I'm sure it wasn't standard Scottish football short-termism at all and that you guys will be reaping the benefits of the decision over the coming years - along with the rest of the league.

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 County finishing sixth and winning the League Cup last season felt pretty good, but it's nothing compared to how excited I am about watching a match taking place 170 miles away from here, featuring two clubs I have nothing but contempt for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vote was hyped up to be a 'now or never' opportunity to introduce play-offs and wealth redistribution to the lower leagues. Which got voted through within a month, funnily enough. I won't forget his hypocritical bullying, of Gilmour at St Mirren in particular. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was outspoken and horrified when SFL clubs didn't collude in the little plan to exile Rangers for just one year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 ^this. Of course, Milne is a selfish, self-aggrandising c**t, but he is OUR selfish, self-aggrandising c**t and I'll take no lessons from hearts fans about the responsibility fans have over the actions of their clubs owner, thank ye very much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should start a petition calling for his resignation You miss the point, as has already been stated. The other 40 clubs, our clubs, must be happy with the way things are going as they employ Doncaster, and Regan too. Do not forget they effectively promoted Doncaster to his current role after his 2012 disasters instead of appointing a new public puppet for the SPFL. Any petitions should be aimed at our clubs as they are the ones with the power but are happy not to use it while sitting back and playing second fiddle as long as the money keeps coming in. This is the most soul destroying aspect of Scottish football. It's run by small minded individuals with no vision and no ambition that are obviously happy to ignore sectarianism and coast along with the hand outs it produces whilst ignoring their fans wishes for a level playing field. It really is getting harder and harder to give a f**k about it all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway - we all knew this stuff was coming - the lack of imagination in the way that the SPFL have marketed the top league since Rangers disappeared pretty much proves that they think that there's nothing else to the league that than the OF game, so it's no surprise now that they've shot their wad at the prospect of a return to the only situation they're comfortable with. I have to say though, the thought that we were all slaveringly going to midweek games in November in ever greater numbers, moist at the very prospect of the return of the OF game the following season is the best one I've ever heard - even funnier than the old classic "OF game is the biggest derby in the world" that the mutants at Ibrox and Parkhead have been lapping up for decades.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except in Mr Romanov we had somebody willing to actually take the fight to the Old Firm and the slimeballs in charge who serve only to pander to them. Unlucky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
