All you are saying is "keep off the grass" Celtic will always put young talent out on loan they will always try to get the best they can get that will never change. If you take the best young talent in the country between the ages of 18 to 21 and put them in league 2 and call them anything you want, fecking glasga colts,perth colts,auld reekie colts it doesn't matter, the idea is to give them the best chance in the game the problem with you lot is you can't see passed the entrenched view. No-one's denying there aren't serious structural problems in the game, particularly with regard to youth development and competitiveness. The idea that somehow chucking colts teams into League 2 will make a difference, just because some other countries do it is nonsensical - a cursory glance at the number of FIFA A coaches and the quality of the coaching at U8 level and beyond will show where the main source of the problem is. And no entrenched views here - I want revolutionary change in Scottish football as much as anyone starting, as I said before, with an end to 11-1, at least an 18-team Prem, revenue sharing and limits on youth squad sizes to prevent stockpiling. You want to screw up the League "for the good of the game". What sacrifices are you prepared to make for it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ribzanelli Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 1 hour ago, The Tackle said: If it was any other club it would still be a shocking decision, it wouldn't be up to Ann Budge to pursue it, but I would like to think we would be on the side of that club. Ann Budge shouldn't have needed to even propose reconstruction as it's Neil Doncaster's role to look after all member clubs with a fair resolution. Surely it was in Hearts interests to have AB inside the reconstruction tent, pissing out though? Time was fairly tight but Rangers proved that a decent level of detail could be provided, albeit in a pishy proposal. Hearts totally failed to do that, basically submitting their reconstruction ideas on the back of a beer mat. A fairly basic breakdown of how the pain was going to be spread around, coupled with a bit less of a confrontational tone could probably have got a 14-10-10-10 format through for two years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also really suspicious that when the lots were drawn for who would take the fall that the three clubs in the relegation spots were picked.

If you have not won or secured a placing then tecnically you are not entitled to any payments, and certainly not more that a team that is placed below you. Guff. Technically, the league season lasts 38 games. We managed to change that though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dare say with 8 games to go, 3 places and 6 points separating us, it's highly unlikely. Had you said we could have easily ended up in a playoff, I'd be inclined to agree but the last win and the form we were in means that we were least likely of the 4 teams in the mix to be in 12th at the end. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
