That’s not an outbreak of Tourettes you hear

No, that’s not an outbreak of Tourettes across small patches in the west of Scotland, it is the long-suffering Newco fans realisation that their board have been breathtakingly incompetent in their attempts to recruit a manager.

In many respects, briefing the media ahead of their two games against Aberdeen and an AGM that Derek McInnes would be installed at Ibrox this week, had the desired effect. The players were sufficiently motivated to out-perform Aberdeen, while Dave King got through the AGM on a nod and a wink. The falsehood of the assertion, however, will surely come at a cost. King will hope that memories fade before he has to face fans again in 51 weeks.

My immediate reaction when I read the ridiculous statement from Newco last night was that their hilarious PR system was at the keyboard while jaked. They spend six weeks targeting McInnes, then, after he rejected them, claimed this was evidence he was not up to the job.

An obscure phrase was used, “concomitant risk”, instead of the more common “associated risk”. There’s a fair bit of research into why people unnecessarily use complex and obscure words instead of simpler alternatives. None of it is flattering.

I assumed the statement was the work of Newco’s shamlessly-brilliant PR operation, but a studious CQN’er emailed this clip of Dave King’s AGM speech last year.

4 minutes 29 seconds in he states they should: “run an operating deficit, without a concomitant event risk that could lead to a repeat of the last few years”. Last night’s statement has Dave’s tones all over it.  Fewer and fewer people compliment the emperor on his new outfit.

A big thanks to teams two and three in the league, who have damaged their positions and/or humiliated themselves, while Celtic have extended their lead at the top of the table.

    For all my adoration of early Bruce,maybe his best song for me is usually overlooked.

     

     

    Mibbe for a reason,but Candy’s Room,wow.

     

     

    Diamond rings and pretty things,aye,it’s obvious what the lovely Candy is and does.

     

     

    Who cares?

     

     

    Driving guitars and drums? That’s what Bruce does for a living,and his band rarely did it better.

    Ha,naw. Disnae resonate,mate. Met plenty of good time girls when I stayed in Streatham,got on well with them as I ran a local pub. Sometimes I got their stories-one girl from Darvel,Shona-summed it all up.

     

     

    I enjoyed their company,but I would never pay for that. But I’d pay so that no-one else could.

    I see the SMSM are at it again with their Jabbaesque revisionist history.

     

    Succulent Lamb has got absolutely nothing to do with the next generation of Aberdeen supporters.

     

    Disgraceful!

    The SMSM is just a microcosm of the DARK agenda against Christianity.

    I walked down the Springfield Road after a game against Aiberdeen last Season, the hun patter was disgusting. I should have crossed the road, I’d been chatting with a few quality Aiberdeen fitba supporters leaving the Stadium. They made the hun comments – young thugs that knew what they were doing….. only Police Scotland could save them.

     

     

    Walk On by

    Possibly the most gratifying aspects of McInnesgate is the fact that he got his rejection in first.

     

    Had Sevco seen this coming they would have issued a proclamation that they had rejected him.

     

     

    They have a long history of getting their story in first, therefore diluting the impact of the truth coming out later. This time, McInnes got his rejection in first and stole their thunder.

     

    They then had to come out with that hilarious statement.

     

     

    Another pleasing aspect and massive respect to McInnes for it, when the fans issued their poisonous, twisted demand to leave his assistant behind, that was the ultimate factor in his rejecting them. He wasn’t just rejecting the club, he was rejecting the supporters.

     

     

    Sevco FC, truly the most screwed up club in the world.

    Mea Culpa,

     

     

    There are no gratifying aspects….Dons manager stays at Dons…..despite the SMSM trying to destabilise him…..shock…..as it ever was

     

     

    Will the FTSFA investigate any allegations of tapping…..nope…..as it ever was

    The Theos are the wealthy lying constantly, the not so wealthy lying to keep status.

    Sevco – Sorry.

     

     

    If Celtic Lose to Neil’s Hibs team fair do’s.

     

     

    Hibs will really have to go some to beat this Celtic team.

     

     

    Easily the toughest game Celtic will play this December.

     

     

    It will be a cracker, Neil wants to be the next Celtic Manager.

    Footballing sides. Aidan has fractured a bone @ a Good Time.

     

     

    Scott Brown has taken criticism from me in the past. He was World Class 1st half on Tuesday.

     

     

    Celtic is Good.
