CELTIC AGM 18/11/2010
At the Celtic AGM club chairman John Reid added to the debate by calling for McDonald to be dismissed if he wasn’t prepared to resign.
Thankfully after engineering the weekend strike from referees Dougie Dougie will no longer be denying Celtic penalties or lying to managers ever again.
While it’s been open season at the BBC to rant and rave about anything Lennon related they know that they are dealing with a far more experienced and formidable character in Reid.
Boasting a CV that is untouchable in Scottish football Reid laid out the facts of the case concisely and answered the questions of the media in a matter of fact manner.
Asked about McDonald continuing as a referee Reid responded: “His position is completely untenable. The SFA’s position on this issue is also untenable.
“If the SFA had any sense of their own integrity, they should look at it again.”
During the AGM Reid had told shareholders: “”We’re not asking for special treatment, but neither will we be treated as less than anyone else,” he said. “Those days are gone.”
Looking through their own archives is the current crisis really about ‘one club’ or are is that just wishful thinking from the once impartial BBC?
Perhaps the imminent takeover of the second biggest institution in Scotland isn’t quite running as smoothly as originally suggested?

Joe I think deep down this is about one club and it’s certainly not Celtic.
If the authorities or even the media in Scotland thought they could just carry on with there honest mistakes for evermore well they have a real problem now.
I have never experienced as much propaganda in the press or radio or within the SFA in my life.
Deflect, blame Celtic, blame Reid, blame Lennon, and at the same time praise Smith (wattie).
Great recap. It makes me proud not to have paid my license fee for 5 years.
Spot on Joe.
The footballing parasites will continue to nibble at anything green and the press will contrive to spew their bile at the very mention of the name Lennon but this is the time for Celtic to stand their ground and finally slay the Scottish Goliath with the stone of truth.
Now watch the hordes run for cover, for they know we haven’t brought our smoking gun out of it’s case yet. Watch when we do. Hail Hail.
I e-mail BBC Sportsound just about every week …to complain about their ” Imbalanced ” and ” one sided ” reporting and commentaries .
For years and years I had to listen to a certain David Begg ( so obviously a Rangers fan it wasn’t real)making sly and snidy remarks about Celtic …whilst at the same time ….describing Davis and Lafferty of Rangers as ” Ulster men”….while any other player outwith this club …were Northern Irishmen….small point…but typical of this eejit…..
Now it seems his successor is Liam McLeod….and he’s every bit as bad.
If you’ve NEVER listened to this mob….do me a favour….LISTEN TO THEM A COUPLE OF TIMES…it’ll do your head in……
and before you tell me to switch them off…..
they are, unfortunately, my only means of catching Celtic live……
Sins of a past life I guess !!
LOTW:… 5 Years ??…how the hell???……..
Mike,
Go to ‘bbcresistance.com’ for a few pointers on not paying!
1. For a start, they have no right of entry to your home without your permission.
2. Don’t be daft enough to have the telly audible or in view when the sniffling inspectors come to the door.
3. Do not respond to their mail. If you want to go on the electoral register they will get your details from there. I’m still receiving letters addressed to the previous tenant, an Irishman named Mr O’ccuppier!
4. Be as fly as they are!
5. Do not fear the detector vans. They are empty and cannot ‘detect’ whether each individual home has a TV or not!
Until you are convinced you are getting a fair and balanced viewpoint (and not just on Celtic matters) refuse to give in to the legalised extortionists.
Erm, Hail Hail!
