I agree it did come off the celtic player but the ref never seen it.I honestly have never seen the forth official overturn the ref decision,has it happened in any game this season in the spl.

The ref sent a Wigan player off against Arsenal in the away game on advice from the fourth official.

Good result for the bhoys, feck knows what the papers will make of the jam tarts display. But here we go again, any conspiracy theories doing the rounds already...

Got to say the way neil lennon and his family are getting treated is SHOCKING.I dont care what team you support but when a manger gets serious death threats that should not be tolarated.Its a game of footie guys,and anyone who tinks that this is alright should have a long hard look in the mirror.Dont see this kind of thing happening fergie,wenger or any other manager.

If that is what's happening, it's a disgrace. No room for it in society is there? But I think Celtic and Rangers fans would be better served by acknowledging that there are scumbags supporting both sides, who can't possibly represent the majority opinion of their fellow fans. I don't know how you keep those people away from games, who does?

Now Elf, don't kill me . . . . but as a United fan, I understand the rangers approach the other evening. They had been on the end of a bad beating from Celtic recently. Pride was hurt, Smith would have been like Churchill in the dresing room beforehand. I have seen United do that to Arsenal some years ago, when the Nevilles tried to kill Reyes! But all of this misses the point. Celtic won the game. I think Celtic fans should be happy with that, the referee did what you guys would have wanted, he issued cards.

I dunno . . I ALMOST wish I supported an old firm team to experience the madness

Whether the email is genuine or not,

Quote:

Celtic fans have long suspected a hostile attitude existed at the SFA towards their club. We appear to be at a watershed time with abundant evidence of this hostility. If this email proves accurate, future accusations of �paranoia� will be rebuked by evidence.

is patently untrue and is further evidence of paranoia. The writer assumes that Celtic are the only club to have such emails written about them. To assume that they are is very paranoid.

Is the writer having a giraffe when he links to this?

**elftone1** · #89 11-04-2011, 07:45 PM

Sfa should just deny it then but they are now saying its in the hands of lawyers but as i said time will tell if this is a hoax.

**Begbie** · #90 11-04-2011, 08:22 PM

It doesn't matter if it is real or not. It doesn't mean that there is a bias against Celtic in the SFA. Don't you get my point? For Celtic to believe that they are the only team to be referred to in similar emails is either self-aggrandisement or total paranoia.

I'm sure that if the SFA email archives were opened to the public, every team could point to examples of 'the suits' being against them.

**elftone1** · #91 11-04-2011, 09:07 PM

I see your point about emails that relate to other clubs but i think its the get it right up them that will get some peoples back up.If and i say if this email is true then someone should have been pulled up about it.It is not just that email is about celtic,if it was another club i would still say the same.I dont necessary agree with what the guy says in the link it was just where i found out about it.

**Begbie** · #92 11-04-2011, 09:31 PM

I accept your point but have you never written or forwarded a non-PC email which, if taken out of context (ie your mate knows that you aren't biased), could be used to discredit you if 'spun' in the right or wrong way.

Players' wages aren't really as 'commercially sensitive' as the guy suggests. Other teams who tried to sign the players know what the financial demands were and what their own clubs offered. This makes its way into the public domain on a regular basis, regardless of the team involved.

From what I've read it seems to be more in admiration of Bobo Balde getting a big pay-day than being an anti-Celtic email.

**elftone1** · #93 11-04-2011, 09:36 PM

Get it right up them suggests to me that whoever wrote this not a celtic fan anyway lol.

The bits of email addresses that we can see suggests that it is a Highland conspiracy.

The poster's 'censored' link is a joke. Picking and choosing which recipients' names to show is laughable. No need to show the full email address but no need to be selective about who received the email. Without being 'commercially sensitive', most of the email could have been published, just block out the numbers of Pounds/Euros/Guinean Francs involved.

If the email is real, I have no doubt that other parts of it will be released to the press, drip by drip, with the emphasise on Celtic's perceived grievances without any reference to other club's possible grievances. This will ensure that the Scottish media report it as an anti-Celtic conspiracy.

Shit! Am I getting paranoid now or can I see John Reid's New Labour tactics in play?
