Phil Mac Whatsit is adamant that he is right about the crumbling finances of Bisto FC. According to him, Bisto will be lucky to make it to the end of February. It seems that he has a mole inside Ibrox, who's keeping him up to date on what's going on there. Apparently, Mr Blobby is fighting a losing battle in his attempts to cut costs and bring in investors and the brown stuff is going to hit the fan quite soon.
On McMurdo's blog, the guy that calls himself PZJ, short for Pharaoh, Zebedee and Jordan or some such, is equally certain that Celtic are soon to be hauled over the coals. He and his followers are still banging on about 'State Aid' and quoting incomprehensible bits of legal documents to prove that the whole of the UK economy has been operating merely to serve the needs of Celtic FC.
The funny thing is that commentators on both blogs are scathing about the Scottish media not reporting on all this. The ones on Phil Mac's blog moan about the 'Rangers'-loving press, while on McMurdo's site the complaint is that Peter Lawwell has the Fourth Estate in his pocket. So who to believe?
Well, I've said before that Phil Mac has a good track record when it comes to breaking the stories that everyone else is scared to touch. Remember, it was he that first told us about the financial problems at Rangers and he was also proved correct when he told us about Dallas and his sectarian e-mail. So, I think I'll plump for Phil Mac being right; although it might just be wishful thinking on my part!
The problem with the stuff that the Bisto Kids keep telling us is that it reeks of desperation. As if it's not bad enough having to rely on the Derry Dinosaur Jockey, who was given the bum's rush in the House of Commons, their insistence that there is already an investigation going on, when there isn't, shows how desperate they are. The fact is that Celtic have just been asked about the allegations and have been approached to provide documentation, which they have done. This is in stark contrast to the way Rangers refused point-blank to co-operate with HMRC, dragging things out for years and leading to the police having to go in and seize files. It certainly looks like Celtic, unlike Rangers, have nothing to hide.
McMurdo's cohorts have finally come to the realisation that relying on Dave King is a complete waste of time. Not all the Bisto Kids, however, have reached this conclusion and there are many of them that still see the crook as the Messiah. One of them said, 'If the Easdales trust him, then that's good enough for me.' So they want a convicted crook on the board, swayed by the recommendation of two gangsters! If he does decide to come in, which I doubt, there is no way in Hell that the stock exchange, even the AIM diddy one, will allow him on the board. And you know fine well who would get the blame; Peter Lawwell!
With the upsets in the Scottish Cup at the weekend, we heard from two managers. Terry Butcher was absolutely scathing about his team, while congratulating Albion Rovers and saying that they deserved to win. Equally, Neil Lennon laid into his own team but congratulated Aberdeen and said that they deserved to win. Guess how the Bisto Bigots painted this? They tried to say that Butcher had been magnanimous in defeat, saying that Rovers deserved their win, while Lennon did nothing but disparage his own team and was completely disrespectful to his victorious opponents. They'll do anything to keep the myth that 'he brings it on himself' going!
The best laugh of the week was provided by all the Bisto Kids, banging on about how they're going to do 'The Treble' and win the Scottish Cup. Maybe they haven't noticed but they've had an easy ride so far and haven't had to face a proper team yet. One clown came on the Daily Record phone-in to say that winning this 'Treble' would be a greater achievement than Celtic winning the European Cup! They really are deluded. One of the players ('stars') said that it would be as big an achievement as reaching the UEFA Cup final in 2008. He could be right; from what I remember Rangers had a pretty easy ride through that competition as well, playing the likes of the Slovakian Girl Scouts Association. If they get to the final it will be the same story; Aberdeen or Dundee Utd will tear them a new arse.
On the subject of the UEFA Cup, I always find it strange that, from what you read and hear in our media, you'd never know that Celtic reached the final of the UEFA Cup years before Rangers. They beat some quality teams on the way too, like Liverpool and, the sweetest of all, Blackburn Rovers. The latter was worth getting beaten in the final, just to see the puss on Graeme Souness!
Today the DR 'celebrates' Rangers going into administration. As usual Craig Whyte gets the blame for everything, even though, apart from lying about his previously being banned, he actually did nothing wrong. The deal with Ticketus was all perfectly above board and legitimate and he cleared Rangers' debt with it. If, as we keep being told, the deal was fraudulent, shouldn't Lloyds TSB be handing the money back, since it is the proceeds of a crime? Nobody's going to go down that road though!
I notice on the DR forums that a bit of sectarianism and racism is creeping back in. Many posts get deleted but some of the anti-Catholic and anti-Irish ones seem to be allowed to stand. For example, there's a couple today telling us all to go home and work in the 'tattie fields'. My great-grandfather came from County Derry and had to come here to get work as there was none at all where he lived; entirely due to the old 'RCs need not apply' phenomenon. To all those screaming about us 'going home,' I'd be perfectly happy to oblige. But first you'll need to get all those fucking dinosaur jockeys out of there. If they'd stayed in their own country in the first place then my family would never have needed to come over here at all!
The only Trebles you'll see at Ibrox -
Sooper's and Mr Blobby's chins!
Hears one for you pat have you seen all and sundry wheeled out to talk about the dark days about rangers going in to administration now even MCcoist admits rangers went in to administration so can some one tell me what day did rangers fc come out of administration ????
ReplyDeleteI know and our media seem terrified to mention the word 'Liquidation.' They're desperately trying to airbrush that particular event from history!
