This Sevco saga seems to be revealing people in their true colours.
The Cheeky Chappie’s mask slips by the day.
I can reveal his latest outburst, that he had stormed out a SFA meeting and would never accept his former club being stripped of past titles and cups,has led to families of SFA executives being threatened.
This latest sinister outburst resulted in such an outpouring of bile and bitterness that police had to become involved.
You may ask why this has not been recorded in the mainstream press? It is indeed a valid query; they perhaps are two busy with James Traynor exclusive that there are white knights still wanting to invest £millions in the possible third division newco.
Of course the cheeky chappie has a history of exacerbating fraught situations and then disappearing like a blue ghost into the night without culpability.
Remember the confrontation with Neil Lennon, we may never know what was said but there was only one guilty party in the eyes of the mainstream press and it certainly wasn’t the Cheeky Chappie.
“Who are these people? I want to know who these people are?”
That was the Cheeky Chappie’s inflammatory outburst when the SFA’s fast track panel called for a transfer ban on his former club.
A premeditated battle cry to the Larkhall loyal and their army of cohorts. There are those that see the latest outburst as the Cheeky Chappie positioning himself for the “I do walking away” moment.
When innocent people are threatened and death threats are made one would have hoped Mr McCoist would be more careful when choosing his words.
The Larkhall loyal don’t want careful words, they are clinging to every syllable uttered by the Cheeky Chappie in the same way a drowning man would cling to any passing flotsam and driftwood.

Phil (et all), with regards to the tax cases etc. Was there something posted in the not too distant past that informed us of a change in the (corporate) law? Effectively meaning debts of a liquidated company can be recovered from any new company emerging from the ashes??
I’m trying to work out how the taxes owed by old, pan breed Rangers (1872-2012) can or will be attributed to the new team/company. This would surely tip the new club over the edge?

If you have cheated to win a title, it is only right and just that the prize should be returned,so Mr McCoist if your club is found guilty of cheating to win titles, be a gentleman and return them don’t wait on your titles being stripped.

I think there is a degree of unreasonableness in questioning why there has been no national media attention around the utterances of a 3rd Division / Junior League manager.

Mr McCoist believes that he can say and do what he wants he will not be touched, take for instance the spat With Mr Lennon although he (Mr Mc Coist) was the instigator in all of that Mr Lennon came off with a ban, Mr McCoist did not. He has a duty to conduct his self in a fit and proper manner if he is representing a club, I noticed in the pass that Mr Lennon was lambasted for speaking out the way he did whilst being passionate about his club, called in front of the SFA panel on more one occasion . Two wrongs don’t make a right, will Mr McCoist receive a touchline ban, naming a panel at his behest and now abusing the SFA board
Ally McCoist quote in response of SFA fast track panel:
“It seems to me there are rules for some and rules for others,” the Rangers boss claimed.
“There is a complete lack of continuity and consistency.”
Hypocrisy seems the norm’ when speaking with forked tongue.
July 25, 2012 at 10:56 am

So Ally storms out of a meeting stating that he will never allow titles to be stripped, and because of this, and only this, some idiot decides to threaten an SFA exec’s family. I’m struggling to see why McCoist is the single catalyst for this action. Are you saying that his words are the only reason for these threats? It’s been all over the media and forums about titles being potentially stripped, yet it’s only McCoist’s words that triggered this? What am I missing here? There’s not enough detail in this post to show that there’s a link, so go on, elaborate some more.
Your quest is surely well past the stated interest of Sporting Integrity now? It’s looking more like an obsession. In my (and most) professions, when you do a good job (grudgingly admitted..), you move on. Time to admit that you simply hate Rangers and everything they stand for and even when this has all played out, you still will regardless of whether they prove to be whiter than white in the future.

The latest outpouring from the cheeky chappie left me spitting mad, too say the least. To learn from your good self that it has again brought endangerment and upset to the lives of others abhors me.
There was a time when I was ALMOST swayed by the ‘doesn’t like to mention it, does a lot of work for chaaa rity’ cuddly media persona. “He’s a nice enough lad but got in with the wrong crowd.”
No.
These outbursts are nasty and dangerous.
Can’t work out if he is setting up for walking away, or a puppet unwittingly scuppering any chance of the newco ever taking to the field of play. If it is the later then all the investors will be rescuing from the whole sorry affair would be a venue.

