A Uefa compliance officer will visit the Scottish FA early next week after European football’s governing body were asked to look into what was happening inside Scottish football by people within the German game. Scottish football has been rocked by allegations of improper registration of players for over a month now. The SFA recently concluded an inquiry into Rangers without reference to the allegations while the Scottish Premier League have announced an inquiry, but indicate it will not report anytime soon.
Although the allegations have consequences beyond the SPL, including international and European football, the SFA have failed to actively address concerns which could see 12 years of football results rewritten, prompting interest from Uefa.

In case Penfold is looking in….my POTY is Cha Mulgrew….but doff my cap to Joe Joe Super Joe whom I doubted earlier in his CP career

From the Last Thread..
Having never worked in the football business, Whyte had never heard of Ticketus. When I heard who this was I laughed and laughed and laughed. I’m still laughing. This is the story that just keeps on giving. My source is not for going on the record, so discretion is the better part of valour on this one, but if Mr Whyte ever gets to the witness box, get yourself a front row seat.

“Still Laughing”..
So it Was Kojo..

nae b*ws just like me in fact……………..but I will still never get a big putter…. that’s giving up :-)
I was told today that yer average golfer walks 900 miles over the golf course throughout the season. He also drinks on average 22 gallons of beer/lager at the golf club throughout the season……which apparently means yer average golfer gets about 41 miles tae the gallon
SmashingMilkBottles,
I hope the big man will be our number one for many years to come.
The training isn’t going well. I may have to face up to the fact that my olympic dreams may never be realised.

See when you get your stent in, they birdie putts are a doddle, anything 8 feet and under are in the hole, trust me :>)))
Best of luck btw.
Well played Sporting Clube de Portugal, showing that a well managed team with clever tactics and recruting can pump the so called whatever they are so called.
The EPL is the rfc of European leagues, over hyped, press scared to critisize, tactically years behind, massive debt, deeee funct de de de dee funct.
Big putters are for jessies………now 60o lob wedges
yeah we can all be phil mickelson with one of them

Cheers…….but ah’ll need tae try a stent in ma legs tae stop ma knees knockin when standin over that tiny putt
I want Big Fraser to stay also. However Harry Redknapp seems to want Krul at Spurs and FF might make his only misjudgement this year in wanting to play for Newcastle rather than be in Europe.
I don’t think Fraser Forster will leave us.
He’s growing into a top-drawer goalkeeper at Celtic. Only a few months ago I was disappointed we didn’t sign Stipe Pletikosa, now I’m delighted we have our Northumbrian gentle giant in goal.
After he experiences winning the title, and hopefully the treble, I can’t imagine he’d want to move to some inferior club in England for a few dollars more. Celtic can offer him an excellent package, European football, fifty thousand fans, fame, and glory.
This is a very special Celtic side and it has awesome potential. With players like James Forrest, Victor Wanyama, Beram Kayal, Emilio Izaguirre, Gary Hooper, Adam Matthews, Joe Ledley, Anthony Stokes, and big Fraser all aged 25 or under, its best years lie ahead of it.
Martin O’Neill had something like £20m to assemble his squad. Neil Lennon has put together the most exciting team that Scottish football has seen since the days of Larsson, Sutton, Hartson, Petrov and Moravcik, and on a shoestring budget.
I can’t wait for the adventures they’ll take us on. (thumbsup)
31003..keep yer heid doon… very still.. and think positive! ..Kerr plunk !!
Keep you out of the cludgie too ! Hh
Hanibal Hector 21:33:
Exactly my understanding of the D&P challenge re-ticketus i.e. they are not disputing what is owed to Ticketus but simply asking that they line up wirh the other Creditors and not treated as a preferred Creditor.
Paul67:
Spooky thread as I heard earlier this evening that both Porto and Dortmund had approached their respective organisations to approach UEFA to look at the ongoing situation as they have lost out on chances to participate in European competitions.
Did we find out who told our hero about Ticketus yet!!!
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!

