I'm not up for waiting for this to all blow over before Doncaster is shown his jotters, he should be shown them now, he is shaming Scottish football - in fact I'd argue for him being hung, drawn and quartered.

So, er, Nadal out!

Yeah but I smell a rat considering Rod "Sporting Integrity" Petrie has already briefed Green on the plan, so I worry we are getting taken for a ride by the SPL. I would love to be proved wrong though.

Good statement, just missing the words "division" and "3" for me.

So rather than a vote to reject newco to the SPL, the clubs are now voting to punt them to division 1? If that is the case, I think we need some clarification on how AFC are going to vote. If they vote yes to this proposal then heads should roll.

Completely agree. Looking like a stitch up, just hope it doesn't happen.

I fear the SFA and SPL will find a way to make it happen.

Wouldn't surprise me if SPL clubs are in on this to protect finances. Definitely no season ticket for me.

Not going back if this happens: I'll be finished with the national team as well.

I bet you've heard that phrase a few times

To be fair Dave, that wasn't the slickest pun in this thread.

What songs should fill a tribute album to the liquidated Rangers? Couple of starters for 10...

That'll be him black balled.

I would've thought it would be to the benefit of Seb Coe to get rid of some of these players anyway. They need to reduce their outgoings plus they'll be in a lower league, no point in spending loads of money on wages surely!?

I heard a story that somebody walked up to him in Amadeus (the night before a Scotland game at Pittodrie many years ago) and asked for his autograph. Said person got Chick to sign a bit of paper, then promptly tore it up in his face and walked off.

It was never in doubt.

I never posted it on P&B but I lifted it from elsewhere anyway. Got to love Tomo though!

Why are we playing this after the season has started? (don't have a problem, it just seems unusual for us) I'm sure the salad bar will be popular.
