Stranraer chief vows to fight on

STRANRAER chairman Iain Dougan says he will continue to seek ‘the righting of wrongs’ by the SPFL in conjunction with other unhappy clubs. The Stair Park side were relegated to League Two by last month’s vote on ending the season and joined Rangers and Hearts in requisitioning Tuesday’s EGM. Their resolution seeking an independent investigation into the handling of the vote was defeated, but Dougan is not prepared to stand down. ‘There have been various persons suggesting that a line is now drawn on this matter, and we subsequently now move on for the greater good of the game,’ he said in a statement. ‘If I may state, this is an extremely easy analysis to arrive at when you have no concerns, nor were adversely affected by actions of recent decisions. ‘I make no apologies for the fact that it is not in my nature to concede all too easily, or indeed remain silent, nor accept any decision that I feel is unjust towards our football club. ‘As such, I intend, with the full backing of my committee, to explore all avenues in order to properly redress, with fellow likeminded clubs, to achieve what I believe is the righting of wrongs on so many fronts.’
