Diamonds are Forever Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 The most ludicrous bit of Budge's statement is in the Summary where she accepts that clubs have the right to self-interest and vote accordingly, just as she did. Then in the next paragraph gets absolutely raging at clubs showing self-interest and blames the whole thing on those clubs. Bizarre behaviour. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I understand why Hearts fans are upset by the recent events. But, ffs take the relegation, boot out lots of the pish players, accept it will cost a few quid. You will still have a massive budget by Champs standards and get promoted in one season, imo. Suggestions by Leslie Deans and Anne Budge that the season cant be deemed over are embarrassing, especially when coming from someone with a legal qualification. Its not tricky to google the definition section of the SPFL rules and regulations. "Season means the period of the year commencing on the date of the first League Match in a Season and ending on the date of the last League Match in the same Season or otherwise as determined by the Board and which excludes the Close Season" These radges should be nowhere near football clubs if they interpret this any other way. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I'm surprised that more ICT fans aren't bothered by the fact that their club's CEO is acting in the interests of Rangers. Explains why Ewan Murray is a quivering, seething mess though. Hearts relegated and his pal's team have been publicly humiliated over their EXPLOSIVE dossier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted May 10, 2020 Author Share Posted May 10, 2020 There's a lot in the Inverness statement, but it throws up loads of questions. A cynic might suggest that they're angry that reconstruction failed because they knew they would be a beneficiary as they would have went up. Not sure why they didn't just name Dundee, as they were in no way subtle with their references towards Dundee's vote. Also their insinuation that big bad Brechin have somehow managed to sway everyone to avoid their relegation is disingenuous pish. A lot of folk seem to buying the nonsense that Brechin hold some sort of mad power. Even if that were true (it isn't), they haven't been relegated because there is no automatic relegation from League 2. If there was, they'd be gone. All playoffs have been punted, which is why Brechin have been 'saved'. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you happy with the behaviour of Neil Doncaster and the SPFL board over the last month? There has now been 9 clubs to publicly criticise them but you make this about the big bad Rangers again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be forgotten that the only reason they are staying up is the league structure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Do you think this has been handled well? Not at all. The spfl has been a shit show for ages.But everyone knows this is all about trying to null and void the season to stop 9 in a row.But rangers want unsecured loans and 2nd place prize money for null and void season.Are you also saying that the view of 9 clubs should outweigh the view of 33 clubs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 The Caley live rent free in so many peoples head. Naturally it’s Celtic and Dundee fans mainly. Given they’ve been our bitches for over a decade. Throwing Scot Gardiner into the mix makes it even more savoury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 You can taste the salt in that Caley statement. Lots of invective but they get a few basic points spectacularly wrong, and complain about leaks when the author of that statement is responsible for one of the biggest leaks of the whole thing. Hard to see how any testimony offered by them will stand up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
