"walter" never signed a player for 3 years. (oh really?)all those players must have fell down the chimney with santa claus.
"walter' never got a league extension. (oh, finished on a Thursday, Why?)
"walter" left rangers in good financial health. except for the wee matter of 134 million, he did, well done walter.
"walter' doesn't do walking away, emmm, oh yes he does.

"Most chairmen of non-Old Firm clubs want a change in the voting structure of the SPL, from the current 11-1 majority required for key issues, such as distribution of TV revenue, to a 9-3 majority. Some hope that the consortium headed by Charles Green, which achieved control of Rangers last week, will agree to a pact on the voting process - which would leave Celtic as sole supporters of the 11-1 rule – before the general meeting of SPL clubs considers the application for admission by the Ibrox newco at Hampden Park on July 4.
However, if Rangers are relegated, Celtic would no longer have their Old Firm ally to veto any such proposal for change"

Correct with Aberdeen....

celtic are shamefull!!!!!! a chance to put the nail in the coffin to get one over ur rivals (are they even rivals now???? THE RANGERS) fkcing digusting .

p.s im sure the fans of celtic would deffo vote no so im not too sure why the board wont?? few tims wont be happy with abstain vote.

kille are not a football club IMO just a puppet on a string.

Mac-You cannot be demoted.

At present you are not in any league.

Its not a vote to demote you.

Its a vote to allow you to JOIN law abiding clubs in the S.P.L.(very,very unlikely) or the 3rd division(odds on)

disgusting if they only drop 1 league

DISGUSTING

Hi Plat

DISGUSTING!

May I ask what you or anyone else would see as fitting punishment for our club that was formally known as Rangers Football Club PLC?

Hi Plat

The 3rd div is where we should be (if they will have us).
It`s getting messier by the day though and to be honest the way thing`s are going, I fear for our existence.
I agree with Sea Moon Im already on win /load place but still wondering why the layers are being so generous?

Sea Moon
Nice one Plat m8.

2 from 2 as it ends on the betting front.

Scottish football chiefs agree on deal to take Rangers newco into First Division

SCOTTISH football chiefs last night shook hands on a verbal agreement that will see a Rangers newco play in the First Division next season.

But the game’s rulers will face opposition from member clubs as they try to push the deal through.

The talks involving SFA chief Stewart Regan, Neil Doncaster of the SPL and SFL top dog David Longmuir are also set to spark a major revamp of our game.

Play-offs between the SPL and SFL would return and there would also be a redistribution of TV and sponsorship money.

A joint statement from all three bodies last night stated: “Further consultation will take place in the near future, with the aim of reaching a positive outcome.”

The weekend summit meeting had mainly focused on finding an avenue for Rangers to be allowed into the First Division.

Gers face a vote on July 4 to see if their newco will be granted entry into the SPL but the bid looks doomed to failure.

Longmuir will now urge his member clubs to allow Gers to drop down just one flight.

But that won’t be straightforward as several SFL clubs will oppose the move.

Falkirk chairman Martin Ritchie has already gone public with his objections and more clubs are expected to follow.

The only way I can see this going thru is an Sky SPL 2 with more money going down to the lesser clubs

should

put them in div 3 with a ten year ban on signing anyone over 16

with no tv income until money owed by the previous company is repaid with interest to all the other football clubs they stiffed (including the non-scottish ones)

and give them a massive points ban and cup exclusion for each season they made illegal payments (so they can't be promoted for however many years they cheated for)

Rangers liquidation: Newco must forget SPL, says Gordon Smith


Published on Monday 25 June 2012 00:00

Former Rangers Director of Football Gordon Smith has called on Charles Green’s newco to withdraw its application to the SPL and volunteer to start again in the Scottish Football League First Division.

Smith said: “If I had still been at Ibrox, that is the route I would have been recommending.

“As a Rangers fan, I find it embarrassing the club has put the rest of Scottish football in this position.”

The 11 existing SPL clubs, plus Rangers, will meet on 4 July to discuss whether the so-called newco Rangers, owned by Green’s Sevco consortium, should be allowed to play in the SPL next season. If the clubs vote no Rangers would have to apply to the SFL and could begin again in the Third Division. The Scottish Football Association is currently trying to push through proposals to merge the SPL and SFL with Rangers admitted to a new First Division or SPL2.

And Smith said: “I would really like to see Rangers to make a strong statement by saying: ‘Listen, we will go down and start again’. I believe it would be a great gesture and one with real symbolism. They would be saying, we know we have done wrong and we are taking our punishment.”

Hobbits trailing behind the Jam Tarts,as usual.

Would be good if a few more of the Div 1 teams came out and joined Falkirk in their opposition to the moving of the goalposts/carve up/restructuring of the Scottish game that might allow newco to parachute into Div 1.
