That sounds exactly like something a Rangers fan would concoct. They've been peddling the story "Liewall" is going around offering cash pretty much solidly over the past few days.

It might well be. Twitter rumours are some part time sides are already done in terms of money, and still have a months wages to pay before the furlough money is received. 

Until something is voted on, money won't be handed out for final league position.

So as we stand, Dundee, by refusing to either accept this proposal, or reject the proposal, are helping send these clubs to their death. If you don't want these plans, just reject them so the next proposal can be worked on. Dragging it out helps nobody, and harms everyone.

Holy f**k, 20 odd pages since I last logged in. What’s the outcome? Has the proposal failed or do we still think it’s ok to hand titles/promote teams who have not won anything and relegate teams who are not mathematically relegated? 

Yup,  it’s what all decent minded fans are hoping for.

They lost Dundee’s vote which was apparently a no vote? Who knows what to believe.

It's absolutely mental but I've long since stopped being surprised by anything Scottish football throws up. It's batshit crazy.

Elgin reckon they're in a better position than other League One/Two sides, but theyll "comfortably run out of money before September", if they don't have to pay any wages until then.

Montrose didn't think they'd even get through to the furlough payments without fans having to raise money to pay wages.

Those are from their official accounts on twitter, from 2 weeks ago. Montrose fans have raised a couple of thousand pounds since then.

Clubs will die this Summer, regardless of this vote, but lengthening the entire process is simply starving them for even longer. I've no idea what Dundee have to gain from not just rejecting the proposal if they don't like it. Its too late to renegotiate it considering every other club has voted. You'd be aswell just rejecting it then putting a new proposal up for a vote.

Thousands dying but still content to put one over their rivals.

What's stopping the SPFL just voting to hand out the minimum payments for each league to clubs - or whatever proportion of that they have right now?

Their own rules are stopping them from doing it right now. They could definitely propose a motion to change that though.
