No - an observation at your club's tendency to wallow in any form of tragedy and make it all about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former Old Firm player, football manager and currently chief executive of York City so ticks a lot of boxes. He also boxes a lot of ticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Fifer Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 County chairman in the papers today calling for the SFA/SPFL to amalgamate into one organisation. It makes sense to me, having two separate organisations running the game seems counter intuitive. Never happen mind, too many blazers would lose their jobs so they'll never vote for it.

HibeeJibee Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 There aren't any. People talk about SFA as if it's all "blazers" in "committees" but in actual fact the only committees that still exist are specialist ones on club licensing, refereeing, and medical. Everything else is exercised by the SFA Board (CEO, 2 office bearers, 2 SPFL reps, 1 Amateur FA rep, 2 external directors) or by its pro-game sub-board (CEO, 1 staff member, 2 office bearers, 5 SPFL reps, 1 HL, 1 LL)... Given that Rod Petrie is from an SPFL club; and his successor as VP when he becomes President will almost certainly be the same; and the Board appoints the CEO, staff, and external directors, it's already overwhelmingly SPFL dominated. Many would be far from convinced about merging SFL+SPFL into a "Scottish Football Federation" anyway, given SFA is already very heavily dominated by SPFL and that domination is in turn very heavily concentrated in half-a-dozen hands. At least a separation of responsibility can act as a system of checks and balances. Without it'd we'd probably have 10-team SPL, Rangers into SFL1, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kneal Down Caster Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Heard Leanne Dempster & Neil Lennon getting touted for CEO and Manager. With Rod Petrie on the board he would never in his life vote for it. The overhaul should allow anyone in charge to choose the BEST person for any position without having to answer to a board that would have a vested interest elsewhere.

The Master Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Makes you wonder if this is Malky Mackay doing a Game of Thrones-esque takeover of the SFA, getting rid of everyone until it’s only him left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbydan Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Unless there are major changes to the structure it wont matter who the CEO is, we had a football man in Gordon Smith but he soon found out it was near impossible to get anything done . The clubs could change things if they wanted but self preservation is the name of the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Reportedly the 'other 3' will get their CEO pick:http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/43098581 Former Hearts and Hibernian player Stewart told BBC Radio Scotland's Sportsound: "For the president to come out and introduce the new manager as a mate for years, and having been the chairman of his testimonial committee, is just staggering. "The lack of awareness in that organisation is beyond belief and I've never been so angry, and it's not Alex McLeish because I hope that he goes on and does a good job. Where is the strategic planning? "They've now effectively said that the chief executive role is almost immaterial because they've made the big call without them. "Let's be honest, we all hear the chat, we're all in the industry. And the talk is that we know there's a split board at the SFA. The chat is that Rod Petrie and Alan McRae have got their man, and in return the other faction are going to be allowed to get the chief executive. That's not for the betterment of Scottish football. That is politicking. And it is unacceptable as far as I'm concerned." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I wouldn't have a problem with us promoting from within if we were doing a good job, I can see why continuity in that sense would be a good thing. But, when you've continually failed to help the National team to a tournament, chastised fans and told them Armageddon is on the way, oversaw some of the worst appointments in Scotland's history and fail to get the manager you're after and plumping for someone who had the job previously despite an apparent "long list of good candidates" then it becomes ridiculous that change isn't forced. We'll be stuck with these fucking melts for eternity and nothing will change. It's absolutely staggering that Doncaster is being promoted to the SFA board. I genuinely don't have a clue how we can sit back and allow c***s like that to take home a fucking superb wage for doing the square root of f**k all. Lets fucking riot.
