Would they automatically promote us ? Wonder if he SFL & SPL have even considered that ? Rather presumptious of them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 What?? 25 points? With the squad we have that's certain relegation!! Why would any Rangers supporter want to see their team hamstrung like this? SPL with no sanctions or Div 3. We have been punished enough.

Guest Borheidbear Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 We went newco and walked away from crippling debt we can't just show up in August and expect to start as if nothing happened. 15-25 point for one year will do me if we can't avoid relegation we don't deserve to be in the league. Yes, we haven't already been punished nearly enough. Tell me this, if you are 'happy' with a 25 point deduction, would it not be better just being put down to Div1 with no sanctions and get it over with? 'Don't deserve to be in the league' has got nothing to do with it, we will be relegated. Those 13 players propped up with young boys aren't good enough to make up that kind of defecit and stay up, everybody knows that, McCoist knows that. So they deserve to be relegated? These players that decided to stay and show a bit of loyalty to the cause? You would rather see them hamstrung and neutered in the SPL followed by the humiliation of relegation than compete meaningfully in a lower league?.....Seriously? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54andcounting 0 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 We won't be playing in the SPL even with a points penalty - the SPL clubs have made that clear. It's either Div 1 or Div 3. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigy1881 79 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Could this not have been said weeks ago? You would think but I am guessing it would have been out of character for the comedy that is Scottish Football. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like option being presented is first division or nothing Retweeted by Chris Graham 1st division or nothing. So blackmailing the SFL into accepting the compromise. 6 SPL clubs at risk.... and yet AT LEAST that many have said no. Yep, turkeys voting for Christmas, only in the backwater footballing nation of Scotland. I find it incredible that they would put themselves at risk. I actually agree that sporting integrity would mean us in Division 3 - but when that sporting integrity also means that HALF of your supposed top league are at risk of seeing an insolvency event themselves then putting sporting integrity before financial safety (in other words choosing financial suicide over sporting integrity) really does mean that the lunatics have taken over the asylum. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
