Keith Jackson saying that Robertson was not informed about Maclennan (after saying all clubs were informed) and also questioning Maclennans loyalty because of the wage he may be earning from INM, "So Rangers have every right to examine this whole process especially as, according to the company’s accounts, the man MacLennan succeeded as non-executive chairman at INM was taking home a basic salary before bonuses of 165,000 euros a year, Which presents another huge problem in terms of perception as, if it were ever to come to the crunch, legitimate questions would almost certainly be asked about where his loyalties lie."

Ignore King if he pipes up again.

That will infuriate him & the huns even more than saying anything anyway.
Exactly. Jacksons a tool as well. He started this knowing GASL was looking for milk bottles to pour petrol into. Now he’s doing his Mrs Flanders will someone please think of the children.

There are ten other clubs in SPFL outside ourselves and Sevco. If they thought McLennan was nothing other than a Dermot plant I'm sure they would have something to say.

Incidentally all I know about McLennan is the rather unflattering stuff written about him in Private Eye over the past couple of years when he ran the Telegraph and was nicknamed Shifty McGifty. His record at the Telegraph wasn't good by all accounts but that has sweet FA to do with him being a stooge for Celtic.

If you look at the kind of stuff written by the "State Aid" guy or on Mark Dingwall's website, its almost how dare anyone who is a Celtic fan or who is connected in any way to those who run Celtic (no matter how tenuous) have a position of responsibility within a newspaper, broadcaster, governing authority, or government either at local or national level. That is level King is now operating in.

Shifty McGifty was in most editions of Private Eye, renowned as useless techwise IIRC and made a disastrous appointment as editor of the Telegraph.
Reckon this farce is down to the staunch-sounding McLennan not bending to the will of the scum, as was expected when he was appointed. Maybe he has standards and dignity that aren’t going down well in Govan, and even in the SPFL, and a slur like this is the scum’s way to start rolling the snowball to bowl him over.
The INM job was known months ago and is a complete red herring.

So McLennan then is the good guy. I know all about Hairpiece. That's why I was surprised when I though someone here thought well of him.

The likeability factor is clearly not going to be high with McLennan. A career in newspapers is unlikely to endear him to anybody. Especially given he wound up at the Torygraph, with its frequently damaging and poisonous editorial positions that were more tabloid than broadsheet.

However none of that has any bearing on his role as chairman of the SPFL. He's there to do the League's bidding among others in that fraternity in the corridors, functions and boardrooms he currently moves between. If that yields something more constructive with regards the SPFL's commercial and media arrangements at home and abroad, then his appointment will have quickly paid for itself. The worry obviously would be the substantial reporting around him being a technophobe, indicating he'd probably favour old media.

A recent alternative is someone like Lex Gold punting all of his chips on zero at the roulette table by basically becoming beholden to Setanta's clearly flawed and failing business model. With inevitable consequences.

The problem is when you've got known loose cannons like King invoking Statement O'Clock twice a week, basically showing a willingness to set himself on fire just so everybody else can get slightly burned, then any credibility the SPFL has with prospective commercial and media partners takes a hit.

They cannot just ignore someone who is bringing the game into disrepute. It smacks of having no control over him or Sevco. Why is that?

It would indicate the organization or those in power within are compromised.

When Charles Green said Rangers treatment could have had a sectarian element they let him away with it.

When Romanov said the game was full of corruption they let him away with it.

When Allan MacDonald questioned Hugh Dallas's body language after he patted Van Bronkhorst's behind, they threw the book at him

It’s been said before - how can the SPFL “rap” King ? What jurisdiction have they got ? They can rap Robertson but he’s said eff all. Funnily enough. Jackson’s article is balls. What are they supposed to do other than to tell him to stop talking shampooe. Which they’ve done twice. Tam Haas is right. Let him santer away.
