Fucking shocking how bitter the dabs are to have voted against us getting a shot at the playoffs. Bitter as f**k. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. So really one harsh winter month of postponements could have killed off all these clubs in the past? Wise up. None of these clubs are having to spend money just now due to the furlough scheme, various business grants and their rent safe for 3 months. It's not us withholding the money either so go and blame Doncaster, not us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they not do that throughout the season, and then only the final payment is based on the extra amount on the final positions? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 It wasn't enough, It wasn't enouuuugh, 33 votes, It wasn't enough!You were literally on the verge of a meltdown earlier when you thought it was going through. We’ll see what happens after the stalemate of a few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 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.Bollocks. The SPFL could have chosen to make an additional partial payout if they wanted - they chose not to. Given their previous I would trust any promises of restructuring with a huge shovel of salt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could definitely propose a motion to change that though. Exactly. Whatever happens, we're not playing by the rules as they stand. What i suggested is entirely possible and would almost certainly pass unanimously. Accusing Dundee of sending clubs to their deaths is a hysterical over reaction. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Going by some of the posts on here I can see a trip to Ruel Street on the cards.
