I don't think no-one else has applied to take over Oldco's place, so one of the division's will only have 9 teams...and Newco will have to play against themselves, whilst paying for the players that transferred from Oldco.
That doesn't sound too bad does it...unless you're a bluenose. I think the guys who run the SPL and the SFA should be forced out. They've been pretty biased.

It is poor when the actual SFA dont want to be transparent and clearly want rangers in Div1 so they quickly get back to the SPL, I'm sure there will be some token compromise somewhere along the line and it will be claimed everyone agreed to it

Remember reading somewhere that a lot of the lower league teams don't want them in there because the would struggle to pay Policing costs. Imagine United in league 2 now, couldn't see many teams wanting to fork out for that! (Probably a bad example, I reckon league 2 teams on a whole would have more resources to pay the police than the scottish Div 3 sides! Apart from Gills!  Wink)
That would mean the Gillingham match is off

Some bookies had it odds on for the league to still start late, this morning.

Although frankly would a SPL2 draw bigger income than the current Div 1?  Probably not...

They'll create SPL2 and then invite teams to join settng the criteria such that Rangers New Co can be accepted.

Still can't believe how fucked up the whole process has been, we might have some twats running the game in England but at least they could organise a piss up in a brewery. Scottish football has got major problems and they don't even seem to be asking the right questions at present, let alone getting close to the answers.

Will there be a renegotiation of the SPL TV deal now?

Seem to recall a tweet from Sky saying whatever the final decision was it wouldn't have any effect on the current TV deal.

It's not like there is big money involved, ESPN and Sky only pay £16m a season between them for the SPL rights. Peanuts even when compared to the money Sky pay for the Football League rights, which is £65m a season.

The current TV deal runs out in a year. It might not affect it this season...but it might next when negotiations take place.
