Why go to associations for them to construct a court of arbitration when we have gone to the court that can deal with our complaints... our complaints are based in two sections of company laws which as detailed in the petition we submitted to the court. If the law lord does reject the petition he will surely have to say it is on the grounds that he does not think that company law has been breached? Hopefully he'll think it was.

Exactly: the way Aberdeen voted had no material impact on the resolution passing or being rejected as they had already secured the 9 required votes in favour from the premier teams. Aberdeen changing their vote to yes to give a 10 v 2 result is just window dressing. What I'm not clear about is why cancelling the playoffs doesn't constitute a form of re-structure which would have required more votes for it to pass.

My view is that Lord Clark will have no intention of handing this to the SFA as it is an opportunity for him to preside over a precedent setting case of Company Law. The SPFL will have no intention of allowing this to go to a full trial. I can’t see Hearts/Partick settling out of court for compensation, so when all factors are considered its hard to see how Hearts won’t be reinstated to the SPL. Whether this is done by cancelling promotion/relegation, reconstruction or Hearts playing as Team 13 is for the SPFL to decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if the only defence is it should be referred to SFA and Lord Clark says it shouldn't then we have won the case. Not on Wednesday, we won't have. Think of Wednesday's hearing as the final qualifying round to get to the Champions League group stage. We need to get past that in order to get our petition heard in the CoS. If Wednesday goes in our favour, then it's possible the SPFL will offer to negotiate with us & Thistle ahead of the proper hearing in an effort to avoid it altogether . It would be up to us & Thistle to decide if we want to take part in that negotiation or not. The proper hearing a the CoS would be our biggest bargaining chip - "We'll withdraw our legal case, once you have forced through a 14 team Premiership by next week ..... or see you in court" Edited June 30, 2020 by Lone Striker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victorian Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 People need not be too worried about this being referred back to the SFA to arrange 'independent' arbitration. It may be neccesary in the first instance. Come what may, this will return to the court. They cannot escape the law being the arbiter of last resort, especially when it comes to a matter of company law which the football authorities are incompetent to deal with. The SPFL and SFA can continue to hope we just go away but they cannot escape the fact that the courts will have the final say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Clark’s legal background is one of academia, I think he will be rubbing his hands with glee at the opportunity to get stuck into this case. Some judges might be rubbing their hands at the thought of the opportunity to set a precedent (though it only becomes enshrined in law if upheld on final appeal in the Supreme Court) while others might not wish the responsibility with the possibility of making a pigs ear of it. But I'd suspect most would relish the opportunity as it's something that won't come along too often as the years go by, I suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmcjambo Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I've not heard if any other clubs have decided to become respondents following ND's letter on Saturday to all clubs. I'm really not sure why they would do so, or what ND's motives actually were - I'm assuming to sow division. Interesting that according to our petition - respondents would share OUR costs of taking this action should we win. So why would ND think it is in their best interests to invite them to join????? Just so they could have access to the defence papers????? Yet another aspect from ND that appears to make little sense, or act in the best interests of members: (vi) to find the petitioners entitled to the expenses of this petition and the procedure to follow hereon from the Company and any other respondent opposing this petition on a joint and several basis; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no club getting within 20 points of us, even in a truncated 27 game Championship season. The only way we are not getting promoted automatically is if there is a 2nd wave... and if there is a 2nd wave , there won’t be 12 clubs left in the Premiership. Clubs can be as resentful as they went, but money rules and when the realisation dawns that no tv cheque will be landing in August, we might find people want to be our friends again. And if clubs won’t agree out of court compensation, this trial goes the duration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we have accepted more of the same, and corruption succeeds? If we win Compensation, then the panic and fall out as to who pays and how that is divvied up with be priceless to watch, and clubs will die, which will add more cost to those alive? If we get a full bhuna court case, and lose then again we are no worse off but we have delayed the league and put some clubs under financial dificulty, small win for us? If we get a full bhuna court case and win hands down and get reinstated, we get costs, we get our status back and football wins too, but at a cost to other clubs? So who is the most nervous? 1.
