Interesting take Mathematically it would obviously not be over, but we are at crunch time and if we can’t start picking up points very soon it is highly unlikely that we will do later on. Worrying thing is that St Mirren and Hamilton now look like they can score goals and aren’t conceding too many. Really hoped Ross County would slide too, but that doesn’t look too likely now. We’ve barely won any games over the last 15 months, and now need to win more games than we have over that period in the next couple of months. Extremely tough but not impossible.

That’s pretty old yeh it was from the AGM as someone asked the question but she said they would do one if felt necessary. so now we are expecting there should be one in place but not heard anything Atleast we know the majority of players have relegation clauses in their contracts - probably a lot of the first team including any of the new players and Naismith - perhaps they have had enough and want to leave and see relegation as an easy way out their contract for free?!

Can someone explain to me exactly what a relegation clause is? Does it mean the player is released from his contract if we are relegated, e.g. we'll lose Naismith, Boyce etc immediately? But does it cut both ways and also mean we can release players from their contracts in the same circumstances, e.g Damour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboGraham Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 39 minutes ago, Natural Orders said: yeh it was from the AGM as someone asked the question but she said they would do one if felt necessary. so now we are expecting there should be one in place but not heard anything. 11 matches to go and the entire relegation picture still in our hands; what exactly are you looking for our CEO to publicly say about contingency? The precedent for relegated clubs is for some or all of the management team, players and a level of support staff leave. Budgets are adjusted and reduced accordingly. You have to assume we would do something similar. Why would you expect, need or want to hear public confirmation of this? What would the benefit be for us (or more specifically the manager and players) to "hear" right now that many of them will be looking for new employment should they fail to avoid relegation? Do you think the CEO publicly confirming that many will be looking for new jobs is going to help or hinder the team spirit, focus and effort required to avoid relegation? Would it suggest the CEO is not supporting and backing the management and players by publicly discussing contingency that may not be needed? Have Hamilton, or any other at risk club in any league or division, publicly released their relegation contingency plan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
