Keep an eye on what’s happening at Leeds United. The club is under offer from ‘colourful’ Italian, Massimo Cellino, who will become owner if the Football League decide that his conviction for defrauding Italian tax authorities is not sufficient to make him an inappropriate person to control a football club.
If Cellino is declared unsuitable by authorities in England I am told to expect a coordinated media campaign to have people with similar backgrounds hounded out of the game here. The is a dirty war underway for control of one of Scotland’s newer clubs.
Leeds have historically been a club which it’s difficult to feel sympathy for but I genuinely feel for their fans, who suffered for the lack of a director to say ‘No more money’ amid the clamour to reach ‘the next level’, whatever that was at the time.
Now they are a massive club but lose circa £15m per year, making it impossible for them to compete with clubs far smaller than them. Being subject to the attention of convicts is a direct consequence.
On a completely unrelated matter, I read Phil Mac Giolla Bhain today use the word “Wonga” in relation to Newco Rangers’ recent attempts to finance. That was exactly the word used to me to describe a potential financer who is set to meet the club tomorrow. The campaign to oust the club’s current owners is significantly undermining their ability to do their jobs.
Well done to Big Yogi and the Highlanders for their unconventional route to the League Cup Final. It must have been an absolute sickener for Hearts fans to lose to nine men. Absolute. Utter. Sickener. Oh well.
I read Barcelona lost on Saturday for only the fifth time when Messi had scored. Can anyone name another occasion?

I agree completey with what you’re saying mate but since Wallace arrived there appears to be a desire to get things sorted out, also I still think the Easdale’s will be key to what happens to them going forward.
Right am offski to a sale and the Brazen for a couple.

As I said, BlantyreKev told me, and his wife is an expert, natch.
Former Celtic striker Mo (the bounce) Bangura has joined Turkish second division club Istanbul BB.
Come on now Tony bhoy, its pretty clear who has been experiencing the anger issues of late, I believe the GB have taken to the CSA out of solidarity or until you prescription is up for renewal. A bit of appreciation wouldn’t go amiss.
BOBBY MURDOCH’S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS ………FC not PLC
It would be a far simpler matter to move from one part of mainland Britain to another, though.

Yes, but those companies employ people who pay the income tax.
Added to this is the problem of the top 1% contributing 30% of the income tax take. These are people who would find it relatively easy to switch between Scotland and England, so more ‘progressive’ taxation policies would be difficult.

Stopped buying FireTraP when they started “largeing” the letter that I just did.
It didnae last long though.

That is a very credible plan,and indeed administration may not happen.
My point is that Liquidation is extremely unlikely to happen.
One point.
Where is the factual proof that Ayebrokes needs £10m spent on it ,to bring it up to health & safety standards etc?
I have read lots of Tim copy ,but seen no factual proof.

If Ipox is in such a bad state of repair, why have the SFA ordered two cup semi finals to be played there?
Spectator safety must surely come before any CO-inspired helping hand.
Likewise, are here Commenwealth game events due to be played down Govan way?
I hope the relevant Health & Safety peple are monitoring the situation.

This strictly speaking is not a direct answer to your question but an answer of sorts.
The Yes Campaign is succeeding bit by bit. Three months ago it lagged the No Campaign by something like 15 points: now a 3 point swing would see us achieving independence. We are definitely on a roll and the more the No Campaign claim we are too wee and stupid, and are the only country
In the whole wide world that cannot govern itself then the better it is for the Yes Campaign.
Also leading Labour & Tories standing shoulder to shoulder against us strengthens our case even more

It’s not a safety certificate it’s a loyal orange ludge certificate, you knew that of course :>)