One thing I do like about the Europa League knockout stages is how quick the games come along, as opposed to the Champions League matches where by the time the second leg comes around, nobody can remember the score in the first leg. Fair play to City for making a game of it, and for Joe Hart’s effort, and to Wayne Rooney for twice making the results more respectable, but the fact is Manchester is probably football’s richest city and both have been knocked out of two European tournaments. A mention for Stan Colleymore, for all his faults, he really can bring enthusiasm to a game, something Craig Burley singularly failed to do tonight,despite a great finish to the game by both teams.
Philvis ..couldn’t agree more..that’s the real big story in scottish fitba !
The futures bright and it’s not orange !!!! Hh
just got the old phone number and numbers back
excuse me for not replyiny to a few folk
Smashy……..ah knew you havin that 3rd beer would spell trouble
that will be the red wine then
Ha. Fair play smashin. To be fair, I’d have Charlie high on my list, but glad you agree with me about Joe ;-)
Ha ha ha, unlikely to be true, but funny anyway. Someone just tweeted that the minimum charge PayPal take for a transaction is 20p, therefore donating 1p actually cost the fightin’ fund, I would suspect there will be something in place to protect against this, but imagine there isn’t and thousands donate 1p…. Mmwhahahahahahaaaaaaa

EPL – best league in the world…. supported (embarassingly) by grown men in sweden, thailand, ireland, australia, and other daft countries with no “football culture” to call their own.
Manchester? GIRFUY!!!!
Portugal….. now there is a real football country.
What a classy performance by athletic club.

EPL – best league in the world….
according to TalkSport, 5Live, Sky, the Sun….. and anything else that turns out what passes for ‘news’ in the UK.
Just gutted that Napoli missed the chance to get a fourth goal a couple of weeks ago, and kill off chelsea…. the huns of england.
Blog is cooking like never…….
Great to see the blazers and coloured ties wriggling under their collars
in Scotland at last.
Thanks to Paul for all his investigative work and writing panache.

Putting is all in the head, see they 2, 3, 4 foot putts, imagine the hole is about a foot beyond the hole, then putt, I will wager you will sink many more of them, as I said trust me.
Hit them hard enough to take the break out of them, I bet you miss them cos you try and baby the ball in, go on admit it :>)
If I couldn’t putt my handicap would be well into double figures.

Anyone who knows me, will recognise it as my catch phrase.
All Belfast “Spydey” expressions, when one is happy, all said in a broad Belfast accent. (A “Spyde” = a “ned” in Scotland).
1. “Shat” = “Shot” …….as in football, the beautiful game.
2. “Cracker” = “Splendid” ……as in Frank Carson speak
3. “I’m Yer Mon” = “I’m your man” ……as in ” Goan yerself”.
Put the 3 together and recite out loud when (a) one becomes a podium hat-trick winner within the first 3 posts or (b) when the Currants finally slip off the dish.
I love…just love Rafa Benitez’s accent……and YOU can have that accent too. Impress your friends and talk like Rafa…..just say every word without saying the last SOUNDING letter….try it……the girls love it

Probably, id imagine hes a fairly popular boy at the minute with agent types.

Id probably agree with you re Lennon’s judgement, however Id think Lennon would have enough conviction in his opinions he wouldnt have been worried about opinion or being wrong had we opted for a permanent deal.
Maybe I was being a tad arrogant, because I didnt consider Norwich as being anyone worth mentioning.. whoopsy, as so what!
Philvisreturns
I agree with you. Noises from within would indicate that Lennon and his team have been throwing all sorts of subliminal messages at the players to convince them of the potential greatness they could achieve together, yet mediocrity apart.
Its hard to say.
I think the English arrogance will stand them against considering anything FF has done or accomplished in our backwater of football as worthy of anything genuine enough to follow up on.
It certainly is a pickler, because we showed our hand when we said we had pushed ahead with negotiations to get him signed up back in January.
Unconfirmed rumour that if Celtic fans donate 1p to the ragers fighting fund it’ll cost them 19p to process our 1p. Got to be worth a 100 x 1p??
Philvis,
couldn’t have put it better myself, and – modestly of course – thats a rare thing ;)
a few tweaks required, but he’ll know that. No arrogance intended, but I think we have the SPL conquered for the next few years. Europe poses the big questions. I know the focus is on a European class striker but, although we’re coming down in midfielders, I still believe there’s a gap to be filled in the hole behind the front two. We need a ‘hinge’ who can unlock Euro defences.
Oh, and someone who can score from corners
