Green submits application for newco to join SFA

Charles Green last night submitted the paperwork required for the Scottish Football Association to process the application by newco Rangers for membership status.

The documents will be studied on Monday, with the application itself not officially adjudicated on until after the club has been granted a league place.

St Mirren became the seventh club to declare that they will vote no to Rangers' request to receive a league share from the Scottish Premier League, when the clubs meet on July 4, and so the likelihood is that the team will line-up in the first or third division next season. Green had already made a request for membership of the SFA, a week ago, but did not provide any of the supporting documents, which includes a list of all shareholders and full details of all office bearers, who must pass the SFA's fit and proper person test, as well as a business plan.