Ally McCoist has every right to be annoyed at the sanctions being dished out, they are a new company, nothing to do with the old regime, but are still told they are not allowed to sign players for a year, totally crazy.
If this was Neil Lennon or any other manager , they would be standing up for their clubs, sorry Phil in your article you are having a go at a manager trying to do his job and looking after the best interests of his club. You are portraying yourself as a bigot in this article Phil, which im sure you’re not, but this is the way its coming across. It was always good to see Ally and Tommy doing their bit for the SCIAF charity, something that will never be forgotten.

Yes he has a right to be annoyed, but he is totally wrong in the way he goes about it. He has a duty to act responsibly, especially with the past actions of his own support, who really do not need much provocation(and there is proof to back that up). Sally should keep to the football side of things instead of putting all his energy into rebel rousing. Regards to oldco punishment, Newco were shoehorned by piggybacking onto the oldco license, so they inherited the oldco football punishment and debt. Simple. We shouldn’t forget about all the other companies who lost out to the oldco’s liquidation process where there were job losses and companies going out of business. Another fact. Also, if the oldco are found to be guilty of paying duel contracts, they should be stripped of the titles they won illegally. I personally don’t want Celtic to get them, the titles should just show no winner. Because there are no winners due to the oldco cheating and win at all cost attitude.

What is it to be Ralf, a new club with the same name and claiming the complete history of the old one and all it entails? You know, all the titles and trophies AND the responsibility of accepting the cheating that went on? Or is it to be a new club with no connection to the old save the name?
They cannot pick and choose what they go forward with. What the old club did was far too serious for that.

I have from the day they went into administration seen Rangers in the same light as our dear old friend the dodo, as have many on this site.
There are many posters from both sides of the debate who have said the new club should not receive sanctions, for different reasons I may add, but essentially to show the emergence of a new club.
The fact of the matter is, they are a brand new club, with no history; however, as far as I am aware their application for membership of the SFA is through the transfer of the membership from Rangers (1872-2012). Hence the leapfrog of Spartans etc straight into the SFL (well that and the fact there are many within our powers that be who would do anything to help ‘re peepul’). If this new club wish to use the tarnished membership then they must take the punishments that come attached to that membership, otherwise get in the queue behind Spartans, no?

I will try to moderate myself today. Mr McCoist has a responsibility as a subject of the Crown to keep the Queen’s peace (that is not her sandwiches for her lunch, by the way). He has been, right from the start of his career, at the centre of many incidents seen by us sectarian in nature, but overlooked by his apologists. He knows how the stauncher section of the supporters of the team with no-name will react, he should be trying to keep a lid on the situation. There are people that listen to him, who are willing to post bombs, bullets and threaten violence aimed at some people and their families. The strain he is under is caused at least in half by his inability to keep his opinions at a level of decency and decorum that does not supply those only too willing to mete out ‘justice’ to anyone who has slighted his ex team or the team he is running now.
If things were reversed, as they have been in the past, would Mr McCoist be saying “oh Celtic have been punished enough”. I think not.
This man is not capable enough or reliable enough for the job he has taken on. He should make up his mind, is he the manager of a club that has fallen on hard times and must get on with the job with all it’s hurdles. Or is he the sporting mouthpiece of a religious sect ( that is where we get the word sectarian), whose powers have been waining for many a moon now.
You can only judge a person by their actions and the justification they give for their actions, Ally McCoist is just too small minded for the job he has taken on.
Will Ms Lynch or Mr Walker have much to say if someone is hurt after this or any other unthought out statement by Ally McCoist. All this in a week where there was a firearms court case about the incident at Lennoxtown.
McCoist has a responsibility to the whole of the country not just his fitba team and mates.
I wonder what his reaction would be if he had been subjected to the same pressures as Neil Lennon has had to face over the past couple years. Gonnae gies a brek frae the puir wee Ally keech.

They are really excelling themselves now. It’s the throw all cautions to the wind time. When they managed to get the gun licence back for thomas hamilton to carry out his massacre of children they managed to ensure that the truth be kept hush hush for the next 100 years but with their “only- reason-for-living” team dropping dead like a stone they have got their wee aprons in a twist. They don’t even seem to be able or willing to hide their blatant bigotry and underhand tactics. I’ll bet there is some smell coming from underneath their thumb nails now with all the prodding they will be doing with their brethren in front of them in the ludge queue.

