Doubt has been released on where both Hamilton Academical and Clyde will play their games at home next season in the middle of a fight for their holdings in New Douglas Park.
The stadium is still owned by the former owners on the side of the Hamilton championship, and the club currently pays the rent to use it.
The League 2 team, Clyde, is in a similar position, but they have admitted that they can be forced to find another temporary stadium at home.
They moved to Hamilton in 2022 after the North Lanarkshire council refused to extend their lease contract at the Broadwood stadium in Cumbernauld.
Clyde says they signed “a legal union agreement” in 2022 for a five -year stay, but that only they had the right to finish the agreement earlier this summer.
They added that they presented “written confirmation” to Hamilton of their plans to remain in February, but “they have not been able to obtain clarity that the agreement prevails beyond the current season.”
They added: “In fact, we have an informal indication otherwise.”
The SPFL has confirmed to the BBC Scotland that under the rules of the league “all clubs have to confirm before March 31 what will be their land registered for the next season.”
Clyde has fulfilled that deadline, despite the doubt about his home for the next period, but it is not clear if Hamilton has done it.
Hamilton director Gerry Straver, told BBC Scotland that they have been in conversations with the SPFL on the subject and are receiving legal advice on Clyde’s post.
He says that Clyde met the current owner Serif Zengin, who “was the opinion that the rent they paid was not efficient” and asked “if they were prepared to pay for an adequate rent.”
The strain added: “This would only be on the basis that Serif would acquire the stadium. Clyde later left the meeting and then presented this letter.”
In March, Hamilton had his reduced bronze club license at the entrance level by the Scottish FA for a variety of failures, which could lead to the possibility of a deduction of points this season.
The club, which is ninth on the second level, five points from the place of automatic descent, have appealed against that ruling.
The SPFL has confirmed that “it is still a fundamental aspect of the SPFL rules that our member clubs have a Lecotes Bronze level license.”
At the beginning of this season, League 2 Bonnyrigg Rose deduced six points after they also had their license reduced to the entrance level in problems with its launch.
