Footballfirst Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) Dundee could decide Dundee United’s promotion fate after a day of chaos in Scottish football. Courier Sport understands the Dark Blues are the Championship side whose vote on the SPFL resolution to “call” the season has not yet been counted. As a result, with the plan having been passed by Premiership, League One and League Two Clubs, Dundee now hold the power to decide whether the League’s plan succeeds or fails. A vote in favour would see the season terminated in Scotland’s bottom three divisions, prize money distributed, and Dundee United declared Championship title winners. A vote against will send the SPFL back to the drawing board. The Tangerines were tonight staying tight-lipped on the situation. However, their city rivals issued a lengthy statement in which they notably failed to confirm which way they had voted – if indeed they had at all – then called for an alternative approach. “As we all know, clubs are struggling at the moment,” read the Dark Blues’ communique. “The language in the current (SPFL) proposal condemns clubs to be financially worse off than they already are as we sit here today. This has been difficult to accept. “The SPFL board and executive freely admit that they focused on the sporting merit of the proposal and did not take into consideration any financial fall out to their member clubs. “Fundamentally, we believe that in these exceptional and uncertain times, no member club should be worse off as a result of this proposal than they are today. “The current proposal will see member clubs cumulatively have in the region of £3.5-£4 million pounds of lost revenue. “Amongst the member clubs there have been numerous discussions of the SPFL’s offer as well as viable, equitable proposed alternatives that could see, potentially, a neutral outcome for all clubs involved if the season cannot be finished. “In all cases, current placement monies could be distributed to the member clubs in very short order while maintaining all SPFL obligations. “Make no mistake; we would have to work quickly and diligently to ensure that members’ current needs are met and that the democratic process is followed, but it is achievable.” An SPFL spokesperson added: “It is very important that clubs consider carefully the resolution and we are grateful to those clubs who have voted already. “With the Ladbrokes Premiership and Ladbrokes Leagues One and Two divisions each having approved the resolution, we await the voting slip from the one Ladbrokes Championship club that has yet to vote. “We will provide an update as soon as we are in a position to do so.” The SPFL set an initial deadline of 5pm for clubs to vote. However it is understood league rules give members 28 days to vote on resolutions – and Dundee are keen to weigh up their options. It is believed Partick Thistle and Inverness Caley Thistle were the two Championship sides to vote against the plan. As a result, Dundee appear to be in a position to set whichever agenda they please in negotiations with the SPFL.

This ***** Chris McLaughlin has just said live on tv that one club in the championship haven’t voted when Dundee have stated categorically that they have and scuppered the master plan.

Under the proposal they drop from 6th to 7th and that’s a prize money drop of over £100k added to probably 2*2000 derby fans at roughly £25 each plus all the other spend at Easter road, plus their own fans who only walk up for derbies plus sold out hospitality and we are talking about close to £350-400k down. As I said in another post I dont get their decision to support it. Worse than I thought. That's some drinks bill for a relegation party.

I said tight away, this was not for right now, but I kept getting quoted and asked questions. I'll drop off tonight and leave you guys to reflect, but do take this. I personally don;t think Hearts should be relegated and have said very clearly that if the season cannot be completed, then the leagues must be reconstructed for the one season. And do you think Partick Thistle and Stranraer should be relegated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionDJambo Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 At least we now know who our friends are, or in this case aren’t. What an absolutely comical stitch up. Talk about making sure you get the result you want. And some people will still think it’s all fair and above board on the pitch too. Scottish football is as corrupt as it comes. Any mealy mouthed sympathy for the clubs who have been shafted, like Dempster has tried to cover herself with, should be replied to with a clear and unambiguous message from Hearts saying we won’t forget. Has any other league in Europe actually talked about relegating any of their clubs yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts being treated badly here and the club and its fans won't forget who voted for the coin and for us to lose 3/4 million pounds when there is actually 8 games left.i actually hate the lot of them.sny they eont ever get my money again.

Ehllhayapeh Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 2 hours ago, Cruyff said: So your position is, you disagree that Celtic should be handed a Title they have not won. Yet believe Dundee Hibernian should be awarded a title they have not won. Then you have a go at Dundee for stating there should be no Promotion or Relegation if games cannot be completed, which is clearly a more sensible solution if they cannot or, will not make changes to the League Structure. So in essence, you're a massive hypocrite? 🤔 Never mentioned Celtic once Ive said from the beginning "as is" is unfair on Hearts and Partick No promotion/relegation is also unfair on teams at the top end and Dundee are only after the gate money from United to suggest it. That leaves reconstruction which ive said im in favour of. It is the best solution possible. So no im not a hypocrite at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
