Here is my Email post to the SFA - it follows one to FIFA and UEFA
I have asked FIFA and Uefa to investigate whether the proposals are within their rules.
"Please investigate league fixing being proposed in the scottish leagues with the guidance of the Scottish Football Association in contravention of FIFA and Uefa rules."
I cannot see how a vote can be taken to introduce a new club until a vacancy has been created;
Once a vacancy occurs then the SFL should invite all applications from suitably qualified clubs.(These are the rules of the SFL)
Surely Dundee or Dunfermline need to be invited to join the SPL in advance of the SFL meeting on 13 July 2012 to allow them to accept any resignation from the SFL.
How can one particular club be favoured in this process especially when:-
a) it is still subject to an independent SFA decision on its conduct;
b) it is subject to an SPL investigation;
c) a decision on its suitability i.e. ground, players,a verifiable business plan that will allow it to fulfill fixtures for the coming season has not been made
d) the investors in the new company been not yet been vetted or identified - are they suitable and what criteria is being applied to determine this? (Surely in view of why we are in this mess in the first place this is a prerequsite?)
The SFA have a responsibility to follow all relevant football regulations and this must be the prime objective of their remit.
The proposals put forward for the SFL meeting do not follow the prime directives of FIFA and UEFA and as such are flawed.
The SFL clubs should not be put in an invidious position to vote for motions that have been brought forward in contravention of higher authorities.
