Livingston manager David Martindale has hit out at the rule change made as the SPFL pushed throughl the new Sky TV deal.
The Lions boss explained his club's initial reluctance to sign off on proposals, admitting he would have preferred all-club accordance. Rangers were the only side publicly opposing the deal and in light of the disagreement, the league body submitted a resolution to change the rules on voting. It meant that a unanimous outcome was no longer required resulting in the deal being pushed over the line by a 11-1 agreement, which was finalised on Tuesday.
But the Livingston gaffer has shared his concerns over the changed rules, insisting it is imperative that all clubs are in agreement when such big decisions are being made. Martindale further questioned the way in which regulations can just be altered every time a vote does not go the way the SPFL may have hoped.
