You can't actually 'think' you're being smug - you either choose to be smug or don't. So even at the second time of asking your attempted comeback still makes absolutely f**k all sense. Thanks for playing anyway. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God save Premiership greed and general self interest. Whoever chose the working party weren't daft, the pick was to guarantee conflict. They didn't really have any leverage at all though, as these talks have shown. The only SPFL clubs who had anything to gain from reconstruction were Hearts, Inverness, Thistle, Falkirk and Edinburgh City, while there are 11 Premiership clubs who have absolutely nothing to gain and could always quite happily go "lol no" as they have done today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another minter from you. All that's missing is a picture of Michael Portillo on a train and we have a full house of Virginton boredom. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 6 top flight heroes voting against reconstruction. Well done to that 6, IMO. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could manage the brazen, irony-free swagger of a club that is acting entirely out of self-preservation, accusing other clubs of acting entirely out of self-preservation. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budge has always had snidey wee condescending digs at Dempster in the press such as "they can over to see how it was done", pish like that, whereas Hibs say nowt. I'd like to think Dempster was biding her time. Will hopefully find out soon enough - this is turning out to be like an episode of Coronation Street. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was naive enough to think that enough clubs would consider revitalising Scottish football for when it eventually relaunches would be a worthwhile goal. The same old might not be enough when people have got used to finding other things to do on a Saturday afternoon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next season will see Hamilton move ahead of them in time spent in the top flight since the reorganisation. Their deluded fanbase and board thinking they are a top flight club is laughable. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye staying in or going for 60 minutes exercise is far far better than watching Falkirk. What exactly are you doing right now on a Saturday afternoon that is better than football? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
