League Reconstruction 20/21 season

Belgium court just overturned relegation and no titles awarded. Reconstruction could be on for them as a result potentially? Not sure how this affects us as arbitration isn't the same type of court but it can't do much harm to Hearts and PT's case. Get reconstruction done now and put all this to bed FFS.

Mother Theresa Budge should have taken her "case" to the Belgian courts. Big mistake.

The Belgian league didnt vote on reconstruction, and simply denied clubs appeals to put it to a vote, a direct breach of their own rules.

It's not the same.

They also agreed to play a relegation play off for the team second bottom, but just relegate the bottom side outright.

I'm sure it means nothing but seems relevant to the debate. It does show the value of fighting your corner though which we are being slagged off for doing.

Folk are slagging Hearts because your owner and fans have spent the past two months trying to bully and threaten everyone else into what you want to happen.

Ann Budge was threatening lower league clubs with court action at the same time as trying to gather their support for reconstruction.

Just saying perhaps people should wait for the official ruling rather than taking the word of a single twitter account who is claiming this exclusive in order to increase their Patreon subs.

It's been confirmed in the Belgian media.

If the arbitration panel was to base their decision on a league that has feck all to do with Scottish football it would be a major dereliction of their job at hand. Complete irrelevance.

Never mind a completely different legal system and laws.

Basically the Belgium Pro league and SPFL should get together for beers. Sound like they have a lot in common.

Apart from the Belgian league proposing the exact same thing through 4 votes, ending the season apart from play off games and not allowing reconstruction to be discussed or voted on, obviously.

I have no clue. They protested the decision (or squealed like pigs as Chick Young would say) and didn't just sit down and take their pain and move on or whatever fans of other clubs and the media have been telling us to do for several months. What I take out of it is if you think you have been treated unfairly you have every right to stand up for yourself. They won and we might not. Doesn't change the fact we have the right to have a go without being accused of trying to bring down Scottish football.

Even though the clubs rejected it? Don't you believe in democracy?

I believe in a democracy that doesn't pretend votes are caught in a spam folder for 4 hours while you try to change the voter's mind.

I think he may believe in the SNP and EU versions of democracy, lose the vote once, twice then keep coming back until the other side loses the will to live.

Care to point out where the Belgian side demanded £8m in compensation?

So right now you know, for a fact, that SPFL pretended about the spam folder. Well that fact will blow the case wide open. 

Just produce your evidence and the whole affair is as good as over.

It's the exact same. Apart from the fact there were different government guidelines, different things proposed, different voting results, a different process of appeal, and a different court system used.

Identical.
