Taffin Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I've not really kept up with this but I thought the voting in the top league was an 11 and 1 split? Was the 11/1 use to ratify the change to the different ratio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokyowalnut Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Just now, Mikey1874 said: The main thing is SPFL want to force this through. Lots of clubs - not just the No voters want a full, detailed discussion on coming to a consensus. The clubs have had 2 or 3 days to consider. It's a farce of a situation, clear as day that Peter Lawell is at the forefront of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzyonthefence Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Michael Stewart talking a lot of sense here. Release the money now then worry about a resolution. A 120 page document presented to the clubs on Wednesday and expected to vote on it within 2 days. Except it turns out they really had 28 days to vote on it! And Hearts managed to **** up their own no vote at their first attempt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_Jersey_HMFC Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Using the prize money to hold a gun to the heads of the clubs is scandalous, just pay it out based on current positions (qualified by the proviso that it doesn’t mean champions/promotions/relegations) and THEN have a discussion about how to resolve this season- which does not need to be rushed right now.

The Old Tolbooth Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 29 minutes ago, The Old Tolbooth said: I can understand St Mirren and Hamilton voting for it, and even Aberdeen as they would secure a Euro spot, also Celtic. What I can’t understand is why Dundee Utd, Hibs, Inverness, and Motherwell would vote for it unless they’ve been offered cash to vote that way, this absolutely stinks to the high heavens! Dundee Utd are the worst for me, they could have voted against the proposals knowing full well it doesn’t even affect them as they’re going to be promoted anyway, they would have even saved some integrity of Scottish football! Hibs will lose out on derby cash, and that’s a lot of money for them, so they voted against us out of sheer bitterness imo, Inverness are the turkeys voting for Xmas, because they’ve just voted to stay down when they could have gone up if the leagues were to reconstruct, utter madness, and Motherwell would be in the Dundee Utd camp because nothing would affect them. If this transpires that we go down as a result of the way this has been done, then I’m not just finished with away grounds, I won’t put another penny into Scottish football and I hope they go bust, they absolutely deserve to! Just realised I’ve messed that up as Inverness voted against the proposal, the rest of my points still stand though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sky did demand all their money back because it was a void season, surely subscribers would be able to do the same and demand their money back from Sky on the same basis?

And shiting it from them isn’t on the agenda. Wouldn’t be shitting it but you’d be stupid to think we would not be going into a hastily arranged game in a state of serious change whereas our opponents would be as per and this would all be due to this decision to expel Hearts from league without a chance to play out the season.

Phage Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Realistically, whatever is decided now will change dramatic before the crisis ends. 3 SPL clubs too go bust? What then? They still going to relegate us? Its early doors folks... and even if we do start next up in the championship, we will come back up easily enough. Some clubs I'm certain just wont be around. Then will we need dramatic top to bottom league reconstruction? Maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
