    any vote in the leagues that gave celtic or rangers a perceived advantage would have been voted through by other clubs.

    celtic didnt break any rules.

    the fact so much of the financial clout went to celtic and rangers is simply because they attracted more fans than others, became more succesfull than others and so on.
    "so celtic holding too much clout is wrongdoing"

    if they earned the clout under fair means then whats the problem, if they didnt then why did dozens of other clubs not vote to change the system if it was so wrong.


    you tend to find clubs who attract bigger crowds get more money.

    is it corrupt that rangers historically made more money than celtic through gate money even though historically they average approx 3000 more per home game.

    if the answer is no, then why would it be corrupt for celtic to have more financial clout as hearts or partick.

    were all clubs meant to have the same amount of money to spend.

    Would the SPL - or any other league we've had - ever have got off the ground unless the diddies gave in to the Old Firm demands?
