somner`s love child Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Given that Cosgrove has stated that this forum ( along with our non Newco counterparts) contains wide and specialised knowledge of all things football, does anyone know of any SFL rule which would allow them to veto a constitutional vote held by the 30 SFL members. I thought that their remit began and ended with their licensing of member clubs. It must be fanciful in the extreme to think that they could even be involved in the setting up of an SPL2 which has absolutely nothing to do with them. Someone really has to take Regan to task for this stuff, it`s as bad as the rioting in the streets nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Queen of the south to issue statement in tomorrows standard. Apparently Mr Hewitson isn't overly happy, with the SFA/SPL/SFL over the threats being made Please QOS, vote no Justice for the 41 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The SFL season starts in about four weeks. The SFL vote is over a week away. For anyone who thinks that in the event of the SFL not allowing newco into Division 1, there will be an SPL 2 in place in time for next season I have the following advice: Get your head out of your arse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blanco Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Exactly. If it were true that the SFA can impose a decision on the SFL, why can't they impose a decision on the SPL? This is a gamesmanship and, unfortunately, Stenny have bought it hook line and sinker. It's a similar scenario playing out as with the SPL vote, we're going to have a week of 'Armageddon' threats from those who want the status quo (queue a plethora of suitable song titles) and those who can see a better way for Scottish football. The SFL chairmen are far from stupid and any threats of armageddon or hells fire raining down on them if newco aren't pushed into SFL1 simply won't wash with them. If they get offered a big enough bribe to let sevco in the first then they'll be there but until that point it'll be a resounding no, it's just a matter of how much people want sevco in the 1st. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The SFL season starts in about four weeks. The SFL vote is over a week away. For anyone who thinks that in the event of the SFL not allowing newco into Division 1, there will be an SPL 2 in place in time for next season I have the following advice: Get your head out of your arse. pre-fucking-cisely. It's an empty threat. Several clubs have come out post interview and said no, several said no before hand too. Rangers will be in division 3 next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beermonkey Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 If the SFL starts in 4 weeks time cant we just delay the announcement till................ i dunno About 3 & half weeks time? Let's see the c***s cobble together a team in 3-4 days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Nederlander Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 This £15.7m .... does that take into account the £2m that the SPL have decided they won't bother paying the SFL clubs ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) i have no idea atall but according to longmuir in the video i posted up earlier from stv they can overturn or push through what they want Your obviously more willing than I am to buy into the bullshit. Firstly, I'm not sure they have the powers. Secondly, I would imagine even if they have the powers these could be subject to challenge on an appeal to UEFA. Thirdly, whilst I don't know the procedures I'm fairly sure the SFA board is elected by (and therefore, you would imagine, accountable to) the Scottish football clubs. Fourthly, would any club dictated to by a body whose representatives they elected br willing to be dictated to by that body? Fifth lay, even if they had the power and the inclination they simply would not have the time. It is a threat and we, and I mean we as the people who are vital to Scottish football, need to be challenging this nonsense rather than acquiescing.

Iain Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The SFL really should be consulting lawyers now about how to get their £2m. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
