[QUOTE="edinburgh_gunner, post: 126835"] Getting back on track..... This is a complete shambles. McKie couldn't run a bath and he is seriously harming the game. There HAS to be an Edinburgh side, if we are reduced to one pro side we're stuffed. From what I gather, Bob Curruthers wants to take it to court and the fact the SRU are threatening Embra with closure suggests that McKie knows fine well he would have no legal footing. If the agreement was that Edinburgh players wouldn't go to Scotland training till July 13th then that's what should stand. I want a successful Scotland side, I do firmly believe in country before club BUT if an agreement is made it should be kept. The SRU is a complete disgrace and we need a complete change of board if the country is to make any progress. At this rate, pro rugby will die out here, and then what's next? Club rugby? At this rate with this SRU set up, there will be investors and we will struggle big time in the current years. In all honestly, I don't think Edinburgh would be closed though. The legallity of the deal would probably prevent it and they are the team with the most backing in terms of fans and investors and McKie is a money man. [/QUOTE]
