RANGERRAB 3,255 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 There will be a ruling that you cannot complain or take them to court or you won't be allowed to play. Blackmail, bribery and bullying is their modus operandi. Football authorities aren't above the law of the land. If they tried to prevent us playing if we took them to court I'm sure SKY might have something to say as they did last summer before the Brechin game as would the lawcourts. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,410 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 PETER LAWWELL will make a personal plea to Roy MacGregor in a bid to push through SPL reconstruction tomorrow. Ten clubs are in favour of change, with St Mirren ready to vote against and Ross County chairman MacGregor undecided. An 11-1 vote is required to push the deal through — meaning MacGregor’s vote is vital to the future of Scottish football. And Celtic chief executive Lawwell said: “I will speak to Roy, yes, if that’s what it takes. He’s in an awful position now. “Stewart Gilmour at St Mirren has been direct and clear on his views. “I don’t know exactly where Roy and County stand at this moment. They’re open to persuasion as they haven’t made their position clear. Hopefully they’ll come with us. “At the moment there would be 10 firm ‘yes’ votes, one ‘no’ and one ‘undecided’. “So what I’d be saying to Roy is that, with the greatest of respect, they are new to the SPL and the other 10 clubs have been round the block many times, been in it for long enough and been part of reconstruction and strategy talks for years. “We have the cuts and bruises. Maybe he should listen. “It’s fine being new and fresh and they’ve done well, but is that going to be his position in two, three or four years, once he has experienced it all? “There is NO threat or ultimatum here, I’d say that to Roy. “It’s about trying to get him to understand what we know and he has no reason to know because it’s all new to him. “I think there’s a lot of rationale and logic behind what we are proposing. “Hopefully we can win at the end of the day.” Read more: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...#ixzz2QO9P6bcI 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 743 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 What a disgrace. So what Iâ??d be saying to Roy is that, with the greatest of respect, they are new to the SPL and the other 10 clubs have been round the block many times So this means he doesnt have a mind for himself!! Stick to your guns County!!! We should be emailing / faxing / calling their ground telling them to vote how THEY want. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS!, who the fuck does he think he is?,what a fucking tosser. That was exactly my thoughts Ian when I read that. Hopefully the RC chairman thought that as well. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 County maybe be SPL new boys, but they have worked their way through the leagues. They probably have a better view of Scottish football as a whole, than anyone else.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigy 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 The biggest risk to the SPL is not being able to milk Rangers for TV money next season. That's the only reason they now want a single body. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebear54 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I can't ever remember seeing anything as patronising and condescending as that in the context of Scottish football. Thats quite shocking by any standard. I don't think that's the best way to go about persuading someone. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,410 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I suppose the BHEAST fans will next be threatening to boycott Ross County unless they vote for!. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
