Quote: | The Scottish Lowland Football League can confirm that member clubs have voted in favour of a proposal allowing Rangers and Celtic ‘B’ teams to take part in next season’s competition – for one season only.
The meeting of clubs was called following discussions between the SLFL Board to consider the proposal.
Work now be undertaken to make the required rule changes to allow this to happen.
League Chairman, George Fraser, said: “With all proposals of this type everyone has an opinion on it, and rightly so.
“The SLFL Board discussed this proposal last week and, as we are a members organisation, it was entirely correct that this was put to the members to vote on.
“As a league we have allowed our clubs to decide based on facts, and not several pieces of misinformation being actively disseminated across many social media platforms.
“Our league is fully committed to the integrity of the pyramid and we have shown this time and time again, so any suggestion we are not is ill-judged and misplaced.
“The majority of our clubs have voted in favour of this proposal, and we need to respect that, therefore we will progress this and have further discussions with all parties in the coming days.
“Since the start of this pandemic the SLFL has operated with a view that no club should be adversely affected by the decisions we make, and we believe that this is the case with this proposal.
“With all the tier 6 leagues opting to go ‘null and void’ this meant there was no champion club put forward to join the SLFL.
“If there was then the champion club would be taking part in the SLFL league next season.”
We have made Rangers and Celtic aware of the outcome of the vote. |

Brechin who are not playing all that well, unsurprisingly find themselves a goal down to Kelty after 16' _________________ Hope he's got plenty Rovers action to comment on tonight.... |

The stats for possession, shots, could etc., make amazing reading and you have to wonder how it was only 2-1. _________________ Talk on! Talk on!

Im hoping Brechin pull it out the bag for the 2nd leg. No interest in Kelty simply because it doesn't sit right with me them just trying to buy themselves out of the league. |

I'm sure Barry Ferguson and Bob Malcolm would much rather play against Celtic Colts next year than Annan or Elgin. _________________ Dougie Hill

115 years later and it's farewell to Brechin City from the top leagues.
A late goal from Kelty sealed the tie with a 3-1 agg. win for the Fifers. _________________ Hope he's got plenty Rovers action to comment on tonight....

The Brechin player who was sent off in the first half was for using homophobic language. |

McKee should be binned by his parent club, which is Sevco, so I would doubt it. _________________ Hope he's got plenty Rovers action to comment on tonight.... |

They were last admitted to full league membership in 1953 so 68 years rather than 115 _________________ Championship Winners 2023-24 |

Either way they deserve it. They have a decent fan base (for a club down there) so it’s up to them to get behind their club as they push for a return..
Kelty on the other hand will likely be favourites for straight promotions, nothing to fear for them in League Two... |
