jamboinglasgow Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 37 minutes ago, Ex member of the SaS said: Can't believe I am posting this but I can see where he is coming from. Money given and Hearts get reconstruction and it looks like a bribe, if Hearts go down then it really would look unconditional. Sometimes these cretin reporters write stuff without looking at how it's worded instead of making a clear point. Had he simple said if Hearts stay up then this would look like a bribe and therefore not unconditional. However his bile and bias won't let him make such a simple statement and he needs to fill a page so goes about reporting it in a way that simply annoys folk. I kind of agree you, but my problem is that Jackson then goes on about sporting integrity, and if Hearts had finished last after 38 games, I would agree with him that Hearts keeping up would be a bribe. But if you go down the route of sporting integrity, then the decision to demote Hearts (Partick Thistle and Stranraer) after abruptly ending the season based on a questionable vote which allowed rivals to relegate others (thus protecting themselves) and getting money for it is the original sin here. You cant just decide to ignore that and then decide this new issue requires sporting integrity being kept intact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToadKiller Dog Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 There will be a certain club or clubs who's nose will be out of joint because of the potential benefactors aid to the game . The daily ****** Jackson will have had a whisper in his ear try and put a negative spin on it . It's just a sad bitter twisted article looking for sinister motives which clearly aren't there. In fact that article sums up every way what's wrong with many involved in our game . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what happened to Rangers and then Charles Green’s Sevco applied to join the SPFL or whatever it was at the time and were admitted into the bottom tier. What should have happened and what normally happens when a club is liquidated is that there is a vote to admit one of several applicants to fill the empty space in the bottom tier. Sevco was treated as a special case and the governing bodies tried to shoehorn them into the top division but thankfully failed.

FarmerTweedy Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I imagine he was probably aware that getting involved in anything beyond just Hearts would lead to his anonymity being blown, and that he was comfortable with that. Jackson's column is appalling though, but exactly the standard you'd expect. Doncaster's statement on Saturday was clearly the reaction of someone who wasn't taking the proposal seriously, and was caught on the hop by Budge calling out his lack of action publicly. And the shite about Jason Leitch 'rubber-stamping' the 1st August restart then calling it straight into question is utterly risible 'journalism'.

It is meant for the majority of workers to undertake training at home, most probably on-line. Going to your regular place of work and undertaking activities that are normal to your employment under supervision would not qualify for Furlough. My understanding of the scheme is that a Footballer returning to “training” will require to be removed from it.

Otherwise you'll end up supporting some clubs at the expense of others who have been able to go it alone. So perhaps all League One and League Two, and perhaps all Championship sides. I think it would be pretty poor if any donation for testing ends up going to clubs who can well afford it, particularly Celtic and Rangers.

He hates us. We hate him. He has a platform to express that hate and we don’t have a right of reply or a mass platform to get back at him. All well and good But this latest article is nothing less than corporate sabotage, putting a substantial donation at risk or at least under critical scrutiny, possibly depriving half the clubs in the country of live saving funding and saving them going to the wall, and why ?
