If New Rangers want their old clubs history as there own, fine, but they should have to take the lot, its many punishments with it. I object to the notion that they can buy just the good bits.
Also at this stage, with the Tribunal possibly likely to suspend or terminate the Oldco's SFA licence, how can there possibly be a transfer? The Newco needs to start from scratch with its own licence and apply for entry into Division 3. Anything else is simply unacceptable.

What way do you see the votes going? Below is how I think the voting will go.
Aberdeen - No to getting back in.
Celtic - No to getting back in.
Dundee Utd - No to getting back in.
Hearts - Yes to getting back in.
Hibernian - No to getting back in.
Inverness CT - ??
Kilmarnock - Yes to getting back in.
Motherwell - ??
Rangers - Yes to getting back in.
Ross County - ??
St Johnstone - ??
St Mirren - Yes to getting back in.
Wouldn't it be tremendous if the SFL told them to bolt as well :thumbsup:Quote:

It's just like a school bully being expelled. The bully was taking everyone's lunch money and buying a roast while we were left with no frills beans everyday. Just because he changes his name and offers us say 10p to every £1 he's taken, doesn't mean he's allowed back in. Boot the bullies out and take a stand.
The dead ones don't get a vote!! .. Do they? ... :rolleyes:Quote:

Dundee Utd will vote yes to getting back in but with additional sanctions.Quote:

1 - when it's clear that rangers are non-existing and any new club set up in thier place applies to be readmitted to the spl, your guess is a s good as mine basically.Quote:

3 - they are all kapoot!
4 - fairest decision would be to allow dunfermline back in to the spl.
5 - spl will release fixtures with rangers there provisionally I would assume and In the event of them being booted out then Dunfermline just take over thier fixtures in the list
6 - doubt it
Hopefully, Hibs will take this opportunity to rebrand the season ticket deal

Dundee have prior rights under the rules. If I was them I would be preparing an application as we speak and threatening legal action if they were declined.Quote:

Agree , not a chance as there will be far too much dough for them to lose.Quote:

Disagree - Celtic will become richer without the huns - basically winning the league every year - guaranteed European Football (Champions League) - 1st pick on players wanting to play in the SPL.Quote:

According to this:

16:29 timestamp
der new hun will have one of the 12 votes
????????:furious:
SPL confirm that Rangers will appear in the fixture lists on Monday and that they also get to vote to get themselve back into the SPL - so already have 12.5% of the votes they need
I just don't understand how they can try to defend that club.
It CHEATED the public out of money. Money which could and should have went to schools, hospitals, public projects didn't because Rangers decided to not pay tax and go for glory instead.
Division 3 is the least they should be given as punishment.
I think their joint sponsors would have a thing or two to say about it.Quote:

There's a lot of money and interest in the Old Firm aspect too - and long term I think they would be bored walking a league every year.
The rest of the SPL doesn't need Rangers, but Celtic do.
