Ok so we all know that the Faithful and discrete slave class claim to be Gods organisation here on earth and that they claim that a God of order would have an organisation to organise his followers but can anyone pull a scripture of of their hat that proves that God doesn't need an organisation here on Earth?

It is impossible to prove a negative. However you can falsify the organization theory by demonstrating that other "faithful servants of jehover" were acting on their own.
How many solo "faithful servants of jehover" are in the bible?
(Mark 9:38-41) 38
John said to him: "Teacher, we saw a certain man expelling demons by the use of your name and we tried to prevent him, because he was not accompanying us." 39 But Jesus said: "Do not try to prevent him, for there is no one that will do a powerful work on the basis of my name that will quickly be able to revile me; 40 for he that is not against us is for us. 41 For whoever gives YOU a cup of water to drink on the ground that YOU belong to Christ, I truly tell YOU, he will by no means lose his reward. -

John chapter 4.
19 "Sir," the woman said, "I can see that you are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem."
21 Jesus declared, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. 22 You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."
Jesus was saying if you worship in truth (he is truth) it does not matter where you do it because God is a spirit and resides everywhere. Paul elaborates on this in acts:
Acts 17:24
"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands.Where is Jesus Spirit?
For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them
True christians are now united by holy spirit only and where two or three gather in Christ's name, he is there. No special building or organization is necesary. Hope this helps. God bless!
