Brendan reckons he can unlock that potential.

     

    Always assuming it’s not all just paper talk.

  12. Delaneys Dunky on

    WITS

     

     

    Barrie had a good half hour running fae the half way line to the 18 yard line wi nae end product against a tired Mik Lustig. Hope the wee Tim makes it in the game away fae doomdome.

  13. The Green Man says SACK THE Board on

    Glendalys

     

     

    Good player but injured a lot, probably overpriced.

     

    Cant see it myself.

    Plenty of good tims doing missionary work in Airdrie :-)

     

     

    St Margaret’s bus (Caractus Club) was a favourite for the trips to pittodrie, am only kidding with the Airdrie stuff

     

     

    But it will be green & white tomorrow

  15. Barrie McKay, and I’m not being unfair, is worth £650k.

     

     

    Something that everyone is missing regarding this pathetic, ham-fisted, Level5 lie is the player himself and his family.

     

     

    They will be thinking their lives are about to be transformed and riches await.

     

     

    Every time the guy loses the ball now that mob will crucify him.

     

     

    He will be at Hearts if he’s lucky in 3 years.

     

     

    Sevco are thick. They tried the Kiernan £2m to Fulham story last month.

     

     

    As if, Moyes, Alec Neil etc are going to buy a player for 7 figures because the Record or Sun say there is interest from Germany or somewhere else.

     

     

    Johnny Hayes would be a better buy.

     

     

    It might make them at the most to watch some recordings of recent games and then they would know it was nonsense because he just isn’t that good.

     

     

    Anyway The Celts playing tomorrow.

     

     

    Ryan Christie hat-trick and 5-0.

    Possibly go to West after the game,flying in 7 am and out 7 Pm

     

     

    If West is good we could meet there after the game about 3.30/4.00 ???
