The world looked so different for Scottish Football League chief executive, David Longmuir, back in March. He convinced half of the member clubs to reject a deal which would earn them considerably more money next season, while enjoying the accolades of Rangers International chief exec, Charles Green.
Green remains a controlling director of Rangers International, but Longmuir’s actions infuriated First Division clubs, who have now applied to join the SPL, furious at his attempts to subvert them earning what many see as crucial income next season.
To suggest Longmuir acted in the interests of one Third Division club to the considerable detriment of all First Division clubs would be stating the obvious. These shenanigans still go on in Scottish football, even now, after all that happened last year, but it is reassuring that the overwhelming majority of voices have, again, said, ‘On your (boardroom) bike’. We are rapidly becoming one of the least corrupt countries football is played in the world. Good luck to all in the First Division.
I read the leaked document, Rangers (sic): the way forward, yesterday afternoon. It was so ludicrously lacking in anything which remotely resembled substance I assumed the leak was an attempt to discredit Charles Green. Then I heard BBC’s Chris McLaughlin say it was Green himself behind the leak. The fact that the Rangers International director categorically recognised the club is lumbered with a lame manager hardly passes for insight. The document was embarrassingly inept.
“The team will work for each other and press the opponents when not in possession.
“Most of all, players will come off the park knowing that they have done their best.”
In a high-level policy document this is cringeworthy.

Snap shot from RC 4 yards past post
Corner to youse
Watt wins corner chasing long ball
Our refs are definately blind ….LOL
Comes to nowt
No one in this team can take a decent corner except Mulgrew.
Ball bounces to GK
Our MF is MIA
Gershon robbed by Sproule
KW clears danger
Raymac
In the amateur football I was involved in this ref would have been assaulted.
Jimbo
Commentator ‘clearly a bye kick’
Thought these things could be 50/50?
Biased cretin.
Kayal for ambrose asap
Gordon J
Fed up being told games mean nothing.
We are Celtic and every game in Scotland should mean something.
If this was a rare performance then I could understand but this is becoming the norm.
Our coaching limitations are glaring.
Neil not looking impressed in stand
Lucas manages to keep GK in field
Dangerous cross just evades RC striker
That should’ve been a goal for RC, good opportunity passed up.
Ross County look more likely to score than Celtic. It’s just like the last game up there. Terrible pitch makes it difficult, but Celtic should hammer a team like this. We badly miss Victor.
No replay of Watt offside which looked questionable
Dylan cross cleared
RC win corner from clearance which made Gershon look shaky
broonie is the only real midfielder we have – the rest are just bit part players
Celtic mid to forward isn’t working at the mo
Petec
You and Summa need to continue to keep it simple, I think you’d get on well if you can cope with Summas white trousers ;-)
hh
celtic defenders looking like amature players
At least we know Efe should not be played in central midfield in the Cup Final.
Efe concedes possession
He looks out of place in MF
Too slack
Efe couldnae beat a carpet today …..LOL
Come on Celtic.
If fitba oon grass is yer thing……..the merseyside
derby is oon sky.
Change the team- yer a tinkerer, don’t change the team- yer playing yer cliquey favourites, play the fringe players- team disnae gel yer tactically naive, play the young players-they’re overwhelmed-yer clueless, don’t win every game-yer changing the team too much…
Fitbaw Manager- No thanks…
There are times Efe looks like an amateur who’s sneaked on the team bus.

Who plays though? Ledley & ?????
Has Rogic had a touch yet?
80 mins and Efe again fiddles around and loses ball
Don’t believe this ‘beach” fitba wil catch on.
Watt offside?
Offside replays not being shown
Corner RC on our left

………….
I think Gordon J has a point, it’s human nature that the regular 1st teamers are focussing on the SCF and a break.
The Euro qualifiers are what’s important now IMO.
