  1. Aye same. I always thought he had a great attitude and he seemed to enjoy being part of the set up and being in Scotland. Shame it didn't work out for him.

  2. SNP won’t touch the Celtc BC child abuse with a barge pole. Potentially too many lost votes West Central Scotland. Disappointing to see opposition parties not taking up the challenge

  3. Quite liked Polster as it goes. Don’t think he did too much wrong when he got the nod but never really set the heather on fire either. £300k’s probably aboot bob on. Good luck to the fella

  4. Given the declining education standards in Scotland, I can only see the ScotNat vote share increasing. More morons = more ScotNats.

  5. Tory boys too lazy without Ruthie to slap them about a bit and Labour trawling in the same waters as SNP.

  7. Mikey, Mikey! A change of tact here, before PQ CSC begin broadcasting the weekend bilge, let's set them up on their previous week's garrulous exuberance. Mikey has been absent these last four weeks, but BBC Scotland are telling us Hearts/Partick Thistle have lost their case against the SPFL. I am sure Mikey can not let that pass without comment? Surely, a member of the Foundation of Hearts must take up the cudgel? The real battleground during the week occurred because the first of the former Celtic Boys' Club member's civil case against ra Sellik's contention of being a separate entity, had a preliminary outing in court. PQ's Isabel Fraser interviewed Patrick McGuire, Solicitor to several dozen former members of the Celtic Boys' Club. Isabel fixed bayonets and charged. Isabel blamed the victims. I have been told by several folk that Isabel is wife to Douglas Fraser, BBC Scotland's Economic correspondent? If that is the case, then her performance can be comfortably consigned to exuberance. Douglas is a season ticket holder at Easter Road. The interview was removed from Play Back, and heavily edited before being placed back up for listening. Another interview on the back of the Celtic Boys' Club law suit, was John Beattie's questioning of Pat Nevin. Now, Pat is former CBC and lives in Duns. Interestingly, he is also a current Hibs season ticket holder. He decided to adopt a most strange attitude to events in the 70s. Pat the Rat has always twirled his Biro and shown the utmost angst for those in a state of sufferance. However, on this topic, he adopted a shrug of the shoulders and announced, 'I was all right Jack'. His Dad took the training at CBC and he was safe, but he knew things happened in the cars of known offenders after training/cars. Pat's interview was also taken off Play Back, the nervous sniggerfest was not the correct tone. Again, it reappeared after editing. One wonders what direction Big Dick will take on Saturday?

  8. I have no idea, but I think that I can say, with some confidence, that someone, smoewhere -not Lancs- is at the Madam. Check this from today's Times: League chief Rick Parry’s gaffe over Wigan Athletic EFL chairman discusses bet rumour with fan Matt Lawton, Chief Sports Correspondent Friday July 03 2020, 12.01am, The Times https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/sport/league-chief-rick-parrys-gaffe-over-wigan-athletic-6sm2fptgc?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=newsletter_111&utm_medium=email&utm_content=111_9841707&CMP=TNLEmail_118918_9841707_111 The comments could be a source of serious embarrassment for Parry Rick Parry has been involved in an astonishing conversation with a Wigan Athletic fan during which the chairman of the English Football League said there was a rumour that the club’s administration was linked to “a bet in the Philippines on them being relegated”. Four weeks ago Wigan were sold from one Hong Kong-based company to another, both of which were until recently majority-owned by the same businessman and a high-stakes professional poker player, Dr Choi Chiu Fai Stanley. Au Yeung Wai Kay, a Chinese businessman, has since replaced Dr Choi as the majority shareholder of Next Leader Fund, which purchased the club from International Entertainment Corporation (IEC), a Hong Kong-based, Cayman Islands-registered company, on June 2. But news has emerged this week that the Sky Bet Championship club is now facing a 12-point deduction after being put into administration because the owners are now refusing to invest any more money. That prompted a supporter, who claims to live in Parry’s road in a village in Cheshire, to seek an explanation from the EFL chairman. The fan, who asked not to be named, told The Times last night that he managed to catch Parry as he returned home in his car. In a video that was posted last night on Twitter, which shows only his feet, Parry says: “There are all sorts of rumours. There’s rumours that there is a bet in the Philippines on them being relegated because the previous owner has got gambling interests in the Philippines.” The comments could be a source of serious embarrassment for Parry, 65, a former Premier League and Liverpool chief executive who became chairman of the EFL last year, raising questions about how wise he was to have such a sensitive conversation with a fan on the street. The EFL confirmed last night that Parry had engaged with a fan but was unaware he was being filmed outside his home. A statement from the EFL said: “The EFL is aware of a video of its chairman posted on social media this evening that discusses recent developments at Wigan Athletic. “It was part of a much wider and impromptu discussion he was having with a Wigan supporter he does not know but who lives in the same area. “The private conversation focused around the events of the last 24-48 hours, how the EFL can assist and what happens next. The various rumours and reports that have been circulating throughout today were also discussed. “Whilst the chairman was unaware he was being filmed, he was happy to engage in the debate and appreciates this is a concerning and challenging time for all those associated with the club.”
