Up to 6 SPL clubs at risk according to Stewart Regan.

Well I'm guessing it's not one of the clubs that have publicly stated that they are voting NO. That only leaves 6 clubs, 1 of which has already been liquidated and one of the others is CELTIC?
I never knew things were so bad down Parkhead way .. I'd be gutted if they ended up going into liquidation as well!

***Hibernia&Alba*** · 03-07-2012 04:54 PM

What time are they going to vote?

***Baldy Foghorn*** · 03-07-2012 04:56 PM

All I think about now is just how corrupt the guys who run our game are. Doncaster, Regan and Longmuir, totally corrupt, totally out of their depth. All member clubs should be demanding their resignations immediately. The document that was outed last week was shocking and insulting to all other clubs and supporter's.....Not bothered about the game, or clubs outwith the Old Firm....At least Turnbull Hutton spoke of the reality on the Hampden steps....

I would love to see FIFA come down on these clowns like a ton of bricks....

They will, if it's not sorted out fairly!

Turnbull Hutton is more likely to be sanctioned for calling them corrupt

Yep. Of that I am confident.

The death of Scottish football that has been foretold will happen, and that's from the fans of the good, honest, law abiding clubs deciding that they cannot bear to see the teams they have invested in financially and emotionally play in a league created by hustlers and con men.

No more highlighted that Longmuir's TOTAL change of opinion regarding Rangers in SFL1!
Last week he's saying that there is no way that they would get into SFL1 .. a couple of (behind the scenes) meetings with Green, Reagan and Donkeycaster and, lo and behold, today he's saying that it's a necessity to prevent an armageddon-like collapse of Scottish football!!

Rangers' psychological ineptitude has been remarkable. If this type of apology had come as soon as Green took over and been accompanied by the "concessions" he's apparently now offering then Rangers would be looking at a yes from the SPL tomorrow. At least some of the players who've left would still be at Ibrox and he could have sold a few to keep the cash-flow moving.

All that was needed to keep the SPL chairmen onside was a statement that the club was sorry about the behaviour of the previous owner - not in keeping with the club's values blah blah - we accept the transfer ban punishment waffle waffle etc etc. I think the Court of Session appeal was what started turning everything against them.

I'll just throw in another small rules detail. The SFL requires a two year period of notice for a member to leave. The only documented exception to this is a club entering the SPL as 1st division champions. Neither Dunfermline nor Dundee meet this condition so they have to stay in the SFL next season unless compensation for breach of the notice period is paid.

alex thomson‏@alextomoAirdrie Chairman and Football League President Jim Ballantyne has several hundred Rangers shares

He also said earlier that Campbell Ogilvie had 4000 Rangers' shares, which he transferred too his wife when he went to Hearts.

I hope that Alex Thomson (and anyone else seriously probing the corruption involved) manages to get a proper BBC/Channel 4 analysis of what has gone on this week .. before the SFL vote next week!

This scaremongering is BEYOND corrupt!

Even SKY are issuing statements that the threats of lost TV deals and figures of £17m are absolute bollocks! And that they have not even spoken to anyone about renogiation, never mind "walking away"!

Its not a league anymore, it is a staged show for the benefit of the old firm. How can any club justify asking the paying public to hand over £400 to watch that. Roll up roll up, give us your dosh and we'll make sure this sham of a league facilitates Rangers and Celtic to carry on their rape of Scottish football, and if EVER they were to fall, we'll change the rules to make sure they cant suffer.

Grant Stott is in wrong shows me thinks, this is the real pantomime.

***Viva_Palmeiras*** · 03-07-2012 05:24 PM

I had a word with Bill who's good with words and he penned this... ;)

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Seemed rather apt.

Who want to leave it and play in a more lucrative, commercial league in another country/countries as soon as anybody will have them.

The game's admins are like abused spouses who keep coming back for more.

Yip, it is all very underhand...I wonder how long these numpties at Hampden will continue in their respective roles? Will more Clubs and Chairman like Turnbull Hutton, come out and say the games corrupt, and will they hound these jokers out?

I just about choked on my stir-fry in anticipation to what was coming up...WTF ..

***blackpoolhibs*** · 03-07-2012 05:59 PM

Jim Traynor again spouting pish, he says 2 west coast clubs will go bust if they dont get the £600k they are due in a couple of months from i think he said SKY? When pressed who the clubs were, he wouldn't say.

What a fanny.

Pretty much what Blackpool said above, claimed 3 clubs would go bust in August without £650k of Sky money, English said name them then and he clamped up and said you will read it in a decent paper, just the usual pish spouting really but English pulled him up on everything and asked him to prove it
