I say I can't believe but it is Scottish football... It's not extra rights as such, it's denial of rights. Those members pre-2018/tier 5 and above get a vote, those not ticking either of those boxes don't and I believe they're trying to restrict voting rights even more. It wouldn't surprise me if they try to remove voting rights from those pre-2018 members not at tier 5 eg. Coldstream, Burntisland, Hawick RA, Golspie etc. They do not want the balance of power to shift from the SPFL clubs, it's a cartel.

Seems an apt description of it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems an apt description of it! When you think about it; there's an awful lot of anti's in this wee world of ours. Highlights just how fecked up we are as a species. Like a number of these bands probably none of the original line-up are still there. Maybe we need start an anti-forum where we discuss all the things we are against including the anti-forum. The anti-anti-forum if you like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be odd for them to vote Yes after saying this.. Quote We also took account of feedback from other stakeholders, supporters and considered the decades long relationships we’ve had with Junior and Highland League clubs, including clubs who are now established in the SPFL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Patterson Posted May 17, 2023 Author Share Posted May 17, 2023 You simply love to see it BUT quite disappointing there's been no official word from SPFL clubs. Falkirk, St Mirren, Morton and a couple of others said they would discuss it with fans a few weeks back, and there's been almost no chat since. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you browse through the forums for the SPFL there's hardly a peep about it. I suppose it's like that esteemed gent at Elgin stated that it didn't apply to them. Aye rite.

Shameful from the SPFL clubs, but many of them are offering lower rate season ticket renewals presently, which they may think is reason enough to keep quiet. 3 hours ago, welshbairn said: I haven't heard anyone on Sportsound or Sportscene mention it either. Many pundits on these programmes have a past with OF clubs, they know some supporters hold strong views on the subject and have possibly been told to avoid the topic. Also, by mentioning the proposals, they may awaken supporters who don't have much idea of the SFA/SPFL scheme. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
