	Scotland on Sunday - Sport - Football - Old Firm move to England given fresh momentum by chairman (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		THE possible departure of Celtic and Rangers to England’s Nationwide League was given fresh credence yesterday when the Ipswich chairman, David Sheepshanks, said that admitting the two clubs was the only way to enhance the market value of the first division.
		Speaking on BBC TV’s Football Focus, Sheepshanks said the Nationwide League was now a "dire" place to be because of the financial gap between the lower divisions and the Premiership, and that only the presence of the Glasgow teams could alleviate that.
		Sheepshanks is a fierce critic of the Nationwide’s new £95m TV contract with Sky, which runs for four years and replaced the doomed but far more lucrative ITV Digital deal.

		The Ipswich Town chairman and Football Association board member has always been one of the most progressive of football's powerbrokers but if he was being entirely selfish, he might advocate a return to the pre-war days of election to the top division.
		This has been to Ipswich's cost - points dropped at Wolves and Leeds in April shaped their destiny - but there is still a sense of excitement that something good will come of this year.
		Wilnis, Magilton, even the 21-goal striker Shefki Kuqi, are among nine Ipswich players whose contracts expire this summer and, with Premiership clubs eyeing Bent and the impressive goalkeeper Kelvin Davis, play-off disappointment could mean a number of departures.
