You are so right, it would be great if everyone did just that and shared their Cathkin views with us all.
With Clyde, Livingstone & others finding themselves according to the Press in the danger zone, we are all reminded of the potential disappearance of our favourite Clubs. I sincerely hope a repeat of the Hi Hi story, does not happen again.
Recently I was interested to read of Celtic's thinking with regard to having their reserve side play in the SFL 3. At the time of Thirds' crisis, I put forward a tongue in cheek proposal to the Press, suggesting that Celtic or Rangers could have easily bought out Thirds' debts, sacked the Board, and applied for permission to the SFL to use Thirds as a feeder Club, but allow them to operate in the then second Division under the name of Third Lanark of course with accepted necessary restrictions.of Terms & Conditions.
Perhaps not a practical , even a crazy suggestion, but at least we would have been left with a Club, whilst the takeover "Principles," would have enjoyed developing their "reserves" in a much more competitive , challenging . & beneficial way. All Grounds within touching distance of each other.
In fact is there very much difference between this type of move, and the situation prevailing in the forties & early fifties, when Queens Park, were virtually a feeder club for the big two - with the annual transfers between them hitting high figures on occasions.
Many obstacles would have had to be overcome - What do you think ??
Bert.
