"The ICT Thread - From the Premiership to the Seaside"

No don’t understand the logic - not having a pop at ICT but pointing out that if SPFL has a situation where an entry level club wins HL or LL the ICT situation as regards licence may become moot and a promotion applicant might expect that a derogation would be more readily available when the SPFL already has entry level clubs in it.  Last season all 42 were bronze or better

Derogations are always available. All 42 were not bronze or better at 31 March 2024

Not sure what that means but if any club understands how flexible the SPFL can be to protect their current and even past members, it should be Cowdenbeath.

First it was Arbroath then it was Queen of the South, then Falkirk and now it’s Cowdenbeath fans. Everyone wants a bit of the Caley baby! 

Your club is currently the biggest binfire in Scottish football.  I still don't understand why your fans are so surprised that fans of other clubs take an interest in the topic.

Yes but that was the application date and then other deadlines come into play.  You seem to think that derogations are just easily plucked off the shelf - it’s not as simple as that

How many clubs have had derogations denied?

You should charge for the pleasure

That wasn't the deadline for SPFL clubs to have a Bronze licence, it was 1 July 2024 (which they all met).

Best of luck to ICT. It's always unpleasant to see clubs in financial turmoil. Surely now you can have a CVA and wipe 95% of your debts, though? Most likely you'll be relegated, but at least the club will survive. Hopefully the city will rally round the club and it will flourish once again.

Even Ross Tokely instantly sussed that Gardiner was a knob

He's been very quiet until there was a serious kicking going on to throw his boot in.

Clubs could apply for a derogation up to 1 July. 

In any case the board have latitude to do what they want. They might have flexed some muscle over Edinburgh because nothing of value would be lost.

The idea they would expel ICT is for the birds.
