Lebowski Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I can only imagine the relief in your wee Hibby face. If your imagination is that good you should try imagining 11 Premiership clubs voting to get less money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the two new teams at the bottom of League 2 getting no money at all now? Also not convinced that Accies, County, St Mirren etc would go for this - instead of a guaranteed £1.125m for 12th in the Premiership next season, they'd now only be looking at £475k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey! Ho! Jambo! Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Ann Budge, who'd have her back to the pitch if it wasn't for Craig Levein turning her round, is involved in restructuring Scottish Football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A larger league would suit us tbf, more teams able to find safety away from the relegation zone and it might be the boost that we need. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the prize pot for next season? I've seen £32m somewhere, which would be an increase of £7m (28%). That would leave a fair bit of room to bump up the percentages positions 13 and 14 (and add money for positions 43 and 44 if that's part of it) while still representing a significant increase in cash on this season for all clubs. Still, why would you vote for a 22/23% increase when you can have 28%? Now that the season's been resolved, there's zero incentive for most Premiership clubs to go for this, which is why Dundee's motivations are suspicious here. The only way league reconstruction had any chance was with a no vote, meaning clubs might have to compromise. If Budge's track record is anything to go by she'll make an arse of these proposals anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well ok you would have to redistribute for the 43rd and 44th team in the system. How much percentage wise does the 42nd team get just now? It would also reduce the risk of those sides being relegated if the expansion is permanent. FWIW I don't think it will be agreed.

You think that rangers would vote yes to help teams that voted against their instructions to do anything to avoid awarding titles? Only needs one other team in top league to vote against. And it wont happen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
