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.

Chapelhall csc
Looked out the window there. Raining. As usual. Neighbour bringing black bin in. World appears to be spinning on it’s axis. Comforting.

On Rankers Media there are no shouts for a boycott of division 3
A majority of TFOD fans wanted to go to Div 3
On whose behalf is Gordon Smith speaking on
A former CEO of the SFA promoting and instigating a boycott of member clubs of the SFA, no wonder the SFA is in crisis

Too expensive mate.
Luckily I’m not quite a tourist ;-)

Posted that vid earlier.It was covered on bbc radio ulster news at lunchtime and is going to feature on TV news at tea time
Disturbing alright ,but just an every day occurance in this wee pravince
Hun with head buried ankle deep in the sand…
“Surely we’d be the first 3rd division club to with the Scottish Cup and or League cup?
And, technically we could win the Quad this year. Division 3, Scottish Cup, League Cup & Challenge Cup?
Could it be done? ”
What happens if elbows gets suspended, who is going to play in goal, right back, centre mid, left mid, right mid, left back, centre half and in the hole?
slightly off topic but any thoughts as to why Sevco paid over £2m for (worthless) player registrations but only £1.5m for the stadium/training ground ? Linked to what BDO might do in terms of ruling the asset sale illegal ?
So secco 1690 are proposing a boycott… I’m sure Spartans have just gained a couple of votes
Stupid Stupid ex huns
Ole Subo hears the news.

Wonder how Mr Green’s backers are taking the news…
A full Ibrox park
The biggest gathering ever, of attack dogs
or as wee Gordon would say, devil dugs
lager , lager, lager
The Orange scum parading outside the Catholic Church obviously don’t want anyone to see what they are doing otherwise they wouldn’t have attacked the person filming it.
We should therefore be sharing this video with as many people as possible to show these cretins up for the Nazis they are.
Tricoloured Ribbon:
Poor Bomber might just have been repeating what he was told. Then again, maybe he just made it up; huns are good at making things up, like annual accounts and property values.
Just noticed that within the last ten minutes Newsnow has taken “rangers”out of its SPL section.
It’s high time the chairmen of the decent clubs in Scotland called an EGM of the SFA, SPL and SFL (all of them) and kicked all of these officials out.
Whilst they are in office, they know that nothing can go forward unless Club 12 is decided and all the corresponding adjustments beneath.
Kick them out NOW and take away the control of Scottish football from these psychos.
Sevco will get thier arses felt by BDO.
Blue Knighties apply for third division this season playing next.

Where are the peelers?
Well you can see them standing in the middle of the road watching them – there’s even sitting on his motorbike. A good day out for all
I see the Rangers entry in SPL Clubs for News Now has been removed.
Celtic will play Real Madrid and on the same day Sevco visit Peterhead

Is there anyone in Scotland in a position to monitor the activities of Mssrs Regan, Doncaster, Longmuir and most importantly, Ogilvie.
This week they will be working triple overtime to come up with yet another scheme to save scum FC.

#c4news tonight the fight intensifies: Scottish FA pledged to over-rule fanpower and their own clubs
Listening to the SFL statement,it appears that there will be no support from them for any SPL2,who are they gonna ask the juniors
Just watching the Tour De France and was struck by the appropriateness of the music they used to introduce a quick wee review:
“It’s been the worst day since yesterday.”
Maybe that should be on SSN instead.
