Timposter points out a few uncomfortable home truths, and wonders if we have reached the bottom yet…<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n So here we are………the culmination of years of appeasement to this Celtic PLC Board.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A blind eye to the underhand tactics of those in charge was turned to keep the blue pound of Ibrox live…and look how that worked out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They still treat us with utter disdain.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They claim to be Celtic supporters themselves.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Really????<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Put yourself in their position at the start of this season, on the brink of a historic 10IAR.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You\u2019d have moved heaven and earth to put every resource towards achieving this. From the best manager, coaches, sports science, players.<\/p>\n No expense spared.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What did they do?<\/p>\n They sat on their hands with the usual arrogance and disdain of any criticism.<\/p>\n That alone is unforgivable.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n How did we get here?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is where\u00a0 J’Accuse…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We all sat back and allowed Peter Lawwell to act with maniacal, narcissistic, mendacious control freakery with his policy of the Lion and 2 men and 1 pair of trainers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Where 1 man puts on the trainers and the other man asks him<\/p>\n \u201cwhat god are they?\u201d.<\/p>\n He answered<\/p>\n \u201cAll I need to do is just outrun you and no more\u201d.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Added to this is his love of the Old Firm brand, that which he sees as a saleable asset outside of Scotland, and a minor inconvenience inside.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n However more important is his complicity which resulted in us being compromised and unable to call out the cheating.<\/p>\n He asked a number of influential fans to provide him the smoking gun in Res12.<\/p>\n So we agreed to play their game.<\/p>\n Not only did they do this, they provided the bullets, the fingerprints and the DNA.<\/p>\n He then refused point blank to use it.<\/p>\n At every AGM the Board kicked it into the long grass.<\/p>\n They even lied to shareholders on the 5WA as well as leading shareholders away from the core issue surrounding the granting the licence which was an SFA responsibility not UEFA’s on which he had been well briefed by shareholders from May 2018.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The bottom line is we play in a rigged game where they act with impunity because the cheats know their will be no repercussions because Celtic PLC are compromised.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We lay down with the dogs, and woke up with fleas.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As I have said we have played their corporate game, and still do.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n No matter how many shares we hold, they will always hold more and use them to defeat all our attempts.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We have shown them up as charlatans and liars already, and will no doubt continue to do so.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They simply don\u2019t care. The only language they understand is CASH.<\/p>\n Our cash.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For as long as we willingly hand it over to them they will ignore us.<\/p>\n They get away with this because of the emotional blackmail of \u201cfaithful through and through\u201d where it will hurt the team.<\/p>\n So what does it take for us to act?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We did it before under the leadership of Fergus McCann.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We can do a lot better than this PLC Board.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They are too complacent and comfortable in their malaise.<\/p>\n We could do a lot better commercially.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We could have even more infrastructure investment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We wouldn\u2019t bat an eyelid in handing over our cash for the right investment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If we don\u2019t act now then we can all scream at the Board, however the inconvenient truth is that we have allowed them to act with impunity and disdain.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So the next time we all look in the mirror…….J’Accuse\u2026!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Timposter points out a few uncomfortable home truths, and wonders if we have reached the bottom yet… So here we are………the culmination of…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":16055,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/etims.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/59d44e6f7f00beb8b1c39c529f30de5b.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/s2J7If-jaccuse","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16932"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=16932"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16932\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16933,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16932\/revisions\/16933"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/16055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=16932"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=16932"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etims.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=16932"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
