Rangers hit out at the SFA after speaking out about their frustration in hitting a brick wall in their bid to get colt teams into the lower leagues in the summer.
And now the new plan for Celtic and Rangers B teams to join the Lowland League has been met with early resistance from one chairman in the division.
Civil Service Strollers president Russell Pryde has become the first chairman of a fifth tier side to publicly raise concerns over the proposal which will see both Glasgow 'B' teams enter the division next season.
The proposal for the addition to the fifth tier is a one-year agreement that would void the reserve teams positions at the end of the season - meaning they cannot be promoted or relegated.
It has garnered some support among fifth tier clubs who welcome the financial and commercial benefits that would come with the addition of Rangers and Celtic.
However, the Edinburgh side don't seem to be among the non-league sides backing the addition of the Premiership youngsters.
Club chief Pryde insists the current pyramid set-up, which allows West of Scotland and East of Scotland League clubs the chance to enter the division, should be respected.
He believes the places should be offered to tier six teams rather than the Colts kids ahead of the key vote next Monday.
Pryde's statement read: "We are now aware that there is a proposal regarding Celtic and Rangers ‘B’ teams entering the Lowland League for season 21/22.
"There is a Lowland League meeting of member clubs on Monday 10th May to discuss the proposal.
"Whilst I feel it is only fair to hear out the proposal – and we have many questions and views arising – there is one issue that I feel is not being addressed.
"The proposal is in effect to increase the size of the League by two places.
"If this is the case then I would demand these two places were first offered to clubs that have bought into the concept of a pyramid and are currently in the Lowland League feeder leagues.
"Like Civil Service Strollers, they will have spent significant time and money to improve playing facilities etc.
"This must be both recognised and the spirit of the pyramid adhered to."
