A stalemate was one of the more positive possible outcomes from today’s SPL meeting. Such are the layers of intimidation which have been levelled across a spectrum of football clubs, bodies and individuals in the last week, it was difficult to imagine SPL chairmen standing up for sporting integrity after Sandy Jardine’s ominous words.
Unfortunately, for the Magnificent Duff and Phelps, they will have to shred plans to blame someone else for the shambles they are, kind of, administering. Their creative talents will be taxed to the limit to explain for another two weeks why it is in creditors interests to consume available monies while Craig Whyte has not moved an inch in 10 weeks on demands for his shares of stadium security.
The narrative of this story is also important. Angry Ally could have blamed the SPL chairmen for Rangers imminent descent into oblivion, and demanded to know where they live, but this would have been a corruption of the truth. Rangers will not die because of the SPL or SFA but because their own misdeeds of the last 20 years are about to catch up with them.
This will be their final narrative. Be angry at those who administered and profited from the EBTs, no one else.

You should know better. Prime time on CQN. Lots of children looking in.
Can’t take credit for the picture someone on CQN posted it before me. I am just wetting myself at it.
Are we expecting one of Duff & Duffer’s tea time pronouncements? Probably that they’re still mulling things over, and trousering more money that could have gone to creditors.
And maybe it’ll be another Monday night Late Late show from the SFA appeal panel…
Lads i emailed Alex with that video and this was his reply.
There’s a deep difference between recognising that others might find something offensive but not actually being personally offended by it and being honest enough to say etc.
bbc radio foyle presenter mark patterson,ran a story on the nothern Ireland under16 team,being abused on the boat by Celtic fans yesterday…He contacted the IFA,who dissmissed it as banter…on the same post I put up the footage of the toilets being wrecked,3 times I put it up,and they removed it…I rang the station to ask why,and was told they would contact me with a response,or rather an excuse…

Just catching up and this post caught my eye…..noone seems to have responded or commented. Why not? is it nonsense? I certainly hope so but being paranoid and prone to panic I will fret about it until someone promises me otherwise.

Thanks for the comment and commentary Paul67. They were so bad yesterday , it felt like the end there and then and now Operation Society Fabric hasn’t worked so far , they must know this is so bad they are doomed. Why didn’t they listen. I’m sure you’ve blogged that even relatively recently they could have avoided obliteration.
Alex Thomson is doing his job properly thankfully,probably best not to saddle him with a songs debate.

Just watched it. Animals. Absolute animals.
Never mind the damage – this new ‘robust’ anti sectarian law (or ‘Operation Make Sure We Even up the Numbers and get Timmy Law’ as I like to call it) seemed not to have been on plod’s mind as they stood there listening to sectarian chant after sectarian chant while watching malicious damage taking place.
And what’s this ‘chop the heads off glasgow celtic’ chant? New one on me. Pretty much par for the course.
what are these sick animals going to do when they have no team? God help us.
We need to chill out with Alex Thomson, the guy said he doesn’t find it offensive and that’s his opinion and he’s entitled to his opinion.
A lot of people may find things offensive that we don’t but people are entitled to their opinions.
I agree they are scum but we must remember Alex isn’t from this side of town.
How can people let that dirt out of their mouths? They really are scum.
Just read the scenario that PaulMaC has written about newco windy Miller, spl etc.
Doesn’t fill my heart with joy.
They sure would turn a blind eye.

Kerrydale street had an article earlier and it said that the SPL/SFA have been speaking to Bill Murray for 7 weeks, Alex Thomson asked the SFA if they have ever spoke with him and they said no, who’s lying, well i would say the SFA are lying because I wouldn’t believe a word they say, anything to save them scumbags.

Doncaster on Sportsound virtually dismissing the SPL survey results. Apparently we don’t understand what a CVA and Liquidation mean.
Does anyone know if the police have made any comment about the video thats on you-tube?

Agreed, both the SPL/SFA have been in contact with Bill Murray for the last 7 weeks.
I said this morning i have a horrible feeling in my gut when it comes to these corrupt scumbags.
Has anybody complained to Eddie Smiths colleagues about the wrecking of property and belting out of sectarian bile while they stood idly by collecting their overtime? And they oppose bail after arresting a boy because he had a flag with the word “Hun” on it. Impartial policing my erchie

Wise words
Bill Murray is simply a comedian.

Who knows?
Still the little problem of – the stadium – the players – the sheer amount of new money it will take to get Newco off the ground – the little time they have left to do it.
It isn’t as simple as that.
Not at all surprised at the suggestion that SFA may have known of dual contracts. Very surprised if there is evidence. SFA will only have one lodged with them. It cannot have been any other way. That a funny handshake insider pal knew what they were up to is beyond doubt. They are clutching at straws with that one.
Don’t worry, they are goosed.
Doncaster – 4 games against them is written into current Sky deal, won’t discuss new deal on the table. Traynor desparate for him to say its in new deal.

These phone-ins are a hoot tonight …….. Gonnae hurry up and liquidate these incredibly farsical cheats …… They have shafted Scottish Football for at least 20 years, and they are now trying to shaft us again…….. Absolutely hilarious……..

I keep seeing comments on here from posters saying there won’t be enough time to get a newco up and running but i wouldn’t be surprised if these clowns already have things in place.
If Bill Murray has been speaking to them for weeks then I’m afraid plans are in place.
Scottish Football is corrupt and it favours 1 team only and its the establishment team and the quicker people realise this the better.
I’m sorry but if rules are bent to suit them to keep history etc and to avoid paying what they owe then I’m sorry i wont be back.
It’s my opinion and my choice and i love Celtic and i know i shouldn’t hurt Celtic but if Celtic really wanted this to STOP then all they have to do is make a statement and tell the world we will not support this and we will not play future games because of the corruption in Scottish Football.
Lets just say a newco is parachuted back in, lets play devils advocate here, how would people feel if they won the title next year.
Exactly raging, raging, raging.
For the integrity of our game we must not allow this to happen.
