BrigtonClyde Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 "We would like to offer our full & sincere gratitude to the Chairmen of the SFL member Clubs for allowing us entry into their league without knowing who we are or SFA membership. We will also be forever in the debt of the supporters on Pie & Bovril for allowing their Clubs leeway to vote the Club into Division 3. I am calling on all supporters of the new Rangers FC to submit handwritten letters of thanks to each and every one of these fine fellows on Pie and Bovril, & for Messrs Doncaster & Regan to make themselves available for general handyman duties free of charge around the houses of all on P&B who should require such assistance" Charles Green Esq Dont mention it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 This is HibeeJibee's game but I believe it was because Rangers share was transferred so the NewCo were still SFA/SPL members so didn't apply. So bending the rules rather than re-writing? They've 2 weeks, from today's vote, to achieve Associate Membership. Either by transferring SFA membership (and associated liability for offences?) or applying as a new entity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flash Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I wonder how long it'll take 'til the 5 Quisling are unmasked. The 5 will include abstentions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintPop Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Did someone say the newco are appealing? Seriously? Appealing against what, FFS? This must be a wind-up, surely? [and YES, I will keep calling you Shirley! ] Green sounded like he was just keen for it all be over this morning, Can't see why/how or even if they are able to appeal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Still that wee nagging doubt the SFA are going to 'intervene' here. Not sure how exactly they'd be able to justify it right enough, just a feeling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny van Axeldongen Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Now let's see them unable to fulfill their fixtures and get booted out completely. They shouldn't be in SFL3 either. Indeed. They should have been punted completely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Wow. Two posts in succession from sensible Rangers fans. Graham Roberts: "As a Gers fan, I'm delighted. No special treatment, got what we deserve. fresh start, cant wait for the season to begin!" Eddy Blair: "As a Rangers fan couldn't be more happier for Rangers getting in #Division3, rules were broken price paid #startover #bbcsportsound" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldo Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Why are some folk slagging Longmuir? Saying he's on the verge of tears etc? I thought he handled, what we say of, the press conference very well. Oh aye... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) I see. I still think other clubs should have at least been given a chance to get in. That's a downside of this, albeit, everyone knows what's going on and could've applied (as Charles Green effectively did) specutively. Does Associate Membership mean they won't be able to vote on any subsequent league reconstruction proposals? Correct, they're silent members for 3yrs.

Owsley Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Daily Record bang on the money as usual then. A few weeks ago their Monday Jury all reckoned they would be in the SPL? Could still happen I suppose but then they'd have to rebuild Hampden. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

castilla Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Good. Not going to the SPL's masterplan. They must be absolutely sick. We can now sit back, and watch the SPL and it's clubs, uphold their "sporting integrity" morals. Watch the devious move to re-structure the leagues, so that Rangers are re-admitted to the top flight the following season. Or, watch the SFA declare it null and void and admit Rangers to the SPL. Good to hear Bill Longmuir dispense with the hollow "sporting integrity" phrase. Sporting integrity is now in direpute. Well done to the SFL, they played it straight right down the line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Still that wee nagging doubt the SFA are going to 'intervene' here. Regan's bluff has been called. 11-1 and 25-5 are killer figures to defy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyderspaceman Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 That's the umpteenth time my boss has caught me on P&B today, another written warning me thinks. For your sake I hope he/she is a diddy fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
