Rangers left powerless as 'black sheep' of the SPFL
Rangers were left powerless as the 'black sheep' of the SPFL, according to Chris Jack. They were bypassed by the league and their rivals on the new broadcast deal. They came out on top of a dispute surrounding the sponsorship but were cut out by SPF chief Neil Doncaster. He claims their influence politically has waned. The influence to shape the narrative in the Press has all-but gone. Ibrox board have lost the capacity to be key decision makers in our game.
The rest of the league is likely to take a similar stance to the Bears. Ibrox's management is not always well-informed and doesn't always compromise. The club has a mixed record with its own fans. They have also had some unpopular decisions recently. Doncaster's attitude towards them is similar. They are ready to fight against the club whatever the merits of their argument.
