…the referee saga continues. It goes on and on like a merry go round where the controlling gypsy has lost the function to press the stop button and the kids on the ride are passing out due to mass hysteric motion sickness.
This act of professionalism, where fully grown men are literally saying “Hes callin’ us names, Im not playing with him” in lehman’s terms, thus results in a possible strike that to me seems like a forlorn way of saying “We are crap, we have recognised that and we know it but now we need to throw our whistles out of the Hugh Dallas pram and until you say nice things about us we are digging our feet in and not refereeing” they would possibly also add “You’re not using our ball either, we’re taking that home as well”.
If this is the case every time my old boss at my old office was being a total tit headed tool I would have been on a 365 day strike just for the fact he was always being a prize sh!t head, it was like he was constantly practising for the ‘best sh!thead in the world tournament’ just in case it ever came around.
With the above in mind I must ring my old boss to see if he can referee any SPL matches this weekend, because they will be a smorgasbord short of sh!theads this weekend to referee matches. Well he doesn’t understand the offside rule, nor does he accept the proper usage of cards (I got a belated ‘my sincere condolences’ card for my birthday one year from him) so he should be an ideal candidate for the mix-pot of refereeing ‘nice but dims’ already in place.
Alleged discussions are underway at the moment between the SFA and the referees. The only major news to come out surrounding the referee strike fiasco is the fact no breadcrumb or microwave meal experts will be present to cover any matches this coming weekend.
According to BBC football:-
“Iceland’s referees have told the Scottish Football Association they will not officiate at weekend games in place of striking Scots whistlers.” http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/9216271.stm
This is of great news to Coleen Nolan and Jason Donovan who overheard the early rumours and looked forward to possibilities of officiating the big tie between Hamilton and St Mirren. Coleen retorted that she “…was glad that go ahead was not given” as she was “…applying vagisil to the other loose women at the weekend anyways and to officiate a football match would just be a burden to all our mouldy hovels.”
Donovan meanwhile declined to comment as he was busy opening a lidl in Thurso (Which is such a mass major event that far up the top of Scotland that I have heard the excitement is almost on a par with the fact that aliens are landing or even the postman is coming).
With the fact that all Scotland’s referees seem to be abysmal the future of Scottish refereeing does not look good on the outlook. In personal delight of the news that Scotland may get ride of its chaff and replace them for possibly at least a weekend of top level fixtures I have managed to get hold of what could be a vital future vision of Scotland’s top graded referees –
The above is a great possibility seeing that most top grade referees in Scotland are a total embarrassment, the above happening would do no damage at all to their now ‘continent wide’ terrible reputation.
In other news Walter Smith, or as he is now known the post-steroidal shrunken water crinkled face testicle, has said “We will be attack minded against Man united”. This was bolstered even more by the evidence that Rangers coaching team and staff have been seen carrying mass amounts of Rohypnol and flick knives onto the team bus. I heard to get the edge in training they all practised on Vladimir Weiss, well you better get the sudocrem out Vlad that’s all I can say to that.
Its that time to turn in and switch the keyboard to face you chaps for your gracious views :-
- Where do we go from here lads with this referee fiasco?
- Will we face ICT this weekend?
- If Iceland can turn us down what should the SFA do next? (Just a warning turning to ASDA, Aldi or Tescos is not a reputable answer either folks ;-D)
- Do we need to carry on with two faced bent referees? Or should we just get a set of elderly grandmothers with no link to football to press buttons in a who wants to be a millionaire ask the audience style to sort out major issues.
- …and the bonus teaser question we all want the answer to should Walties squad use the JLS new brand of man hats in his attack on Man United?
Kerry Katona is willing to revisit her Iceland gig as long as she gets the Airdrie game I’m hearing.
Chico reported the puffin worriers knock back with such glee I thought he was sucking on Walters post steroidal shrunken water faced testical.
Fuck knows what will happen but I hope it involves P45 and a load of refs being bussed in like the miners strike in 84.
Great blog.
Two great blogs Lotw and Sean. The strike is a very timely smokescreen. How conveniently the Dallas email story has been swept under the carpet, eh ?
Regarding the BBC, Lotw, their website is just as bad as the red tops these days. There is no attempt to look at the facts, it’s just bland shock-opinion journalism. You sometimes hear “well, we have to pay the bills like everyone else”, which is just the worst qualifier for poor journalism. If you have to pay the bills then do the research, find the facts and report/critique that !
There is no turning back for us now. Anyone who has failed to take appropriate action or that has contributed to a lie should be hammered for it. They’ve brought the game into disrepute, not us. I hope the club stands firm. The club will always have scorn and criticism poured upon it, no matter what we do. We may as well be criticized whilst doing the right thing.
Celtic are allowing these cretins to peddle the agenda, today’s Daily Retard is the perfect example. The use of the word scab is outdated and inflammatory. Plus I notice more are bringing in a sectarian line when talking about thus issue.
So wrong and dangerous.
The Daily Retard gets worse. Im not sure if it can get any worse than it is now.
The Celtic contingent in lancashire refer to it as the Daily Ranger, I prefer Daily Dickslap as I have found when I have read this paper in the past I reckon a hit in the chops with the word ‘read this’ in permanent marker marked on a penis would be more a thrilling read.
It is awful a paper can get away with so much bullshit and internet spin as stories.
They still a couple of hundred thousand copies a day. Makes you despair.
