Pure propaganda and absolute tripe on so many levels. Pretty sure the Football League Chairman made a categoric statement just a couple of months ago saying Rangers and Celtic have got no chance of joining the Football League.

I'd assume by docking them enough points to see then dropped to bottom of the league.
The SPL seem to have the ability to come up what ever punishment they feel like, and Donkey won't have given up trying his best for the Huns.Last edited by WindyMiller; 21-06-2012 at 07:27 AM.

Just noticed on the BBC. web site that the huns are rumoured to be interested in buying English League 2 club Bury to get a foothold in the English League.
What a ******' pantomime, my friends you just could NOT make this up, what's the odds on a 500 page thread !!!
Allez les Verts. !!

Well I did say about a week ago all that was missing in this story was a hostile takeover bid - and hey ho here it is. As a wise man said this story just keeps on giving!"We know the people who have invested so far are simple fans." Vladimir Romanov - Scotsman 10th December 2012
"Romanov was like a breath of fresh air - laced with cyanide." Me.

Surely Rangers wont leave us in the lurch and move to Bury, they have been telling us Scottish football couldn't do without them?
I'm confused?

If the story about Green trying to buy Bury and move Rangers to the English Div 1 are true, Rangers have committed suicide as far as Scotland is concerned.
Who on earth would vote to have them in the SPL in the full knowledge that they are preparing to walk away from the Scottish game?

Just watched the news with breakfast, can anyone tell me when Jimmy Carr played for rfc? Can't remember it myself but his tax arrangements sound very David Murray!

The thing that annoyed me most about it was the suggestion that Sevco can't be relegated to the 3rd, because of the various infrastructural problems they would cause. They seem to miss the point that what we want to hear is that they will be treated the same way as any other club would, not as a special case. That is what would 'placate' fans.Last edited by s.a.m; 21-06-2012 at 09:04 AM.

Anyone else thinking of the film "Weekend at Bernies" when reading all this guff in the papers?
Main character is plainly dead but everyone else appears oblivious to the fact....

I'm confused, I thought Rangers died as they had no money so couldn't pay their debts. All that was in the pot from the New Club was 5.5m to cover Duff and Duffers bills, so all the creditors would get hee-haw if they knocked back the CVA. How come they've now got spare cash to buy their way into the English league by killing an English league team, which is in a better state than them. Either they've got cash or they haven't. The nonsense coming from Greyskull is astounding.
NewHun isn't really off the ground yet and I already hate them as much as I hated the old one.

Has anyone had a look on a Bury Messageboard to see how excited they are getting?

The SPL only has the power to transfer the share or not. If not then the SFL will have a vacancy, once the SPL invites another SFL member.

That way the Pars stay up and the Huns go down.
Not sure how Dundee might react (or whether retrospective punishment of a new entity is legal).

After the split the top six remain the top six regardless of how many point teams in the bottom six gain. Rangers could argue that they would have gained more points post-split had they been in the bottom six.

The simple way for the SPL to deal with it is for the point docking for last Season to relegate Rangers at the end of last Season in the normal way to SFL 1 and Dunfemline avoids the drop. Liquidated Rangers 1872 would have no SPL share to transfer to any new club.
The SFL can then decide if they want New Rangers to be in Div 1,2 or 3 or even at all.

Surely the English FA would have a right to turn around and stick two fingers up to any move by Rangers to buy a lower league English club and insert themselves into their place?
How many times do England need to say "no" before it sinks in?Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

Rangers- seen to be punished severely, SPL- seen to be strong, Uefa- seen to be appeased, honour and justice- seen to be held up, club chairman- see their finances not too badly damaged, Sky- seen to not be interfering by insisting on Rangers out of SPL.
The only thing not seen is me at another Scottish Football match.

Added to the Football League saying they aren't welcome, and UEFA being steadfast against clubs trying to change leagues they have no chance.
Not that pesky details like that are a factor in cloud cuckoo land when Sevco live.
