    So the news is that.... there is not yet any news.

    Sounds like a desperate man trying to hang on to his job.

    "hopeful of announcing a new sponsor by the start of next season" = just as close to a new deal as they were last year.

    It is a weird statement. What's the point in saying anything until it's confirmed. They really are a bunch of amateurs.

    Grade A plumb who will be pinning all his hopes on The Rangers making a return to the top flight this year. What an added bonus it would be for us to gain promotion and dash all his hopes!

    I wonder how close he will be to clinching a deal if The Rangers don't go up.

    United we stand here....

    An announcement that before the start of next season there might be an announcement, but he isn't sure .... this guy is gonna take Scottish football to new heights. I dare say what league The Rangers are going to be in will be a factor in at least the amount of money on the table.

    Hmmmmmm

    Scottish championship play off semi final first leg ... The Rangers F.C. v Hibernian F.C. ........ Referee .. W Collum

    Clearly trying to take the heat off after his monumental **** ups. Basically nothing to report. Good one. Maybe his recent fixture meetings with the Orange Order have proved a success though...

    That is a really depressing statement. Doncaster is not selling a 'property' - he is selling a vision for the future of Scottish professional football that excites and engages us as fans and partners.

    As an example the NFL vision is to be the premier sports and entertainment brand that brings people together, connecting them socially and emotionally like no other. By way of comparison I have absolutely no clue what the SPFL stands for. Until Doncaster sorts that out the SPFL will continue to confuse and bemuse punters, clubs and potential commercial backers alike as it is adding absolutely no value whatever to Scottish football.

    BBC ask a question, report a generic response and regurgitate some January quotes from Doncaster. Non story.

    He'd have been better saying nothing and working away at it. All this does is highlight yet again that the useless c*** has failed to find a sponsor for our league for the last two years.

    With the rangers starting again in the bottom tier he may well have struggled to match the previous deal, but I'm sure most of us would have understood that. A 2/3 year deal at a lower level would have been better than no ****** sponsorship income whatsoever.

    As an absolute minimum he could even have given away the sponsorship free for a year to a Scottish charity such as Shelter Scotland. It is really starting to annoy me that this clown is still in a well paid, hugely important role for our game.

    off topic a tad but i see the prices for the SC final have been slashed

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32486525


    Scottish Cup final tickets will be £5 for a significant number of Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Falkirk fans.

    Adult ticket prices will range from £15 to £30 and a family of four will be able to attend the match from £60.
