Murdoch MacLennan’s Q&A, available here on BBC, and Neil Doncaster’s interrogations by various media yesterday, laid out the absurdity of the SPFL’s Trail Without Evidence. MacLennan wrote:
“I have been provided with no evidence whatsoever that any club has been bullied or coerced.
“In the absence of any such report, [Rangers (sic.)] alleging “bullying and coercion” risk bringing the game into disrepute and sowing further unnecessary division.
“The suggestion of issuing loans is a red herring……. The last loan made by the SPL was more than seven years ago, in unique circumstances to a single Member, secured against a personal guarantee given by a wealthy supporter.”
Ann Budge disputes the latter, in an attempt to sound more jaked that she probably was, she claims to have approved a loan to a club when on the SPFL board, but she cannot remember which club. Honestly, these people are being taken seriously in some places!
He goes into great detail about how and why matters progressed as votes came in on Good Friday. He responded to Partick Thistle’s horror at the financial consequences of relegation: “We have to remember that the league is a sporting competition. Each year we have promotion and championship wins for successful clubs, and regrettably relegation for the unsuccessful.” Pick that out of the net, Jacqui Low.
And still, 20 days on from the vote, no evidence of bullying or wrong-doing has been presented. The chairman is correct, the game has been brought into disrepute by one club, that should be brought to task. Newco know with 100% certainty they will lose their EGM vote, but still they prevaricate, perhaps wondering how they will sweeten the Surrender pill for their fans to swallow?

Credit to the lad from the Celtic discord for setting up that hoax for the zombies and the state aid nutter
TIMALOY, has that been confirmed as genuine? I thought there was still a possibility that it was a double scam? I’m not on Twitter so couldn’t check for myself.

Still no word on SOT?
Apologies if this has been shown before, if not a wee Celtic quiz;

MADRA RUA,
Got 75 per cent in that wee quiz.
Being the feast of St Joseph the Worker, I prayed today for all workers on the front line during this difficult time for all of them. The prayer was also meant to include all on here who are required to be out and about at work today.
MADRA RUA,
got 100% in the quiz.
only doubt was Stephane Bonnes,didn`t know he actually broke sweat in a Cellick jersey as per the photo.

The Workers Song by Ed Pickford
Best version IMHO by Dick Gaughin
Come all of you workers
Who toil night and day
By hand and by brain
To earn your pay
Who for centuries long past
For no more than your bread
Have bled for your countries
And counted your dead
In the factories and mills,
In the shipyards and mines
We’ve often been told
To keep up with the times
For our skills are not needed,
They’ve streamlined the job
And with sliderule and stopwatch
Our pride they have robbed
But when the sky darkens
And the prospect is war
Who’s given a gun
And then pushed to the fore
And expected to die
For the land of our birth
When we’ve never owned
One handful of earth?
We’re the first ones to starve
The first ones to die
The first ones in line
For that pie-in-the-sky
And always the last
When the cream is shared out
For the worker is working
When the fat cat’s about
All of these things
The worker has done
From tilling the fields
To carrying the gun
We’ve been yoked to the plough
Since time first began
And always expected
To carry the can
