So in other words not very similar to Smith at all. If you say so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Deary me that statement from the spfl If there is an independent enquiry into the vote and they are found to be bent as f**k which looks the case then what happens next? Could they reverse the decision and null and void like other countries have started doing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I vote if we don't accept any prize money/hand it back so we can get parachuted straight into the SPL. Incredible that Kelty have the gall to open a statement claiming to be believers of Sporting Integrity yet in the next breath be effectively offering to buy their place in the league. Apologies for, no doubt, re-opening a can of worms but what is the story with Kelty? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden Cowboy Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 2 hours ago, Shadwell Dog said: Spfl board statement is frankly cringeworthy. We had an investigation which said everything was cushty but as we're now going to have to have an egm we better start admitting that we made a complete arse of it but not deliberately it was because we didn't have enough folk. Honestly as amateurish as it gets ffs. That isn’t an SPFL statement or an SPFL board statement it is a joint statement by some members of the SPFL Board - and believe it or not that is an important distinction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that to prevent it being used against Doncaster and his sidekick in the independent investigation into the vote? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldnt really be on SPFL notepaper then if that's the case. Anyway its cringeworthy whoever it's from. Perhaps if they had come out and said something like this when cockwomble was trying to brush everything under the carpet it may have been different but we never heard a cheep from them then. Suddenly there's egm's called and investigations wanted and they've shat the nest. Edited April 28, 2020 by Shadwell Dog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvz2000 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 7 hours ago, Clyde01 said: That’s a totally different scenario though as every club has plenty of notice of what’s at stake and what they are playing for. You can’t just end a season and change the goal posts relegating mid-table sides. As has been stated many, many times why is 14-14-14 so attractive a model? We still play teams too many times, either 3 which is mega-shite or 4 (as now) in a split. It’s funny how teams are happy to end the league early and relegate the bottom team even if they had a chance of avoiding the drop, BUT when all of a sudden they might be affected it’s toys out the prom and shouts of “it’s no fair “ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
