DeeTillEhDeh Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Hearts already receive “Compensation” in terms of the parachute fee. Your solution is literally the least likely of all possible outcomes.A point I repeatedly make. They should not get a penny more. If any clubs deserve compensation it is those who gave up the chance of promotion when playoffs were cancelled 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aim Here Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Wilbur said: Ann Budge FFS. Old Abraham Lincoln got it wrong where Hearts supporters are concerned. Apparently you can fool all of the people all of the time. Beg to differ. This looks very much like a 'some of the time' affair. There was already a bit of a Budge-oot movement before the lockdown, which stalled because her fighting words kept the moonhowlers onside. If the relegation arbiitration deliberation gives Hearts an unfavourable determination, I can well imagine that there'll be a lot of voices calling for an expeditious termination...

Clubs who were in the play-off spots also got their usual compensation for finishing in those spots, so why would they deserve any extra? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see a lot of games being postponed due to Covid... Hopefully teams will take it much more seriously now, I'm sure everyone let their guard down a bit as the weeks have gone by. Maybe it's best to have these issues now so they review the procedures and tighten them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Could be that the BBC are getting ready to try to be first to report the result. Brian McLaughlin seems to have a holding place ready for it on the website, this page originally had Hearts and Thistle insignia at the top, now replaced with "dsfas" whatever that means, probably "leave this alone, incoming". https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53526061?intlink_from_url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/scotland&link_location=live-reporting-story 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 FWIW, compensation at a fraction of what is being claimed, to Hearts & Thistle is an entirely fair outcome to all of this and would hopefully allow people to move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about haggling over compo you either think think that the reconstruction saga went according to SPFL rules or not, I don't see why my club should finance successful business woman Ann Budgies (below left) attempt to save face with the Hearts support for her miscalculation back in April - I'll bet your club feels the same! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
