Notice, with a post like Springburn's, that there's never any attempt to address the person's record who's being criticised (which is this case is an appalling one even by the standards of the 'PR' industry), but always an attempt to divert attention and make unfounded, and unprovable, allegations about the poster. Very similar to the tactics of Conservative Central Office ... oh, that's right I almost forgot ... that's who she'll be working for right now, alongside Boris helping to maintain England's rule in Scotland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jag Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Of all the ridiculous threads I have seen on this forum, this has to be right up there. People really need to get a life, rather than throwing around accusations of discriminatory behaviour, when there is absolutely none. Pathetic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyMac Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) You can't please everyone can you? and nothing lasts forever. Nevertheless, let's put it this way; Nicola Sturgeon - SNP - widely supported and respected by her own. Ruth Davidson - Conservative - widely supported and respected by her own. Kezia Dugdale - Labour - not widely respected or supported by her own. Was Kezia Dugdale's leadership held in poor regard by Labour people because she is a women, or was it because she was a total calamity in the job and unable to provide what her own people wanted? All this Tories have no place a Firhill stuff, is (IMO) nothing more than bigotry. I couldn't care less that JLow was a woman, or that she was a Tory. It was her inability to do the job that bothered me. Jlow couldn't run a bath, never mind run a football club.

Its not as if you own the Club ( even with 55% you dont Own it ) Its not as if you can attend Board Meetings - or have a say in any aspect of the Club on any level Its not as if you can in any shape or form influence decisions outwith the AGM Its not as if you get to meet the Manager or discuss anything to do with the Team Your a Shareholder - and in the case of Jlo - a Director of a Company who is a Shareholder - which is one stepped removed from an actual Shareholder So this argument over misogyny is a mute point TFE made a very clear statement that Jlo wouldn't be involved with the Club if people supported them ( there public statement -not mine ) The briefing given to the Evening Times was very clear- she had no Official Capacity at the Club- and for clarity only those with Official Capacity can be involved in the aforementioned actions - and our Board of Directors run the Club - they make all decisions- and have Corporate Governance Responsibilities As one of the New Board from TFE is a Lawyer - he will obviously know that - and as Ian Dodds has been a Club Director for a Number of years - he will also know that So its a thread over nothing to be honest ...
