I don't get this "scab" mentality, people will make decisions based on their own best interests and not that of others or the majority. Bus companies make money by transporting passengers, why should Celtic not hire them? Because of the Sevco chairman or the miners who needed to work? What tripe on here at times honestly!

UI agree with money and business, but the owner of parks is douglas park a major shareholder at the crumbledome so i would like us to find a bus company without ties to them.

Malkybhoy i gather you were not around in 1984 when an industry stood up for itself. then thatcher decided to break them. she sent in her storm troopers and smashed innocent men and women's heads because they were demonstrating their democratic right to march peacefully in something they believed in. If you think that's tripe, look at the industry now.1000 miners left out of 100,000. ed apologies mate i know this is a football site and will step of ma soap box mate.

So why shouldn't we hire Parks buses?

Malkybhoy
It’s pretty obvious.
A major shareholder and Chairman of our main rivals, is constantly putting in his own money which has helped his club overtake ours.
Celtic FC have been giving this guy money for years and it should’ve been stopped as soon as Park became a director at Ibrox.
I also agree with Robroy and his opening post.
How Douglas Park managed to build an empire after running buses during the strike is baffling.
Men who worked through the strikes have still not been forgiven by their local communities and others had to move away.
Park was also a traitor but gets to build a successful business.

Malkybhoy would you walk into a rangers shop and buy their merchandise? putting money into your major competitors pocket.
01 Jun 2021 20:00:59
Completely agree robroy, your point is more than relevant ðŸ‘.
Infact, I'd doubt if any Celtic supporter with any sense would disagree.
No more Douglas (CHAIRMAN OF SEVCO) Park buses, get them tae feck and when they're leaving CP for the last time I hope Lennedy and Bankier are on them.

No Robroy that was not the reason why you were saying we shouldn't hire parks. Fair enough about putting money in a rivals pocket but when you go on about "scab" miners then that isn't a reason.
{Ed007's Note - Get in touch with a fan group, you'd get on the board in a heartbeat.
