The Scottish Professional Football league met at Hampden Park today to review the findings of the independent governance evaluation conducted by Henderson Loggie.
Henderson Loggie commissioned a 58-page document based around the organisations operations and providing a raft of recommendations from it. At a gathering inside the national stadium, the SPFL board thoroughly examined all 41 suggestions presented by the accountant firm and formulated an action plan to implement them.
The recommendations from Henderson Loggie and the proposed actions by the board will undergo scrutiny at the general meeting involving all 42 member clubs on April 24, with SPFL Chairman Murdoch MacLennan hopeful for a solution.
Last month, six Scottish Premiership clubs hit back at the governing body following the review, as Rangers, Aberdeen, St Mirren, Motherwell, St Johnstone, and Livingston collectively drafted a letter expressing "serious concerns".

Reacting to the latest meeting, MacLennan said: “The SPFL Board met this morning and considered carefully all the recommendations put forward by Henderson Loggie. We will now produce proposals, which will be circulated to all SPFL Clubs ahead of discussion on 24 April.”
