Oh dear, dear dear... still spouting ra peoples rubbish. Still blaming the latest guy on the block, no contrition for the wrongdoings of the past and a dig at the surviving member of the Old Firm.:rolleyes:

Which Celtic consipiracy theory are you referring too? Jim Farry? Bobby Tait? The Bank of Scotland calling in the receivers for a Â£4.5m overdraught at a time when Rangers owed ever more?(rose to Â£70 million eventually and still no move to call in the receivers). It was the Celtic fans who came to the rescue of the club, something the ex-Rangers fans couldn't even attempt because they're still convinced there'll be a benevolent billionaire, with off the radar wealth coming to the rescue

One week, Uncle Wattie's cardigan is riding into save the club..... the next one of your colleagues might be knocking on his door ;)

Well looks like they will not be getting into the first division either

Good. SFL3 here we come.

If Motherwell reckon they received the most money from visiting Rangers fans, they provided the same as the 9 diddy teams put together, then I can see Aberdeen and Kilmarnock being in the same boat and being in serious trouble when the accounts get done.

They'll miss the vast amounts of money that the travelling support bring. :no: In the short term the directors will possibly miss any shortfall from sponsorship but real football fans are looking forward to all teams having a fair chance when the competition begins.

What there is at the moment is a dodgey Yorkshireman without enough players to make a team and no SFA licence. Not even applied yet and the Friday deadline is looming.

I admire your optimism about entry into SFL3. The SFA, SPL and SFL are doing everything possible to allow Chucky to get a team in a league for next season. Less than 4 weeks until the first SPL team starts it's season and we still don't have a proper fixture list. Maybe a year out was Chucky's plan all along!

If they get a team for the start of the season in any league I reckon there is more chance of Servo going into admin / liquidation than any other team.

At least Chucky Green doesn't have a high wage bill to worry about this week, although he'll need to sell a few more season books to cover the wages of McCulloch and Lee Wallace, not to mention Ally's pie bill ;)

The figures don't stack up, just as they didn't 20 years ago. but this time there's no benevolent Bank to fund the fantasies.

Best not to mention the possiblility of the reconvening of the appelate panel that could lead to a year out anyway.

as long as celtic are stuck in scotland....in the meaningless league known as the SPHell...i'm happy.

they would not last 1 game when the good folk hear what is sung outside the grounds in bars clubs never mind inside and im a staunch Glaswegian supporter on 1 half of the old firm ,never never never would that be tolerated and quite rightly so ,were not Scotland's shame for nothing ,EPL has enough idiots without the old firm ,only extreme nationalists or republicans in England would relish the thought.

Please don't even go there ....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

Re: Would you like to see Celtic and Rangers in the English league?

It's only 22 idiots etc.....:D

Re: Would you like to see Celtic and Rangers in the English league?

the hypocricy of celtic is staggering...on the one hand they go on and on about how rangers should be made to start in division 3,as it would be unfair to allow them to stay/start in the SPHell.yet on the other hand state that celtic should start in the championship as they are a "great" and "huge" club,jumping ahead and over hundreds of more deserving ENGLISH clubs......tell them to [Mod Edit - inappropriate words removed] not wanted,not needed,not liked,not english.
