So what happens if Newco get into the 1st division and dont win promotion first time of asking?

Do we then change the rules to suit them again.

This whole saga stinks and its getting worse by the day....

Only in Scottish football could we be sitting here with a league programme about to start in 5 weeks time and we have 3 clubs at least not knowing what league they are in and one of them not even knowing if they will be in a league.

Well done SPL/SFL/SFA for making our game an even bigger laughing stock than it already was:o

The thing is Smange the season COULD start in 3 weeks time for Sevco as Ramsdens Cup is 28th July!:mmm:

I really fear for the game regardless of which option is taken,fans have seen how shockingly badly run the game is,they thought it for years but now they are seeing it right before their eyes.

If the vote goes the right and proper way Dodger, my season starts next saturday at the footballing mecca also known as Shielfield Park:thup:. Timed this years visit to the Borders perfectly for the match, will you be in attendance?

Hopefully might get a game with you at the Hirsel and/or Goswick if you around and not away on one of your jaunts.

back on topic though...Turnbull Hutton once again says it like it is..

That very question was asked of Stewart Gilmour and he said he has no players on any longer than 2 year deals so could cope untill then and thereafter look at cutting costs, he laid a very black picture by suggesting that St Mirren (who are a well run club) could still face administration.

That I know for a fact is not true. PM me and I will tell you why I know that its not true 100%. Possibly a bit of scare mongering but not true.

Friendly isn't it? Big hopes for the Dream Team this year from the locals although I don't really share it as we haven't really got a team yet!

Struggling for golf as got Captains day at Hirsel 14th,Christening on 15th,day at work 16th then off to Tuscany on 17th for a week.

Let me know if you want a tee time at Hirsel and I'll book you in at a mate rate.;)

Yep friendly but I will pop along as long as the Newco fiasco is sorted and sorted properly by then.

Your a busy guy and hard to pin down for a game of golf

Hows the Hirsel for getting on as a visitor on a sunday afternoon as might be looking to play 15th and if not that day will be either thursday 19th or friday 20th

I know why you know as we had spoke on how you have your contact on the way up to Machrihanish, however my work colleague was there last night and that is what was said by Stewart, scaremongering maybe.

Technically the Ramsdens cup would need to be a redraw. Rangers would need to take dunfermline or Dundee's place. Both clubs are currently in the North/East section. Rangers should be in the West/South section and one of the more central clubs (Livi or East stirlingshire should move section :rofl:


As for what would happen if rangers were in SFL1 and do not get promoted.

A few months ago when Rangers went into admin, the non old firm 10 had meetings to discuss reconstruction. It was at this time Peter Lawell stated he would not be against a 14 team league, probably to keep a 2 team veto vote on some topics which suited the old firm. I would fully expect further SPL reconstruction and Rangers be one of the teams invited into the 14 team SPL if they did not win promotion

Just wondering .... no mater where they end up Do the new team have a team? or a panel players ?

Bill, I think they managed 13 at training but that included 2 keepers so they can put 11 out on the park but im sure once they know whats happening will sign a few more and the SPL/SFA/SFL will probably extend the transfer deadline for them anyway so I wouldnt worry too much about them having a side.
 
Funny I dont know why. But I have read this thread from beginning to end. I have no interest in Scottish football. Very little in football full stop.
I think the only thing that kept me reading. Was the shock and disgust. At many of the views not connected to football flying about. All I can say its a sorry day for Scotland and all the decent Scots people of who there must be many.

Jesus NO!!!

Scottish football is corrupt enough without letting theiving, lying, self indulgent politicians into the mix:angry:
 
News Just Breaking

SPL clubs have stood up and and been counted.

They have at last voted No to Newco being in SPL next season:clap:
 
Reports now appearing online that the votes have been cast (which even a vote taking place was in doubt) and the No's have it for admission to SPL. Club 12 TBC but not the old or new Rangers

Edit, it seems at least 10 clubs opposed the motion
