26th of foot 6,084 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 The current Scottish football Compliance Officer, Claire Whyte has indicated she wants to avail herself of a new, exciting opportunity in the New Year. The SFA have her resignation, however Claire has assured Ian Maxwell she will remain in post until her successor is appointed. When appointed, Claire was wife of then Head Teacher at St Cadoc's Primary School. St Cadoc's football club has largely filled the vacuum left by the demise of Celtic Boys' Club. Claire and her husband had season tickets at Parkhead for many seasons. Further, she was employed as a Solicitor at Sellik's Lawyers, Harper McLeod. Both of Claire's predecessors as Compliance Officer had similar backgrounds. Tony McGlennan was also a former Sellik season ticket holder and as recently as March of this year, went public in his desire to see his beloved Sellik crowned champions in a Covid suspended season. Tony believed there were no obstacles to the award of the league flag, based on sporting merit. Tony succeeded Vincent Lunny, another former Sellik season ticket holder. Vincent is on record as saying his appointment to the designation, "was down to pure luck". So, who will be the next beneficiary of Peter's pure luck? Below is the approved short list : 1. Jum Spence. 2. Gerry Adams. 3. Angela Haggerty. 4. Cardinal O'Brien. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Cadoc's Youth Club isn't connected to the primary school, and I don't believe it's got close links with Celtic. Celtic Boys Club isn't demised, it's still going under the name of St Patrick's Sports Academy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 15,294 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Michael Stewart must be in contention, given he prompts most of the cases for consideration (via Sportscene) anyway. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,678 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Will there be a replacement CO? The SFA were having redundancies were they not? This could be one of them. Not exactly an essential role is it if all things are considered? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMAA 3,658 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Put in a couple of fictional over-qualified CVs, but with very different sounding primary and secondary schools, and see which of your fictional characters gets a call to come for an interview. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtic Boys Club isn't demised, it's still going under the name of St Patrick's Sports Academy. Bluedell, St Cadoc's FC/Youth Club was founded in 1987 by the then Janitor of St Cadoc's Primary School Janitor, David Jones. The current Chair and successor to Claire Whyte's husband is the current Janitor. My reference for this piece of information is last Friday's edition of, 'A View from the Terrace'. They did a five minute piece on St Cadoc's. I agree, there are no formal links to ra Sellik, but the connections are numerous. Tommy Burns, Pat Bonner, Mark Wilson, Andy Walker, .... etc have all coached the teams. The administration has been extremely top heavy with Sellik minded lawyers. I believe the fund raising activities are stellar. St Cadoc's teams across sport compete regularly in Euro' competitions. Currently, St Cadoc's ground share with St Anthony's Junior Football Club at McKenna Park. A couple of years past, Angela Haggerty appeared on Shereen Nanjiani's show on BBC Radio Scotland. Now, Angela has a big mouth, she notoriously outed Mhari Black's girlfriend on Twitter, a girl who at that point was not 'out' to her immediate family. Anyways, on Shereen's she gave her moment of the week as St Cadoc's winning the Ajax Youth tourney in Holland. I am told she was given quiet words from Kevin McKenna, St Cadoc's did not wish such publicity. Kevin McKenna(former Editor of ra Sellik View) is Godfather to Angela's several month old son. I think St Cadoc's has been deliberately placed by selected Sellik minded to be natural successors to the separate entity? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
