Skyline Drifter Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 1 minute ago, craigkillie said: The original statement about the resolution already made a commitment to discussing league reconstruction, so this was always going to happen. Dundee have achieved the square root of exactly nothing here. Thats true in fact. Although one would imagine they must have received private assurances that it would be seriously considered, or at least more seriously than they obviously thought before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isnt and whatever happens the three champion sides will go up. I don't understand the first part of your sentence. Do you believe Ann Budge will do her utmost to keep Hearts up? She is now in a position of power here. It can still be fucked up, yes, but it's the best shot we have right now. Ball is in her court from here IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I’m starting to think John Nelms hasn’t actually achieved much more than handing his city rivals a league title and pissing off the **** and Partick. Funny that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did her last hare-brained proposal get on exactly? And with the league season wrapped up the default outcome in the event of reconstruction proposals failing will be to promote the league winners and relegate the bottom-placed shite. Certain clubs out of self-interest wanted a guarantee from the SPFL that reconstruction would take place before voting for the proposal on Friday: they didn't get it so withheld their yes vote. The SPFL agrees to set up a mere committee to make suggestions for reconstruction that still have to be approved by the usual supermajority mechanism and Dundee folds its hand in the most pathetic manner possible. A full-blown minter. Aye, that's totally what happened. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd expect Inverness and Dundee United to be better than Hamilton and St Mirren and above them in the table. Expect away. The bigger the league, the less chance Accies have of not being bottom. That's fact. They'll usually struggle to survive in a 12 team league. 14 teams increases their prospects. What the make-up is of that 14 team league... well it's not like the DABs and ICT have offered a great deal on the pitch in recent years hence their Championship status. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pointing out that going to 14 doesn't by itself mean that Accies are less likely to go down. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly haven't looked very hard then. Do you exclusively talk in daft cliches and tropes that someone else made up or do you have any thoughts of your own. I think it is possible for folk to support two teams, as loads of folk on here have an English team (although funnily they all tend to be the more successful ones). But I only support one team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bad chad Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) People keep saying that UEFA are going to have to cancel everything, as the seasons will be over. Do you not realise that several leagues have concrete plans to re-start in the near future? There are teams returning to training in the next few weeks in places. No way they'll cancel the whole thing - they'll have to do it on a case-by-case basis. Edited April 15, 2020 by bad chad Spelling 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
