S1M-2972# Shona Robison (North East Scotland) (SNP) :  SPL-TV and the
Financial Future of Football Clubs— That the Parliament regrets the
uncertain financial future facing the 10 non-Old Firm Scottish Premier
League Clubs following the decision by Rangers and Celtic to effectively
veto plans for SPL-TV; notes that the 10 clubs whose revenue risks being
adversely impacted in a very significant way employ in the region of 1000
full-time staff, thousands more on a casual or part-time basis and
contribute significantly to their surrounding local economies, and
considers that the Scottish Executive should intervene so that the clubs
can look forward to a degree of financial stability and the public can
enjoy watching their teams on television.
