Rangers to apply for SFL membership

Rangers have revealed that they will now apply for membership of the Scottish Football League after Scottish Premier League clubs voted them out of the elite Scottish division.

As yet it is unclear which of the SFL divisions will be allowed to enter, but chief executive Charles Green said that it will be "whichever division the SFL sees fit".

Speaking to the club's official website, Green said: "We are deeply disappointed that our application to rejoin the SPL has been rejected overwhelmingly by the member clubs.

"We made a presentation to the SPL clubs this morning, detailing our proposals in support of our application and this included what we believed to be penalties and sanctions that would have dealt fairly with the difficulties caused by events at Rangers prior to our acquisition of the club on June 14.

"Sadly this was rejected by the other clubs and we regret that our club and our supporters were given false hope by this initiative. We will now proceed as we had planned from late June to apply for membership of the SFL.

"If our application were to be accepted, Rangers will play in whichever division the SFL sees fit and we will move forward from there."
