I bet the Highland League and Junior teams are bit angry.

They went further than a club of their size could ever expect to go. They would never be able to survive in the SPL without financial help.
It's more an example of what can happen when a club is financed by one man who takes away his support.

I understand that they were a number of Junior/Highland teams eyeing up Gretna's spot. They were very angry when Gretna got the spot in the first place. I forgot the team (I think it's Spartans) that are actively seeking a spot - they want East Stirling out and have recently upgraded their ground.

I'm gonna put this in my list of things to worry about. Right alongside Ronaldo leaving Man Utd.

What about your releatives that may have been hurt in the controlled explosion that no one was hurt in, does that not worry you?

Depends how controlled the explosion was. Was anybody hurt?

Does this mean that if MM takes away his money
if we have a really crap season then we have to agree with the FL to a double relegation rather than go out of business will we end up in the Conference:icon_eek::icon_eek:

Looks like Gretna will give up their Scottish League place and it looks like 6 teams are preparing bids for the spot.
