I did a search for the word celtc, but surprisingly couldn't find it.
I'm going to say no, in Alloa's case.Will the rest of the League One and Two clubs want an investigation, or change at the top?
The post you quoted relates to the SPFL Directors removing the CEO etc. That looks like a simple majority vote by Directors. However, they are all 'bessie mates' so that's not happening.
Post #139 relates to how Directors are appointed to the SPFL Board to fill vacancies, and that seems to require a 66% vote of support from member clubs.
I can't find anything on voting a Director out though. However, they do all come up for re-election every year.
They got shafted as Raith Rovers were gifted the league. Not difficult to work out where they would have placed their "X".They backed us or they didnae back us. ?
They fuuked us or they didnae fuuk us. ?
Well ,which is it.
A lot of clubs regretting their vote last year it seems
Hamilton's vote went above and beyond an X sent on an email, their staff member was a very vocal supporter of Doncaster and a very critical agitator of anything Rangers relatedHamilton voted the way every single other club would have done in their position.
As someone on another thread posted, swap the position round ie Rangers top, Celtic second and their votes would be reversed.
The job of the executive team is to find consensus and harmony which helps improve the overall health of the league as a whole.
This is almost impossible when self preservation is the order of the day and one club has too much influence.
It’s a rhetorical question, 100% we can all join the dots and come to that conclusion. Unless you believe in the mother of all coincidences, which does in fairness seem to infect Scottish football, when it suits.The question remains if League 1 and 2 have been made the sacrificial lambs to show football as "doing something" after the Dubai fiasco.
Hopefully the club are still working in the background to get the numbers needed for a no confidence vote. I doubt clubs would want the disruption it would cause right now but surely the majority of clubs will be looking for change at the end of the season.
Not consulting the lower league clubs before stopping the league is another major own goal and again highlights the lack of leadership.
Same as Raith, Motherwell and Dunfermline. Just a load of choirboys for Neil and Peter.Hamilton's vote went above and beyond an X sent on an email, their staff member was a very vocal supporter of Doncaster and a very critical agitator of anything Rangers related
Possibly but it now drags them into our fight, we can now sit back and win titles and let the rest restart the momentum they failed to back us up onSee for everyone who comes on here with the predictable f**k them all, reap what you sew replies. Try and look at it another way, if that's the road you want to go down, fine. Just be prepared for the present set up to continue.
Personally I would find it helpful to have a “sticky” or at least a thread which can be bookmarked if wanted, which gives the breakdown of who voted and how.Was it a secret vote, or do we have a definitive list of who backed us last season?
Exactly and this is why reform is needed,clubs will always vote in thier own interests!power must return to the SFA (reformed) so that it is run by an independent executiv,and not the club reps.How do you think Falkirk would’ve voted if they were a point above Raith Rovers?
Thistle were relegated , being 1 point behind with a game in hand .With a game in hand
Whilst I agree with you, it's just using that particular example was probably not the best one.
Forget alloa. I was told that mulraney was trying to get on the celtic board, but didnt have the money. He was advised by people at celtic to get involved in another club.I'm going to say no, in Alloa's case.

Don't trust any of them is all I'm saying.What do you think they can do?
The SPFL bribed hibs to play or they’d lose the 3 points that doesn’t sound like someone who’s trying to %^*& the league up.
I have no idea mate. Our proposal was for an Independent Inquiry and that required 75% support. The media narrative at the time said if more than 15 out of 42 clubs voted with Rangers it would be seen as a vote of No Confidence in Doncaster. We fell just short on that score.Got it.
My recollection from April time was of a 50% plus requirement for a no confidence vote VB. I must be wrong. Again.

No idea what the official rule is but, with these things, perception is often more important than reality. If there's a groundswell against him he will be a goner - regardless of voting percentages.
We need sympathetic members on the SPFL Board rather than the likes of Les Gray and Ken Ferguson.
As 99% of votes, in any aspect of life, understandably are.Nobody should assume the likes of Hamilton are now somehow in a pro-Celtic, anti-Rangers caucus.
Hamilton voted to keep the club in the top flight; anything else was collateral damage. I didn’t agree with that vote, but it was cast in pure self-interest.
Hypothetical now, no point looking back & wondering, we need to deal with the here & nowHow do you think Falkirk would’ve voted if they were a point above Raith Rovers?
Hence why i included all in what i said not Falkirk in particular.Now it's been a while since I had to think who backed us. But would it not be best to check before posting this? Egg on your face now that everyone points out they backed us, nice one lads.
They voted with Rangers, Hearts and Partick Thistle FFS.Where were you in April/May you c-nt?
Rangers pointed out to you what was happening.
You chose to ignore it.
Behave? I was pointing out that social media has been rife with panic from our fans about it.behave, numbers will have fallen by end of the month and a vaccination is in circulation. Look at the english premiership for guidance.
They voted with Rangers, Hearts and Partick Thistle FFS.I stand corrected

Let's get this league wrapped up. All Rangers need to do for now, is be in the background and let the others know we'll have their back.Time for Rangers to start speaking with all these clubs in the background, garner enough support and go for the throats.
We need to step up now and be at the forefront of changing Scottish football for good.
Time to take our rightful place as a force for good and a leading light in the game and get timmy back to heel where they belong.
As mentioned above, it would probably be best if any resolution to oust the SPFL board came from someone other than Rangers as it would likely gain more support. It would probably be best to come from a Falkirk or Partick Thistle to take away the bias against big bad Rangers.
What we should probably do, and for all we know may be doing, is assist them in the background to ensure the best chance of success but before any resolution goes forward we need to be sure that it has enough support to oust Peters poodles, as I think we will only get one more chance at this for at least a couple of years.
Churchill worked with stalin, hardly a marriage made in heaven, but was for the greater good.Regardless of Falkirk siding with us last year or not .....
F*** them, and every other b**tarding club.
I will not forgive or forget them for 2012, regardless of where they side now.
Here, for anyone who needs their memory jogged ..............
SFL sets date for vote on Rangers
Scottish Football League clubs will meet again on 12 July and are set to vote on a Rangers newco playing in the First Division.www.bbc.co.uk
An extract ......
Falkirk, Raith Rovers and Morton have voiced their opposition to a Rangers newco joining them in Division One,
Churchill worked with stalin, hardly a marriage made in heaven, but was for the greater good.
Either that or circle the wagons and we'll be stuck with them for the foreseeable future.
No need for your link to prove some point. We all know what happened.
Thats what I'm doing. Never said any different.I stand by my point.
Churchill / Stalin is the same as our boardrooms in a kind of way , a bit like our board and Aberdeens board getting on just now, thats fine for them, and understandable and needed dare I say
But for me, a Joe Bloggs fan ... F*** them , I wont be 1 of them fans saying Falkirk are "all right"
Leave that to the boards
Not having a go mate. Just voicing my opinion, I literally hate all the clubs that put the boot in.Thats what I'm doing. Never said any different.
He’s not really correct .Academical is correct but what genuinely annoys me about the clubs who are currently complaining and those who were complaining last year is that they sat quietly for many years and acquiesced with Lawell putting his placemen and cronies into virtually every important position within the SFA and SPFL. A few years ago I was told by a then club chairman, "What Peter wants, Peter gets". They all knew that and they were all prepared to go along with it.
Its the ones who voted against that need to come out shouting, once one does imo plenty will follow.They voted with Rangers, Hearts and Partick Thistle FFS.
