The word of the day is anosognosia, def. a deficit of self-awareness.
While discussing his Fit and Proper examination by the SFA, Dave King told the media that “If the level of detail that was applied to me was applied to Craig Whyte then he would never have taken over the club. The club would have had a chance.”
It was Dave King’s job to examine Craig Whyte’s Fit and Proper status, not the SFAs!!! Dave King was on the board which approved Whyte’s takeover. The SFA were not and should not have been involved in determining the suitability of Whyte’s appointment, which was the exclusive responsibility of the Rangers board.
The SFA subsequently sanctioned the club for failing to carry out its duty in this respect.
Let’s look at that quote again and allocate responsibility:
“If the level of detail that was applied to me was applied to Craig Whyte [by me, when it was my job to do so]then he would never have taken over the club. The club would have had a chance.”
There is no Fit and Proper test. Criteria are published to allow clubs to determine the suitability of appointments. Whyte did not meet the suitability required. If anyone on the Rangers board had taken the trouble to check Whyte’s credentials (which they had a fiduciary and SFA obligation to do so), and informed the SFA of their findings, Craig Whyte would have been stopped in his tracks.
A note to my friends in the media:
Guys, ignoring stuff like this is why people said you were compliant with Whyte, Green and Murray. Don’t come back a year from now and say you didn’t know.
Dave King is a gift. You know what he’s going to do, you know how this ends.
As most of you will know, RWE lost his son, Tony Conway, earlier this year to MND. 12 of Tony’s friends are walking 100km tomorrow and Sunday, from London to Brighton. If any CQN’ers are local, they’re looking for moral support more than money, so here’s the route they’re taking. They start on Twickenham Road at 9:40 tomorrow morning, hoping to reach Brighton around 7:00 on Sunday.
Tony appears to have inspired a lot of people, which is a none too shabby legacy.
It’s season ticket Deadline Day!!

I also feel passionate about it for the same reasons. Good luck collecting signatures on Sunday.
I am not so against PL. Take my views on what I write or say and not what other say I believe. I’ve no objection to you not wishing to be photographed with him.

Fair play, keep going.
Thanks.

It can be re-posted if you think there is a clown with the inability to read back old posts that would benefit from it.

What should be done to stop all these people on overladen boats landing on European shores to escape NATO bombing?
Sensational
Cognitive dissonance abounds amongst the Celtic hardcore.
God’s story, who knows where it’s gonnae go, most of the Celtic Support Worship God so we should be OK.

Letters to the editor:
I worked as a teacher a few years ago. In a departmental ‘Spring clean’ in 2007, the Principal Teacher of my department found a bundle of old ‘O’ Grade exam papers hiding under a filing cabinet in a cupboard. We selected questions that were relevant to the modern ‘S’ Grade and ‘Higher’ courses, and set them for our Higher class. They were then marked by the Principal Teacher, and the entire Higher class of 27 kids were told a few days later that they would ALL have failed this exam. The pupils were in uproar, and came out with every excuse under the sun as to why they hadn’t been successful. The Principal Teacher then dropped the bombshell that they had been sitting a series of ‘O’ Grade questions… the predecessor to ‘Standard Grade’, and that this was therefore conclusive proof that the exams had been dumbed down over successive years.
A generation or two ago, university was for the elite, the top 5%, the most academically able. Now, 50% of Scottish school-kids head off to university. A few decades ago, Scotland produced some of the world’s finest academics, scientists, engineers, and inventors. Now we’re an inward looking, parochial wee country where many go though life with a victim mentality and a huge chip on their shoulder.

‘and that this was therefore conclusive proof that the exams had been dumbed down over successive years.’
##
Therefore conclusive proof?
Yep, it ain’t like the old days when academic rigour and critical thinking meant something.
Ernie
Would absolutely love to think that after all this time,we actually agree about something.
Even if it were the means through which we form our opinions.
However much those opinions may differ.
Hail Hail :-)
Ernie
I didn`t write the letter.
Perhaps not conclusive,unless of course you use the plethora of supportive evidence.
I see Alistair Carmichael has admitted to faking the Nicola Sturgeon memo during the General Election campaign.
Carmicheal should resign.
Ernie Lynch should resign too.

The Scottish FA were last night facing fresh questions over the process which ended in Dave King being granted fit-and-proper status.
LOL

I’ve not posted in here for months and as soon as I do you continue to bully me. Now you are telling me to FO. #CelticFamily
The tale of the real posts, not the ones People make up, no wonder resolution 12 didn’t get past start, but I did say that at the time, so we move on. But I like to defend myself when people are on at 2am bumping there gums and telling Dave Kings about me.
