The SFA may well find Dave King not Fit and Proper to be a director of a football club but, if it happens, it will only be a token gesture. King would be forced to resign as a director of Newco, but he would remain the major shareholder.
There is nothing to stop him activing as a shadow director – exercising all the power but without the legal liabilities. There is nothing to stop him attending board meetings, or from appointing his own placemen on the board. Football’s Fit and Proper test is no more than a token curiosity, it is not worthy of the column inches it is regularly attributed.
Newco will remain a basket case as long as King remains in control, as director or otherwise. There is a chance this will change when he leaves, but no more than that. For me, anything that inhibits his ability to remain in control is unwelcome. Never interrupt your enemy when he’s making mistakes, as Napoleon almost said. Let the man get on with his work!

Posting from Walmart vision center where better 1/2 is choosing new frames
God I hate international breaks.
She’s down to 3 choices. Will be here till dark
See some remarks re Paul getting a hard time. I’m sure his broad shoulders can take the strain.
What is concerning is the complete lack of appreciation for the work the team do to provide
this virtual pub portal. And there’s no door charge.
Apart from gossip and Celtic sometimes Formidable insights into all things Celtic , this site has been a vehicle for charitable works and for the formation of friendships for over a decade.
MaybePaul has a light touch on the posts, but I assume that like most he has to put soup and tatties n mince on the table for his long suffering wife n weans.
Oops a decision. Gotta go and dig into my wallet.
Oi, Fraser wee chap, how you doing?

Not seen TBJ for a while, need to make a point of having a pint with him again.
Must admit I was impressed by your running times.
Should change your moniker to “The Flash”.😂
Heading out to play pool with my boy and his mates, they reckon they’ll wipe the floor with me.
I’ll wait until it’s killer for money and empty their pockets. 👍
Well said ‘GG.
Njoi yer shopping!!
Sipsini,
Gdansk can you feel it?
It’s easy to get in touch with Paul, we all have his email address, anyone wanting to communicate directly with him is free to do so. Think its quite clear that he will not come on here and get involved in a slanging match, but he will answer private emails – well that’s my experience.
Had a wonder through the SMSM is the BBC the only one that mentioned King’s cold shoulder👮
Ah found the Herald bit, most comments are deleted!
SIPS
I think Wee Jamesie already has that Moniker 😃

Thanks. We are staying in Cavtat, which seems a nice wee place. Mrs H has wanted to visit Dubrovnik for ages. We were actually booked to come in the Summer five years ago, but a ruptured Subarachnoid hemorrhage put paid to that. We are heading in to Dubrovnik old town early tomorrow to miss the crowds. We hope to visit at least one of the Islands- I don’t know if you have any recommendations? Lovely weather so far and have met some nice people, so well impressed so far 😎
PS The Pivo is good too 🍺
🍀⚽️
Ruptured Subarachnoid Aneurysm… resulting in haemorrhage. Brain still no right 😜

Evening bhoys just got jobo’s text, have been reading back. I rarely post now because I am useless with technology and need a computer to access the blog. I have always loved the diversity of posters and that no matter what we all have a common love and that’s Celtic .Melbourne Mick I would love to meet and share a dream sometime🍺
HH
Share a dram even, that’s why using a phone is
a no no for me 😅
HH
was not going to post on here forgive me ,but this is for corkcelt he posts on her more than my blog, anyway this is not a criticism corkcelt,, but you said my question no10 last night was wrong, I t was not, the question was celtic played An English premier league side in the 2001/2002 season what team was it and who was the manager, nothing to do with us playing Liverpool, ive got a book on celtic questions and the Liverpool game is one of the other thousands of questions regarding celtic hope this clears that up onwards and upwards.hh.
Dena,
I hope Paul sorts it.
What a Supporter you are.
Incredible.
Being away frae hame I cannae do PC links. Oh my Goodness Grace ious but it is now very hard to link tube videos on mobile.
God Bless You Geraldine and everyone that knows you.
A Mega Superstar….. I’d normally link to the champagne right now.
IMO Oasis best ever song.
I’m slowly being swayed toward independence but…..bearing in mind defence costs for the uk run at £50 billion per annum….and based on a pro rats basis….we would need £5 billion per annum, were would an independent Scotland get that kind of money, what would it buy, how many personnel would it sustain, and what’s the largest force we could repel? Independently, could we see off let’s say, an Argentinian invasion of the Shetlands for example?
Asking for a friend
CORKY, the exiled tim has just put me right, you and the exiled tim are right it was me got the question wrong.hh. appologies.
Pro rats….pro rata….obviously
Big Packy
Surprised to see you on a site you regularly besmirch
Saying that for a friend
PETEC
I read your reference to Matt Stewart’s report at 03:30pm of problems with the blog and pop up adverts. If you can decipher that and put into layman’s terms it would be most appreciated as at 01:30 hrs on Sunday I don’t have a clue what he’s talking about. Anyway off to bed and will be great to waken up a Tim.
Hail Hail
Big Packy
Mind n tell efferybody on SC wot I just did there….bad bassa me…..so amur
Fess19
It’s not “talking about”……it’s “talkin ‘bout”.
Get with it man
Odsonne Edouard 17 goals so far this season.
31003,
If the SNP were genuine, I’d vote for them.
Be TOTALLY independent.
Wanting to join an even Bigger corrupt thang that has No real checks and balances.
Nah, not for little olde petec.
Guys
Get email addys and u can converse.
Easy IMO
Just phoned my friend and told him no one on CQN could answer the Argentine invasion question……so he asked me to ask the following…..if it takes 2 men 1 hour to dig a hole….how long would it take 5 men and a mechanical shovel, complete with all necessary health and safety accoutrements, to dig half a hole?
Petec
It’s the very thing that puts me off
The whole political stratosphere is corrupt
Voting for independence would just magnify it in a more confined space
31003, ive no qualms with cqn ive been on here since the days of pablophanque and tony donnely the singing detective kojo and all the rest, but there is some posters not you by the way, that besmirch this site shame reallyl,like your posts on sc.hh.