Not good Phil. Whether you respect him or not, he’s defending his club as many on the Celtic side would do in similar circumstances. A former close friend of McCoists would be appalled by your blog – Tommy Burns.
As time goes by your blogs read more and more like Mein Kampf…. “Propaganda must not investigate the truth objectively and, in so far as it is favourable to the other side, present it according to the theoretical rules of justice; yet it must present only that aspect of the truth which is favourable to its own side”
You are fast becoming what you claim to oppose!

alan_a – mccoist and burns may have been friends, they may have loved their clubs, but they are extraordinarily different characters. “Burns was a family man, a devoted husband & father, a man of faith, integrity and courage, universally loved” Ally, er, isn’t.
Generally I would caution attributing your perception of how someone would act to those who are are no longer around to disprove it. McCoist has proven himself worthy of the “sleekit Ally” moniker – he’s a smart guy, the most experienced media “personality” to have managed a team in Scottish history, yet he keeps making these comments in the media that goad the more easily influenced Rangers fans into at best, anti-social nehaviour, at worst criminal behaviour.
BTW, personally I think Bill Struth would have been appalled at the actions of Rangers as a club and their fans as group over the past 20 years. He would have shuddered at the wholesale cheating, the breaking of the spirit and letter of the rules relating to football, the wholesale rampage by Rangers fans. But not as appalled as he would have been by the signing of Mo Johnstone.

There’s a perverse irony when you accuse people of subscribing to Mein Kampf.

I will again mention the MSM as they have added to and prolonged this saga when they could have printed the truth. That is what we are up against in this Country. The Oldco and Newco are shrouded in secrecy, double dealings and lies but there are no probing questions coming from our so called sports writers. Celtic really should look for a way out. There is no impartiality at all.

Nicole, no substance, or story? Phil has given three examples of McCoist’s sly behaviour, two of which ended with SFA representatives, and their families, being threatened by lowlife scum.
If that doesn’t meet your criteria of a story, I would be very interested to see one that does.
If their cheating club didn’t want the dual contracts affair to be investigated, then they shouldn’t have issued them in the first place. Why are they trying to prevent an investigation if they have nothing to hide? It looks like an admission of guilt to me, though I concede I might be slightly less than totally impartial.
Sadly, instead of showing some semblance of the dignity they are always going on about, it seems bullying, and intimidation, are the Rangers/Sevco Scotland way.

A few years ago I would often call McCoist “the acceptable face of Rangers”. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy, was funny and was a pal of Tommy Burns which was good enough for me. He even did work for the Scottish Catholic International Aid Fund which I always thought was a nice touch for a Rangers legend.
However, his conduct over the last year or two has been nothing short of disgraceful. His intimidation tactics over the 3 panel members was one of the worst things I have ever seen in Scottish football. Had Neil Lennon tried to incite a lynch mob in the same way he would have been subject to a Police investigation. Of that I have no doubt.
And you’ll remember the famous Old Firm game where he made the sly comment to Lennon at the end, a clip that has been played a million times on TV. The one bit you never see, ever, is him charging at Lennon in the first half and having to be held back by Walter Smith, his face twisted in anger. I don’t think I’ve seen that clip since the match itself. Lennon’s anger gets played all the time.
Strange that, isn’t it…

I dislike ‘Rangers’ with a passion (and I’m English, with a season ticket for an English club) but I think you’re being a little too harsh on McCoist. OK, he’s not perhaps the ‘cheeky chappie’ that many (CFC fans included) thought he once was but it’s clear to see that the situation at Ibrox is causing him immense psychological strain and his outbursts evidence this. I’m still prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt with this caveat – get out now.

I don’t understand why there is any discussion with Newco (Servco) over the illegal acts of the deceased RFC.
RFC is dead and their illegal practises and punishment are nothing to do with Newco(Servco.
If there is proof of dual contracts and the deceased RFC are found guilty then it is simply a matter of applying the rules.
No need for discussion with Newco(Servco)or any other organisation.
For the record, I don’t think any transfer ban should have been given to Newco (Servco)they are a completely new company starting up in the 3rd division and have done nothing wrong.

I’m all for freedom of speech. It is a fundamental right.
However that right must be tempered with responibility.
Ally understands this. Yet he continues to appeal to the lunatic element of Sevco support.
I have no idea what was said during his latest outburst but his ‘we demand to know’ (when he already did)was pretty close to the mark for incitement and may well have been a matter for police authorities.
Ally isnt concerned with justice, with fairness, integrity or balance. He wants to be a god to the moronic hoardes.

