That demented gobscheidt King is at it again.

Quote:
 
THE Club notes with concern the latest disclosure through the media regarding a business relationship which the Chairman of the SPFL has with leading shareholders of a fellow SPFL club.

This has given rise to allegations of non-disclosure and it is now imperative that we discover exactly the nature of the information supplied to the SPFL regarding this relationship.

It is equally important that any conflicts of interest, or even the perception of such, whereby positions within the Scottish football authorities could be undermined, or abused, must be aggressively rooted out of our game.

The SPFL, therefore, must immediately suspend its Chairman pending an independent investigation by a senior QC into the allegations and into the extent that other parties within the SPFL may have cooperated in this alleged non-disclosure. There is a clear prima facie case for this investigation.

Unfortunately for Scottish football, this incident immediately follows a similar call by myself for an independent non-executive director of the SFA to be suspended under similar circumstances. The credibility of Scottish Football in the minds of supporters and sponsors is at stake and urgent action is required. Transparency will be key to recovering the confidence of key stakeholders in Scottish football and this cannot be achieved if the SFA and/or the SPFL conduct internal investigations.

The SPFL and SFA must now appoint independent investigators. Scottish football is an important national asset and must have levels of probity and governance that are beyond reproach and that are transparently so.

'If they want a fight King will give them a fight' said the huns. Kings problem is that no one is bothered, and his record at fighting is of a man who storms in all guns blazing, only to be knocked spark out.

That's a nice idea, but you're crediting him with craftiness he doesn't have.

Too many people go looking for grand plans that don't exist.

Hanlon's Razor actually.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

It's a common theme running through King's stewardship of Sevco.

King is Chairman of RIFC which as far as I know has no connection to the SFA/SPFL. Surely any matters like this should be raised by Robertson as MD of the club

They all think the same way.

They’re similar to a degenerate gambler chasing their winnings and refusing to accept reason until they’re totally potless, then they’ll blame the bookie for having the audacity to allow them to bet in the first place.

I feel a bit sorry for Gerrard now. Imagine being a few days out from starting a massive job only to discover your new chairman has started, and lost, a war of words with the SPFL over a nothing matter. In any other organisation this week would be all about the rookie manager but King just has to steal the headlines.
No, I don’t feel sorry for Gerrard. Everyone from Robbie Williams to the dugs in the street know
they’re skint and King is a GASL, and if he didn’t know, a quick google search would have informed him of same.
I think it’s universally accepted that Stevie is thick, but come on, surely his agent would have known the set up,
as it’s not exactly a secret that they can’t afford to pay upfront for players, never mind get guys to drop their
salaries for the honour of playing for an untried under 18 coach, even if he was a brilliant footballer.

Then there’s their widely known propensity for creating havoc everywhere they go, and being the biggest shower of bigots
to follow a football club. In any other country they’d they’d be pariahs, severely sanctioned.
This is the reason I never feel sorry for anyone who joins them in any capacity.

Trying to discredit the ones investigating you, so when you're found guilty you can claim they were biased - straight out of the Donald Trump playbook.

And this lack of personal responsibility runs through every aspect of their being. When they went into Admin, Alistair Johnston went on telly to claim, staunchly, that the banks should be held responsible for what happened as they, "loaned us money that they knew we couldn't pay back".

He was an absolute dick even before he rocked up at sevco. He's totally out his depth and the fallout is going to be magnificent.
