THE proposed new TV deal between the SPFL and Sky Sports has been thrown into doubt.
Rangers have reportedly failed to respond to the resolution.
Premiership clubs were given 28-days to vote on the resolution.
And the Daily Mail reports that Rangers did not offer a reply before the midnight deadline on Sunday.
The report states that the SPFL are now set to hold an emergency meeting, as a result of the £30million-per-year deal being plunged into doubt.
The proposed deal would see Sky Sports increasing their payment for the rights to Scottish football from £25million to £30million by the 2028/29 campaign.
By the 2024/25 season, the broadcaster would also be able to showcase up to 60 matches per season - compared to the current 48.
It is said that Rangers have concerns that the SPFL haven't invited other TV companies to make a bid to show live games.
In the emergency SPFL meeting, an 11-1 majority could still vote the deal through, with a rule change. This would require all 42 professional clubs to vote on the matter, though.
Rangers have been contacted for comment.
