onevision 1,569 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I think this could lead to the EPL2 being formed with us and them being invited. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexscottislegend 2,320 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 The money gap is now so huge that there is really no future in Scottish League now. We must find a way of allowing a 'B' team to play in Scotland; that would be a kind of sweetener to those who need our income. Problem is EUFa with their 'cross border' opposition would be the big obstacle. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which Rangers would you go to watch on a Saturday given the proposal in the article is for more matches to be played on that day ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, pretty much like some people go to reserve matches because they can't afford/don't want to attend away games. If, say the A team were playing in Bournemouth many might go to Ibrox to see the B game. Haven't really thought it through, but I would not like the Scottish League to die all the same... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,723 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I have always been against moving out of Scotland,for the sake of Scottish football,but now I don't give a flying fook about Scottish football I would love for this to be true so we can get away from the hatred that is Scottish football,leave them to rot!. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabiDuck 89 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Many in Scottish football have been quite vocal in not wanting us. Give them what they want! I'm a Rangers fan living in the Leeds area so the chance to see my team playing at Elland Road, Oakwell, Keepmoat, Vaqlley Parade or the KC stadium etc seems good to me! I like the idea of the B team in the Scottish league playing alternate weeks (more or less) at Ibrox and away, though there's an impact on the playing surface from such heavy usage potentially... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TotalFootball 0 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I hope we leave and the rest of them end up playing out a TNS style existence. I don't think it'll happen for a number of reasons and I'd be delighted if it did. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 The difference here is that the addition of 6 teams removes the "Turkeys voting for Christmas" scenario. The thing that would bug me a wee bit is that after climbing back to the top in Scotland we'd have to start all over again in the "UK" league. Seeing as we voted to stay in the UK, I think we should have a UK league - it should have been part of the deal. Scottish football is moribund and no longer fit for purpose. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacK1950 2,376 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Would probably have to give up my season ticket as price would increase dramatically and also would not be able to go to away games with cost of travel,digs etc.It would be a sad day. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
