Forever Diamond Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Hmmm. I don't suppose the Dundee and Airdrie 'abstentions' were counted in the 5 votes? ie. 25 for Div3, 3 for Div1 & 2 Abstain. Meaning an aggregate ratio 25:5? My head's spinning. Airdrie voted,Ann Marie Ballantyne was there for our club.She did say we were a no before going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 This stomach-wrenching scenario is like a monster that refuses to die. As far as I see it, these are the facts: [1] despite threats and fear, clubs have collectively voted overwhelmingly against... 35-5, plus 1 abstention and the guilty party itself, voted 7/1 against an accomodation for Rangers [2] Rangers themselves have accepted their entry into SFL3, graciously, and with humility [3] even the Rangers fans overwhelmingly want entry into SFL3 [4] all other fans overwhelmingly want entry into SFL3, if at all [5] Rangers entry into SFL3 has been heralded across the domestic media, and abroad, as a matter of fact. Which it is. It has happened. It is done. People believe it is over [6] any ideas of SPL2 are opposed by those clubs within SFL required to form it, and SFL rules require they fully indemnify anyway, if resigning without 2yrs notice [7] even the First Minister of Scotland himself has said SFL3 is the right decision and the government will assist a 42-club solution going forward [8] not a scrap of material evidence has been produced demonstrating that sponsors are pulling out, even if that was the most important thing, which it isn't If against this background, Regan & Doncaster come into work at ~9am on Monday and embark upon establishing SPL2... they are insane. They work for the clubs - they have spoken. The clubs serve the fans - they have spoken. And everyone has been told. We are 2 weeks from the season starting. It is decided. It is done. Finished. Over. Leave it be. For the sake of all that is good and holy, leave it. Are we seriously to contemplate a situation where, after all that has happened and at this point in July, we'll have 2 Chief Execs... driven on by (presumably?) a handful of deranged and desperate SPL clubs... go into battle again? Go to war again to force everyone to bend to their will? Say again they refuse to accept that what's democratically done is done? It's back-to-front. It's crazed. It's insanity. It is decided. It is done. Finished. Over. Leave it be. Just leave it be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claymores Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 You know, for months I've been looking forward to and praying for this moment. One minute newco are gone, then they're saved, then they're down the shitter again, then Walter turns up, then he's not, then they're likely to be back in the SPL, then they're not, then they are, then they're down, in the first and then finally, finally in the third. However, instead of standing proud with all you guys, I feel disgusted with my own team and in the end the whole thing's just been a sickening experience with a massive kick in the baws at the end. I feel sick. I just luvs all the false hopes for the Orcs - We are the best team in the universe so: Rangers will never go bust An oil sheik will buy the word's most successful team We will be in the SPL next season Naismith is a Rangers man who plays for the jersey and will never leave We will only accept 1st if they ditch these illegal sanctions What next? Bomber will buy us for £20 mill or Di Stafano will take us to English fitba - wait for the strikethrus on those! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harp Hotel Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Has All McCoist publicly apologised to RRFC for all of the trouble and loss of money he caused due to asking for the anonymous panel to be outed? That was pretty shocking, I thought. In fact some of the language used by people in responsible positions throughout this whole affair has been beyond irresponsible, tbh. Right, I'm off to foment some social unrest on the streets of LA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBairn Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Dundee voted. Most confusing. And we were all lead to believe that Dundee and Airdrie had conflicts of interest. Nevermind, it's the result that counts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somner`s love child Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 What I find one of the most laughable things about this is the Thistle fans were probably the most vociferous of all the 30 SFL clubs about a no vote, yet it seems the club has voted yes. Why does it seem that we voted yes? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RotWeissEssen Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) For the Love of God will Doncaster and Regan GTF. (apologies for links to the Sun below. Also I think they they will be in SFL3 for sure now) Now they hope to overcome the vote by 25 of the SFL's 30 clubs to banish the Light Blues into the bottom tier of Scottish football — by creating a new SPL2 league. And there are even plans to consider reinstating Rangers to the SPL at a crisis meeting on Monday. The plans are being driven by SPL supremo Neil Doncaster and SFA chief Stewart Regan, who has said putting Rangers in the Third Division rather than the first division would bring about a "slow, lingering death" to Scottish football. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/feeds/smartphone/scotland/4428910/Rangers-vote-They-sink-its-all-over.html Also Bill Leckie now the voice of the people wtf So the blazers can scheme and scam all they like to try and shoehorn through an EssPeeEll2. Let me tell them this here and now, though: If they get away with it, THEY'RE the ones who'll kill our game. http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/4428954/Dont-let-em-shaft-us-again.html Edited July 14, 2012 by RotWeissEssen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
