Is this weekend the last match we get to go to this season?


Recommended Posts

Only way to sort this is to get someone from outwith Scotland who knows nothing about football to judge what is the fairest option. Bet they would nul and void the season. Won't happen because everyone including myself is biased.

I am fairly confident that no league in Europe who play a winter season like us will choose to null and void the season.

Apparently the top div vote was actually 10-2

Hearts "No" vote was signed but didnt actually reach the SPFL.

SPFL asked the obvious question and it arrived later on last night.

Budge is a real pro........................

She had 28 days to send it, so there was no need to get it across by 5pm.

Agreed that the null and void option won't happen but there is something to be said for someone (Uefa maybe) just eventually having to decide something. 

Assuming this proposal fails, nothing will be agreed by the clubs. No voting clubs seem to be talking about league reconstruction or needing to play out the season. The first won't be voted through either and the second just isn't happening at all.

I can see why the SPFL wanted to push this through. A proposal that fails by one vote is miles closer to an agreement than anything else on the table. Naturally they've made a rip-roaring c**t of it, what else would happen.

They seem to be having a meeting on the 23rd, which might point the top flight in a certain direction.

The issue of the lower league sides squabbling over who deserves what would likely remain, though.

Leaked conversations between Dundee and the SPFL,  rumoured to be true but I'm not 100% sure of their validity. 

 

 

This is Eric Drysdale (Dundee) yesterday via WhatsApp, discussing how Dundee did submit their no vote to SPFL proposal. Gerry is Britton (Partick Thistle). Neil referred to is Doncaster, the Peter is Lawwell and the John is Nelms (Dundee

And there's absolutely nothing integrous about letting those teams in trouble have another tilt at mending/tweaking their fucking terrible squads.
Perfect example is our goalkeeper is out of contract. He was the difference between staying up and going down last season. He has saved over 100 shots this season and had 10 clean sheets. Pivotal to us staying up.

Michael Stewart  asking on Sportsound why does payout of money have to be linked to calling the league as is?  Inverness have £330k outstanding FFS! Who wants to put money pressure on clubs to vote to call it? Look at the board ; Motherwell unexpected 3rd place, Hamilton relieved with 11th place,  Brechin, strangely the only bottom team to not be relegated. And could there possibly, just possibly, be one or two Celtic supporters on the board? This really looks smelly.

•    Ladbrokes Premiership: Alan Burrows (Motherwell), Les Gray (Hamilton Academical), Stewart Robertson (Rangers)

•    Ladbrokes Championship: Ross McArthur (Dunfermline Athletic), Graham Peterkin (Ayr United) 

•    Ladbrokes League 1 and League 2: Ken Ferguson (Brechin City)

I think Stewart Robertson is Chairman?

Is this still correct?

Brechin not being relegated is not "strange" in any way. They're the only bottom club who are not in an automatic relegation spot - they are the equivalent of Hamilton, Queen of the South or Forfar in that they are in a relegation play-off spot. There is no way to decide who to promote through these play-offs if they can't take place.

Fair point.

SPFL website says Murdoch McLennan is the Chairman. And the Independent non-Exec is Karyn McCluskey. Any idea where their sympathies lie?

They are big Celtic fans mate, working behind the scenes to further our agenda to control world football.

They report directly to the pope.
