The fine doesn't go towards other club's legal costs, and the SFA disciplinary hearing is entirely separate from the arbitration. The question of costs awarded is part of the arbitration that's still to be ruled on, according to Dundee United FC's statement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoey Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Icing on the cake for me would be 8gamestogo coming on here and apologising for his raft of monotonous, repetitive posts which have been proved to made up nonsense. I live in hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmen Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 BBC has been updated with cracker of a line... Hearts and Thistle also wanted up to £10m in compensation, but could now face paying costs, with arbitration continuing for "submissions about expenses". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 It wasn't really ever feasible to actually overturn relegation but a unanimous 'get this shite in the fucking bin' has made me very happy. It took a plunger and an expensive plumber but this particularly rancid jobby has finally flushed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I imagine the good people at Stranraer FC must be thinking "Thank f**k we didn't get involved, eh?"If would be funny as f**k if Hearts and Thistle were booted out, which ended up saving Stranraer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorky Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 It was always going to go this way, at least now this is over Hearts, and their supporters can actually get back to the football. I still think it was a waste of time, money and energy and for me no winners. Should have moved on after the set of votes and concentrates on next season. I can understand the feeling of those effected by the decision, I would feel the same way but we live in unprecedented times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I will admit, I have called this incorrectly. While thinking if it went to court they'd have been given short shrift, I was of the mind that the arbitration panel may have favoured some form of compensation. I'm happy that this has been proven incorrect. What I will say is it must be a sickener to the decent Hearts support on here. Not the trolling muppets but the ones who have had to sit back and watch their club hit "slow motion car crash" mode. I do genuinely feel a bit for them. For the rest? Aye, well they can easily do one. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainbowrising Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Do Hearts not have to find some fundamental wrong in the process and outcomes of arbitration in order to go back to court? After all they agreed to it. They cant play the 'it's no fair' card again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Quote Dundee United has decisively won a challenge by Heart of Midlothian and Partick Thistle (collectively, ‘the Petitioners’) in which they had sought to reverse the Club’s promotion to the SPFL Premiership. Dundee United welcomes the decision of the Arbitral Tribunal (the “Tribunal”) which was issued today on the following terms: “The tribunal appointed in terms of Scottish Football Association Article 99 issued its decision today. It unanimously held that the challenges to the Written Resolution of 15 April 2020 failed, and that the SPFL were entitled to pass, and give effect to, the Written Resolution and all that flowed from it. Accordingly it refused to grant any of the orders sought by Heart of Midlothian FC and Partick Thistle FC and continued the arbitration for submissions about expenses.” The effect of the Tribunal decision is that Dundee United WILL be an SPFL Premiership club for Season 2020/21 and Dundee United WILL kick off its Premiership season on 1 August with a fixture against St Johnstone at Tannadice. https://www.dundeeunitedfc.co.uk/news/6534/CLUB-STATEMENT.html#.Xx7JsVZO-UI.facebook Edited July 27, 2020 by welshbairn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely fantastic stuff. Partick are worse in my eyes. They cowered behind Hearts, letting them be the focus for all the deserved flack while believing and wanting the exact same thing Hearts did.

I agree on the time, money and energy but I would say there are definitely winners. About 95% of the posters on this thread to begin with. As a Falkirk fan, it's rare I have anything to be pleased about but right now, I feel like we've just won the cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
