Doncaster: "Why should 41 innocent clubs pay the price for the misdeeds of 1, so the 4th tier (Division 3) is not a viable option."

It's now effectively out of his hands. The SPL have said "No", so its now up to the SFA/SFL to sort things out.

Missdeeds of 1 Man, but dont let that get in the way of the lynching.

So it's the fault of Rangers that 41 clubs are financially reliable on Rangers? You really couldn't make it up.....

Remember we've also been blamed for making other clubs spend money they couldn't afford to try and match us in the past, so its no surprise we're being blamed for this one too.

 

If there's no SPL, I'm guessing that's the last we'll hear from Doncaster on the situation as the SFL are a separate body? Not quite sure how it concerns him from here on in, he just needs to get his own house in order.

Well at least we're guaranteed TWO games at Hampden if we end up in Div 3.
