Given it’s come so close, suspect they’ll now move to restructure the league, suspend relegation and scoop up the vote of Partick Thistle to make this happen.

SirJimmyofNic Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I now await the demise of a few clubs in the coming weeks, what a sad state of affairs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly, Mr Shankly Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Will gladly hand over the Caramel Wafer Cup to Caley if they vote yes. I’ll walk to the Highlands from Oakley to gift them it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 This is once again an absolutely embarrassing organisational farce. There lies no blame with any club. Every single club is voting in self interest, obviously. We (Falkirk) are doing the same and us (fans) would be championing this recommendation if we were top by a point. But how it ever got to this point is mind boggling. Hilarious lack of leadership from the SPFL, the whole lot should be sacked for this sorry mess. Good people at clubs will lose their job because of this. Grow some balls and stop trying to appease the bigot bros and pass the buck. I’m absolutely fuming, even though Falkirk looks like getting the outcome it wanted 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadwell Dog Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) We're back to what I said originally should have happened. Give out the cash and then sort out the shite but no let's go for the shite first whilst clubs go out of business.

Both saying its not passed yet as not all clubs have voted. League 1 and league 2 have sufficient to vote it through . It's a single championship team vote that will confirm yes or no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Fife is best Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Wonder which 3 clubs in League 1 and 2 voted against 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Utterly shambolic stuff from the SPFL either way. First priority should have been passing a resolution to pay out whatever percentage of the minimum prize money for each league the SPFL have at the moment. That's what stops clubs going to the wall before the summer. What to do about leagues and promotions and relegations should have been dealt with between now and the summer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ding Dang Doo Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 We're back to what I said originally should have happened. Give out the cash and then sort out the shite but no let's go for the shite first whilst clubs go out of business.And what is your magical proposal to sort out the shite? Honestly all I've read here are a bunch of cock and bull reconstruction ideas none of which have come from any club and have any legs in them. We'll be having the same vote on the same terms in a months time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFC1878 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Surprised if they all voted. Under company law they had 28 days to vote. Only one club exercising this right would have forced the count to be delayed. This. How the hell did they not get their lawyer to check that what they were doing was legal before putting it to a vote with a deadline? Incompetent idiots! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, release a statement saying you're still awaiting completion or whatever but the way it's worked out means you're now going to have one championship team getting pelters from team's fans and probably boycotted by the bigger roasters. Pointless. I might have picked this up wrong but Am I right in saying the voting is now complete? I think the teams that haven’t voted have no intention of doing so as they didn’t get the mandatory 28 days notice. No doubt they will be under severe pressure right now mind you so things might change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.R.FC Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Given the closeness of the vote the chances of a robust new proposal being put forward seem unlikely. It needed an emphatic rejection to send them back to the drawing board. They just need Inverness to get on board and it would be through. I think they will try and find a way to convince Inverness to vote through the current proposal with maybe a small tweak so the SPFL can have their proposal through and try to save some face. I’m not saying it is the correct way forward or how to do things. But I just can’t see them ripping up their proposal for something different when it has come so close. Releasing some of the votes before they have all come seems pretty dodgy and poor form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again this has been completely hashed in the rush to get clubs to on vote on such an important issue in a matter of days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
