FREDDYFRY Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52905133 So Doncaster now saying “look guys we have this bribe sitting here and need to save Hearts, so just tell me what you agree to and I can get it through. One year, two, five doesn’t matter as long as it goes to 14 teams!” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmontheloknow Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) I second the trolling up thread that says promote ICT and Dundee but relegate the tarts. Edited June 4, 2020 by cmontheloknow 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobby Dossar Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 1 hour ago, Mr. X said: All I know is that Ann Budge believes she has a legal case against the SPFL. The SPFL have a Duty of Care for all members under common law and Restriction of Trade has also been mentioned. I'm not even going to attempt to debate the legal stand point as I wouldn't know where to begin. I do understand that couple of QC's have advised her that she has a strong case. I also understand that it can help your case if you can prove in court you have tried every possible alternative avenue prior to taking the legal route. That’ll be the QC’s that will get paid wether she wins or looses the case 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Love how the 14-10-10-10 sorts Hearts out but she's cast Partick and Stranraer off into the relegation ravine. I second the trolling up thread that says promote ICT and Dundee but relegate the tarts.You’re thinking of 14-8-10-10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever pittance Mr Anderson coughs up won't cover that but we'll see won't we. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying fans will not renew or walk. Seems on .net that at least a third are stating as much. Even if it's only 15-20% that's a huge hit to save Hearts for a £50k bribe.

Ric Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 The way Doncaster has been going about this recently it's almost like he's been told to give successful businesswoman Ann Budge enough (metaphorical) rope to hang herself with so it can't come back and bite him when she does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems a bit petty when it would help Stranraer, Partick, Kelty, Brora and the play off teams, solely because it would also help your rivals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean we should just roll over because Hearts money man dangles 50k at these mobs? If they can't survive without his 50k they are not worth saving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all about Heart of Midlothian not taking their medicine and not small club welfare. If it was Hamilton or Livi relegated you know there would be no debate about helping out anybody with 14-10-10-10 or checks from Mr Bailout Gifford. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Day Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) Hearts Supporters clubs and Federation of shareholders have "penned an open letter" to Scottish football. Just in case anyone thought the sense of entitlement was limited to the Tynecastle boardroom https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/sport/football/hearts-supporter-shareholder-organsations-send-18361617.amp?__twitter_impression=true Edited June 4, 2020 by Green Day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Joint memo to SPFL If you could see your way clear to admitting 4 new teams ie Brora, Kelty and 2 mystery teams to the bottom division, you can have both our £48k to divvy up among the , diddies other clubs.

If these clubs are going to go under they should get interest free loans from the SFA, not bribes from Bailout Gifford via Tynecastle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
