Don't go putting words in my mouth Given the facts we have then our club has acted exactly as they said they would so credit where credit is due. Until the full facts of the attempt to interfere in SFL business is known I will be holding fire.Quote:

Thats why i've never understood the whole hype of injecting loads of cash into a league, because it doesn't give any of the clubs any clear advantage over the others.
Sadly, the behaviour of many senior figures (who should be trustworthy) has lead to the ordinary person assuming they are all crooked, scheming bully boys who pay lips service to the wishes of the common fan, natural justice and sporting integrity until their action prove otherwise. And for good reason. Petrie and all the others still have work to do before they will have finally done the right thing.Quote:

You can look at "but ifs" all you want, but the vote was "no".
Dundee been advised that they will not have a vote on the newco to SFL due to a direct conflict of interest.
Looks like its definitely them coming up.
To the tune of Danny Boy:

how polished are your trouser knees?
Will your team be gone soon,
is your team feelin' the same financial squeeze?"

Doesnt seem like it as they say "We were the only team in Division 1 told this as no other Club was conflicted."Quote:

For SFA entry, as I read it, it says "only" approved accounts. ie don't need to be audited. It looks like they are only needed for one year, which stuffs Sevco anyway.
Without SFA entry, that would disbar them from the SFL, no?
Interesting they also say that there is a large penalty for abstaining in a vote like this, unless there are extraordinary circumstances.Quote:

No. That was an SPL vote.Quote:

10-1, with Killie abstaining and the Huns voting for themselves.Quote:

dont see why they are not allowed to vote because of a conflict of interest when rangers were just allowed to vote in whether they should be allowed into the SPL.Quote:

So Killie will miss out on newco money next season and now probably have upset Celtic and other SPL clubs also.
If they had voted No then they would have upset newco but the rest of the SPL clubs would have still given them money.
Makes no sense to me :confused:
Good old BBC. Do they know Rangers aren't in liquidation? :rolleyes:Quote:

Killie are skint ENDOF. They did and will open 3 stands to Smellic next year in order to get dosh. If theyve abstained then **** them too. Money grabbing whores.Quote:

So they will have Celtic and other SPL clubs against them instead of newco only in the longer run - that could be up to 3 years time! :confused:Quote:
