sidofthesouth Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 How about a vote on demoting Dundee to league 2 for gross misconduct on the basis that they are putting lots of clubs at risk of going bust. Thistle & Stranraer stay as they are and Cove, Raith & Dundee utd get promoted. Think it would get the necessary 75% backing? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet we are only 2 points behind a team with a game in hand so as dreadful as we may have been there’s another team equally dreadful. and what about Falkirk who are being unfairly shafted as well and could very well have won their league? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the leagues would be temporary, the teams could be assigned by gate, rather than by league position. This would be a Northern Premier of Ross county, Inverness, Aberdeen, Dundee, United, st Johnstone , Dunfermline, Hibs, Hearts and Raith in the South you’d have Rangers. Celtic, Motherwell, Kilmanock, Livingston, St Mirren, Hamilton, Falkirk, Thistle and Morton. Or something like that. Games would have to be loosely scheduled as there are going to be stops and starts over the next 18 months. Playoff with the top 2 to 4 teams, home and away to give the 4 OF games. Sounds a million miles away from the current setup, but there is no easy way to end the current leagues and any new 36 game season if highly unlikely to finish within the normal timescale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what Lachlan Cameron said at the time: "But, as part of [McCall's] contract negotiations for his current contract, part of the deal to keep him was that we agreed between us, if somebody came calling, I'd always give him the opportunity to speak to them - most of them he has turned down, but this one he didn't."

That's a significant number. Nice one. The other 3 of us have have met the required 75% mark to carry the motion that there are no heads gone. Obviously this will only apply if all of the votes were cast and one of the others isn't waiting for a better offer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
