Back to normal today. Chick Young living in the past. Thommo and McCann not having a clue and giving a pretty irrelevant player perspective. Only Stewart Gilmour gave a wee insight from a Chairman's view.

What was needed was current chairmen and journalists instead of pundits that aren't even keeping up to date.

"Aye Broxburn are amatuer" from the guest. Fair enough he makes a mistake.

Only for Chick Young to interrupt "No they're Junior". Fucking hell...

Brian McLauchlin said at start that the voting 75% of last week could apply to reconstruction provided money didn't alter (Ordinary vs Qualified Resolution).

However, if the SPFL is expanded outwith the usual promotion / relegation, then 90% (or 11:1) applies (and Budge has just said 42 to 44 is the discussion, and with no playoffs, it is not the rules governing promotion / relegation):

Quote

A Qualified Resolution, shall be required for the passing of a resolution in respect of the following Reserved Matters:

62.5: any expansion of the League by the addition or admission of new members (other than as a result of the operation of the Rules governing promotion and relegation to and from the League.

You can't realistically change the number of teams in the to flight without altering the money anyway, the gulf between what 13th and 14th get right now in the Championship and current top flight clubs is enormous.

Aye but it will need to be 11/1 if Kelty and Brora are admitted, not 9/3 (which he has just repeated) because of Artigle 62.5 (a Qualified Resolution).

I'm surprised at how poorly he is coming across tbqh

So, Dave Cormack says his club were undecided at 4.40 on Friday, was then told by Doncaster that their vote wasn't required - they then voted yes.

Did I hear him say the resolution was forced down their throats? edit - Tom English has just confirmed that Cormack did indeed say that.

He definitely said it went through too quickly. 

I definitely heard him say that there needs to be an investigation. 

He said a lot of stuff, though.

He was told their vote didn't matter, as the Premiership already had the number of votes required.

Surely that can't be right?

 

Unprofessional and  unethical are two words  which spring to mind.

Tom English has just been fed a juicy bone! He won't let go now.

I've  actually been shocked at Tom English during this,  completely gobsmacked at how he's went after the spfl.

Similar with Michael Stewart (lesser extent)

Best switch sportsound on now.

Why, though?

Because Cormack had been calling him asking to be kept in the loop. He's just confirmed that, despite Tom English trying to get him to say something else.

We now have done spoon from Falkirk talking about completing .the league.
