    a) that was the SFL
    b) that's not a fine
     
  2. Callum CJ Laing

    Read it as SFL for some reason.
     
  3. Furball G Furball

    Sounds like a mental game at Dunfermline.

    League reconstruction voted through. Goodbye top division of 12 with 3 leagues of 10, hello top division of 12 with 3 leagues of 10.

    So excited.

    Visionaries! :Jumpy:

    So what's actually changed?
     
  7. Furball G Furball

    We're all under the one league body again, so the SPL don't have to worry about finding £2m to give the SFL as part of the breakaway settlement, nor do they have to worry about finding £1m for Rangers' TV rights.

    There's also going to be playoffs between 11th in the SPL and 2nd, 3rd and 4th in Division 1. A truly monumental change.

    There will no longer be the 2 governing bodies for league football in the Scottish Premier League and Scottish Football League and it'll be the Scottish Professional Football League. There are plans to introduce a pyramid system like England has. There will be a play off introduced between the SPL and First Division like that currently exists in the other leagues.
     
  9. Callum CJ Laing

    There are still plans to distribute more money into the other leagues. Obviously whether that'll actually mean much is another question.
     
  10. Furball G Furball

    The 2nd and 3rd divisions are getting shat on by the new proposals.
     
  11. Callum CJ Laing

    Good, they're pretty much dead weight.
     
  12. Furball G Furball

    Last I checked it wasn't the 2nd and 3rd divisions that were full of teams that were financial basket cases.

    Of course, that changes next season with Dunfermline's relegation.
     
  13. Callum CJ Laing

    Don't get high and mighty as a Rangers fan. Your club has gone to shit recently and is on a fast road back to where it was already.
     
  14. Furball G Furball

    Hibs 0-7 Malmo

    No, I didn't just make that up :D
     
  15. Callum CJ Laing

    St Johnstone through to the next round. Big scalp knocking out Rosenborg. Back them to overcome Minsk in the next round too.
     
  16. GIMH GIMH Martyn

    My mate reliably informs me that Celtic fans have been whinging on the radio this week that it's been boring for them since Rangers got the arse.

    It's almost as if they didn't see this coming
     
  17. Furball G Furball

    Hibs relegated :D

    All of that nonsense to screw us over 2 years ago, and they've ended up in the same division. Cunts.
     
  18. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Hibs to now beat rangers to the title next year imo
     
  19. Furball G Furball

    It'll be even more boring now that Hibs and Hearts have both been relegated.