A timely return Phil. Wonder what people like Willie Waddell, or Bill Struth would have made of McCoist’s almost McCarthy-esque bluster and bilge.
And it wasn’t that long ago that we were given the impression that the Rangers hierarchy felt Big Eck had just a little too much of the ‘common touch’(!) – and I bet McLeish would have had no problem winning SFL3 with the current personnel.
To be fair about coverage of the disgraceful threats to SFA people’s families, I wouldn’t be surprised if the victims themselves wanted to keep it quiet, as it may only encourage more of McCoist’s sub-human followers.
I hear you’re writing a book about the whole debacle – reckon you’ll need to do it in several instalments over the next few years, what with expected court cases and so forth.
Can’t wait for Vol 1 though.

Phil, speaking about threats, remember back when our manager was being threatened on a weekly basis and the police enforced a news blackout, right up until the post office make public the letter bombs.
Did the police ever catch anyone for the threats prior to the letter bombs, or did they drop all investigations to pursue the letter bombers.
The fact that the police had to move the manager and his family to safe houses during this time, means sufficient evidence was available to take the threats seriously, a terririst code word or some such trigger.
Are these terrorist threats still being investigated or are they satisfied the two culprits done for assault with a bomb, being blamed for all the threats.

if you can drum up support like he can why cant the Celtic board not come out, as they are the only voice we have with any clout, and say it as it is. the RANGERS have never lost there voice and always had there voice be heard they did put Airdrie out the game, and they never felt uneasy with it. Celtic should come out of hiding, and say if you cheated us out of trophies we want them back simple no ifs or buts about it.
this has gone on long enough. Christians might turn the other cheek, but there is no need for the Celtic board too.
we have a right to them trophies and should be demanding that they return to there rightful place. surly we are not that bird mouthed, our voice must be heard and to feck with any one that’s says anything different

I agree that he is positioning himself to walk away. His problem is that he now believes that he is the chosen one to lead the masses through these dark times. He has forgotten that he is also an abject failure as a manager. He and his followers appear to have dismissed his failure to even compete for any trophy last season in any meaningful way. Now he issues threats on behalf of the club, but at the same time contradicting the chairman and owner, who seem to be taking a more pragmatic approach. It looks as if he either wants to be sacked, or to walk away on principle. Cheeky chappy may be his media persona, but arrogant and ignorant are more appropriate descriptions.

I believe, in all honesty if this had been NL then the MSM would have hung, drawn & quartered him.

Aye, very good. It’s not kicking Sally. Just pointing out that the real Sally is starting to show his true colours and flaws, which we were all told he had none.

The substance in the article Nicole is that cheeky chappy’s outburst lead to more threats. The man is becoming a public menace.

Would like to see him hang on in there, if I’m honest. So the world will waken up to his true coaching/management abilities and see that the Ibrox meltdown last season conveniently hid his blushes. 1 cup win in umpteen attempts and a 19 point swing in the Championship pre Administration showed he didn’t take much in when studying at the feet of The Cardigan.
Can’t wait to see the hordes turn against him when they are struggling in Berwick, Annan, Elgin etc.

How can you define McCoist as some ambassador of morality?? RFC are widely percieved as the most bigoted club in the world. There’s a contradiction in there somewhere. If you run with it, you’re part of it. It’s a bit like subscribing to the BNP. You simply condone racism and intolerance by your involvement. I pity you.

Oh Masonwalker( real name hidden for the obvious reasons ), you really do sum up the attitude of your kind. You just can’t see anything wrong with what Sally has said or done for the last 6 month. Not even talking of being a disaster as a football manager. The guy is a loose cannon and should have been taken to task for his comments and actions, but they won’t as Mr Regan said there would be social unrest. Should he be punished for his sins. If it was Neil Lennon it would be an entirely different story. Just have to look at the spat after THAT game where Neil was left without a name and Super Sally got off Scot free when it was shown that Sally provoked the incident by whispering into our Neils ear. Where was the justice then so called masonwalker.

Go on, admit it MasonWalker, you’re just a daft troll, aren’t you?
On the other hand, if you’re not then I hope you actually put that wee love note in the post to him. Don’t forget to add the kisses.

It’s nothing to worry about. I’ve had more than a few posts not make it onto the site. It is Phil’s site and he can moderate it as he sees fit.
