gmcf 34,303 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 1) The fact that the briefing paper that was sent to the clubs wasn’t approved by the board, we hadn’t seen it when it went out to the clubs. We didn’t know what was in that. And you realise afterwards that all this information had been omitted. I just don’t think it’s right.” 2) SR: “In terms of it being dealt with even-handedly I can only go on what people have told me and this is part of the reason we need an independent investigation. When you hear that this has been reported to the chief executive, and he’s aware of it, he certainly didn’t report it to the board, certainly not when I was there. “Did he report it to the chairman? Did he investigate it? As a fellow member of the company and someone who is a board director of the SFPL, if someone is making some kind of threat to others members that should be investigated. Did Murdoch (SPFL chairman MacLennan) know about it? I don’t know. Maybe that’s a question for Murdoch.” 3) You look at the misleading information put out in Murdoch’s Q and A on the Gretna situation when he talks about loans being written off. “We have seen in the last couple of days that if you go back to the accounts there have been no loans written off at all. Again, that’s been advances received. There is every opportunity to pay the advances as the rules stand today. At no point did Rod, Neil or anyone say to us: ‘You can actually do that today. You can do that already’. 1 hour ago, Bobby Hume said: Good post mate ...... hard as it is to believe that your bit in bold could ever come true ..... but when you look what happened to us ...... any club and it's support who have now had the chance to review our dossier and not seen the need for change ..... will sadly remain in the 18th century to their detriment and don't deserve anything better. 🇬🇧 There you are Bobby , 3 examples of a badly run organisation when big decisions are made by certain individuals , where even the board of that organisation seem to have zero input , not to mention the clubs . That's no way to run Scottish football . As SR says , it's being fun as a dictatorship , not a democracy . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
southcoastbear 1,639 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I see that yet another senior Raith official has come out bumping his guns against our club. With the new chairman clearly having the cajones for the fight the previous bridge building incumbent didn't, surely we must stop helping these swine by loaning them the cream of our youth academy and the like. This club has had a succession of these muppets putting the boot into Rangers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that the hope of reconstruction is gone a few more clubs may want an Independant Inquiry as they may just recognise that they have been lead down a garden path to no where by the SPFL again.

MacLennon wrote a statement in retaliation to the dossier (5 pages) answering (some) of Rangers questions. Once again, they have opened their mouth to worse effect imo. Cheers mate. Quick read and note that it erroneously claims that we alleged bullying and coercion when in fact we clear;y stated that other clubs had actually made such claims. We merely reported and commented on them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 42,900 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 The reconstruction talks hitting the shitter could be a blessing in disguise for us. Clubs that were promised reconstruction will now see the SPFL for what they are. The fact they ever thought it would happen is laughable anyway but the more enemies of the SPFL the better.

I think you could be right, and it wouldn't surprise anyone. Pretty much how most would expect it to play out. Kinda torn on it to be honest. On the one hand, it's always about self interest and some teams will only be in it for themselves, i get that. If they jump into another bed after this though and play the 'betterment/integrity of Scottish Football' card it kinda shows them up. Part of me is like, fuck them, go fuck yourselves, but of course any additional allies, regardless of how it unfolds, I guess is welcome. No doubt so more gloves will be coming off so could be fun to watch! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
