ian1964 10,429 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 The Scottish Premier League is considering replacing Rangers with "Team X" when they publish their fixture list for the 2012/13 season. STV understands the schedule, which will be released on Monday morning, could reflect the current ambiguity over whether Charles Green's new company will be granted the club's member share of the league to participate in the competition. The SPL declined to comment on whether the fixture list will exclude Rangers when asked by STV on Friday afternoon. The current holder of the share in the league, the now Rangers oldco operated by administrators Duff and Phelps, had been given a deadline of Friday to submit overdue accounts in order to fulfill membership criteria for next season. The SPL also declined to comment on whether those had been received, while also not confirming whether an application for Green's newco share transfer had been submitted. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dutchy Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I liked the X-files initially, but the more I heard of the creator banging on in interviews, the less I found it. If fact, the only memorable thing I remember about it was the use of torches in misty darkness. Maybe the organization that is responsible for running Scottish football could shine some light on what it is they have in store for us, unless they've not decided yet what they can get away with? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigy 0 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Surely it should be Rangers as our share has been sold to ourselves? Until someone says otherwise. I anticipate a high degree of pettiness by the SPL and you know who. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,270 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Why don't just do our utmost to get out of the SPL altogether? as I said earlier they hate us. Let's see if we can apply to join the Dutch league(say start in their 2nd or 3d division) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 The Dutch wont have us, why would they ? Also, their scheduling will be due out too, just how would they manage to alter that for our sake, a foreign team looking to come into their system. One we know very little about in terms of the administration. It isnt reality I am afraid. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 There's as much chance of us joining a league in Africa or South America as there is of us joining one of the Dutch football leagues (or any other outwith the UK for that matter). None. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54andcounting 0 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I know this has been asked a million times, but WHY can we not apply to play in England? Usually the answer is UEFA don't allow cross border change in Associations. If this is the case, then can someone please explain this which can be found on wiki? One senior club based in England (Berwick Rangers) plays in the Scottish system in the Scottish Football League. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_football_league_system 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
