A massive NO.

If The Rangers are in the SFL1, I will not go to any of the 4 games against them.

I heard that Livingston will sue if they are allowed into the first. They have a valid case IMO.

From a personal point of view it's a no from me. They get into the third and they can count themselves lucky IMO.

The people in power must make an example of rangers. To do otherwise will only give the green light to others.

Having club debt is not an offense in itself.............but how much and by what methods it was accumulated must be investigated.

Murray and whyte need to be punished for their wrong doings.....as must be the club.

There is no "newco" its the old gers that have gotten rid of debt by ....imo, illegal means, and they just resurface under a new (ish) name.

Its gotta be an application to the 3rd and for once,hopefully, money will not speak................although I doubt it, they'll be back Crying or Very sad

Unequivocal NO. Even although the fans of the dead club said they won't attend away games of the new club, you can bet that many of the local bigoted knuckle draggers will find their way into Stark's Park for a kick off time that will be decided by a satellite TV company, who probably couldn't even point to Kirkcaldy on a map. Let them apply to div 3 then vote in Spartans.

No No No - get this lot into the 3rd where they deserve to be (just) - hopefully the SFL chairmen will see sense not smell a couple of quid.

From a moral point of view, most certainly no. We battled long and hard last season to retain our precious place in this league, I'd be fizzing if a place can be handed out willy nilly.

However, we are very likely to lose Dunfermline ( a much needed source of income) - so I can actually see our board voting yes to this.

I have polled "no" but what are the concessions that a couple of guys have polled yes for? Compensation for the loss of income from two home gates if either Dundee or Dunfermline are not in SFL 1? Banning Rangers fans from SP? To be honest, I feel sorry for the clubs of any division that have to put up with he increased cost of security when Rangers come to town. By the way - I deliberately do not use "Newco" - this is Glasgow Rangers in sheep's clothing.

Good to see they haven't put money before integrity. Laughing
Well done the Board.
