Lots of details became available yesterday but if you can drag yourself away from the most gratuitous, concentrate on the dates.
12 December 2012.
One week before the IPO. Material information disclosed to the nomad?
21 June 2012.
Four weeks after Mr Whyte was banned from participating in Scottish football, enabling Newco to exist.
11 months before one of Mr Whyte’s collaborators is proposed as a director of Newco.
What the spivs have done to that club, assisted by the most stupid people to own keyboards and journos on-the-make, is breath-taking. How did the idiots manage to take over? There is a lesson for humanity here.
On a related subject:
“Craig Whyte’s involvement would be hidden from the SFA and SPL”.
Mr Ogilvie, you’re going to need a bigger shredder.
You and your organisation are being openly mocked. What was patently obvious to anyone remotely interested in following events to their logical conclusion a year ago is now evident to all.
I have no interest in you resigning now. All the damage which could have been done to our game due to a lack of penetrative oversight, which is your job, has been done. Your persistence is merely confirmation that the levels of corporate governance at the SFA remain unchanged.
Fans from SPL and SFL clubs found rock among the sand to build foundations on last year. There remains a love of our game, and our clubs, among the detritus, but we have unquestionably been failed by the custodians of our game at Hampden Park, who I am convinced, will again bury their heads in the sand.
There is no going back, no quick fix, no one can put this right. Nothing will ever be the same again. Accept this and move on.

Wonder what Lottie will flash us today?
So have Hearts been relegated yet?? If the parent company going bust is ruled to be an insolvency event then they will be. But what’s the likelihood of the SPL coming up with a quick answer?
Dundee could well be the beneficiaries once more. Or it could be another period of uncertainty over the summer as they wait to find out what division they will be in.

Re Rockall
Scotland has never had any claim to it-the title is to the UK
Should Scotland gain independence I doubt the remainder of the UK will cede Rockall due to its potential and actual strategic and financial significance.
Hands Off Rockall.

You do her proud.

Whither the cash strapped scrofulous hillbillies the day?
Is it a world record for 3 teams from the same city to win their respective leagues in the same season?

Where does one buy a decent Snooker cue in or around Glasgow. Online is no use really as we both need to hold the thing. Just starting out so don’t want to spend a lot on each cue, willing to spend more on the wee chaps cue howevah. £100 is the maximum budget for both cues.
..that means £70 & £29 obviously. :P
BT
dont think we’ve gabbed before. My wee uncle frequents the KoSC. He gets called paco, cant be that many in the club, second initial T. He hails from jobos parish. A real gent and top celtic man. Thot i’d ask if you know him

Cheers TNT explosive stuff!
Petec,
any good snooker club should have a decent selection of cues for sale,other than that greaves sports would be your best place in glasgow
petec –
In Glasgow city centre Greaves woiuld be your best bet. Either branch I’d imagine.
Back to work…

Not sure now if it’s still the same but Greaves sports in the town used to have a wide range of cues.
If all else fails go to a club feel the cue you like when playing, unscrew it shove it down your legs and walk out as if you have 2 wooden legs :))

gordybhoy64, Jobo,
Thank You lads.
Operation Winkle – code name for the police operation on the Gallowgate against GB.
I was told by my MSP, police were responding to a disturbance and there was no pre planned operation in place that day.
So who is telling lies my MSP? or Strathclyde Police? I will be contacting my MSP today and urge everyone else who previously contacted theirs to do the same.

One of our more erudite bears just posted the following on FF in the discussion regarding Alistair Johnstons “cancer” comments this morning.
“You know something? I’m sick of the soundbites from AJ. If he and the rest had PUBLICLY declared their misgivings about Whyte then we may not have been here.”
That’s why they are deid…….

What if petec likes one of the cues that does not unscrew, does he still put it down his trousers & walk out like jake the snake?

HT thanks bud.
bognorbhouyle. I will add that to my list P. Although being a baldy not sure that singing about l’oreal is for me. I would have got my lad to do it but he is of to a communion in Dublin tonight.

Hearts wages are always due the middle of the month.
This would be around now. If they are not paid which I suspect they won’t be they will go down the tubes.
They are hanging on to make it until Monday so they can dodge relegation. This is unethical they are virtually trading as insolvent.
They had their last home game v Hibs last week and slashed prices for the previous game v St Mirren which won’t have generated much.
Hearts are going, going, going………
The word in Edinburgh is that the council will save them in some shape or form and they will share with either Hibs (I doubt Hibs will accomodate them) or use Meadowbank which is due to be upgraded in 2015. They already have the use of the state of the art training ground at Riccarton which is owned by the council and university so that will be fine for their training.
I don’t see how they can survive and they will not come back for a very long time to be an SPL club.
Mr Ogilvie was involved in Rangers and Hearts and now both clubs look like being liquidated within a year of each other. I have no idea how the SFA can justify is position at the SFA. All clubs should be campaigning for this mans removal.
