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 the closest he’ll ever get to Celtic.

     

     

    Regarding that reporter. That is the first time i have ever been happy about someone losing their job.

     

     

    As for the £6 million pound man Celtic’s bankers must love that story. £6 MILLION for a good 30 mins against us, so Sinclair has a good 60 mins plus a goal that must mean (2X30 = 60) SO (2X6,000,000) = £12,000,000. Plus the goal value say £3,000,000. That’s £15 MILLION for Sinclair.Holy shit what does that mean for Mousa.

     

     

    KEEP THE FAITH

     

     

    P.S.

     

     

    Not bought the daily ranger fae they printed “Get well soon Ian from all our readers” after Durrant got done at Pittodrie.

    Not the first President to have Scottish roots of course but surely one of the few to have a Scottish mother.

     

    Even so did it have to be the MacLeods?

     

    First ‘Highlander’ and now this…..

     

    We’ll never hear the end of it!

    I understand what you are saying about sponsors expecting publicity, but the SMSM has such a small and diminishing readership that the loss to them (the sponsors) and the club will be miniscule.

     

     

    When Brian Quinn was our chairman you could guarantee a regular appearance on radio 5 talking all good things celtic. Since Ian Bankier there has been nothing. Free advertising lost. We really need to sort that for a start.

     

     

    There are also far bigger and better channels than newspapers out there in which to advertise and communicate. That is where the club needs to concentrate.

     

     

    Time to “write the papers off as a bad job”. We have nothing to lose but our enemies.
