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.

Not the ole’ CQN roasted/toasted cheese argument again!’this time with. Jilly Goolden slant?!!! We covered this 9 months ago people! Will this madness never end??!
FGF, your probably right, reading the small print, must be virtually impossible to do with a medicine ball.

Praecepta, to win the money they have to hit the next European opponents cross bar from Ipox. Just as likely a scenario as them actually playing another European opponent.
Guys
I was business friendly with a hun in 1987
He was related to a hun family who had shares at Ibroke
SDM was takin s**tloads of stuff out of the club whilst making it look like he was the good guy.
Shop at Edminston Hse had a call centre & the we had Response & catering spawning from there. I wonder who owned that ?.

Well that does not surprise me in the slightest. Graham Spiers often steals ideas from this forum. I’m surprised the ole’ CQN toasted/roasted cheese debate has not appeared on Radio Scotland or SSB yet. Anyway, I doubt the other forum will have the necessary cultural reference points to cover the wine selection issue raised earlier. Sniff…
It was easier to answer one of Ted Rogers cryptic clues on the tv programme 3-2-1 than win sevco’s crossbar challenge and that took some doing the questions were 100 times harder than CRC’s quiz on a friday night:)

I used to dislike SDM but when you look back the guy is an absolute legend who single handedly destroyed the huns with a little help from some … erm some friends. The thing that gets me is the huns won’t hear a bad word said against him still!! why??
Quiet first-half – Fiorentina v Roma 0-0 (no bookings).
Unusual – past few matches have seen approx 11 yellows + 3 red cards per game.

Listen to SSB and the BBC phone ins this week, the old roasted/Toasted debate will raise its head soon.
Might not relate to cheese though, more likely to be are the Huns roasted or toasted.
They are roasters right enough.
I’m not surprised sevco have banned the BBC permanently for publishing their load of old shoite….what an embarrassment THAT was…….LOL…
In keeping with their lack of integrity / character, the shysters will lift the ban in a couple of weeks,… had to laugh when the media reported it as the ‘right thing to do’, when it was merely the reporting of a valid document which exposed the cloud-coockoo club for what they actually are….fantasy spin doctors of the lowest order, saying ANYTHING to keep the fans’ hands in their pocket…..
They are heading for the knackers yard again……and it can’t come quick enough for me…
Usual Saturday night without a Hoops game to celebrate.
Mrs & Miss Burghbhoy glued to the incessant number of singing shows, Burghbhoy junior on play station .
Find myself searching You Tube for old Celtic clips…….
Came across one from last year when the CFC squad visited John Thomsons grave in Cardenden.
After the guy from the grave society spoke about the Prince of Goalkeepers Neil spoke.
What a wonderful , wonderful ambassador Neil is for our club, he spoke with warmth, passion and compassion about John and our club and the punters.
I thought I could not think more highly of Neil, a mhan I have admired as a player, coach & manager for many years.
I was wrong, he is the heart beat of our club.
We are all Neil Francis Lennon.
God bless all here.
Miki 67.keep up the good fight bud
Chiko said today on RS that he was ‘encouraged to leave’ Ibrox
by JT and he did do ‘walking away’.
Although he drove back to the BBC studio in his Mercedes.
If you do hit the crossbar is that when they tell you it’s double or quits?
I heard that one of the red road flats is getting demolished tomorrow – going to be a big bang
You have to hit both crossbars? Wouldn’t be a problem with the old Ipox cross bar it was as thick (fat) as your average sevconian and square. If you see the old Ipox in replays of us beating the club that used to play there it is like four railway sleepers tied together.
DJBEE
Hot of the press.
The Ibrox crossbar challenge is to be replaced next season
by Beat BDJ in a halftime pie eating contest.
Supporters say there is more chance of winning the Crossbar
challenge kicking a medicine ball blindfolded.
The best news today has been the fact that the Rangers going forward plan has been binned since Green went away.
The longer they keep with Super Sally and his backroom staff the better.

Thanks for the reply earlier.

Two out of 42 is a start I suppose.
Still a long ways to go I fear.

Listen to Scottish Football Radio shows? I would if I could. But I can’t, so I won’t.
Roasters! LOL!! Too true…

Cheers for the pictures, that was hilarious.
Is that what they call a good night out?
I almost felt sorry for them there, still think they were an absolute disgrace due to the obvious lack of brown brogues. Still the band looked good and lively
hahahhahhahahahahhahahahahhha

Maybe, however they are still entitled to their privacy.
Would not like pics of ourselves being
posted on one of their sites.
Great meeting you last week.
HH.
I remember the cheese n toast debate on here a couple of years ago, might even of started it but it went on for about a week. Anyone for blue cheese? Let’s face it I think that sevco are toast, burnt toast that there is no point scraping into the sink, or those shrink wrapped photos of cheese that have gone black that are scarey to touch.
praecepta
There has been a slight development since I sent it, I will send it to you.
Sent.
HH
Roma nick 1-0 away win on 92mins v Fiorentina – get your money on an AC Milan to win tomorrow night (it will almost seal the 3rd CL spot in Serie A).
Great to meet you and your other very tall team mates last week. I doubt they would put pictures of such good looking fellows as ourselves on their sites, their wummin might see what they,ve been missing.
HH
P.S. Next time ma cat gets stuck up a tree, I,m calling on your service:-)

The FPLG will hang on in at Sevco till he is sacked, that’s if they can afford to bin him.
Being the Hun manager through two administrations is his destiny and our pleasure.
