RandomGuy. Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Heard you're waiting until the 3rd of May, then getting Albert Kidd to announce you're voting to relegate Hearts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srw Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) The only way I can see this ending... The SPFL admit that the leagues wont be finished. They offer league reconstruction to be implemented, Utd and ICT up, Hearts avoid relegation. This then secures Hearts and ICTs vote, so this will get passed at the new vote. Dundee look like they have held out for the greater good, but were bypassed. Nelms can spin as a moral victory.

How do you sort out League Two if you make a 14 team top tier? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowrising Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Cant see how a moral victory works. Our statement was based around economics not some heroic falling on our sword for Hearts and the DABS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely zero to do with Utd, they deserve to go up, however the bottom placed team deserve to go down, but will it be Hearts, thats where its difficult. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom team with months remaining certainly dont deserve to go down. Would be interesting to see your view if Dundee were two points adrift at the bottom of the league with a game in hand and ruled to be relegated. In what way is that fair? Playing one less game and being judged on previous points. The -25 season we'd be relegated. Anything can happen in football and that's why we love it. You simply cannot hand titles and relegations out across the board. The games integrity will be shot and for me I'd never really recover the love for the game after the greed shown by some. Nobody deserves to be punished cause of a global crisis that has nothing to do with football. Thank you. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your whole post isn't needed if you read my final 4 words. Hearts arent massively behind, so you cant relegate them IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that all clubs have voted purely for their own good is rather depressing. The anger of opposition fans that Dundee haven't looked after number one without thought of others has painted a clear picture aswell. Dundee FC as always doing the right thing and showing some heart for the clubs who are set to have years of financial troubles because of the chinese virus. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts and Patrick don't deserve to go down (yet), Stranraer and Brechin almost certainly do, probably 99% certain of it. Utd and Cove, deserve to go up, Raith don't (yet). Three of the final four sentences are nonsense, absolute utter tripe, similar to sentences by Utd fans in other threads. Bang the drum of tribalism all you like if it makes you happy though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry BoredumGuy but dont ever think you can quote me again on this site. I've never been quite so offended in my puff. Go on, f**k off. But first. Not the four who would suffer most. Wonder why the league 1 and 2 votes were combined? Are they still waiting on the top flight team and League 1 team to vote or have they accepted their abstain of vote as a No. They should hurry up and do the same with Dundee. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, but 80% of the most vulnerable clubs voted for it, and one of those who didnt are a Falkirk club desperate to force through reconstruction that sees them promoted, so who are you thinking you're helping? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are the most vulnerable clubs in Scotland with the continuing Chinese virus implications? You cant simply gather together league 1 and 2 as a whole and put them all in the same category. Give me figures and potential losses from this to back up your arguement, not quotes from the daily record or Tom English. It's been said Inverness are one of the clubs really struggling but they voted against it. The only reason clubs voted for it is out of self interest, nothing to do with needing the cash. Simply for self preservation in their leagues - either to save them from any potential drop in leagues or being too far away from either end that it really didnt matter. As Nelms pointed out in the statement yesterday evening , some of the money can be handed out now whilst abiding to SPFL regulations. I'd much rather listen to him than a Songs of Praise boxset fiend who sits in his sweaty vest all day hyperventilating over pie and bovril.

Fifespud Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I’ve absolutely no idea what Nelms is trying to achieve here but I’m 150% behind him. If you’re stupid enough not to take out pandemic insurance you deserve all you get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
