The Scottish Premier League is considering replacing Rangers with "Team X" when they publish their fixture list for the 2012/13 season.

STV understands the schedule, which will be released on Monday morning, could reflect the current ambiguity over whether Charles Green's new company will be granted the club's member share of the league to participate in the competition.

The SPL declined to comment on whether the fixture list will exclude Rangers when asked by STV on Friday afternoon.

The current holder of the share in the league, the now Rangers oldco operated by administrators Duff and Phelps, had been given a deadline of Friday to submit overdue accounts in order to fulfill membership criteria for next season.

The SPL also declined to comment on whether those had been received, while also not confirming whether an application for Green's newco share transfer had been submitted.
