Yeah after my initially fury I'm still convinced this is a non starter. There is no incentive for div 2 and 3 clubs to vote for this and enough clubs have stated they oppose anything but div3 application for Seveco. Surely this is one last attempt by Cockwomble to save his job. When ever we get to the end of all this bullshit and sit down to cooly and calmly reorganise Scottish Football the first item of discussion should be who to replace that ring piece Doncaster.

feedback@afc.co.uk although I know this doesn't often get replied to also emailed Dave Macdermid <davidm@afc.co.uk> Anyone got any other email addresses handy?

Actually if you take out all mention of Rangers (WHO DON'T EXIST!!) the proposals are good and are ones that I would welcome. But what the fuck are they "briefing" Green for? Fucking sickening.

Stewart Gilmour was the one that suggested this, haven't heard anyone else mention it. League reconstruction is needed but should be discussed and debated over the next year with a view to changing for 2013/14 at the very earliest. Yes we should take advantage of the current climate to effect change but doing so overnight and in a way that will be widely viewed as (yet again) for the benefit of the bigger clubs and specifically Seveco.

afc's inbox needs flooded. I know the doomsayers were predicting this but I would still maintain it is unlikely to happen, but fans at all levels need to mobilise one more time.

Scotland to get 20,000 tickets for the game which can be reserved with Hampden "Season Ticket" which go on sale tomorrow

morons http://yfrog.com/f26h0z

All god but will take a year or two to implement. Can't see that they can push this through to let the huns into div1, at least they better not.

Apparently 3pts might be enough which means I'll get a ticket but probably none of the folk I'm booked up with

yeughhhhhhhhhchhhhhhh So no more new signings then. Not sure how Pawlett can be counted as "like a new signing", he wasn't out for that long.

True However they might rearrange things once seveco are already in div3, ie start of 2013/14 which could see div3 champs in tier 2.

Absolutely. The SPL has been an utter disaster for the top of the game and Scottish Fitba as a whole. I suspect in a year or so we shall see the end of the SPL and a new National League run by the SFA or SFL. It will see larger leagues at Tier one and two and then possibly renationalised leagues integrating into a pyramid structure below that. This is what everyone has been asking for for years and the current climate may well see it happen. It will of course also please the beancounters and cockwombles of this world as it will likely mean SeveCo could be back in the top league after two seasons instead of three. Actually can you imagine the huns when whatever their team is called gets back into the top league. Their WATP arrogance will be worse then ever, they will want to wreck retribution on all and sundry and their first matches vs celtic and at Pittodrie will be blood baths. Fuck div3, kill them outright!

They are getting support from the EU Parliament now:

I hope he does get involved, look what he did to Clyde

There are so many but with the UVF sympathiser making the news today the image of Goram punching the ball into his own net from a Jamie Buchan punt from half way has me sitting here with a big grin on my face.

True it hasn't happened yet, and maybe I'm being naive, but I can't see this ending any other way than 3rd div, that is if rangers (deceased) doesn't implode before then. At ever stage people have, rightly, been sceptical that the SFA, the SPL, AFC and countless others wouldn't step up to the plate. Instead we have had the SFA handing down a yr signing ban, the SPL agreeing to have a newco vote involving all 11 clubs, afc stating they will vote no and now the majority of spl clubs openly stating their position to be no. Yeah the vote hasn't happened yet but there is no way that they will be in the SPL. Now the buck has been passed to the SFL. They have yet to meet in full which leaves a vacuum for speculation and doubt but with only 8 out of 30 clubs needed to oppose any shenanigans I can't see there being any issue, especially given the comments from several boards already and the pressure of sfl fans. I probably had a softer line than you TF and the fact the spl and more importantly afc have done the right thing is enough for me for now. For me they have done enough to deserve my full support. If in the unlikely situation that ZombieCo are parachuted into sfl1 then the SPL role in the process and how they will deal with any potential promotion needs to be looked at in detail.

The club have done their bit, indeed the SPL clubs have done their bit. The ball is now very much in the SFL club's court. The Boards of the SPL, SFA and SFL can talk all they like but the clubs have to vote it through and they are currently being deluged with emails and letters from the their fans, just as our club was. At every stage the cynics, doubters and conspiracy theorists have said they would get away with it. As it is being in a position to have team play in the 3rd Div never mind anywhere else will be a minor miracle. The club have done what we asked. I don't support the SPL, I don't support the SFL and I don't support Cockwomble, Reagan or Longmuir. Back the club.

Raith Rovers Chairman:

Dear christ It seems the Sun is running with a story that "Bomber" Brown is forming a consortium of ex-players including Brian Laudrup, Jorg Albertz and Lorenzo Amoruso to buy Seveco from Green. Do people actually believe this bullshit?
