Just look at what happened to FARE

i would if i could!

what is it we are looking at?

As for McBride, we were getting slaughtered by every media outlet in Scotland (and the UK thanks to pressure from the Rangers-minded)

what on earth does this tripe actually mean?
---------------------------

You mean that untrustworthy Asian woman who is apparently a 'Celtic fanatic' having her husband under the thumb doing her bidding? Far more press attention was given to that than the undoubted fact that Rangers fans were indeed guilty of what FARE accused them of.

Kenny Clark and other refs were quite happy to go on the likes of SSN, Radio Five, Newsnight and Talksport blaming the whole situation on Celtic rather than admitting they had actually been at fault themselves. Strangely, they were nowhere to be seen when one of their colleagues was manhandled by a non-Celtic player several months later. The Scottish sports media didn't seem as concerned of the welfare of this profession as they had been when it was Celtic and their fans who were being demonised. Rangers and their poodles in the media used that situation to their full advantage.

Whits FARE got to do with this harvey? You blamed the SFA for your failure to stop us winning the league several years running. Would it not have been more constructive putting a team on the park that could beat us,rather than rely on dossiers,anonymous statements inferring bias,even wheeling out the Lions to proclaim you've been cheated for the last 50 years. Scottish football fans weren't tired of the SFA,they were tired of CELTIC,and their inability to accept defeat without it being down to some mad conspiracy. Now its gonna be all better cos Lawwell's kissed and made up with his pal Regan? Aye we'll see how long that lasts

"We fully supported Stewart Regan's plan for reform and we feel that the creation of this new Board is a very positive outcome of the SFA's own review.

Professional Game Board:
Chairman: Rod Petrie
Members: Jim Ballantyne, Neil Doncaster, Peter Lawwell, David Longmuir, Alan McRae, Campbell Ogilvie, Stewart Regan, Sandy Stables and Ralph Topping.

what difference will it make? im flumuxed

the ref stated at the hearing that at no time did he feel threatened, it was a plea not to send him off the ref says

FS are you lawwell,again with the poor us Your manager and chairman declared war on the SFA long before the season started,any keech flying your way was the same keech you'd flung previously
-------------------

Celtic never declared war on anyone. What made you think they did?

You certainly weren't above the 'poor us' when it came to FARE.

posted on 19/7/11

dont you know that all the sectarian problems are all rangers problems, after all wee mo only signed 23 years ago
---------------------------------

How exactly did Rangers and their poodles in the media react to FARE's accusations?

You signed Mo Johnstone to GIRU Celtic.

celtic caused the ref strike by calling their integrity into question, they felt they had no option but to withdraw their labour

Bit of a hang up about FARE here mate,considering they have nowt to do with Scottish football. Classic timmy deflection. Naw of course they never declared war,you weren't gonna get right in their faces and naebody mentioned we'll no longer be treated like second class citizens. You never hired a QC to dish out veiled threats either. As I said deluded

Quite possibly the most absurd and stupid remark I've ever read. Do you really think we shelled out a fairly substantial sum (in those days) just to GIRU you lot?

FFS, you need help

actually mo was an exceptional striker at the top of his game when we signed him and that is why we signed him, loved wee mo(at ibrox)

Harvey........Rangers fans are not associated with the guys who threatened Lennon,so you do not have to patronize Bears on here,thanks all the same.
You say the tabloids and phone ins are to blame for the Lennon threats.How do you know this?It could be hatred for Lennon,his words and actions and Celtic,simple as that?Why not blame society,drink,drugs,ned culture and the government too?
Rangers allegedly blaming Fare for their troubles according to Harvey.When Fare focus on the sectarian and hate filled actions by celtic fans I am sure Harvey and all bhoys will welcome Fare's attention.Perhaps you have to beat diddy teams in Europe first though,to reveal the ugly face of the bhoys,as seen by all in Scotland and England.

-----------------------

As much as I despair of the bowling club mentality at the SFA and the strange priorities of Scottish refs, I have never blamed either of them for our failure to win one of the last three league titles. That's quite simply revisionism of the worst kind.

And yes, I get that the whole of Scottish football was tired of Celtic which led me to question why some people are so upset that Celtic and the SFA have taken steps to try and put an end to this.

If Lawwell was so close to Regan, as many deranged bloggers claim then wouldn't he have had something to say about McCoist, Diouf and Bougherra getting let off the hook? If Celtic win the league next year, can we look forward to the same ridiculous conspiracy theories?

The dossier is along with the video evidence, of Neil Lennon racially abusing Gers players in the tunnell. Remember that one?

Rangers hired a QC for the Govan 3

Probably thee biggest farce that took place within the game last season.

Oh and btw,

Dougie McDonald questioned referees integrity

Despite the necessary changes being made within the SFA, for the better of our game...there'll be no thanks to Celtic for exposing their draconian failings

-------------------------

Unlike when Bougherra manhandled a ref and they felt no such urge to defend their integrity.

If Rangers had caught a ref lying to them as McDonald had done that day then they would have pursued the same course of action and you know it.

Did anyone connected with Rangers in a working capacity mention anything to do with a video of this or was it a rumour started on some websites? No.

Did an employee of Celtic suggest they had a "dossier" to show examples of bias against Celtic? I believe they did

Oh, and I believe there's only ever been one club in Scotland who have hired a private eye
