Kowalski Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 So is this a straight forward vote to put them into Division 3, or was it the originally worded resolution 2? Let's fucking hope its not the later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kowalski Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Rangers' future remains uncertain after the Scottish Football League clubs voted against the Light Blues playing in the First Division next season. "At a meeting at Hampden today, the 30 member clubs agreed to accept Rangers into the SFL but voted against the SFL board being allowed to broker a deal with the SPL and SFA over new structures and procedures which would also include Rangers playing in Division One. "It is now understood that on the back of a briefing SPL chief executive Neil Doncaster and SFA counterpart Stewart Regan gave to clubs last week that the SPL will introduce a plan for SPL 2 - which would include Rangers - and invite existing Division One members to join.

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 And here it is, the very end stage of the death of Scottish football to save a poisonous sore of a club. "It is now understood that on the back of a briefing SPL chief executive Neil Doncaster and SFA counterpart Stewart Regan gave to clubs last week that the SPL will introduce a plan for SPL 2 - which would include Rangers - and invite existing Division One members to join."

Azteca1903 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Who from the SPL is involved in this? What is AFC's stance? Season ticket holders deserve know now. Absolutely.

BobbyBiscuit Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Why does Green keep believing what Regan tells him as to where the huns will be next season?

Kowalski Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Jim Ballantyne: "We don't have any control over the SPL. And they are entitled to do whatever they wish, within their own rules. "But it's important to mention that the Division One clubs went out of their way to make it clear that their route regarding a solution involved all 42 teams. "I think that says a lot for them. "Other bodies are going to have to look at the decision we've taken and decide what view they are going to take. "As far as we're concerned, it's crystal clear and it was a massive majority. "The talk of financial meltdown is scary for everybody but that completely ignores the views of the fans. "The fans have been vociferous in their view of what this whole situation may bring. "Every single club would be happy to tell you about the amount of contact they have had from supporters, expressing concern. "I've never know anything like it in the 10 years I've been involved in football." "This one particular completely covers every single club and the message coming across from every club is exactly the same, even from Rangers fans themselves: if they had their choice it would be Division Three. "That reflected the views of First, Second and Third Division clubs. "You have to consider what the actions of fans may be if sporting integrity is challenged. "Who has put a price on what will happen if they do not come to watch games? "Yes, clubs are worried about figures in one direction but there is a huge concern about figures in the other direction. "It's a very brave decision from the SFL but I'm not surprised." Time for Regan and Doncaster to admit defeat and GTF out of Scottish football forever.

Jute Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 SFA and SPL should be pushed for statments on this today. SPL clubs themselves could of course kill any speculation tonight by saying that they will not vote to form an SPL 2 or readmit Newco to SPL. Bet they don't.
