The SFA today confirmed that they have been able to confirm Paul Murray Fit and Proper to run a football club. After Mr Murray’s previous tenure as a football club director, I’m absolutely delighted he will again be working his magic. At Ibrox.
The SFA Professional Game Board specifically considered Murray’s “intentions as a Director to avoid a repetition of the mistakes of the past”, which presumably involved some kind of commitment to keep his new club spending within its income parameters. This will be a challenge.
Some will be surprised that Murray has been given the green light, specifically after the opinion Lord Nimmo Smith expressed on directors of Rangers (in liquidation), but I’m happy this conclusion was arrived at correctly.
I searched and searched the SFA statement for news on ‘Glib and Shameless’, but they’ve clearly been unable to accept whatever assurances he’s been able to provide them, so far. Few will be surprised at this.
There’s a fine line between legitimate sporting rivalry and over-stepping the mark; the John Guidetti case illustrates this. If during a TV interview John had said Rangers (sic) are “an embarrassment of a football company”, he may have legitimacy on his side, but it’s rude to say so.
Anyone saying this on TV about any club would be asked not to by the SFA. The Association clearly believe whole “dead huns” thing falls into the same category, and have asked John to desist from such comment on TV in future, without censure.
You can’t offend the dead!
Fair enough.
I’m in a good mood, it’s as though we’re going to win the league, or something.

It’s an obligation I’m discharging rather than anything else. The boy bust his hamstring on sunday so can’t play. Thought I’d keep him company.
Sevco
Paul et all,
Couldn’t be happier with the decision to allow anyone with the previous club’s mentality to be allowed residence. It only re-affirms they have not learned their lesson. Rewarding failure only ever leads to one outcome….
Celtic
I have a feeling we’ll score 4 tonight. No idea why, few hints of going for it and winning with style may have lead me to this.
Prediction
Silky Celtic

I’m surprised they cleared Murray to sit on the Board at CashstrappedHillbillies’R’Us.
Good grief, has he not been punished enough?

Oh look the gas cooker is on the Liza Minnelli
The SFA’s default position is to do what Ibrox wants yet it nearly always seems to end up being the wrong decision for the huns whether it’s on the park or off it.
Murray is just another flyman full a flannel,like the Murray before him minus the contacts,you couldn’t blame our board if they wanted them in the league,we’ll have the ghosties for toasties.
Bada
Those ole Sevconian’s ‘they don’t like it up em’ *slap bang on the fuzzy wuzzies* they don’t like it up em – they don’t
