Evening folks, both the old firm have had their share of cringeworthy moments from the boardroom in recent years. But what do you think has been the most embarrassing from your club as a bit of fun?
From my memory, the Jelavic 9m from an unknown agent at an unknown club is an obvious contender, as is the "I will spend a tenner for every fiver Celtic put down" or the "theres not light at the end of the tunnel, its moonbeams" a year or two before the bank took over.
From Celtic there are a good couple. "Sporting integrity" was the excuse used not to extend a season when the old firm were in a shoot out for the title,whilst every time John Reid opened his mouth you could see the Celtic fans covering their faces in embarrassment. However the best that springs to mind was back in the days of Jock Brown when he said Di Canio was not for sale at any price and would not be sold. A week later he was at Sheff Wed but when quizzed about previous comments he defended himself by saying "Di Canio was not sold, he was traded for a better player in Regi Blinker."
Yes the old firm fans may be fickle and some may be borderline insane, but I am not sure even some of the nutters could humiliate themselves to the same extremes as some of the guys running our clubs.
Any others?
Biggest Embarrassment?

NumberSeven - And perhaps the single biggest embarrassment is that despite all that we are without dispute the best team in the country right now and have been for the past 3 years. We welcome the chase.
However in terms of fans, there is without question the single most embarrassing moment in Scottish Football History in the video below. This will be talked about for generations.

The rangers fans singing "we're gonna take Scott brown" at the hibs fans was quite embarrassing!
I remember years ago Richard Gough scoring against
Celtic and running about like a wee girl pushing both hands in the air, all fingers extended, trying to tell us it was going to be 10 in a row...... King of kings said "Naw!"
