Alloa laugh off Green’s short cut plan
Charles Green’s plan for Sevco to short cut their way to the top have been kicked into touch by Alloa chairman Mike Mulraney.
A cheeky bid by the £1m/month loss making newcomers was launched on Monday as football chiefs prepare to vote on reconstruction plans.
Green wants Sevco to leapfrog past all 10 clubs in Division Two of the SFL missing out on the opportunity to make new friends at clubs they have never played before.
Alloa were Third Division champions last season with Mulraney amused at Green’s bid to get fast tracked into the second top division.
“My reaction is one of mild amusement,” the Alloa chief admitted. “Wouldn’t it be lovely if we all got to dictate which league we play in next season?
“Rangers are trying to bat for what is in their interests. They are entitled to put forward their case, I am entitled to ignore it.
“Alloa won the Third Division last season. Does that mean we deserve to go up two leagues? If we win promotion we’d go up on merit. That would be fair.”
As part of Green’s master-plan lower division clubs would be paid for at least 600 Sevco tickets a season with an Ibrox Colts side admitted to SFL membership.
Explaining his thinking Green said: “The principle of promotion and relegation for the clubs which fall into these categories at the end of this season should be enshrined in any new league set up.
“So, if, as widely predicted, we end up with a 12-12-18 set up, Rangers should be promoted and this promotion should be to the middle tier.”
As associate members of the SFA and SPL Sevco will have no vote in reconstruction talks.

I was listening to the phone in last night on the radio and the guy who isnt hugh keevins or derek johnstone (dont know his name) said at one point along the lines of, ‘scottish football needs rangers in the spl, without them theres no money. The rules are there but this is an precedented and exceptional circumstance and we need them back to bring in money’. My personal view might be a bit naive and idealistic but i would rather see scottish end up dead and follow the rules that the people who run scottish football have set themselves rather than ‘bitch out’ and overturn their own rules (again) just to keep afloat a league and countrys football system maintained by corrupt money brought in by corrupt people. So the short version is – naw chuckles, you’ll work your way up to the spl like every other team and get on with it, ya 1st class prick!

The hun agents in the MSM will keep pushing the double-up promotion nonsense if for no other reason than to generate the hunnish hordes and get them to buy season tickets,losing 1 mil a month they need every sheckel they can get their grubby wee hands on,2nd share issue will be needed at some point jus to cover costs,possible administration for cheatco??? Chuckles will need every inch of his ” big ands ” to keep the lynch mob at bay
Huns as deluded as they are will wake up eventually to him,in the meantime am quite enjoying watching him decieve and not deliver on almost everything he promises them,good work chuckles

Cheatco’s administration will be called Taken 2

They are absolutely desperate so must try & make out that the authorities are denying them a place to keep the easily deluded onside. Need to do something to appease the hordes and get them to buy into the increased season tickets (+£200)
Never mind I’m sure the huge response from his recent world tour (appealing to his 500 millions fans) will bring investors like the old gold rush days…..NOT
Wonder why no-one from MSM has queried why they don’t have 100m viewers @ £1 a game so rake in £100m for a single game ho ho ho
