To the point he pulled Bomber Brown from the steps of Ibrox to make him our manager. It's also not worth forgetting the sheer incompetence of Gardiner; punted from us for failing to get a shirt sponsor then punted from Hearts for forgetting to order seats for their new stand. And he's a proven liar - See the Rab Douglas/Bomber Brown incident - There's a reason he is known as 'spoofer'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They popped up on Twitter from some nobody who had never tweeted before. Am I missing something here? The WhatsApp screenshots appeared on Twitter at 14:06 today, before Gardiner's Sportsound interview. The content of the messages and the timestamps match up exactly with Gardiner's account (he quoted them verbatim). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit suspect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinkyBairn Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 This is getting boring now. Just let the Raith boiz up. They are clearly desperate to get promoted by default. On reflection, thank f**k we’re not in their position. Anything they do from this point onwards is tainted. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the people so desperate to get a certain manager they paid dearly for the privilege...perhaps karma has a place in the whole one point situation? Let’s face reality, there are no lily white teams in fitba. To suggest anything or anyone is more tainted than other is a matter of degrees rather then absolutes. The Dundee situation is so peak fitba so as to make a person wonder how it could happen...and then realize the involved parties and swallow ones incredulous disbelief and simply groan and await the inevitable result of such hubris. The rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer. A team or two will go to the wall and someone, perhaps Kelty, will buy their way into the SPFL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydney Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 So far, we haven’t heard from Dundee FC which is a bit curious given their central role in this situation. An official statement from them with positive confirmation that their vote was indeed submitted has not, as far as I’m aware, been made. All we have is some WhatsApp chat (presumably intended to be private). Cmon Dundee, give us your official position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverthemoon Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Just listening to Sportsound and this Inverness Chairman is full of shit. His only concern is not relegating other clubs and it’s nothing to do with his own club being in a play off spot he claims. At least be fucking honest about it. “Clearly Caley Thistle have set self interest aside” What the f**k Richard Gordon. Never heard such bollocks Edited to say I’ve absolutely no problem with clubs voting out of self interest. But just be fucking upfront that there’s an element of self interest operating here. Playing the ‘we only care about other clubs’ and it’s nothing to do with our own situation is an absolute crock of shit Edited April 12, 2020 by roverthemoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee are currently doing all they can to get concessions that suit them from the cretins at the spfl. They will then come up with a story between the two of them that explains fridays debacle in some tin pot way. The fact we have the people organising this shite on the phone to one club trying to influence their vote in the middle of it is frankly scandalous . Have the vote and then if it fails you discuss between all 42 clubs not just one and then put forward a proposal that people will vote for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not claiming that he’s not arsed about Raith Rovers and is just thinking about other clubs. Shocking that no ‘journalist’ on Sportsound called the ICT Chairman out on his pish.

Guest Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 As I said yesterday if I didn’t love going to see my team it would finish me with football. Reading the garbage coming out from some fans makes it even worse. It doesn’t matter for example how the vote goes for Raith as they will go up whether this is passed or there is reconstruction. Michael Stewart nailed it on Sportsound. Anyone not agreeing with him are as bad as Doncaster and the rest the SPFL Board members. The members of this group of people who pushed this through should be asked to resign immediately along with Doncaster chairman Murdoch MacLennan and independent non-executive director Karyn McCluskey• Ladbrokes Premiership: Alan Burrows (Motherwell), Les Gray (Hamilton Academical), Stewart Robertson (Rangers)• Ladbrokes Championship: Ross McArthur (Dunfermline Athletic), Graham Peterkin (Ayr United) • Ladbrokes League 1 and League 2: Ken Ferguson (Brechin City)Looking at the make up of this outside the Rangers delegate the rest should be hunted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving clubs by getting them their money includes Raith Rovers. Point to me where he said his ‘only concern’ is other clubs and his vote wasn’t influenced at all by his own club in any way. That’s what the ICT guy claimed which is clearly utter tosh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
