Totally agree with you. Anybody who is in a team with Lithgow is unlucky. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andylivi1 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Year after year of abject failure in the championship has really taken its toll on the Falkirk fans eh ? I don’t blame them, it must be difficult seeing a team come up from league 1 with 800 fans get promoted out of the league in one season and into the premiership.

Guest Flash Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) 57 minutes ago, Savage Henry said: County also had a situation where Martin Woods supposedly had a vesting option after a certain number of games. He met it, but the club told him to sling his hook, and, after quite a bit of sulking by both sides, off he did trot to do ever so well with Partick. In American sports there are player options (the player's choice), club options (the team's choice) mutual options (both need to agree) and vesting options (based on appearances). I'm guessing from what you say, options in Scottish football are all obliged to be either player options or mutual options? I can remember Dundee United in the 90s signing Alex Cleland or Gary Bollan to a 2 year contract with a seven year club option (or something equally ridiculous), getting hauled up in front of the courts, and that bringing an end to the club only options. In theory, though, I don't have a massive problem with any kind of single-season option in a contract. Player Regulation 41 in the Annex to the SPFL Rules says clubs aren’t allowed to include an option to extend a contract without the consent of the player when the contract was entered into before the player’s 23rd birthday. Regulation 31 says contracts generally can’t exceed 5 years plus the unexpired portion of the season they are entered into. Not sure if these regulations are still current or if there is anything that over-rides them. https://spfl.co.uk/docs/067_324__rulesofthespflasat19_january_2018_1518083042.pdf Pages 118 and 120 for regulations 31 and 41.

LIVIFOREVER Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Our Official site hinting even more obviously than Byrne that there will be big signing announcement at lunchtime, *checks to make sure it is June the first and not April*, this has to be Byrne signing back up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears to be a mistake made exclusively by terrible posters, so it would be a great way to improve the overall standard of poster on the site. If we could get this carried over to the Livi forums as well that would be fantastic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should throw in Livingstone, Livvie, Livvi and Livvy, I mean it's bad enough they can't spell Livi properly but sticking 2 V's in is just a bannable offence imo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ferranti and Meadowbank patter stopped being funny about 18 years ago tbh , I bet you'll still crack up at the Grangemouth patter in 18 years time though. Accies are a kindred spirit, hope we both stay up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Wow, didn't see it being for 2 years, excellent news.I think Pittman was only a one year deal, but his contract wont be valid now we've been promoted and he'll negotiate a new one, wonder if he'll get it extended to 2 years too.Just need Halkett now and we're cooking by gas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
