Rangers' directors throwing a hissey fit over the proposed changes to the Scottish football re-structuring. Three obvious points they've missed:
1). Under the present system, they'll win the fourth division of Scottish football this year; two more promotions and they'll be back in the SPL. Under the proposed new system, they'll win the Scottish fourth division this year - and two more promotions and they'll be back in the SPL........so what's their problem? Home crowds of sixty thousand, and record gates for all the 'little' clubs they're playing - so it's good for Scottish football and their fans are staying loyal.
2). If they resign from Scottish football, who is going to let them join their league? (Short answer - nobody: won't bother going into details).
3). If they do establish this Northern League thing, or whatever daft idea they've got in mind, are their fans going to thank them for away matches in Smolensk, Azerbaijan, Kiev, or wherever? Rangers are a club where most of there support is local to Glasgow - and most of their supporters, although the hearts might be willing, the purses would be weak - no chance of travelling thousands of miles for their away fixtures.
So - what planet are the Rangers' directors living on? They've ballsed up big time - so just get on with it, and stop making pillocks of yourselves.
