youngsod Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 It's OK he can just phone Carter to gie him hauners Mon tae f'ck. Why has it taken this long to crack a pish joke like that? How dare you sully the good name of Detective Inspector Jack Regan by comparing him with that man. Now if you'll excuse me I'm just going to polish of the bottle if whisky in the desk drawer before heading off down the strip club to meet my snout. I bloody love The Sweeney. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Maynard Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 These "hotshot CEOs" have little grasp on their jobs anymore. If they're not ready to walk, they should expect to pushed soon enough. Doncaster won't last till Christmas, and Regan won't be far behind. If the leagues do merge, then Longmuir will be out the door with the old. A feature of modern life is how there has been a complete failure of leadership at the top of corporations. Media, banking, politicians and now football administrators. They are all out of touch with what is actually happening at the coal face. Same old same old won't cut it when there is bare faced cheating, greed and corruption for all to see What we are seeing is "soft power" bringing these people to account. Long may it continue! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Rangers newco: 'Big problem for Scottish society' if Rangers plunge to Third Division Regan: 'There would be a slow lingering death for football in Scotland' (SNS) Regan: 'There would be a slow lingering death for football in Scotland' (SNS) By STEPHEN HALLIDAY Published on Wednesday 4 July 2012 21:26 SCOTTISH Football Association chief executive Stewart Regan has issued a startling warning of "social unrest" in Scotland if newco Rangers are denied entry to the First Division of the Scottish Football League following the emphatic rejection today of their application to retain top-flight football at Ibrox. Regan's remarkable comment came as he insisted admission to the First Division is now the only viable option if Scottish football wishes to avoid what he described as a "slow, lingering death". Regan bluntly asserted that Scottish football simply cannot afford to have Rangers outwith the top two tiers of the league structure, with his argument not confined to the commercial impact their absence would have. "Without Rangers, there is social unrest and a big problem for Scottish society," claimed Regan. "They have a huge fan base and to contemplate the situation where those fans don't have a team to support, where those fans are effectively left without a game to follow, I just think that could lead to all sorts of issues, all sorts of problems for the game. "Tribalism in football is really important. It is part of the game. People follow their clubs with pride, it is passed down from generation to generation. There are thousands of Rangers fans whose fathers and parents and grandfathers have been Rangers fans. You can't contemplate a situation without that and if Rangers weren't to exist that could have real dire consequences. I thought it was difficult to plumb new depths in scaremongering hyperbole after these long months - but by f**k, Regan has managed it against all odds. This level of pish moves on from the intelligence insulting drivel that we've been dealing with into some dangerous territory. The minute we start talking about "unrest", etc (for which there is no factual basis at all), I think it only serves to whip things up further in what is already a tense situation. Utterly irresponsible from the senior exec in Scottish Football to drag the debate to the lowest possible level and the statement makes his position completely untenable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets deal with your excellent points one at a time. "rangers deserved to be punished" Rangers do not exist. They were liquidated. Sevco5088/Sevco Scotland have not been punished. "and relegated" Sevco(s) are not in a league. Therefore they cannot be relegated. Brain certainly in neutral anyway. Regarding United and Thompson, you are entitled to your opinion caller. Thanks for playing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 From the old thread on Regan's appointment: Yorkshire cricket club? What the f**k does this guy know about fitba? Might be good in a way. Concentrate on getting money in, cutting administration costs and red tape. Obviously doesn't have an old firm agenda either. Scottish football is in one hell of a mess , and this guy has no chance of sorting it. Firstly we do not need 3 ruling bodies ........... 2 have to go . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midTONs Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I'm all for compromise now, the SPL/SFA want them in SFL 1 and out the top league for one season, the fans want them in SFL 3 and out the top league for at least 3 seasons. I say stick them is SFL 3 this year, reconstruct the leagues to 2 x 16 and 1 x 10 next season and this gives them the chance to be back with the big boys in 2yrs, nowt wrong with splitting the difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_oats Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Not sure if this has been picked up on, I've been out this evening but Doncaster's changed his tune a bit? "But, when asked if he thought clubs would now face insolvency, Doncaster replied: "I wouldn't have thought so."" http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18714518 What about financial Armageddon Neil? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulo Sergio Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) I cannot believe what I am reading. Regan on Rangers to Third Division: "If we allowed that to happen, it would simply be a dereliction of duty." Mind blowing. Regan: First Division only way to avoid "slow, lingering death" of Scottish football. Does he think it wasn't already dying a slow, lingering death even with Rangers in the SPL? Stewart Regan: "Without Rangers, there is social unrest and a big problem for Scottish society," WOW. Social unrest? The loss of an institution who thrives on bigotry and sectarianism will lead to problems in Scottish society? Did he see what they done in Manchester? Edit: and not to mention the wife beating. Stewart Regan: "Division One for Rangers is the only show in town as far as the future of Scottish football is concerned." Incredible.

somner`s love child Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Findlay is a no? That isn't sitting right at all with me at all You don`t think the Sevco mentality of "let`s see how they get on without us........they`ll go to the wall without our money" sit`s well with this nutjob? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
