Gordon Smith

What a useless after dinner speaker that guy is: I expected far better than someone tell us 'Now, a lot of things that happened in football are a laugh', while reminding the audience he is in a select group of ex players with degrees.

Absolutely shite.

The other guy, Gene Fitzpatrick, was quite good, but I'd had a few more drinks when he was on.

Degree my hairy top lip arse

He's got an HND in business studies or summat hasn't he?

That and a very unconvincing syrup.

It was a 'freebie', James.

Before he got the SFA job Smith used to pester certain clubs with presentations of his grand plans for their future. Apparently his proposals (which of course involved hiring him as CEO) were under-grad stuff drawn straight from the business books, all management doublethink pish.

My source for this is at Rangers, where apparently they used to have a right good laugh at Gordon's latest "hire me" begging letter. They used to get Campbell Ogilvie to make sure the fuck-off reply was polite so he didn't take out his huff with them on-air.

Sadly the saps at the SFA fell for it.

Speaking of the SFA ... Celtic once had an ardent applicant for CEO years ago (among other clubs). His name? H Dallas (Bonkle).

Strange but true.
