Jingle Jackson putting forward a very emotional defence of his dressing room sources.
Sounds like his only sources given the tone of the article

Mark my words, there are things going on behind the scenes which should be setting off alarm bells. I’m told Bates got offered just a £250 pay rise so it’s little wonder he decided it was time to go.
Do tell Kris.

King sized hangover Rangers’ problems right now start at the top – it’s high time Dave King had some major questions asked of him, says Kris Boyd
There will be Gers fans who criticise me for writing this but what's going on at Ibrox right now hurts me just as much as it hurts any of them
Spoiler: click to toggle
Maybe concentrate on Kilmarnock kris you know the club who pays your wages. So unprofessional to be spouting that sort of nonsense when you play in the same league as the club in question.
It's beyond belief that Boyd gets away with this.
What must the Kilmarnock fans think of this??
Mrs Aycliffe was asking me who he was on Sunday,she couldn't get her head round he is still playing for another club in the same league. :rubeyes:

"Although maybe someone on that Ibrox board should just pay him the £20million he supposedly lost to David Murray and watch him go."

Aye, cos there's no end of folk with a spare £20 million lying around that they can just pay him off with. And even then, none of it would enrich the club anyway.

They just don't - or won't - effing learn!

From that Boyd bilge:

"Is there even a shirt deal in place for next season?
Rangers should have their jerseys manufactured by one of the big sports firms, not a smaller company — but that seems to be the way they’re heading."

Why? Companies get what they pay for and they get associated with the baggage. Which is currently as toxic as any Whyte/Green/Mather/Wallace/Llambias stuff.

For what it's worth a Tim supporting mate who works with a kit supplier, who'll remain nameless, was relieved that they did not get the Hun contract which they had bid for, and that the new club's kits will be Umbro next year.

I am not sure that'll meet Boyd's standard. :cuckoo:
Don't get why the nameless kit company applied for the business.if they were relieved not to get it.
He was relieved because as a Tim he would have had to deal with their account.

That level of tribalism obviously doesn't extend to the company he works for.

He seemed adamant it was Umbro. Appears it may be Hummel, but a that appears to be based solely on Hummel following the Huns on Twitter at this point.

If you think about it, Miller and Wallace rounding on the under 20's coach because he can't beat a vastly superior Celtic side is pretty disgraceful. Murty never asked for this responsibility. He's a coach, not a manager. Verbally abusing the guy and screaming at him in front of the other players (especially when one of them is the club captain) is disgusting.

Wallace signed up for the 'journey'. He took the money over a real career and now he's blowing his stack at an innocent party because the reality of his decision is finally sinking in.

Both of them should be out on the street.
Aye. Pathetic from them. You'd think footballers would suss out that even if they win the battle they lose the war and end up getting transferred.

Murty has gambled by helping them out a second time, when no working manager worth their salt would take that job in the current situation - see McInnes for evidence of that.

He dug them out of a hole just by taking it. He's way out of his depth and has looked on the verge of tears after games a few times. No sympathy for him, because he took the job knowing the environment.

But the senior players should have a bit more about them. Miller is 38 and wouldn't be playing under a better manager anyway, regardless of what his missus says on Twitter.

Maybe it's always been there and I've never noticed it, but he seems to see himself as a bit of a ticket these days.

I posted in the Sevco thread that Bill Leckie saying in The Sun today Wallace isn't even injured just now, simply not being selected. Miller would be gone at the end of the season anyway, but it would be interesting what, if any, bids came in for Wallace if they don't sack him/pay him off.

Aye, apparently Murty had said he was fit and available for selection and still left him out.

That was an absolute hatchet job on Murty by Keech. Never ceases to amaze me the Hun press. When they appoint a new manager it moonbeam after moonbeam and how wonderful they are. They are invariably given the easiest ride in football with no criticism at all no matter what happens. When it becomes apparent (like now) that they are not as good as they thought they were going to be and the current Hun manager is not going to get them to the promised land the word goes out and they turn on him. And when they do it is vicious as can been seen here.

