Leeann Dempster has warned that there is a meteor about to hit Scottish football.

Since March 13 the Scottish game has been suspended with no sign when the turnstiles will start clicking again as clubs lose money month after month.

One club has more at stake than most. After having directors underwrite losses for the last four years the latest set of accounts from Ibrox confirmed a £10m shortfall, assuming that the season was completed.

With no new investors coming in things are looking grim for Interim Chairman Douglas Park with Dempster dropping a massive warning about what is around the cormmer.

The Hibs chief executive told The Sun:

There has been so much focus on disagreements. I’ve had a bit of a ringside seat because I have been focusing on other issues but at this time, the efforts of the Scottish game should be looking at the meteor which is about to hit us.

Last summer Ron Gordon took control of Hibs with the American businessman investing significantly in the club.

Yesterday Dempster stood down from the 15-strong SPFL Task Force on Reconstruction in order to concentrate on other matters.
