Shaggy2 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 8 minutes ago, S Form said: To be honest I think voiding their season is the solution that will cause the fewest issues. Clubs usually participate in sports competitions in the knowledge that the governing body makes the rules and can amend those rules at any time it sees fit. When the SFA or SPFL makes a decision it would be very unusual for a member club to challenge that decision in court. UEFA can suspend countries if their clubs are taking legal action against their association. This looks unavoidable all over Europe. To keep the peace in Scotland, give us or United £10m to play in the 2nd tier. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally nothing has been arithmetically decided yet so teams changing leagues is impossible I would say. Raith, Falkirk and Cove Rangers would go nuts if United went up and they never. Likewise Partick and Stranraer who could feasibly avoid drops assuming they were the ones to be relegated with 8/9 games to go. It’s either somehow played to completion or it’s null and void and start again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More people die from the seasonal flu every year in Scotland. This will die out just as quick as itcomes That is not the “facts” according to the leading medical scientists. They forecast that around 80% of us will contract this virus unlike winter flu rates which run around 10% of the population. It may not kill you but you will be ill and unable to work with a devastating effect on the country. As announced yesterday the plan is to slow the infection rates so we do not have one big explosion that would swamp our medical and public services.
