weeyin Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Nowt much mate! Charles Green is gonna let 'I can't believe its not rangers' play in the spl, say sorry, pay a couple of bills and take a points hit to save us all from oblivion. A few chairmen are already inside apparently. Things should all be ironed out lovely by the time you get back. (check out the 'Rainjurs Debacle' thread) Apart from one minor detail* I agree with the the majority of Green's ideas such as voting reform and more equal distribtion of revenues. So let's push ahead with them. * the one detail being newco allowed to play in the SPL which I'm sure we can exclude from the package.

Jay Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Regan has apparently claimed six clubs are at risk of going to the wall without Rangers starting in the First Division next season (and presumably in the SPL at all costs the following season). So that's either absolutely bullshit or we have a top flight where 50% of the clubs are so badly run that they'd cease to exist upon relegation. If it's the latter (which I doubt), then it's their own faults and shouldn't be an excuse for blatant corruption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well Well Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 The SFL teams should just say.. no to this shit..!! back to you Doncaster and the SPL to deal with your own fuckup, fuck all to do with the SFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Turnbull Hutton tells them straight. Well worth watching the video. Raith Rovers director Turnbull Hutton says clubs in the Scottish Football League are being "lied to, bullied and threatened" by the Scottish FA and Scottish Premier League to accept a newco Rangers into the First Division. Hutton says the attempts to force teams to bypass a formal application process for Charles Green's company are "corrupt", following threats that finances from the SPL would be cut off and a breakaway league formed. He said: “It is not an SFL issue. We’ve been lumbered with this. There are rules we feel they should be followed. They [newco Rangers] should apply for the Third Division. “[We are being] bullied, railroaded and lied to. We are being lied to by the Scottish FA and the SPL. We are being threatened and bullied. It is not football as I know it. “It was a ridiculous document which came out last week whereby the threat was there that if you don’t vote for an acceptance into the First Division, a breakaway SPL2 will come along and those who didn’t vote wouldn’t be invited. “What kind of game are we running here? It is corrupt.” When asked if he agreed with the SFL’s assertion that Scottish football would face financial meltdown without Rangers, he replied: “I don’t believe that.” The 30 member clubs of the SFL are meeting at Hampden on Tuesday to discuss proposals which would see Charles Green’s newco parachuted into the First Division, as opposed to applying to enter at Third Division level. A presentation sent out by the league to its members last week warned £16m could be wiped out from the Scottish game if Rangers had to play in the bottom tier. It promised an additional £1m would be divided amongst clubs in TV money if the club were to participate in the First Division, with play-offs and a change to financial distribution also proposed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Pretty big accusation that one. Indeed. My first reaction was "nonsense". Still is to be honest. However, if you'd told me when Rangers first went into administration that over the course of the few months we'd have full-blown corruption and blackmail unfolding before our eyes, John Brown would be standing outside Ibrox giving speeches like a jakey having a nervous breakdown, and Craig Whyte's tax advisor would turn out to be a porn star, I'd have said "nonsense" as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes two seconds to get a blog online and would have taken anyone 5-10 minutes to type up that blog. However, as you say, it's from someone who is always about when it comes to Scottish football issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nethertonwellfan Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 That sounds mental. What would Boyle have to gain really from that? Not facts and names to suggest it has much too it.
