Weepy incompetent Newco, belligerent Hearts, be Good to each other

808

The SFA’s statement last night clarifies the immediate future of the game, or lack thereof.  No training will be permitted until at least the 10 June and the professional game can start 6 weeks after training.  Without the lockdown being extended, the earliest behind closed doors football game can take place on 22 July.

It would be possible to complete the Premiership by 19 August.  Today’s proposal by the SPFL keeps this option on the table.

The new league season would need to start immediately thereafter, games would almost certainly be played behind closed doors and Uefa would need to delay the start of Champions and Europa League qualification competitions until the last week in August.  I think this is unlikely, but it remains possible.

I understand that Hearts, four points adrift at the bottom, are lashing out in every direction, but they would be better advised to try to win support for league reconstruction than go down the belligerent route.  Maybe Ann Budge should have retained the bonus scheme and avoided all this stress.

Newco’s anger is a pale shadow of what we saw during the Traynor statement years.  It’s all a bit limp for my palette. I like my Newco statements frothing with anger, typed while standing in fermenting urine-soaked shoes with flute music blaring in the background.  Don’t judge me.

Today’s “legal advisor did not deem our Members Resolution as competent” is so weepy all I feel is pity.

This afternoon’s SPFL vote can change only details for Celtic.  The real battle was to make this season Null and Void and our incompetent friends across the city were chased out of town for that suggestion.  Celtic will be champions; nine-in-a-row is ours, whether achieved on the field or after Uefa issue advice to national associations.

It’s also interesting to watch the paranoia triggers.  Our own sufferers’ gas will be at a peep for a while, whereas Newco’s conspiracy theorists were born for these times.  Do not be like any of them, just because the tide goes against you, doesn’t mean The Man is out to get you!  You’re just a little anxious.

I know this is a Terrible Good Friday, but be Good to each other today – and stay indoors all weekend.

  1. The Huns are putting the cart before the horse and this could blow up in their faces IF they continue down this path of wanting Doncaster suspended etc ?

     

     

    They want him suspended…and only THEN for an Inquiry to take place after that….Surely Doncaster ( and his Lawyer) could reasonably claim that any Inquiry would be Prejudical to Doncasters defence , whether the Huns have evidence or not ?

     

    I see that the Chairman of Ross County ( I think) is calling for the huns to put any evidence forward to the SPFL Committee itself, and back away from any possible inquiry ?

     

    HH

  2. The Kat in the Hat now on, reminiscing about the 2003 League……………..aw pals the gither.

     

     

    “Thommo”….. *bleurgh*

  3. Chic waxin’ lyrical aboooot how he helped keep “Alex” upto speed on the skore at our game………………………….

  4. Maybe UEFA ( IF they change their minds), will take the matter out of different national FA’s hands by abandoning the season..and declaring who are Champions and relegated etc ?

  5. Normal procedure:

     

    1. Supply alleged evidence.

     

    2. Alleged evidence is looked at and if considered genuine accused party is suspended pending further investigation- independent or otherwise.

     

    3. Investigation takes place and accused party is cleared or removed from office.

     

     

    sevco procedure:

     

    1. Demand independent inquiry and demand accused party/parties suspended.

     

    2. Refuse to supply evidence until 1. above is carried out

     

    3. Everybody is guilty until proved otherwise.

     

    4. Cry corruption, bullying and victimhood.

     

    5. Nobody likes us we don’t care – until it suits us.

  6. No Member , either by itself or its Officials, shall by any means whatsoever disparage,

     

    belittle, discredit or unfairly criticise any other Member or its Club, the Company, the

     

    League, the Directors, Alternate Director and the directors of any other Member and

     

    the Company’s and other Members’ officers, employees, Officials and agents (which

    The bigger the fuss, the less they’ll look at their player problems – they’re not very good and millions doesn’t buy you proven quality in the spfl (ie Kent; we discovered this a decade ago). The less they look at their player problems, the better next season will be for us .

     

     

    Next season’s squad for us could be a challenge – ff gone; OE possibly; broonie’s legs may need to be rationed, can calmac continue to play so often without serious injury, do we bring Dembele in? Will we have money for summer transfers after the covid has removed income for months?

    I’vehadtochange…,

     

    I think we can rest easy on player fatigue, this if nothing else is providing players with very mush needed R&R, especially the likes of CalMac and Broony

  10. I think we should restructure the narrative.

     

    No one will be giving Celtic the league title.

     

    Celtic have won the most points.

     

    Celtic have won the league, on merit, should it not resume post Covid 19.

    My thoughts exactly. Thanks for the link.

    Petec,

     

    no problem, its a matter of record that I previously told you, whether you acknowledge it or not.

     

     

    And you did provide the links/sources the quality of which where exactly as expected.

  17. My guess is the ICT CEO Gardiner was negotiating with Partick and Dundee for a ‘no’ vote and back channelling to the huns. They thought they had it signed sealed and delivered but for whatever reason, Dundee have pulled the rug from under them at the last minute. Gardiner has ran to the BBC with the ‘evidence’ which proves precisely nothing. He was clearly trying to get ahead of the story, which surely will do him no favours with other clubs. Ayr United have already dismissed some of his claims and Ross County have backed the SPFL board.

     

     

    Who knows what happens next. Tomorrow the SPFL or Dundee will have to clarify the situation. The longer this rambles on the more damaging it is for Doncaster and the SPFL. They need to get Dundee on board and get the resolution passed ASAP.

    fav uncle/clunks,

     

    was having issues even with duckduckgo, that addon is thedogsborroks, cheers

  20. I’ve just googled Ross County’s Roy Macgregor………..of the first two pages of imagery for him I am yet to see him posed alongside anyone from celtic.

     

     

    However, the currant picture editor for Shortie has chosen to show a pic with the boul’ Roy and our Neil……

     

     

    The “story” is propounding Roy’s position of trusting the SPFl……….

     

     

    I’ve skimmed the resultant story and no overt mention of Celtic or a relevant interaction with Neil occurs…………..Hmmmmmm

     

     

    So, why did Shortie choose to position a photie that includes our Manager in a story that has no intrinsic relation to the subject matter?

  23. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Happy Easter to all here.

     

     

    Anyone good at statistical modelling.

     

     

    I’d personally love to see a weekly track of all the demented nonsense coming out of Ibrokes over the last six months plotted on a graph.

     

     

    It started with the gentle stuff

     

    – 800 tickets

     

    – SDI

     

    – No shops, selling jerseys out a tent

     

    – Fat boy worth £8m

     

    – Murdoch McLennan should resign

     

     

    Then it gets sillier

     

    – Memorial wall

     

    – HMRC killed us before

     

    – SDI, Elite AND Hummel

     

    – we’ll win the league

     

    – Fat boy worth £20m

     

    – Postponed game played next day

     

     

    Then it just goes nuts

     

    – Fat boy attempted murder

     

    – Fat boy worth 200m

     

    – “Statue of Dave King please”

     

    – Covid-19? Pah! No empty stadium for us

     

    – Null and void

     

    – gies money !

     

    – Gie Us Money !

     

    – GIES MONEY !! 🤬

     

     

    If the foolishness is weighted correctly I reckon we might be able to predict when the curve will reach a plateau when we could see the following

     

     

    – talks to sign Clark Kent

     

    – Launch if a Rangers futures market

     

    – KaBOOM

  24. talking of which ……………. its been hours and hours since they released a statment.

     

     

    must be one due about now.
