More (email) evidence has emerged concerning the possibility of a future merger of the Scottish and Welsh football teams into a single TeamGB for the 2012 Olympics.
Christine Graham, the MSP who requested the document, said: “Only last month Gordon Brown was telling us that he had spoken to the President of Fifa, Sepp Blatter, and was confident he would get the ‘assurances’ needed to persuade the Scottish Football Association, and their counterparts in Wales and Ireland, to take part in a GB Olympic football team.
“The documents I have obtained flatly contradict that and demonstrate that any such assurance would be meaningless.

Hang on, wasn’t the last leak reported here along the lines that the GB government was seeking the merger not any future FIFA board?
“New Labour allegedly plans to merge Wales’s national football and rugby teams into new “Great Britain” superteams in the wake of the successes of “Team GB” at the Beijing Olympics, a whistleblower on Gordon Brown’s political staff has revealed.”
So come on, are the British government pro or con?
The only thing the Matt Withers piece proves is how much the original article on CP was horse shit.
This David guy obviously loves ‘horse shit’ so much (he can’t stop using the word), it obviously reveals something about his mental state! Quite patently he doesn’t understand the way politics (especially Downing Street politics) works. What the Welsh Whistleblower was saying was what Gordon Brown and his cronies really intend. What they actually say in public has little to do with it. The fact is that Gordy wants to bolster Britishness in sport and everywhere else as an antedote to Labour’s collapsing heartlands and a failing economy. Only a complete and utter dickhead can fail to understand that, horse shit or no horse shit. Incidentally it’s good for growing mushrooms – so spread it about a bit!
“This David guy obviously loves ‘horse shit’ so much (he can’t stop using the word), it obviously reveals something about his mental state! ”
Actually it’s being used in the context of the absolute fantasy Welsh Whistleblower and the twisting of any news despite non-relevance to fit the meme.
“What the Welsh Whistleblower was saying was what Gordon Brown and his cronies really intend.”
Ah, so he/she is now reading their minds? There is no intention to scrap either the WFA or the WRU, unless you can back up this claim it’s absolute horse shit. Full stop.
“The fact is that Gordy wants to bolster Britishness in sport and everywhere else as an antedote to Labour’s collapsing heartlands and a failing economy.”
Not even Gordy would believe that would work, anyway even if it were his intention there is no proof to back up the assertion that Labour are planning the scrapping of the WFA, WRU, SFA and the SRU.
“Only a complete and utter dickhead can fail to understand that”
Only a complete and utter dickhead would fail to see that there is no truth in the original assertion and that the post above which is trying to back it up proves the absolute opposite.
Bollocks….and horse shit of course!
