thelegendthatis Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) If you want to join in getting your message across have a look at http://honestyinsport.weebly.com/ For those who feel strongly it would be good if they sent E mails to the SFL offices, with copies to SFA and SPL saying what we want. The heading needs to be for "For the attention of Brechin" or whatever. A separate email for each club chairman! Use your own words for the email if you want. I have chosen videos which demonstrate honesty to be attached to the email to make sure they get there ok. If we can get a few thousand emails going it should be significant enough to make them pay attention If you belong to a club forum/board please post a link up there. The more who can hit them over the next 24 hours with emails and files the stronger the voice.

denltfc Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 who is in charge at Clyde ? They seem to be very on the ball. Surely counter proposals have been lodged by various SFL clubs by now. Can standing orders of tomorrows meeting be suspended and counter proposals raised ? Also how long did the SFA/SPL have to give notice to the SFL clubs of their new proposals ? Anyone with Knowledge of the rules,standing orders etc Might want to make a sticky so people know how the meeting will run and how votes can be called and carried out. It will save a tonne of queries over the next 24 hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Dogma Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 It may be a multi-stage process but it should have went like this: 1. SPL refuse transfer of share 2. SPL ask SFL for permission to promote one of the SFL clubs. 3. SFL grant or deny permission. 4. SFL promote relevant clubs and invite applications for the space in SFL3 5. Spartans, Sevco and any others apply. 6. SFL decide who to admit. Where in this process does SFA need to get involved, bribes required etc. I totally agree but that doesn't mean we should all start panicking...just we need to address every stage as it appears and forensically root out the lies as we have been doing and allow fan power to do its thing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 You must have read on here that Sevco might still be smuggled into the SPL. An application to the SFL would get in the way of that. Sevco have not, yet, applied for entry to the SFL (I think). So the vote tomorrow is little more than the SFL clubs being asked a hypothetical question or two then is it? I read the scaremongering on here that Sevco could be smuggled back into the SPL but that would be suicide for the SPL clubs, season tickets sold after the vote to dismiss Sevco's application could easily be claimed back and if clubs were to fight it in court they'd end up paying expenses too, perfect case for a group action against the SPL itself too. Not to mention the lost revenue from casual customers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattBairn Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Clyde are doing a fantastic job. They're actually making clubs who say they'll vote 'yes' look utterly clueless. I'm very impressed with them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambos Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) Why the f**k is this all being left to Clyde FC to make intelligent, arse kicking statements? Are there really no other clubs who can do something like like this? Clyde have made two statements that make the declaration of Arbroath and Declaration of Independence look like the lyrics for a boyzone song and no other SFL club has followed suit. The best part for me is the ludicrousness of being asked to vote on a club admission and being given absolutely no information on it. If it wasn't so anger inducing, I'd laugh. PS. Give Dundee the SPL spot, then have them swap places with Clyde. Edited July 12, 2012 by Jambos 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Right, a few people have had a blast at these but as of 3pm this afternoon, this seems to be the decisions clubs will taking towards proposal number two - allowing the SFL board to put Sevco into the First Division for the new season. Definitely No Dunfermline Athletic Livingston Raith Rovers Greenock Morton Cowdenbeath Arbroath East Fife Annan Athletic Berwick Rangers Clyde Elgin City Peterhead Queen's Park Stranraer Stirling Albion Definitely Yes Stenhousemuir Brechin City Did announce 'No', proposals may have effect Falkirk Partick Thistle Hamilton Academical Undecided Albion Rovers - potentially leaning to yes? Dumbarton - were yes, being revised. Ayr United - chairman Cameron Lachlan seemed opposed, rumours on Ayr's forum suggest a yes vote could be forthcoming Forfar Athletic - non-committal statement Queen of the South - non-committal statement Alloa Athletic - a potential no? East Stirlingshire - statement thanking fans for their views, refusing to disclose how they will vote. Montrose - deafening silence? Won't be Voting Dundee Airdrie United Which means, if my take on club's positions are correct, it's 15-2 to the good guys, with three who were originally 'no', eight undecided's and two abstentions. It's looking good thus far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever Diamond Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 On the 12th of July, Rangers did die. Don't be so hasty,news is the big guy and his white horse are on their way to Ibrox to save them as i write. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyarabnuts Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Another fucking wonderful statement from Clyde. Best bit for me is the part in bold. agreed it shows what a ridiculously insane situation the renegan and cockwomble have landed on the clubs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I've seen a few places saying Queen's Park are a definite no... Have I missed a statement? I've not seen anything about their intentions at all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Here's a warning for Brechin City - if you think voting 'yes' will one day lead to you reaching the SPL yourselves. Think again. The SPL will bring in a rule whereby your hedge must be amended to form 6,000 of these, they must be under cover, and they all must have under-hedge-heating installed. Vote 'no'. It's for the best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black sapper Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Last week I was heading for the juniors next season but after that last statement I might become a Clyde supporter. (and me from a Thissell family too ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dungolfin Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Having read what's on offer I am fairly relaxed about the outcome of the SFL vote. There is no way on God's green earth that anyone with half a brain could endorse these proposals. There is nothing here that could be remotely described as increasing the lot of any clubs in the SFL and furthermore there's big red warning stickers all over it with their insistence that none of this is binding. In fact I'd go so far as to say that should SEVCO be admitted to the 1st division then half the proposals will be thrown out at the first opportunity. This is less like the dangling carrot we were anticipating and more like a bit of poo on a stick with the powers that be hoping that if they wave it about fast enough we'll think it's chocolate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 who is in charge at Clyde ? They seem to be very on the ball. Fans, when it comes down to brass tax. They're a CIC (Community Interest Company), a form of social enterprise. Surely counter proposals have been lodged by various SFL clubs by now. Telegraph said Clyde proposed an amendment but it was "dismissed"; however, it's not been reported elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the lost revenue from casual customers. Let me put it another way - how can a club apply for membership to the SFL when they don't have a name and don't exist? They have not, yet, applied. Everything that has happened to date has been at Doncaster and Regan's bidding (and certain SPL clubs, no doubt). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackie The Staggie Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Proposal made to SFL. Eh??? This it??? Really??? ======== In the event that a final decision is not reached by 30th November 2012, the Scottish FA will seek to implement a new structure in time for the 2013/2014 season. The members of the working party including Chairman will be announced in the near future and will ensure consultation with all stakeholders prior to final recommendations being made. I might be reading this wrong, but is this bassically saying that if you fail to make a descision (that they agree with) then we will basically push through the changes we want next season. In essance could they be threatening to restructure the league in such a way that Sevco FC play in a top league next season? Also 30th Novemeber.....delay to season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
