killingfloorman Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 How wrong is this guy? I mean the canceling of the spl sky/espn deal worth £16,000,000 per season is not really a devastating blow is it? Spl sponsers pulling out of contracts and taking millions out of the game is not a devasting blow either. Oh wait..... it is actually. You might want to note that pishy wee clubs like East fife survive because of the filtering down of the spl T.V. income. But why let reality get in the way.... You mean like the reality of having to pay your taxes? Seemed to work for your lot...... Till they died 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Time to set up a new top tier in the SFL - maybe call it the Scottish Premier Division (to set it aside from the chunts above it - they could rename themselves the Scottish Triumph Division or something ). Invites so far - Raith, Morton, Clyde, Stranraer. Have I missed anyone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordieBoy80 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Who are the other prime movers Gordie? The SFL board(at least some of them) have their fingers in the till. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I've absolutely no reason to question the information I've been passed. If it's wrong I'll hold my hands up but there's a lot more to unravel yet. I'm 99.9% certain one part of what you've been told is incorrect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanco Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 This stuff here is just the tip of the iceberg, it's not "some random" who's telling me this. I hope this isn't like Bombers "if i told you he'd be in danger" ramblings on the steps of Greyskull 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their statement is pretty strong, whilst not particularly in depth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=230889 Sevco fans' optimism is hilarious, Rangers will go into administration- Not going to read it, it'll never happen. Rangers will get found guilty of bringing the game into disrepute- Not going to read it, it'll never happen. Appeal against transfer embargo will be upheld- Not going to read it, it'll never happen. CVA will be rejected- Not going to read it, it'll never happen. Sevco application to SPL will be rejected- Not going to read it, it'll never happen. Parachute to division 1 will be rejected- Not going to read it, it'll never happen. Spartans will take the empty slot in the senior game- 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to note that pishy wee clubs like East fife survive because of the filtering down of the spl T.V. income. But why let reality get in the way.... See the Dumbarton guy that said his club losing 300 fans is no big deal in the grander picture, HE IS WRONG, 300*18*£10 =£54,000 away every season, the TV deal will only disappear for a wee while. Fuckers like you don't give a flying about any of the diddies, you're in your own wee world where only 2 teams are in the clique and only 2 teams should ever be in the clique. Apologies to the decent fans of the Rangers incarnation but this arsehole is exactly the type that has football fans like myself hating the arse cheeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBairn Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Once the SFL tidies up all the SPL/Sevco sh*t and sticks them in SFL3 or preferably nukes them from existence altogether; Regan and Donkeymaster should watch their backs. Their jobs are completely untenable and we should hunt them down and hound them out - Wickerman stylee.

kildog Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Noboby will miss kilmarnock when they die in few weeks either. Have your wee five minute of fame cause when Lloyds call in the £9,000,000 debt killie have you won't be laughing then. Even the Killie forums believe they are going to be liquidated soon and it's thanks to fools like yourself that are more interested in snide wee digs at other clubs than following your own team that caused it. So desperate are Killie right now they are begging and i mean begging Celtic fans not to boycott them, what does that tell you? Tick-tock..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sons superhero Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 but not gonna fall out with anyone over this, and I know that the Sons Trust work wonders for the club. we obviously have a different opinion, and as I've said earleir, it isn't too late to urge your board to do the right thing. It seems the vote was taken on a threats/money issue rather than sporting integrityy. Your Board must now realise the serious financial implications should a boycott occur at The Rock from fans of other clubs Over to them I hope that come friday there is a change of heart and agree their decision is based only on finance. My only concern is that you will boycott us but not the SPL Clubs instigatingthe proposal through scapegoat Doncaster. But what will be will be never mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrmad Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 My anger in relation to this is directed squarely at the SPL Chairmen and their saintly attitude that they have done the right thing while instructing their henchman to influence the SFL Vote. My anger and dismay at my board is being vented through email and trust forum. I donot agree with their stance in the vote, but i'm not going to punch them for succumbing to bullying. I have only saw about 2 posters honestly saying it's over to the SFL, and one of them is wanking himself rotten as he tours whichever country he happens to be in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sons superhero Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Pishy wee clubs survive by living within their means, unlike the club that you formally supported who died as a result of not living within their means. Well said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
