Scotish football in trouble

 

Ten clubs are ready to quit the Scottish Football League in time for next season, BBC Scotland has learned.

A letter signed by the 10 clubs is to be sent to the Scottish Premier League ahead of their meeting next week.

Rangers are not among the clubs involved in the possible breakaway.

The letter will stress that their preference for league restructuring is through dialogue with all 42 senior clubs but if that cannot be achieved the SPL should consider a second tier.

The 10 clubs are understood to have taken independent legal advice about quitting the SFL without the required two years' notice.

For any breakaway to succeed, SPL clubs would need to approve the plan with an 11-1 majority required.

The move comes against the backdrop of protracted talks on root-and-branch reform of the Scottish game.

Plans for a new three-tier set-up with two leagues of 12 and a division of 18 above a pyramid structure and a new governing body did not get past a vote from the top flight clubs, with St Mirren and Ross County opposed to the model.

SPL clubs gathered again on Monday to explore the possibility of adopting some elements of the blueprint but, again, no consensus was reached.

The top flight teams are to meet next week to discuss the possible introduction of play-offs for next season but they will now have this letter to mull over.

County and St Mirren have previously voiced opposition to any SPL2, saying that a compromise had to be reached involving all 42 professional clubs.
