Did we moan when we went down with the 15 point admin penalty? Did we moan when we yo-yo’d in the late70’s and early 80’s? This is different.

None of the cretins on here understand the idea of sticking to a set of principles. Despite us being shite all season or "overspending" we still had 24 points to play for and the ridiculous decision to quickly end the league to ensure Celtic got their 9 in a row looks even worse now the rest of the leagues are starting. There's no point arguing with them, they're almost as infuriating as the "all lives matter" brigade.

Keyboard keys flying everywhere at the Tackle's hoose.

Are you genuinely about to claim the SPFL Premiership is in any way comparable to the EPL?

That's your argument? That they're starting up again but we're not?

Arsenal yesterday hired a fucking private plane to get their players to Manchester to maintain distancing, and then three coaches to get the squad to the match, plus theyve have three testing sessions this week alone.

There is absolutely no way Scottish football could do that, which is why they're waiting until restrictions are lifted even further.

By what set of principles is it correct to undo relegation and promotion, (which is what Budgie appears to be seeking), thus rewarding 3 teams who won a grand total of 12 games all season in  their respective leagues (your team with an impressive  total of 4 wins all season) , and punishing  3 teams who won the majority of their games in theirs?

Alcohol consumption pre mid day never a great idea mate

Hopefully the Premiership clubs sue Hearts for negligence. If they'd run their club properly, they'd never have been bottom of the league, and wouldn't be depriving the top drawer of the Maroon Poond at such a difficult time.

Absolute Rangers levels of entitlement. There's going to be a whole generation of Hearts fans who have to hear, "aww, are you heading back to the courts again?" whenever something doesn't go their way. How depressing.

What? You mean like voting on resolutions and accepting their outcome even if it's not the way that you voted and the chair of your club saying they would go with the 'football community' if that's what people wanted.....?

 

Yep, some people do seem to have an issue with that...

There were plenty of chances to reconstruct the leagues in a fair way to avoid punishing member clubs but the small minded clubs opted for self interest. This is the last resort.

And of course, there is zero self interest in Heart’s current crusade? 

Would Anne Budge be pursuing this crusade in the interests of integrity,  fairness and for the good of Scottish football if it was Hamilton Accies who ended up at the bottom of the pile when the league was stopped?

I'm not so sure, at least at the SPFL end. It's SFA rules that have the explicit 'go via arbitration or you'll get clobbered' language - but this is likely not an SFA member dispute since I don't think the SPFL is an SFA member. The SPFL rules, from I42 onward, seem to use something called 'Expert Determination' which doesn't come with a set of punishments and does make reference to Scots Law and the Court of Session. They might be technically within their rights to use the courts like this, though I can't imagine this will end up without consequences for them somehow...

The other possibility is that clubs can be voted out of the SPFL by a qualified resolution under Article 166. Not the same as a specific rule, of course, but if there was enough support amongst the other clubs, anybody could be expelled. Probably extremely unlikely to get enough support, though.

no....working capital is how much you have in the bank after allowing for all the liabilities your are due.  League payments are accounted for every season.  You don't really get this do you? You think the SPFL right now has a TSB account with £0.01 in it, don't you? which kind of sums up most of what you write about here.

No that's surplus cash. 

Working capital is how much you need to pay your bills, taking into account timing of incomings and outgoings.

Would not count on it ! ..
