I’m afraid Senhor Pedro Miguel Faria Caixinha wasn’t a happy fellow today.
It would appear that he now wants to urgently dispose of the services of three Quintessentially British players in his squad.
Anyone playing Sevco in the upcoming weeks will be facing a divided team with a broken spirit.
Off the field, it is even worse.
I’m hearing that last night the Sevco High Command met in dignified conclave.
The year-end accounts were an important item on the agenda.
It would appear that Mr King didn’t give a lot of notice to his colleagues that he was attending the semi-final.
Some around the table thought that the chairman would announce that he was stepping down there and then.
However, as of last night, he appeared to be of a mind to tough it out.
Some of his colleagues wanted to re-focus his mind on the impending shitstorm from the Take Over Panel case, but Dave remained Churchillian throughout.
Developing shambles…

A perfect storm is on its way and all hands are required to bail the club out.
Will they all be lining up to sign the blank cheques that the auditors require before they will contemplate signing off on the accounts?
If not admin 2 may not be far away which leads us onto the newco/oldco debate and the 10 or 20 points deduction.
Oh to be a fly on the wall when Regan and Doncaster sort that one out.
54 titles won in their 5 year existence, quite amazing.
Almost £100m of debt left behind with Oldco, nothing to do with Newco, still the same club mind you.
My money’s on the 10 point deduction as that will do least harm to Newco and keep them in the hunt for European football next season, no matter that their losses drive a coach and horse through UEFA FFP rules, as if.
its all happening now matter of time he will go because the funds not there probably lost more money out of it now because of the league cup exit and the cash we gave them cos of our European success where did that go to all can say its coming to a end slowly ands its sevco cheerio jere we go to 10 in a row

I see no headline quotes in the SMSM from Regan and Doncaster congratualting Celtic on a GLOBAL award.
There is also nothing on the SFA and SPFL websites.
The SPFL site even has a dedicated News => Fans page – but nothing to see there.
R & D can’t bring themselves to talk up Scottish football because the brighest thing in Scottish football is Celtic.
So they prefer to stay silent, incompetent, impotent and corrupt.
Only in Scotland !
Why are the guys who have kept the lights on at Bigotdome frightened to speak out? King continues to piss on them with embarrassing court cases and empty promises. Similar to the fear from the board of the days of SDM. Maybe that’s who King learned from. Can’t see our board putting up with a chairman who behaved like this. Thankfully this couldn’t happen the way our club operates. Maybe one advantage of being a PLC.
Football Economics for Dummies.
PSG and Bayern Munich beat Celtic comfortably because they both have much more money than Celtic which allows them to employ better players.
Celtic beat “Rangers” comfortably because they have more money than “Rangers” and employ better players.
The problem for “Rangers” is how to close this financial gap without the assistance of a far too friendly Bank, and with the pesky taxman now demanding a slice if their action. However the problem may not be as difficult as it looks. Given their well known worldwide support of 50,000,000 fans it would only require a modest donation of 1£ each and, hey presto, they are back in the game. A special account could be set up to in their name, lets call it the Fans United Donations Scheme, to harbour these donations, which of course must be located somewhere offshore for ” tax efficiency” reasons. Somewhere like South Africa perhaps. After all bears you do still fully trust in Mr David Cunningham King . . . . . . . . . . .dont you?
Yeh F.U.D.S for short he he
Shambles on and off the field, Bite the the and change team name to submariners play in yellow adopt yellow submarine as team song Tom Daly does less diving. Digger
Should read bite the bullet sorry

Gash is too good a word to use to describe Mr Bruno.
“churchillian” is horrific patter.
I would love to be a fly on the wall when they do discuss the takeover fiasco.
I’m sorry Mr King but the board have decided we want you to step down.
Step Down?
Yes, we believe that would be the best thing for the club moving forward.
Sure No problem I was actually thinking about this myself. I just need to sell back my shears at a small profit for all the work and bad press I have had since I came here. Oh and I believe there is a few loans that need to be repaid in full straight away. So let’s talk business….
Actually Mr King, thinking about it we love having you on board and this club needs you right now.
Ah thank you, Yes, yes I think that’s best.
Em, But what are you going to do about the takeover review?
Oh now now my dear brothers what are We ALL going to do about it.
Let’s put all ours heads and your cash together and beat this thing…
Warburton, never laid a glove on Celtic last season. If Pedro had got lucky(unlikely) and beaten us at Ibrox we would be on the same points as them. The wee yellow bellies of the SMSM are closing in on him, another easy touch foreign manager they can practice being brave journalists with. They did it with Delia, Vogts, Le Guen, Venglos. Never called out “Walter” and took an eternity to question McCoist. Pedro is a decent man and probably a good manager. Any manger is going to struggle with the Celtic juggernaut. All makes for good viewing, however the the stench of bullying from the media and ex player’s is all very sad and predictable. Well done Motherwell and Great to hear their manager emphasing pre match that the were a “properly run club”. I am sure that was a well versed statement.
Shambles is one if my favourite words.
As is shambolic.
Shambolicity – that could well be up there with Espaniolification.
Developing shambles – priceless.
Disestablishmentarianism is one of my favourite words
Quite apt under the circumstances me thinks….!!!
Oh how I enjoy good news regarding Sevco’s impecuniosity and their continuing fall into shambolicity ( not sure about that word but you know what I mean). The Inferno beckons.
“Developing Shambles…” Excellent.
Tribute act set to announce tour of small venues:
Impecuniosity Killed The Cat
Or was it The Bears..
“Misfit, misfit..”
Some around the table ‘HOPED’ he’d step down,maybe I’m just too negative for this developing schadenfreudian shambles.
Dave will hold on until there is truly no hope,I’m quite sure on that.
Thanks Phil.?
The board still expecting King to do the decent thing for the greater good of the club and the RRM – the very definition of hope over experience.
“Developing shambles.”
Up there with your best.
Alves, the new Captain Unbookable, “reveals he’s trying to tempt Portugal team mate Pepe to join him.”
I laughed at that revelation but it’s all beginning to make sense now.
Get Ronaldo in as well. The Qatari mob will sort out the financial stuff.
It’s not possible that the Celtic sharp-suited men (or Stuey for that matter) don’t know about these lastest durty deeds down Govan way.
But will anything be done about it sixtaeseven…??
They’ve been getting away with durty deeds for more years than I care to remember.

Not a case of joining him, perhaps replacing him would be more apt.
Not sure what Bruno’s strengths were that brought him so many international caps.
Perhaps its the quality of those around him dragging him down but he looks gash.
Pepe Le Pew would be a good fit.
