The Scottish Football League today placed an upper limit on which division Sevco can play in next season – their Third. We must now wait on the company providing sufficient information to complete their application to the SFL and for membership of the Scottish FA. Although many Rangers fans want Sevco to join the Third Division, chief exec Charles Green was clearly hoping to start life higher up the food chain.
The overwhelming nature of this verdict indicates the solidarity between clubs and fans, throughout the divisions, on how our sport is governed. This is a good thing but it leaves one burning question on the table:
Is the Scottish Premier League insolvent?
Last week SPL chief exec Neil Doncaster told SFL clubs that the Premier League would be unable to meet its contractual obligations if they did not vote Sevco into the First Division. Unless this was a shameless lie designed to bully clubs into giving Doncaster what he wanted, the Scottish Premier League Ltd should seek to appoint an administrator without delay.
You can ignore comments about league reconstruction at some unspecified point in the future, Doncaster told us last year that “those who want 16 teams in the top flight are deluding themselves.”
The Scottish Football League does not need the SPL, or its money, to continue to thrive as a community-based sporting entity. They will flourish. What happens to the SPL remains to be seen.
As we have observed once or twice before, M. Platini, where are you? We need the football world to assist with the survival of the game in one of its historic heartlands.

Smudgers shameful, disregard and damning of the so-called ‘small’ clubs last night, has at least bit him on his bony blue erchie………………..
…arrogant hunned-up, disgrace………..
…….words fail me.
Alloa Chairman pulls no punches!!

#SSN sources understand the issue of the possible re-admittance of “Rangers”/Rangers newco into the SPL will also be on the agenda

I know, sorry.. my parents attended on my behalf…. o))
Wishart and Duffield.
That’s Clyde’s idea of a balanced and impartial panel.
On the other hand, it is good to hear their pain.
Good day so far
Poor Ernie,what can he moan about now
Anyway I have been told that a horse called O’Gorman is expected to win the 7.05 at Chester
Bhoys the main questions now are will they be able to field a team for Div 3 (snigger) in time for the start of the season? How may Hundead have bought a SB to watch the Newco in Div 3 – not too many i hear. If they no money how can they possibly be allowed to play football at any level?
The Sleekits really should think about their Division 3 dhignity………

As I understand it, todays vote was to see if Sevco can be fast tracked into Div 1. The ‘No’s’ had it.
I do not believe todays ‘No’ vote automatically grants them access to Div 3.

no prospect of that, it’s div3 at the best :-)
Spike in SFL3 penalties and red cards predicted for this season.
Sevco is not a member of the SFA yet.
This is the trip wire.
They cannot do anything about that.

I knew there was a reason why the sleekit SPL barstewards refused to transfer the former Rangers SPL share to another club before today`s meeting….I fully expect the SPL to attempt to vote Sevco into the SPL on Monday.
We owe Craig Burley a big thanks for his disgraceful condemnation of the “wee diddy clubs” in his column in a Sunday rag last weekend.
Rankgers get their wish to play in england! Berwick rangers away!!

Ibrox Park Oh Hello!
MWD – you’re heading for a lifetime ban….! lol
BT – ha more than my parents did. Think there was a party in our house, but I was tucked up in bed like any other 3 year-old.
T4
charles paterson was sitting with neil doncaster and iain blair(?) at lunch today in hampen – all pally pally
Sky Sports would like to apologise to all subscribers for wrongly advertising they could watch Ran*ers in 3D. They meant Ran*ers in D3.
So as it looks likely that it is Div 3 for the Newco will the few remaining experienced players now ‘walk away’ from the festering corpse of Rangers 1872. That is about from old ‘loyal’ elbows
Does anybody know when the Nuclear – Flight parks its bahooky ootside the Big Hoose ?
or apart from even -dooh
And to think some people think this has been a terrible summer.I only wish my father and mother had lived to see this day!!
will the football coupons still leave out SFL3 in preference of the N Power championship?
My apologies, it is 3.30 in the morning here, that last post should have read…

Duffield losing the plot.
Oh the dignity.
Wiggy delusions on SSb :o)))
Listen to wiggy talking total tosh daft hurting silly child . “Rangers div three” is an anagram of “rather deserving”
Now for Reporting Scotland.
Boy on Clyde is going to town with Gordon Smith. Smith is digging a massive, massive whole here. Bhoy is keeping his cool, giving him enough rope. Smith is losing it.
Lovely stuff….
Wiggy being destroyed on Snyde ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Brilliant call on clyde.

Just of the phone to Kit 37mins we talked,I’m glad he phoned me.I haven’t had my tea as yet may not have any,just had a look at my mails and there has been 27 since Kit phoned,I notice a few from you,and a good few from Vancouver,Half my family are out there,must take time to answer them.
This day is weird in some ways,when was the last time there were no Rangers in the top division,what a birthday present for anyone,I may have wished that over many years, and the man above has granted me my ul(tim)ate wish.
speak laters.
Apologies again and my last attempt…
