Fife Saint Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 This is one situation where the Foundation of Hearts monthly pledges will come into their own. The club has guaranteed income. Perhaps other fans could look at setting up similar systems?What is the pledge value out of interest? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Would Hertz have really been relegated this season? Guess we'll never know. Too good to go down in the end, imo. Meanwhile, all the nothing clubs will toil financially as the FoH millions continue to roll in. Absolutely delicious chain of events. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how much that's changed, can't find a more up to date number. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd end up with- Celtic playing Rangers to decide who wins the league Motherwell vs Aberdeen for 3rd Livi v Hibs for 5th St Johnstone v Killie for 7th St Mirren v County for 9th Hamilton v Hearts for 11th Play them behind closed doors at Hampden over the course of a week, televise them all. Would you really want a title based on a one off game tho....don't think I could accept that tbh. It would have to be over a full season for it to count. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We deserve to go down. 2) Most football fans are absolute dafties. We all know this. There's more to football than one-eyed tribalism. I'm not dying to get relegated, but a decision must be made and I don't think we should kick up a fuss if it's decided we get the bullet. Could have avoided it by not being shite for a year and a half. Hearts should have the games and ability to escape relegation tho, strange post from a jambo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took one point from Hamilton and St Mirren recently. Can't play Hibs and Rangers every week, sadly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Is there someway to calculate the amount of *** seethe when we get handed the title?Will it be worse than the Hibs, Hampden goading? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Hearts getting relegated isn't ideal, but it's not a catastrophe either. We'd win a bit more often. Getting promoted is fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukDukGoose Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Not the biggest Derek McInnes fan ATM but I think he's spot on. If seasons are declared null and void then teams such as Leeds, Dundee United will take legal action within ten minutes of the decision being finalised. If seasons are declared completed then teams like Hearts, Villa etc will take legal action within ten minutes of the decision being finalised. Both scenarios will likely hold up the following season from starting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I am aware the regulations state that the season is classed as being the opening and closing dates of the stated season OR..... 'as determined by the SPFL Board...' in other words they can call the season as they see it. It is there in the regulations that teams signed up to. A court case could bomb right there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gianfranco Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Personally I’d finish the season and then in 2021 trial a summer football season or have a short season where we just play each other twice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say I am picking this up from other forums discussing it so dont have a direct link. Apparently in the SPFL rule book and what constitutes a season. Wouldn't be surprised as the SPFL have Board discretion loaded in to most things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the same token though, FPP is supposed to be an open and shut case yet there was no chance Man City would have missed next seasons Champions League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
