Another day of drama beckons at The Rangers/Sevco 5088/ Sevco Scotland or whatever they want called today.

Anyone fancy a guess on how many players turn up for training?

Definate 3 anyway.

Seemingly 11 turned up but that includes two keepers so not even a full team.
 
As a Jambo it pleases me no end that sevco 5580 will be paying Lee Wallace's wages for the next 2 years.
There is a hell of a lot of Karma floating around this thread.

It would suit them better to cough up the 800,000 they still owe for himm. I see rapid are going to uefa/FIFA over the jelavic money as secco are to get the remainder from everton.

It's funny how that works, isn't it? I mean in general - not just football. Debtors still have to pay up and creditors get screwed. Not fair really.
 
Stolen from twitter.

In for training: Alexander, Gallacher, Broadfoot, Perry, Hutton, Cole, K Naismith, Hegarty, Wallace, McCulloch, Mitchell, Hemmings

Has the makings of a good team :mmm:

2 stand out,I mean how old is Paul Hegarty now and imagine Ashley being sent to Sevco as part of his punishment for missing that penalty....very harsh,even for an Englishman.

Are you sure the new club is getting future Jelavic revenues. In corporate law that would go to the admins of old business and straight to the creditors.

Also RFC have not been paid prize money for SPL from last season. Hearts did not appear on the CVA voting minutes as a creditor. Suspect that the SPL would settle RFC debt with them

That is possible I suppose and tend to agree on the Jelavic monies too which would give big Charlie even less dosh to play with.

Jamie Ness reported to be signing with Stoke.
 
breaking news on Sky Sports that SPL planning to relegate Rangers to First Division after talks with SFL:angry:

If this happens it is the end for Scottish Football

Was reported on the bbc doesn't really mean much I know but there you go.

Agreed but a couple kfthe Internet bampots reckon that this is a pr stunt from sevco which is goig to hide some news regarding murray park

This would only be acceptable if Dunfermline remain in the SPL.
If they promote Dundee, who were over 20 points behind The Staggies, it would be tremendously unfair.

Looking at thier squad and finances I don't think promotion from Div 1 is a certainty.

It is starting to look like reorganisation with two bigger leagues for next season.
I somehow feel the hand of 'the establisment' in this move.
 
Its totally unacceptable in my opinion.

Rangers from last season do not exist, if they did you could almost make an arguement for the first division but as The Rangers are a new club they have to start at the bottom.

Anything else and I and I know many others will never set foot in another Scottish football ground and this includes matches for the national side.

And if the SFL clubs vote for them to be allowed into the first they may expect a large percentage of their fans to turn their backs on them.

Don't want to be rude but I don't believe you, sorry. Very few people (who actually attend matches) are going to completely stop going to football if this happens. I mean, you think Celtic fans are going to abandon their club over it? No chance.

That said, I agree that it's totally wrong. It's a fudge cooked up by the hypocritical SPL teams. They were all for their "sporting integrity" but are now trying to cover their arses and get "Rangers" back in asap. Newsflash for them is that I doubt Rangers as they stand would be able to win promotion from div 1 next season anyway.

Ignore anything coming out of "Rangers" just now. Charles Green has no interest in the club, he's there to make money and the higher up the tree Rangers rejoin the sooner he cuts and runs.

Only two options for me - stick with the status quo and allow a new Rangers to rebuild for div 3. Or, grasp the nettle and radically restructure Scottish Football. The latter is very tough though - we just don't have the right spirit or leaders to make these sort of changes. Too open to accusations that it was only done to preserve Rangers rather than to genuinely improve our game.

I don't know what the new structure would be BTW, and I'm not arguing for a new structure with Rangers back at the top, just speculating, so don't want flamed again!

Frankly, as I've said before, I vote for Rangers in div 3 with a clean slate.

:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Really.

You think Rangers are in position to ask SPL clubs to allow the any of the following

1) possibility of an extra SFL Club in via a play off and the espense of a current SPL club.
2)
In a position to demand a merger of the SPL and SFL.

3) SPL Clubs to give up some cash by making changes to the distribution model for clubs in the top two tiers with teams in the lower leagues earning a similar amount to the current set-up

4) SPL to pay SFL TV revenues for RFC games televised in the SFL


5) And Rangers to accept any punishments that were to be made to the Oldco are applicable to the Newco without knowing what they are.

THe SPL have rejected the playoff for years, why would it be accepted now on RFC demand??

Reports also state that Rod Petrie (Hibs chairman and on SPL board) is breifing Charles Green on this proposal. Looks more like it has come from the SPL board to get RFC back in for TV revenues

It certainly looks like SKY would honour a TV contract judging if RFC are in SFL1 hoping they get back to SPL quickly.


Fan pressure has forced SPL clubs into rejecting Newco. If the SPL Clubs statements about rejecting newco down to sporting integrity hold true, this deal should not be on the table. They are asking SFL clubs to forget any notion about sporting integrity by dangling an extra couple of carrots in front of them.

It remains to be seen if these extra carrots would make the SFL clubs who have already voiced a rejection change there mind. What i do think is certain though is that SFL2 and SFL3 clubs would reject this. Reports state that their revenue streams would remain the same and no extra money from SPL would flow down this far. Why would they basically vote for a no change and pass on the possibility of meeting Rangers if they work their way back up the leagues.
