I agree with most of your post that all clubs have self interest at Heart...............however I need to pull you up on this line (basically because its shite). No club (certainly none that I could think about, including Hearts who are perhaps the worst potentially affected in the Premiership) would be acting like Rangers have over the last few weeks. This is nothing to do with having a bit of fun at your expense on P&B, its pathetic and childish behaviour from one of Scotlands largest clubs. Why? If we disagree strongly with what's happening then we have every right to campaign against it. When it comes down to it there's only club with a grievance here who won't be bullied by the spfl over this. Obviously I'm biased In this but then again most opposition fans hardly look favourably on the Sevvies. In Scottish fitba it's rare for anyone to actually be neutral. 10 minutes ago, rainbowrising said: And that evidence is? Do you seriously think that I know the answer to that?

Yes, Sevco wanted a fair chance at finishing the league which still had a lot to play for with 9 games left. Hearts wanted a fair chance at avoiding relegation when they had 8 games to play, including games against relegation rivals. celtic wanted the title, statements from the captain, manager and CEO confirm this. Right now Motherwell get third place and a Europa place, maybe at Aberdeen's expense. Burrows would be foolish not to support the spfl here. Dundee United will want promoted out of the championship despite not winning it. St Mirren and Hamilton could avoid relegation if the spfl succeeds with this, they'll support the spfl for their own interests. I could go on and describe more teams motivations but you get the picture. It's not just the dreaded Sevvies up to no good, we're doing the same thing as any other team would. Yeah, Celtic 13 points and 25 goals ahead of team with absolutely no form were desperate to end the season, get a grip. I've asked you several times to explain to me how you think sevco would overhall that, never once have you responded. Its a worldwide Pandemic with absolutely no sign of football being played, again I've asked you how to end the season amicably and again you have failed to give me any response. Yes there is lots wrong but dont tell me sevco care two jots if Dundee United get promoted or not.. Edit: my point is sevco are only doing this to stop Celtic winning the league and to try and dress it up as anything else is utter nonsense.

Of course you do - its the statement bingo, allegations of bullying (which nobody, even in private, has corroborated) and this "dossier" which I imagine is less smoking gun and more water pistol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're still missing the point and fixating on Sevco rather than most teams having objectives which in some cases will conflict with other clubs. Rangers, Hearts, Dundee United, celtic, St Mirren, Motherwell, Hamilton, Partick etc, all have points to make. If you can get away from concentrating solely on Sevco it would make discussion easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have never quoted me directly when I've asked you that question and I dont read all your posts... if its so easy to find any chance you could quote it and post again. Thanks. I have asked you that question several times also. Seeing how you haven't seen or found it with your wonderful search capabilities, have a go now... how do you think we can end the season playing football? I have acknowledged already several times yes it's a tough one to take and lots of teams have plenty to play for.. rangers dont and are the least affected by this yet are screaming the loudest like children offering absolutely no solutions only vague threats..

Dons_1988 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 54 minutes ago, bennett said: A lot of it depends on what the evidence is and whether or not other clubs care. There still needs to be investigation over the vote fiasco. and not just Spfl directors doing their own Q&A. This is the first time that we've followed through a complaint against the authorities, usually it's just a statement then nothing. Yet we're trusting the 'incompetents' to deliver something as complex as reconstruction. Well yes, no one is arguing that there should be an investigation. Extent, timing and prioritisation is the debate. Rangers want to prioritise it over everything else so the evidence better be good. If Rangers have been so convinced of their incompetence for so long then shame on them for waiting until now to act on it substantively. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
