DALLAS WITCH HUNT?

DID I just blink and miss something? Has Henry McLeish suddenly taken over the Scottish Football Association?

 

For right now*the SFA is slap bang in the middle of the sort of muddle which cost McLeish his job as Scotland's first minister.

 

Remember? A muddle, not a fiddle, was the McLeish whine as he got the boot. Well, if what is happening at the SFA is not a fiddle, then it is most certainly, at best, a muddle.

 

For it would be no surprise to find that there are many out there, who value the virtue of fair play, who may just be starting to believe that Hugh Dallas is the victim of a witch hunt.

 

And if they do come around to forming such a view then the question they will be asking is just who it is who has been doing the witch hunting?

 

The facts as they are .....five SFA employees, including Dallas, were investigated for an email which was said by some to be in poor taste.

 

Peter Kearney, the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland's mouthpiece, then weighed in with the claim that it showed sectarianism was rife within the SFA.

 

Dallas and the other four were sacked. Four, including Dallas, launched an appeal. All, except Dallas, now have their jobs back.

 

Before the email row blew up we were told that the then newly installed SFA chief executive Stewart Regan wanted referee*Dougie McDonald's head on a plate after the penalty row when Dundee United lost to Celtic.

 

Assistant referee Craven, who was involved, then lashed out at Dallas, and quit. There followed a series of leaks about the referees' department at the SFA, with some claims so outlandish they are not worth repeating.

 

Regan was said to be less than happy that Dallas defended McDonald, and that the referees' committee were so lenient with the whistler.

 

Thus, some people may conclude, when the email details were leaked - by whom? - in the wake of Craven quitting, that*Regan saw his chance. The timing will lead some*to this perception.

 

The SFA, by giving the three others who appealed, their jobs back, have created a real and present danger that*some will gain*the perception the real target was Dallas... and Dallas alone.

 

*And that there was a witch hunt against the most respected referee Scotland has given UEFA and FIFA for decades.

 

At the moment Dallas is keeping his powder dry as his options - and those of the SFA - narrow.

 

The chance for the SFA to give him back his job, along with the other three, has now gone. The only option remaining for the SFA is to offer Dallas a bumper payment - hush money - with a confidentiality clause - a gag.

 

Dallas would surely insist that any such deal bound the SFA to continue to back him as a senior official at UEFA - and possibly even FIFA in the future.

 

The Dallas options are that he could accept such a sweetheart deal, or he could fight to clear his name, and have his day in court. Such an option carries the danger that he could lose. Regardless of the rights and wrongs.

 

Remember those clowns in the jury which found for Tommy Sheridan when the liar*he sued the News of the World?

 

That injustice has been righted and Sheridan faces years in the slammer for his lies.

 

No doubt Dallas, a highly intelligent man, is getting the best legal advice money can buy, plus advice from other world renown former referees throughout the world.

 

In the end, though, the decision will rest with him. Will he take the risk?* Is*he is brave enough to drag through the court those who many believe, by their actions in giving three of the four who appealed, their jobs back, now stand accused of a witch hunt against Dallas.

 

A muddle? Or a fiddle? Oh dear, we're back to old 'Enery McLeish again. And that's never good news.

Mark(the Slug)Guidi has been at the forefront of the witch hunt against Dallas, in both broadcast and print media.

 

In May'99, his copy was pulled because it was threatening to both Dallas and his family. The copy that was put out was continually reinforced by him on Radio Snyde, Dallas performance that evening at ra Stydome was the worst he had seen. Clearly, ra Sellik lost the league and the match that evening because of Dallas. Guidi stated that nothing could convince him otherwise.

 

At Tannadice in October'10, Guidi siezed the opportunity provided. The Linesman, Steven Craven(a Sellik fan being threatened by fellow Sellik fans) agreed to interview by Guidi for money(how much was he paid for his three articles?); and suddenly the emphasis changed to Dallas and his SFA role. Craven accused Dallas of bullying, having favourites, and being untouchable. Guidi and the usual suspects then began to lionise Stewart Regan, Guidi began columns and speeches on Snyde with, "lets be quite clear here, the one man who has NOT put a foot wrong in this whole sorry episode, is Stewart Regan". We know Regan was headhunted for the SFA by a recruitman firm utilised by Sellik Vice-Chair and SFA Board member, Eric Reilly.
