SPL pushes for reconstruction next year â?? but with no place for Rangers

[bossy 0]

All the SPL are doing is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

 

They can reorganise and reorganise but they still do not have a product that is especially attractive. The reality is that Scottish football needs some major surgery if it is to be viable going forward. In fact, I would suggest that we can only really support one league at the senior level; two clubs in Glasgow, one in Edinburgh, one in Dundee, one in Fife, one in Ayrshire, etc. etc.. The rest should be playing junior football with the possibility of some being 'farm' teams for the big clubs.

 

If the SPL/SFA are not up for real reform then they need a dose of reality. The truth is that there are two clubs which dominate Scottish football and maybe four others that generate some interest. The TV contract which is vital to the financial health of SPL clubs is only viable if it includes Rangers. If Rangers are able to scupper the TV deal - as promised by Green - the SPL are in deep doo-doo.

 

The SPL need to wake up and smell the coffee. The continued antagonism towards Rangers will cause them more harm than it does good. And it isn't hurting Rangers anymore. If Celtic season ticket sales take a hit next summer - and their attendances this season suggest that this might well happen - then watch for the SPL party line to start changing. And, if that happens, watch Charles Green extract his pound of flesh.

"Rod?"

"Yes, Peter?"

"Fetch the Mr Sheen and a shammy. I've left a nice, steaming turd on your desk. Get polishing."

"Yes, Peter. Right away. Thank you, Peter"
