In a less enlightened and creative place, that's where...
Two emails blogged out about Dr Death versus The Hun...
The End Of Dallas #1
It gets better with each passing hour.
Paul Brennan at Celtic Quick News has been sitting on this one for a few days and has obviously been given the green light by Reid to go public with it now.
Reid, apparently, has proof that Dallas has been in the habit of doctoring the Referee Observer's match report.
The bold Shug can order "amendments" to the original report so that he can mark up officials who have given "strong" decisions against Celtic or alternatively downgrade their scores if the Hoops have been given the benefit of too many decisions.
The reverse process applies to the Huns.
Natch.
A couple of weeks ago there was a private meeting between Stewart Regan (the new SFA chief executive) and Reid and Lawwell after which the Celtic board effectively called for the Hoops faithful to place their confidence in Regan in his battle to sort out the SFA.
Personally, I suspect that Regan himself is the source of the leaks that are appearing in various trusted Celtic websites and forums.
e.g. the Dallas email, these dodgy dossiers of match reports and even an eye-witness account of the confrontation between Regan and Dallas (as reported in Phil's blog.)
The Match Report documents, if Reid really has them, will bring the entire edifice crashing down. And even if he doesn't have them, he can still call the bluff of Dallas, George Peat and the whole, rotten, hopelessly compromised SFA gang.
It's thought that Graham Speirs, (who plays the mythical "Good Hun" in Scottish journalistic fable) also has certain knowledge of some of these documents - perhaps a test organised by Reid? - but is being prevented from publishing them by m'learned friends.
Scottish mainstream media has gone right off the chart in its biased and hysterical coverage of DallasGate. There has been at least one "top" referee or ex-ref on every BBC Radio Scotland discussion programme that I've heard this week. Last night we even had the unedifying sound of John McKendrick (the 4th official at the Dundee Utd-Celtic game that started the ball rolling) trying to convince the head of the Israeli refereeing department to break the agreement that they had just made to send over some spare officials to cover the Scottish fixtures. Live on air!
A new low point in the history of the BBC.
No surprise to learn today that three teams of Polish officials had suddenly pulled out.
I suspect that BBC London has been inundated with protests.
On the Tic websites, I've seen dozens of posts from Hoops members, reproducing their letters of complaint.
Few Celtic supporters are daft enough to waste time complaining to BBC Scotland; all the objections are calling upon London to straighten out its rogue fiefdom.
The chief broadcasting villains on the Beeb have been the loathsome "St. Mirren supporter" Chick Young, boorish thug James Traynor and the execrable Kenny McIntyre. Dishonourable mentions in the rags go to Bill Leckie, Tom Ireland, Roger Baillie and Keith "Union" Jackson.
Sad, sad, bigots, the lot of them.
But they are still utterly fucked. They are the Scottish football equivalent of Hitler rolling on the floor of the Berlin bunker while foaming at the mouth.
Dead huns walking.
And shouting defiantly.
"The cry was 'No Surrender'..."
Not yet openly published is the next stage in the final redemption of the Tribe of Tim-Paranoia.
############ Q.C. is thought to be drawing up the paperwork, even as we speak, to launch the first of many actions against the Foe Malign.
####### is not only a top brief but also a dyed-in-the-wool Tim.
I have a very strong feeling that the various football teams of the Scottish Prison Service may soon be spoilt for choice when it comes to looking for experienced referees to take charge of their kick-abouts.
The buzz amongst the Celtic support is huge now.
Dr Death is still a bastard but, right now, he's OUR bastard.
Our very own vicious, dirty, Fenian bastard up against every dirty, cheating, Orange bastard in the Scottish football establishment.
There can only be one winner here.
Even those who detest the man are pretty unanimous that if there's one guy you'd like to nominate to keep a firm, terrier-like grip of your enemies' gonads, it would be the Baron Cardowan.
Prior to the AGM, the word was that he was ready to step down from the chair, making way for Ian Bankier.
When Assistant Referee Stephen Craven resigned, prompting DougieDougieGate, Reid instantly smelt blood.
He basically said, "Everybody oot o' my road! This is MY gig!"
And even I can't deny that he's handled it perfectly so far.
"I'd rather he was inside the tent, pissing out, than outside the tent, pissing in," as LBJ said.
Hail, Hail!
The End Of Dallas #2
It's strangely quiet on the official news front today. Yesterday, Regan had the disciplinary hearings for the email transgressors, finishing with Dallas. There were seven or eight others who forwarded the email from SFA addresses. I'm hearing that all of them were fired. No certain confirmation; it just came from a friend whose friend works at Hampden and that's what he'd been told.
That's quite significant, given that the thinking in advance of the hearings was that if so much as one of the underlings was binned, Dallas was a certainty for the sack. It's possible that he has indeed been told to go away and come back a few days later with his resignation. It's an odd way to do it though.
McDonald looks as if he's dodging justice for the moment. Having already been dealt with by the referee's committee for his lies, it is being said that there is no way to go back on that decision under the SFA's rules and regulations. That's very awkward for Regan. He had already recommended a sacking in the first instance but the ref's panel ignored him. In the second instance, McDonald's dismissal was the first issue that Reid chose to go on the offensive about (after the "private pact" with Regan and Lawwell) and I imagine the Celtic board expected Regan to deliver. There are no signs though that Celtic have lost any confidence in Regan - if anything, the relationship has probably become stronger as Regan continues to discover for himself that the SFA is just as twisted and corrupt as the Celtic directors would have undoubtedly told him.
Significantly though, Celtic's first preference was not for reform of the SFA and its refereeing department but rather for a totally independent inquiry. I have a suspicion that Celtic, with the benefit of decades of frustrating experience, allowed Regan to try it his way first from the inside. But Celtic always expected that the beast can only be slain from the outside and have mostly been accumulating the evidence for ####### to put together.
