Despite of the most intense lobbying and doomsday predicting from chief executive, Neil Doncaster, SPL clubs have “overwhelmingly” voted ‘No to Newco’, finally rejecting the bid by one of Charles Green’s Sevco companies to form a team and gain access to the SPL.
This is the conclusion of what only last month looked like an unlikely grass-roots campaign which left several reluctant clubs with little choice but to accept the wishes of their supporters.
Neil Doncaster’s position is compromised after his ‘there is little difference between a CVA and liquidation’ campaign, as he contorted to win support for new rules which would make it easier for him to meet revenue targets.
The right conclusion has been reached. Well done to all.

Hi
Roon THEMS!

Come on who voted yes and who voted no?
Those who voted no (I predict 1 team other than an old football club – Killie!) are going to be boycotted by the Celtic faithful next season I assume!

Oh glorious day! No Sevco in the SPL.

GIRUY ya monkeys.
Get it right up them…. Still stranger things can happen….. Did I make top ten
Yankee doodle dandy! Died on the 4th of July!
Doncaster must go
No to any Newco that doesn’t have to get down on its knees and beg to be allowed to start again by beginning at the very ,very bottom.
For information.
Rod Petrie is being unfairly characterised on CQN IMO.
I have it on A1excellent authority that RP was a driving force in the SPL ‘say NO’ chairmen discussions.
In fact I posted this the day before clubs started to come out publically declaring NO.
Trust me on this..
11-1 defeat , the kind of result Newco may become accustomed to…

Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m the unseen fenian hand
I’ve been around now since 94
Stolen every huns soul and faith
And I was round when David Murray
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Watty
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you
Is an honest Scottish game
I stuck around like a rabid dug
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed Zsa Zsa and his administrators
Hugh Dallas screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a generals rank
To the marble stair case
The footbal bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what’s puzzling you
Is an honest Scottish game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the Rangers?
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I’m the unseen fenian hand
And I laid traps for hacks & spvis
Who got killed on St. Valentines day
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what’s puzzling you
Is an honest Scottish game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what’s confusing you
Is an honest Scottish game
Just as John Grieg is a criminal
And all the tims are saints
As heads is tails
Just call me lucifer
Cause I’m in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I’ll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But what’s puzzling you
Is and honest Scottish game, um mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me hunny, what’s my name
Tell me hunny, can ya guess my name
Tell me hunny, what’s my name
I tell you one time, you’re to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
What’s my name
Tell me, hunny, what’s my name
Tell me, hunny, what’s my name
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Maybe next time…
So how did the voting go?
Was it 11 no to 1 yes?
If it was more than 1 yes I think Ally McCoist should demand to know who these people are.
Who is it we play on boxing day Dundee or The Pars

How did our esteemed leaders vote

No to Newco Day?
Will July 12th 2012 become for ever known as Iain Archer Day?
Cmon the SFL clubs! Hold your nerve!
You mean they voted ‘No’ without a public statement from the Celtic board?
Shocking … !

P.S. ALLELUIA
Doncaster’s plea for more time was clearly defeated. He has lost the confidence of clubs – I hope he will be writing his resignation letter as soon as the meeting is over.
I’m assuming the YES vote came from Hun IA?
Scene set nicely for a 12th July final death scene!
A lifetime in football waiting for this day to come!
HH! x 1888 !
Is it to early in the day to have a wee Jameson
Cant wait to see sevco’s fixtures.ha ha ha.thats if they’ve got any…
Jabba……girfuy ya hun bam!

Fantastic day for Scottish Football, integrity over greed.
The MSM will go into overdrive now for next week’s vote to convinve the SFL Chairmen that Division 1 is the only answer now, lets see what that brings.
Good to be a Celtic supporter anyday of the week but American Independence Day will furthermore always be known in future as No to Newco Day!
Hail Hail!

Where are you guys getting the voting figures from … ?
