Still bitter after 80 years?

Exactly. It seems it's an SFA instruction they've (allegedly) ignored, not a WOSFL one.

United's last decent strip was in 1969. Orange and black is a horrible downmarket combination.

That's not a perfect pyramid - it's a triangle. A pyramid is three-dimensional.

Tax evasion is everybody's business. Every honest tax-payer is a victim.

But the old Rangers paid £millions in an illegal tax-evading scheme, and were found to have "gained no competeitive advantage".

Especially on Tuesday evenings.

So Hearts and PT will have to go before an SFA panel to explain why they went to court. Answer - "We didnae trust an SFA panel". That will go down well.

No, he didn't. He said that "delaying action unit reconstruction couldn't happen" was reasonable and hadn't damaged their case, but that they went about things the WRONG way by going to court at all. That's why it's now subject to arbitration.

The SFA is the governing body for all football in Scotland. In which parallel universe would it NOT be under her jurisdiction?

I've just read the rules. They are only responsible "before, during or at the close of a match". Certainly not in the middle of the close season.

Apart from the virus crisis, non-league seems to be in pretty good health, except the WOS where you imagine there's a problem.

Have I missed several promotions?

Can you name anyone at Ibrox who is clever enough for that? He or she has been conspicuous in his absence for the past decade.

If your team is massively weaker than last season you'll be lucky to avoid relegation to L1.

But Shirley .... it's not something the LL can change unilaterally?

Clydebank 1989?

Clydebank 1965?

Sorry, did I imagine reconstruction being explored (by a group led by Successful Businesswoman Ann Budge), but rejected by the league membership?

Bullies tend not to pick on people bigger than themselves.

No, AFAIK there's no libel in Scots Law. They may be "defamatory".

You can repeat it as often as you like, but the SPFL is NOT a private club. It is a limited company. Rules 49(b) seems to give the panel the necessary powers: "The tribunal's award may ... order a party to do or refrain from doing something (including ordering the performance of a contractual obligation"

There's been nothing to stop the top junior teams applying for membership of the Scottish League over the last 100 years, when vacancies occurred.

Do exactly the same? Die while striving for an unachievable objective?
