Gills boss in breakaway threat
Gillingham chairman Paul Scally has warned that First Division clubs could resign from the Football League.

Scally is reportedly unhappy that the �90m television revenue money for the three Football League divisions was distributed equally between all the clubs.

"The problem with the structure at the moment is that Second and Third Division clubs can outvote the First Division clubs," Scally told the Gillingham website.

"If the First Division clubs cannot make them see sense, then I think it's highly likely...that the First Division clubs will resign from the Football League.

"This would have to be done before Christmas. We have then four months to confirm the resignation."

Scally went on to say the support from other Division One clubs was "rock solid".
