As before no real winners in this. If only there had been a sensible, workable alternative that punished no teams unfairly and rewarded some other teams not currently in this fight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 If only there had been a sensible, workable alternative that punished no teams unfairly and rewarded some other teams not currently in this fight.It would have been unfair if you hadnt been relegated after managing to only win 4 games in a season tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You "think" . Either way he certainly put the SPFL QC firmly in his place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why the fans of these two clubs feel the need to take sides in a dispute which has absolutely nothing to do with them. It was ever thus... Why change the habit of a lifetime? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stag Nation Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 9 minutes ago, 8GamesToGo said: Lord Clark made a point of saying we went about things the right way by delaying action unit reconstruction couldn't happen. No, he didn't. He said that "delaying action unit reconstruction couldn't happen" was reasonable and hadn't damaged their case, but that they went about things the WRONG way by going to court at all. That's why it's now subject to arbitration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) SFA: Don't take this directly to court. You are leaving yourself open to the possibility of a number of disciplinary actions as per the rules that you agreed to as member clubs. Hearts and Thistle: *Take it to court anyway* SFA: *Begins disciplinary proceedings* Hearts and Thistle: Edited July 14, 2020 by djchapsticks 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hearts and PT let that fly, does that not give the SPFL and co free reign to do whatever the f**k they want? Now it's intimidation during the arbitration process. All completely competent though lads! intimidation.... f**k off.... both Hearts & Partick have been holding a gun to scottish footballs head. Did you honestly expect there to be no retribution? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As before no real winners in this. I think most of them are just too far up the Budge to realise they have been played like chumps by their board, lapping up the nonsense that has come out of the club and ignoring the bigger issues of why they are deservedly now a seaside league team going to shitholes like Arborath. 9 minutes ago, 8GamesToGo said: He also said (in not so many words) "No funny business or it's back to court."

Stag Nation Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 So Hearts and PT will have to go before an SFA panel to explain why they went to court. Answer - "We didnae trust an SFA panel". That will go down well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
