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!!

Tony –
Some people are just so unhappy in their own skin, they hate to see anyone else happy and enjoying themselves.

Oh dear it’s those party bimbos at there best,

Wouldnt PL abstain from voting on hun matters?
You would think being a reasonable person he would.
But try telling that to a cynic.
Ohhhhh the bimbos do it in style, not that’s a support.

Who would he be a replacement for ?

The question was, what have Aberdeen done about the current situation in Scottish football? Their tremendous achievement in winning the European Cup Winners Cup is rightly up there with the best results in Scottish football history.

You do realise every video you have put up this morning has come from the Green Brigade section of our Stadium
Brilliant Bhud :-)
central mid/fielder Cowiebhoy, it’s an old fashioned CF we require imo.
Bamboo,
Why should he abstain only a moron would believe he should abstain on maters of integrity especially when dealing with a new club, there is no history or prescedence for such a decision.
The vote was about the candidate being fit and proper to be a director of a football club, a candidate (as Paul reminded us) that failed to carry out the same process when he was responsible to do so at his previous club, a club he helped liquidate due to his lack of integrity. The same candidate then blamed the SFA for not doing his job showing he still did not understand the responsibilities required to be a director of a football club.
I would like to think the vote went 6-2 and that the two dissenters are very unhappy about the situation.

They have a green brigade section at rugby park, oh! How nice of them, naw mate the never walk alone was sung by the whole stadium too, are you insinuating that we can not party without the GB,? Big mistake mate, big mistake, but if it’s grabbing the moral high ground on what you believe, then by all means go for it, HH
Congratulations on dumping BSkyB! See you at the party tomorrow.
Morning all. Hoping someone can give a bit of advice? I received a parking notice from a retail carpark, there was no sign at the entrance. Anyhow, I used the template letter from CAB explains ehy etc, and asking for a run down of cost to the owner. Received their reply just now, no mention of cost or and detail other than signs there, but they have quoted parking eye v beavis. Now we’re in Scotland and that particular case was in London as there are different laws for such things in either country, has anyone any idea what my next step should be. Their still only charging me the minimum (£60 ahem) and I have 14 days to pay it. I know what I want to do, just looking for a bit of help, cheers snecker.

It was supposed to be a bit of fun, never mind well just P4rty tomorrow :-)
Hail Hail
Bada
You’re welcome.
I slipped up big time. Backed the first 3 winners at Musselburgh. Had them in a Yankee too. The fourth one let me down. Don’t get me wrong I had a very nice return, considering I had Rothesay chancer at 8/1, however, had I added that one I fancied and mentioned on here, instead of one in the race before…would have been even nicer.
Serious question. Is he alright? Is it wrong to mock him. Should I just do as most do and completely ignore him? Is he just seeking attention like a troll?
Snecker,
Seen advice on here previously that you should ignore these notices ?

And that’s the way I took it, but forgot to ad this :)) HH
Jobo
Not seen your time put up this morning – over 22mins then :-)
Cheers cowieboy, I saw that too. I know there’s a case in the court in Dundee I think, and whatever the outcome of that is will be the the precedent for all parking notices north of the border.
Looks like I’ve upset the ball droppers from resolution 12.
Ah well, times a great healer.

Burn that notice or throw it in the bin, do anything but pay it.
Snecker,
If it’s not a police notice nor a local authority notice quoting a specific piece of legislation it’s almost certainly not recoverable. They’ll bombard you with letters but I’d ignore them. They will eventually go away.
So it’s a Naw face Ronny as well :-)
Ronny Deila puts naked ambition on hold: Celtic boss won’t be taking strip down memory lane..yet!
THE HOOPS boss won’t be doing the Full Monty this season after failing to bag the treble, but that’s not putting the Norwegian off stripping in the future…
Hail Hail
A glib and shameless convicted leopard can’t change its spots. I wonder what new tax evasion strategies are being dreamt up down Govan way.
Snecker
If it’s not the Polis, bin it. I have a few ‘fines’ for parking in the Forge all day on matchday. The letters will stop soon. :)
Right things to do today, party on bimbos HH. I’m outa here.
Paddy Gallagher
Good to see you post.
Hail Hail
Must say that the new tap looks really braw on my son.
Party weekend starts! :)
