They're doing it with the top flight and as alluded to by a member of the SPFL board (Stewart Robertson) we can still dish out the money? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must work together with a unity of purpose for the betterment of the Scottish game. Scottish football must work together for the common good of every club, their staff and supporters. Any attempts to railroad changes to existing rules or run roughshod over corporate governance will be opposed in the strongest possible terms. We must allow decisions to be made in a rational, fair and balanced manner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it wasn't aimed at me, but I've given my proposal for what I think would be the fairest way to continue early on in the thread. But, I do believe that we should aim to dish out all the money we can on and then wait until there is no chance for continuation of playing. That's my sticking point - If they can wait for a chance to complete the fixtures in the top flight, there will be a way to do so in every division thus ensuring fairness. If, as expected, football can't continue within the time frame, then this would be a more viable (But still shite) option.

RandomGuy. Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Also, someone ( @Ludo*1) needs to start a thread where they keep track of all the official statements and it's easy to see who will be voting what. Already got Hearts, Rangers, Stranraer against it, and Raith saying theyll vote for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) Stranraer's statement amounting to 'och that's unfair' while recognising that only two clubs out of 42 stand to lose out. So what's their magic alternative proposal that leaves one or no clubs at all being inconvenienced? If they don't have one then the proposal is clearly the best possible outcome for a really shite situation.

D'Jaffo Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Also, someone ( [mention=12782]Ludo*1[/mention]) needs to start a thread where they keep track of all the official statements and it's easy to see who will be voting what. Already got Hearts, Rangers, Stranraer against it, and Raith saying theyll vote for it.I really don’t see why any teams barring Partick, Stranraer, Rangers, Hearts, Dundee and Falkirk would vote against it tbh. Dundee United, Raith and Cove will all be promoted and everyone else gets their prize money that they will desperately need. I’ve no idea what the legal standings will be but I’d imagine the SPFL might be somewhat protected by the fact they’ve allowed a vote to take place rather than just calling it themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 United probably do deserve to go up on balance. But Hearts, Partick Thistle (Especially them) at this point don't deserve to be relegated on the basis that they are within a game or 2 of survival and in Partick Thistle's case, the league isn't even 75% done for them. There's not gonna be a way that pleases everyone, and if this vote goes through, we'll just have to accept it but I don't think this is even close to being the fairest of a shite bunch of options IMO. It's scandalous for the likes of Partick Thistle and a kick in the teeth when they feel that the top flight can wait an extra period of time.Reckon they're only waiting an extra period of time before they call off the Scottish Premiership because they're currently being consulted by legal authorities that what they're doing is lawful. Cause as we know Hearts and Rangers will absolutely hound the SPFL with legal action. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd certainly have a wee laugh if that happened. Have a wee laugh right now: the present season is United's fourth in the Championship. I don't like the proposal, must be one of the few United fans in the 'no' category. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
