SCOTTISH
RUGBY followers, instead of
wasting your time standing outside and applauding our wonderful
National Health Service and care sector workers of a Thursday evening
– when this is over, de Piffle and the Toerags will still starve
them of resources and under-pay them, it's what Toerags do- your
applause will not make one iota of difference.
Instead,
everyone with the good of Scottish Rugby at heart MUST
read the current
“splash” on the wonderful The
Offside Line. Then,
stand up and give the biggest standing ovation we can to the author,
big David Barnes.
David Barnes - a brilliant piece of investigative journalism
Because,
in researching and writing the piece, big Barney has finally found
the smoking gun we have all been looking for as far as the moger
which has been Scottish Rugby governance.
Here is the link to Barney's story:
I
had never heard of the Decision-Making
Matrix before, up
until Barney put this thread up yesterday, D-MM
was a bigger and
deeper state secret than what actually went on between Gregor
Townsend and Finn Russell. But, now D-MM
is out in the open,
all I can say is: “Wow!
Jings, crivvens, help ma Boab.”
The
existence of D-MM
explains a lot, and,
if enough people read Barney's “smoking
gun expose” rather
than being outside clapping for the nurses, we will be lined-up on
Roseburn Drive, chanting: “Cheerio,
cheerio, cheerio,”
as a taxi contining TCD
and The
Consigliore departs.
That's
the best that should happen to these two desperados, if it was up to
me their departure would involve a tar barrell, a huge pile of
feathers and a length of railroad steel.
And,
while we are at it, one or two of “The
great and good” of
Scottish Rugby ought to have their priveleges removed and be telt:
“Never darken
Murrayfield's door again,” for
they are the people who allowed this clusterfuck to happen and the
poison to spread.
Please,
I encourage you all – read Barney's excellent piece, then, don't
get mad, quiet simmering anger will do, but, get even and make sure, we
get rid of the bad guys on The Junta and reform Scottish Rugby, ready
for the serious challenges of rebuilding the sport once the current
pandemic is beaten.
This
is, of necessity, a very short blog; because I cannot trust myself to
write more, I am so angry at learning what Barney has unearthed.
Read
the story yourselves, I am sure you will be as angry as I am.

ReplyDeleteYes indeed, AA. Justfiable anger!
ReplyDeleteCan we take this as writing on the wall for the dastardly Howat? Shall we call his taxi now, or later? What a dastard...
What now also of the feckless, hapless, nearly time-served properly-puppeted token female-figurehead President - and her hopeless legacy of.... absolutely less than nothing? Should she just pack it in without further ado, and go away?
Then, what about the over-fed, overpaid Mancunian carpetbagger and his low-grade discordant boy-band cohorts (aka Dom and The Tossers) - Grassie already on his bike, Thomson the makeweight token additional legal eagle wifie who never lifted a finger of dissention or published her report, and last but not least the chummy/bummy upwardly mobile corporate greaser himself, front-man of that eponymous tuneless support group.....?
The next moves will be fascinating! Management and governance are such fun.
ReplyDeleteAs a life long Scottish rugby player (in 5 countries) and supporter, for 70 years, I am deeply disturbed by these findings regarding the governance of Scottish rugby
However, as a well seasoned, international business excutive, and erstwhile politician,I am well acquainted with cabals, cliques and collusion etc My experience yields one KEY conclusion - you can analyze and criticize all you like BUT, only informed, organized LEADERSHIP can bring about radical change.
Where is that LEADERSHIP today?
