One year ago today.
From the high of a new dawn from a takeover to the utterly incomprehensible appointment of this incompetent chancer less than a week later.
Set the club back big time and still recovering.
A truly massive mistake that should have been avoided at the time.

One year ago today.
From the high of a new dawn from a takeover to the utterly incomprehensible appointment of this incompetent chancer less than a week later.

🚨🔵 Rangers are closing in on the appointment of Russell Martin as new head coach.
Former Southampton manager has already accepted the project, ready for new chapter. 🏴
🚨⚪️⚫️ Borussia Mönchengladbach are closing in on Isac Lidberg deal from Darmstadt.
Deal worth €4m package, add-ons included. All agreed on player side, as @plettigoal@skysportde reported.
El Grande Americano x "Original" El Grande Americano has been my favorite thing going in combat sports. Bravo to everyone over at @luchalibreaaa.
Match of the Year. Entrance of the Year. Feud of the Year. Crowd of the Year. Undertaker for Booker of the Year.
It had it all.
El Grande Americano just arrived with one of the greatest wrestling entrances of all time for the Mask vs. Mask Match in Mexico.
The biggest babyface in all of Mexico.
PURE GOOSEBUMPS 😭🔥

🤬 Pic 1 - ‘Top of the foot’
🤬 Pic 2 - ‘Not seen enough to give a penalty’
🤬 Pic 3 - ‘It definitely hits the arm’
That’s 3 utterly embarrassing decisions and the VAR review show was amateurish, at best.
So what’s the solution?
First up, Iain Maxwell, Chief Exec of the SFA, says nothing. Does nothing. He’s a puppet.
What about Willie Collum?
The former referee has been in charge of our officials for TWO YEARS.
Our referees are getting worse under his watch, in my honest opinion.
What should happen?
COLLUM NEEDS SACKED.

This is quite unbelievable.
1) Beaton asking "definitely hits the arm?" YOU WATCH IT AND MAKE YOUR OWN MIND YA SAP - YOU'RE THE REF!!
2) Dallas instantly replying without an ounce of dubiety "definitely hits the arm" - the only non-Sellik person in the world with such conviction.
It's just bad decision upon decision and all adds up to utter incompetence.
These are our top officials supposedly 😄
▶️ Take a look at the VAR check that saw Celtic awarded a late penalty at Motherwell for handball.
At 6pm on @SkyFootball watch Scottish Football VAR Review to hear what the SFA's head of refereeing Willie Collum made of it 📺
VAR isn’t the issue
The issue is clearly compromised SFA officials benefiting one club.
Scottish football being called out worldwide as bent and these clowns are trying to get out of it and claim it’s the fault of everyone else.
They never take accountability. Embarrassing.
“VAR is working. It’s eradicating errors. But unfortunately we have a culture within Scottish football that just wants to focus on the negative and over-analyse."
SFA chief Ian Maxwell in strong defence of VAR as technology here to stay

This soundbite from the CEO of the SFA shows exactly why the officiating standards are where they are, and why they will never improve. It also shows why Collum will remain in situ after a mortifying season of gaffs and the reputation of Scottish football is in the toilet as a result. Not a single Scottish official at the World Cup.
It's defensive and laughably blames the notion that "we live in a country that forensically examines every decision" we have to presume there's zero intention to look at things with a critical eye and even admit that we need vast change and improvement.
I've said it before and this is the proof - the culture of low standards and low accountability starts at the top of the SFA and SPFL and is embedded right down.
Nothing is going to change while these people are in charge. A footballing backwater.