It was the same with Captain Trackie. He was "manager" at Clyde and there he was spouting off in the press every week on all matters Sevco. Where else in the world would you have a current player having a column in a national newspaper whose sole purpose is to pass comment on another team in the same league. Wouldn't happen. In fact it wouldn't even happen in Scotland if that team was any team other than Sevco. Can you imagine Gary Mackay Steven been given a weekly column to opine on all matters Celtic? Of course not. The Scottish press are as riddled with huns. Hope you are enjoying the current car crash you pieces of garbage.

It looks to me like they're building up to have Wallace binned entirely. Dave King's done it time and again with employees he finds troublesome but more importantly expensive. Pena will probably be next.

Unless someone comes in for Wallace, but who knows what sort of sweetheart deal he got a couple of years ago (from Dave King, haha) as one of the Icons of Ibrox, lol.

Alex Rae interviewed on shortbread for his take on the latest episode in sevconia.
'I think the board have been indecisive '.
interviewer: 'they've just sacked the 2 most senior players in the team, that's pretty decisive Alex'
'maybe I didn't phrase that right'
he spent the rest of the interview stuttering and contradicting himself throughout, trying and failing to sound semi intelligent.
why anyone at the BBC thought this moron could bring any semblance of insight into this, is astounding.
perhaps having an EBT gets you a free pass on the nation's broadcaster.
They employ Derek Ferguson and Billy Dodds so what’s one more stuttering moron between friends?

So, who is writing ‘Boyd’s’ articles? WTF among that fraternity of players, ex-players or journos would have had the faintest awareness or even interest in kit deals? And, fascinatingly, ‘Boyd’ dares to suggest that King’s £20m investment in the old huns didn’t happen! That’s red line crossed right there! Presumably it’s Grieve who knocks this guff out under Boyd’s name, who owns Grieve? Park? Is this the start of the huns’ favoured, ‘death-by-a thousand-slurs’ technique, for running guests out of Ibrox who have outstayed their welcome/usefulness?

The club tried to put a positive spin on things when they brought in a handful of players during the January transfer window but it wasn’t good enough.
I may have bought into it myself, if I’m being honest. I looked at the signings and talked them up, mainly because I wanted to see them do well.


Boyd admitted to basically just being a cheerleading moonbeam peddler.
Shocked!

Do folk actually care much about this?
I want to see Celtic treated like every other club. I want our matches to be officiated fairly, I want our club to be treated with respect by the media and I want our achievements given due credit. The reason those conditions don't prevail is not because we a 'Big Club', or that we have succeeded through some manner of skullduggery: we are singled out because of our heritage and history. Scotland's Shame is it's centuries old antipathy towards Ireland/Catholicism, and pathetic little gestures like denying Brendan Rogers the acclaim he deserves is another manifestation of that antipathy.
Isn’t Stevie Clarke a Celtic man though?

Wouldn’t mind if he won it, although obviously Brendan would deserve it should he get the treble.
In a league with as little prospect for success for most teams have, I do think you need to be a little more sharing with the smaller trophies.

I don’t think any manager looks back on their MOTY awards if they actually won trophies that season.

There have been 31 SFWA Manager of the Year awards since 1986/87. In that time only Celtic (14) and Rangers (17) have won the league.

In that time Huns managers have won it 11 times. Celtic managers have won it 10 times. Nine other clubs have had managers who won it once each, and it 1990 is was given to Andy Roxburgh.

Five Treble years in that time, with all managers winning MoTY that year. Albeit the awards would all have been dished out well before any Treble would have been known about, maybe even a few league titles.

Jim McLean got the first, in a season when his team got to UEFA Cup Final and Scottish Cup Final, losing both, and finished a strong third in the league in a 44 game league season. The more you think about that, it is an absolutely phenomenal tale of endurance and heartbreak for what would have been such a small squad. That year the Huns won the league for the first time in years under Souness.
