Rangers/Newco

I wasn’t sure if I should write a piece on this, giving that the club I support has done all they can for the moment to have their say in the situation.

Dundee United were the second SPL club to publicly come out and confirm they would vote no to Sevco’s appeal to transfer the now defunct Rangers F.C. share in the SPL to themselves, allowing the newco to start their life in the top division.

Fan power throughout the SPL helped convince 10 of the 12 to vote no with the only exceptions being Rangers, who voted yes, and Kilmarnock who abstained.

But I have decided I will go ahead with this one, as I am a fan of football and a fan of the wider Scottish game in general

A Statement From Dundee United

The Dundee United board have this afternoon released the following statement

A New Season Is Upon Us

In little under a months time a new SPL season will kick off, and what a season it looks set to be.

Rather than your usual quiet close season, where as fans we sit devoid of football and craving the thrill of a Saturday afternoon (or lunch time. Or how about Sundays!), we have had quite a lot to keep us going the summer.

We have had Euro 2012 where we had the joy of watch a fantastic (if not a little boring at times) Spanish side claim their 3rd major championship on the bounce.

And outside that, we have had the Rangers/Sevco 5088/Sevco Scotland embarrassment run on and on and on and on…

A New Season, A New Site

The season is drawing near and we are up and running to bring it all to you, and all you have to do is sit there in your comfy seat and enjoy (or not, you might not, that’s cool).
