blanco Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 You're assuming that the money would be reinvested in sports, I'm sure SKY could use the funds elsewhere to greater effect. Tbh though, I'd rather watch Sunday morning show jumping than the SPL if given the choice. horse lovers central for this pish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doink Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Annan will be in the No camp. The Chairman said a couple of weeks back that he would want to vote in a team i.e Spartans.All friends since EOS days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hipster Dufus Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 That is a very interesting document which, for the first time i think, puts some science behind a lot of the speculating and scaremongering. Someone smarter than me will hopefully be able to pick out the juicy bits and summarise. More average match viewers than La Liga by nearly double is a surprise. So how do they actually come up with those viewing figures? Does it take into account folk Sky+ing it to watch later? How do you gauge how many people are in a pub watching it? Electrical surge for folk at half & full time getting the kettle on? What about gas cookers? etc,..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartans have already said that they wouldn't apply to join the SFL at the same time as Sevco. I'm not sure if other previous applicants like Cove Rangers or Edinburgh City intend to apply either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vambo57 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 If you think Scottish football is messed up, you should see what's happening in the USA. What the f**k is going on there? Can someone please explain? I know the swastika was a peace symbol, but what about the rest? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 So of the thirty SFL clubs, the situation is this: Won't Vote Over Conflict Of Interest: Airdrie and Dundee. Down to 28 voting. No SFL1 Parachute for the Orcs: Annan Athletic, Clyde, Dunfermline, East Fife, Morton, Peterhead, Raith Rovers, Stirling Albion, Stranraer. 19 left to get their 16 from. Dithering but likely to be burnt at the stake by their fans if they vote "yes": Albion Rovers, Berwick Rangers, Brechin City, Stenhousemuir 15 left to get their 16 from! Likely To Vote Yes Despite Denying Any Decision Has Been Made: Partick Thistle Needing 15 from 14 left. They've had it! You forgot Falkirk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 No coincidence that the non apology was made today, giving the media and those blazers in positions of influence a reference point to beat the SFL/SPL Chairmen with Just when you thought they couldn't sink any lower lower too. This should hopefully make the SFL chairmen's decision that little more easy now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingrodent Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Turnbull Hutton is spot on here. Ignoring laws and wrongdoing for personal benefit - especially financial benefit - is well within the dictionary definition of "corruption". When he calls the clubs and organisantions pushing this attempt to save RFC "corrupt", he's not exaggerating for effect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it would be nice to see the rules updated to prevent any shareholdings in competing clubs in the future. It's the Jim Ballantyne quote that got my eyebrows raised. It's typical of that w****r, but even so - when faced with Alex Thomson, saying anything that enforces the belief that cronyism is alive and well within the SFL isn't best policy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillieJimbo Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I can't see them getting enough votes even at 50%. Here's hoping that the SFL chairman are so pissed off with Doncaster's bullshit that they'll just decide they don't want Newco in Div 3 either. The top result is still within our grasp. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
