SectionDJambo Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I think that this could be the, small, beginning of the end for Doncaster. Whether he is "delighted" or thinks he is "vindicated", the cracks of doubt and suspicion of him have been opened up. He will be involved in another dubious affair sooner rather than later. He can't help himself. Whether it be a poor sponsorship deal, when he eventually gets one, or upsetting another club by his scattergun approach to solving issues, as long as Celtic aren't hurt, something will happen that will throw doubts on him again. He has already burned any respect that Hearts and Partick, and some silent others, may have had for him. It's just a matter of time before he shafts other clubs, probably to help Celtic again. Or Lawwell comes to the conclusion that he can't trust him not to dump him in it, and has to move him on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he cannot get a corporate sponsor, he could at least try and find a charity to give them exposure and the league good publicity.

OTT Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Douglas Park (Rangers), Dave Cormack (Aberdeen), Scot Gardiner (ICT), Gary Deans (Falkirk) Jacqui Lowe (Partick) and various others besides Budge have all at one point expressed extreme dissatisfaction either with Doncasters 'leadership', competence or the SPFLs general governance. I think when you want to instigate change its important to offer clarity on why. Now, if the above clubs could get together and form a cohesive plan to ensure his removal that would be to the benefit of Scottish football. They need to put forward a vote of no confidence but also offer an alternative CEO. I've said this before, but the best candidate out there is actually a Scot. Adam Crozier. Clubs need to understand what, who and why they are voting for change I know various posters aren't exactly warm to the idea, but quite honestly, we need a ******* to run Scottish football. We need someone who can do the unpopular to ensure long term success. Crozier has a proven track record turning around failing companies/ organisations. Not only that but he instigated and carried out culture change at the English FA who have only went from strength to strength since. Its not a popularity contest, this is about fixing close to 30 years of mismanagement and neglect. IMO Budge should try to get in a room with Park and Cormack initially and attempt to bring Crozier to the table. If more power needs to be given to the CEO (IMO it should) then factor that in. Put forward the no confidence vote coupled with Croziers appointment and further powers for the CEO to reduce club involvement in governance (and therefore self interest). Bring in the other clubs to offer support and then push forward with the no confidence vote. All of the clubs could be doing 'Riccarton 3' style press conferences where they tear strips out of the odious weasel, question his competence etc. and leave fence sitting clubs clear that this is happening. If the above fails, then a break away league should be threatened and carried out with if necessary. The Premiership is why Sky sponsor Scottish football. A breakaway league would threaten the little money the other clubs get. Provided we get Rangers on board then we would IMO have momentum if Rangers, Hearts and Aberdeen were to work together on a clear plan to ensure Doncasters removal and a change to the governance of Scottish football. These are 3 of Scottish footballs biggest clubs, so this would add credibility and weight to the push for Doncasters removal. The reason I'm including Aberdeen is because Dave Cormack (love him or hate him) isn't stupid. He can see first hand how badly run and undersold Scottish football is. He's a passionate Aberdeen fan that wants to see his club succeed. He cannot do that whilst playing against what amounts to a loaded deck. Nobody wants to waste their money and under the current system he's wasting his money. Aberdeen, Hearts and Hibs could all benefit hugely from a Scottish football run for more than the benefit of one club. Rangers likewise would no doubt benefit from the removal of so many Celtic minded individuals. We're not asking for favouritism, we're asking for impartial competence. If Budge/ Hearts are genuinely wanting to remove Doncaster then they need cross club support and the best way to do that is to get together with both Rangers and Aberdeen to form an initial plan, then bring in others like Partick to grow the volume of disgruntled clubs. Publicly, calling for his head together will make his position untenable regardless of Lawwells support forcing the issue. If the above is to happen, it will be messy and ugly. Doncaster lacks character, spine and dignity. He isn't resigning off his own back. He needs to be removed by majority consent or forced out via a breakaway league with another CEO running the new organisation. Sorry if the above is a bit of a ramble, but there is a way to remove the rat, it just requires clubs working together. Rangers dissatisfaction is known, Cormack could be convinced to jump on board too IMO. Doncaster is not someone the chairmen respect. Its all very doable IMO. Just as above, messy.

The biggest problem currently facing Scottish football is that odious nonce looking rat rubber lipped ****. Once he's gone, then there is real potential for change. Douglas Park doesn't seem a dodgy character like the others (Lawwell, Murray, King etc.). I think he would be open to any move which unseats Doncaster. If we can bring in other clubs and he see's light at the end of the tunnel I think he'll take it. I'm not naive though and do hear what you're saying, the OF want 'their guy' at the top, it doesn't matter if we're talking Rangers or Celtic. If the CEO (I'm saying Crozier) is picked before hand and its brought to him as this is what we've got, back us and we can change Scottish football I think he'll do it. Park has been playing against a loaded deck like the rest of us, I think its that cliche the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Right now, we need Doncaster gone. After that, then we need to have some optimism that the other clubs can be forceful in putting forward a genuinely competent replacement (again Crozier is the man for the job in my eyes). To get something done in Scottish football you need to be practical hence why we need Rangers. In this regard our interests very much align. I mean, what is the alternative? Wait him out?

I agree with this summation. What we need now is a rebel alliance who can block absolutely anything that the SPFL Board want to do through the archaic voting system in place. Gather enough allies and vote down absolutely everything they come up with no matter what until Doncaster realises his time is up and clears off. We need get rid of Lawell and the other Parkhead plants McLennan and McKenzie as well. These people are the cancer at the heart of the game here.

The fact that FOH in their statement suggested any supporters groups or indeed chairmen would be welcome to contact them to open discussions may be the first step to what you are suggesting. I agree completely with you in that something has to change, but in my opinion that has to be far more reaching than just the removal of Doncaster. He is only the tip of the iceberg in ( as someone else posted ) the crucible of corruption. Go back to 2012 when Rangers were allowed back in, illegally by SPFL rules, Doncaster and the entire SFA/SPFL were responsible for that. The OF have always had the vital decisions go their way on the pitch, but now it is throughout the entire governance of the game. You touched on the possibility of a breakaway league. That in my opinion is the only way Scottish football will change and flourish. As long as the OF are involved the SFA/SPFL and the media will bend over for them. Now we come to the TV deals. SKY or BT will give a deal to the best and most watched product and for that reason watching the OF play each other nearly every week is a no no. FOH can do the dirty work here without involving the club and approach all full time ( only full time) clubs to see if they wish to attend a meeting to discuss the way forward. Doncaster ain't going to do it, Celtic ain't, Rangers ain't but many of the others just might. The one thing that all these clubs have to consider is that if they are unhappy with the status quo, then they have to as a group, get of the backsides and actually do something. If not we just stumble along as we have for the last 30 years accepting everything the authorities and the OF throw at us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely his salary is a joke - A BIG FAT ZERO is more realistic! Isn't he even earning more than trump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEWSTAND Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 It beggars belief but the latest article in the sun states that DUNGCASTER wishes AB and hearts to draw a line under the whole relegation matter now that it’s been in his favor. Is this man totally thick does he not even realize that this is now war with hearts supporters he is now the most vile and hated man in Scottish football and that is some accolade given the number of candidates. I will not be giving a penny to those money gabbing tin pot teams or anything to SFA for semi final. I also think we need some flags and banners to show our defiance of what is a corrupt organization headed up by a total buffoon. Heaven knows what will happen if he ever turns up at Tynecastle although he never will show his face boing the coward that he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all allow cretins like Dumbocaster to spout any old crap as long as it doesn’t criticise the Bigot Brothers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
