GovanAllan 0 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Matthew Lindsay @MattLindsayETSPL chief executive Neil Doncaster says 12-12-18 failed in Austria due to everyone wanting to "play the two biggest clubs in country". #spl Matthew Lindsay @MattLindsayET Doncaster adds: "We don't have that problem at the moment." Well, no we don't. So he is saying that in 3years time when we get back into the top flight this plan will not work, does this prick ever actually listen to himself. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumshie RFC 0 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The governing bodies simply making stuff up as they go along. Whatever happened to the McLeish Report? What a waste of time and money that appears to be. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 1,113 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 They are also completely ignoring the results of their own survey!!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUDE 0 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Just shows the SFA and SPL are 10 years behind Switzerland and Austria.... Which are not strongholds of football expertise themselves. Really tells a lot. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The tail is truly waging the dog. Make that tail waging the elephant. And why dont we have a vote on this? Only the other 29 member do? Even good to see McInally of Peterhead agreeing. As mentioned, its time to apply to the lower leagues down south. Id rather play Kettering town and Luton than any other SPL club....and any SFL club who votes for this jump into the bracket. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's implying we are never getting back up again, which would be an equally deranged comment 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANGERRAB 3,258 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Again I ask - have these proposed reconstructed leagues got a TV deal or new sponsors to replace the CB & Barrs Irn Bru whose deals finish at the end of the season ? if not where's the money coming from to pay all of these SFL clubs? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,416 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 EAST FIFE chairman Sid Collumbine WON’T vote for changes to come into play next season. The New Bayview chief accepts there is a need for change. But he reckons moving the goalposts midway through the campaign would leave some clubs chasing play-off spots out of pocket for nothing. He said: “As far as I’m concerned, I won’t vote for anything that changes next season. “When you start a new season you know the goalposts and to change it halfway through the season isn’t fair. “It would mean a lot of clubs have wasted a lot of money, especially if they are just going to be in the same division anyway. “If they do it for the following year, I’d be happy to vote for change. “There’s definitely a need for change, no question about it. “But I’ve spoken to a few clubs who have been spending money to try and reach the play-offs and they agree with me. “We’ve spent a bit of money trying to reach the play-offs and that would be wasted if we agree to this.” Read more: http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/4735793/Sid-aint-keen-on-quick-fix.html#ixzz2HWt1l7rA 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
