Yeah but what they should do and actually do are poles apart. They couldn’t even scrape the money together to buy Hampden and had to cap in hand to two Celtic *****, is that favour being called in.

Gambo Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) SPFL are a laughing stock just now anyway so they will have no shame in trying to force Dundee to change their mind. Dundee on the otherhand would look really foolish AND suspect if they were to change their minds after talks with the SPFL.

Not often you see "sensible" and "the SPFL" in the same sentence, and today proved it. How can they not just give everybody a payment in the interim based on the mathematically lowest position they can finish. Hearts, Hamilton, Ross County, etc get the 12th place prize money of £1,125,000 immediately, and so forth up the league.

south morocco Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 24 minutes ago, Cruyff said: The best option is resuming the league when this is over. Reconstruction isn't 100% fair on sides that are placed 3rd and 4th but certainly fairer than that shambles proposed by Liewell and Dungcaster. If they are unwilling to reconstruct the league. The next fairest option is the no winners and no losers, no promotion, no relegation and no trophies because no one has officially won or been relegated. Which you seem to have issue with. Either resume it or null and void it. If we we are relegated, it’s legitimate. If we null and void , we start again when possible. Celtic if that confident of winning everything should have no complaints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
