What do they tangibly stand to lose? 5 home gates, tv money, prize money (although they should have a parachute payment)? Don’t see how that comes to 8. What else am I missing? Successful businesswoman Ann Budge originally claimed it was down to the loss of gate receipts, prize money and the like. When the Championship was curtailed to 27 rather than 36 games (which I believe is still the case with them starting in October) she lumped another couple of million onto the bill. Then some wag, no doubt the Gollum-esque Deans, convinced her that she should claim for multiple seasons in the Championship just in case they don't make it out first try - somewhere in there they came up with the 8 million figure. It's doubtful whether we will ever see the figures. They could be leaked of course, but the only way they would need to be published officially is if they put them to the court in terms of a compensation claim. As it is, the court case, I believe, is currently only on the matter that the SPFL fucked up calling the league and thus promotion/relegation is effectively nulled (hence the citing of Rovers, United, Cove - Interestingly no citing of Celtic for being awarded the Premiership title but then we all know she shat the bed there). I don't think it's possible for her to get the court to force reconstruction, so if she wins the "youse fucked up" argument then that's when we'll see what mental back of a fag packet maths they've been working on. I am no expert btw, it's been too difficult following proceedings while wiping the tears of laughter from my eyes, but that's my take on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it goes to compo, it might hit their prize money, but that goes for all the SPFL clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, could he say the vote to end the season was flawed, so there should be another vote? Thats a waste of time as you'd still get the same result..... they've pissed off to many other clubs now to get a different result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the same, but the absence of a jury may mean it's not taken quite so seriously by the judge. "The primary function of CCA 1981 is to protect the integrity of active court proceedings. It prohibits the media from publishing information that will prejudice ongoing legal cases and in particular trials before juries." Note the "in particular". BTW civil cases may also have a jury, with only 12 jurors in Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's ridiculus, Hibs are not claiming for compensation for Hearts not being the SPFL and losing the derby. What if Celtic had been relegated.
