The texts have cost Mackay his job at Crystal Palace, who are now apparently looking for a new manager. According to some reports, both Neil Lennon and Sooperally are in the running. Sooperally? Surely they can't be that desperate? Sooper has really not accomplished much since taking over first at Rangers and then at Bisto. In fact he accomplished nothing at all with Rangers, other than to help get them liquidated and his new team folds under the slightest bit of pressure. It just shows what a pile of keich the story actually is.
As for signing Neil Lennon, Hector, over on Bampots Utd, found an online petition by a 'Crystal Palace' fan demanding that Palace don't employ Lennon: https://www.change.org/p/steve-parish-crystal-palace-no-to-neil-lennon-at-crystal-palace. This supposed Palace fan says the following:
"He has a track record of causing trouble wherever he has gone; from a bad temperament as a player, to fights on the streets of Glasgow, sectarian comments to rival fans, and even causing an unprecedented refereeing strike in Scotland...He won the SPL titles in Scotland against no real opposition, given the demotion of Rangers, and had a poor record in cups and winning games that mattered."
There is only one type of person that would go on about Neil Lennon like that. And there is only one type of person that would claim that 'Rangers' were 'demoted'. Somehow I don't think this guy is a Crystal Palace fan at all!
Another bone of contention on McMurdo's blog is the article in the DR telling us, as we already knew, that Mr. Sorearse has no intention of investing in Bisto FC and, indeed, has never even heard of it. McMurdo claims to have documents that prove Green has been in touch with Sorearse and that big investment is coming Bisto's way. I take it he keeps those documents along with those proving Green's deals with the Dallas Cowboys and Adidas and all those World Cup stars he was going to sign! To be honest, the DR is no more believable than McMurdo but other, saner, people have already shown that Old Sorearse is not coming to the rescue.
McMurdo's disciples feel betrayed by the author of this particular article, Gary Ralston, since he was the one that wrote 'The Gallant Pioneers'. Er...I'd have thought that should have made him more credible among The Peeppul. But, apparently, Ralston is not to blame; it's all the fault of the 'Raynjurz Haturz' that run everything in our country from the background. They even say that there's no point in getting in touch with the Press Complaints Commission, since that's full of 'Raynjurz Haturz' as well! My God, the word paranoia seems to have been invented for them!
One of McMurdo's acolytes says, "I think a much better article based around the efforts on fundraising be it from Soros or anyone else would make much better reading". In other words, nobody's supposed to say anything negative about Bisto FC. This sounds like a desperate plea for a return to the good old days of Jabba and his Succulent Lamb. The Peeppul would rather be fed shit about how everything's wonderful rather than actually find out the truth about their moribund new club. That way, I suppose, it makes it easier for them to blame everybody else when things go wrong!
Staying with the DR and they're apparently shocked by the actions of the current owner of Ferguson's Shipyard. The guy moved £600,000-worth of assets into another one of his companies before he called in the administrators. Absolutely disgraceful, isn't it? All those jobs and people owed money beeing fleeced like that; it's enough to turn your stomach. Funnily enough, the DR weren't shocked when another company did a lot worse than that. The administrators of this company invented a new company, which they claimed was a holding company, and saddled this new company with all the debts. They then did a shady deal to sell ALL the assets for a lot less than they were actually worth. The buyer then claimed that what he'd bought was the subsidiary company and nobody in our media challenged this. Disgracefully, all the creditors were left to chase the spectral 'holding company' while the 'subsidiary' carried on as if nothing had happened. It seems to depend who it is that's conning everybody before our Fourth Estate deems it despicable or not!
Meanwhile the Bettertogetherers are orgasmic over a cancer expert accusing the YES campaign of scaremongering. The Herald says of this character, Professor Alan Rodger, that he "helped transform the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre into one of the best facilities of its kind". So he did that all on his own, did he? He, personally, funded and organised the scattered remnants of the Beatson Centre into a brand-new, state-of-the-art research and care facility? It was the Scottish Government, under the SNP, who accomplished this and Rodger should remember that. He disingenuously points to the privatisation by stealth in England and tries to claim that it won't happen here. Damn right, my dear Professor; because we're going to vote YES to make bloody sure it doesn't!
This reminded me of the ridiculous statement by JK Rowling when she announced her support for the NO campaign and handed over £1m to the Bettertogetherers. She claimed that research into Multiple Sclerosis and the like would be harmed if Scotland were to become independent. Obviously the status quo is much better, eh? That'll be why she had to hand over 10 million quid to aid MS research. Obviously the Westminster Government doesn't provide enough funding, which makes you wonder what her agenda is.
We're all getting fed up with these characters trying to treat us as if we were morons. We can see for ourselves that the NHS isn't safe under the Westminster Government and no amount of lies will persuade us otherwise. Meanwhile, all Labour can come up with is more threats of us not being able to watch Strictly Come Dancing. Personally, I'd see that as a blessing but there probably are those that enjoy it. With all the technology available nowadays, not to mention all BBC regional channels being available on SKY, such threats are nothing more than a pile of shit.
There's a point I was mulling over the other day about our so-called United Kingdom. Same-sex marriages are now legal in all parts of the UK except one: Northern Ireland. Now, the Catholic Church is just as opposed to these marriages as many Protestant Churches but it seems that it's only on the Unionist side that such beliefs affect how members of the Assembly vote. It's Sinn Féin that keeps trying to bring the law into line with the rest of the UK and the DUP that is determined that it's not going to be allowed, threatening to veto the proposal if it gets passed. So it seems part of our 'United Kingdom' is free to run a theocracy that wouldn't look out of place in the Middle East.
Abortion is another contentious issue, where strict Catholics and Protestants are in agreement over it being outlawed. Abortion is pretty much illegal in Northern Ireland but women used to be able to come over to get in done on the NHS in Scotland, England and Wales. This, however, has been clamped down on and any Northern-Irish woman coming over to mainland Britain now has to go private. Now, it doesn't matter how you feel about abortion being immoral or not, it stands to reason that it is far better for it to be done in the safety of a hospital rather than in some backstreet flat by an old crone weilding a bottle of gin and a wire coathanger! This, however, is what the women of Northern Ireland will be reduced to, even though they are citizens of the UK and should be entitled to the same treatment as women in England, Wales and Scotland. So much for the 'United' Kingdom! Better Together? Tell that to those poor women!
Finally, I'm getting a bit concerned about my daughter, who is showing marked McMurdoesque tendencies. She says that the moon landing was faked and points to all the usual crap about 'flags blowing in the wind' etc. She also believes that the US Government was involved in the bombing of the Twin Towers while, at the same time, believing in the threat of international Islamic terrorism. Next thing I know she'll be telling me how a club can still be the same club after liquidation and that there's a huge, international conspiracy to destroy 'Rangers'. I'm beginning to think an exorcism is in order!
P.S. Proof positive that those Huns get everywhere!

ReplyDeletePat I think your e-mail has been hacked I just received an e-mail from you and it has a list of e-mail addresses which I take it is your e-mail address book and a link to a web site which my anti virus blocked
ReplyDeleteI think you're right. My daughter just got an e-mail from me directing her to a dieting website. She was none too pleased!
