The link shows Preston, WORST EXAMPLE, to have revenues of £11m in the Championship two years ago.

The top three teams last season . . . Brighton, Newcastle and Huddersfield were each on £200 million plus £79m for the next three seasons if they are relegated. See earlier link.

Or would you rather find your once-great club in a half empty 8,000 capacity junior stadium in a faraway field, miles from the fans' local boozers ?

SKINT with maximum 2,500 attendances @ £25 each and local derbies against Forfar, Brechin and Arbroath.

Revenue plummeting to £2m from 20 home games x 2,500 = 50,000 per season x £20+vat = £1m plus SPFL money.

Maybe you cannae see the writing on the wall, and you certainly cannae count.

NOTHING HAPPENS UNTIL SOMEBODY SELLS SOMETHING

That is the true result of having clowns running the club for 25 years.

So 2016 was two years ago, and you say I can't count You've been shown proof that you're talking utter nonsense, can't wait to see who you blame when nothing of this fantasy materialises.

THE SOLUTION FOR BOTH CLUBS

Demolish Dens Park and build a brand new 20,000 capacity shared stadium on the same site with a 500 capacity, 3m high car park underneath the pitch. (1.5m dug down and 1.5m raised pitch level.

Retractable roof. Adjacent Premier Inn. Lounges. Shops. Offices in the four corner blocks.

Join the other six Scottish clubs in the EFL Championship. The number of clubs will increase from 92 to 100 . . . EPL & EFL with 24 each. Lower two divisions with 26 each.

Thanks for the links Deetox. Found Ampersand and the article by McLean about Rangers and Celtic being able to play in EPL if they were still part of the U.K. It was an argument based on the fans of both clubs voting to stay in the union,sept 2014, when the indyref1 was on the go. It is a massive leap, IMO, to the claims you have referred to. Enjoy you holiday.

The main problem back then was that Rangers and Hearts were in turmoil and Indyref 1 was due.

The decision was made to suspend the case until the time was right.

In September, Scotland voted No and remain part of the UK.

However, the real opportunity now is that there is no need for the Scottish clubs to pursue the FA directly in the Court of Session in Edinburgh with all the expense that would have entailed

The UKGov gave the FA six months to comply with UK & EU Competition Law.

Despite promises by Greg Clarke, Chairman of the FA, nothing has happened. In February the UKGov finally ran out of patience and withdrew their £40m funding support immediately . . and have proceeded with new legislation to force the FA and its clubs to comply.

The snap election in June delayed the reading of the Bill, which is scheduled to become law in September.

I trust this is clear.
