MarkDevriesScores4 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 There will be no waiving of compensation. Compensation is exactly that. The club will take any funds to compensate losses. Not free new money as some would believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That approach would absolutely baffle our detractors... 3 months ago Yes now no chance. Its been total self interest the whole way from all but a few clubs. The reconstruction vote proved that conclusively. It’s always been the fairest and least destructive solution overall. Clubs wanting the exact perfect reconstruction in these circumstances were acting like total dicks - probably why none are willing to speak about it on sportsound.

That should be blindingly obvious by now I agree with that and I really hope they don't. As I have posted previously, I am and remain confident that we will win. If we do, then we will almost certainly have succeeded in bringing down the SPFL. I would regard that as a triumph. In some ways even better than reinstatement, because I am firmly of the view that the corruption endemic in Scottish football needs to be rooted out. I don't want us to be awarded a pile of compensation as it would undoubtedly ruin several clubs. However, we do need to get rid of the utter nonsense that has clubs voting against reconstruction for the principal reason that Brora is too far away to get to. Football is a business and the clubs that want to run it as a business are subject to the votes of clubs like Albion Rovers. That is unsustainable. I think we should have a pyramid structure, but clubs below "senior" football should not be allowed promotion simply because they win the Lowland or Highland League. They should have a robust business plan, minimum standards for facilities and so on. That does not mean a 10,000 all seater stadium because the cost of that is crippling as has been seen in the past, but there do need to be some basic requirements. All of these things should be overseen by a governing body that is independent of the clubs. No ex-OF placemen and the like, but real administrators who understand the economics and appreciate the important part football plays in the lives of so many. Am I dreaming? Perhaps, but if we don't at least try, then nothing will ever change. Think on this. The chairman of Cowdenbeath is an absolute diehard Sevco fan and always will be. He is only involved with Cowdenbeath because he can't be involved with Sevco. I know he comes from there originally, but he is no fan. The way he votes has nothing to do with the betterment of Scottish football and we all know it. We need rid of this nonsense and this is our chance.

I would add that a decent plan could be put in place to help sponsor any club who won the Lowland or Highand league if they have the will to continue at a higher level. The body running our sport could anticipate success and put into place schemes of development for the bigger wee clubs. Earmark funds for grounds development and so.

Fantastic post, It highlights the possible demise of other clubs due to the SPFL through their mismanagement of the whole situation and looks to the future of clubs outwith the professional leagues. It also asks for real change, change from the top tier is almost impossible to introduce with the current structure. We all know that Scottish football in its current format is run for the benefit of all the parties sitting in Glasgow. The media, clubs and fans all know of the disparity. This can simply be how matches are refereed and we all have seen evidence of how officials have came out and state they adjudicate games differently between the old firm. The league voting structure is set up to ensure no viable change can happen until it is forced to do so. Sadly, this would have been a great time to look into some of the issues regarding league structure but clubs decided to look after number one and protect the cancer which is already rife in Scottish football.

Captain Canada Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Does anyone know if the amount of compensation (if that's the final outcome) will be influenced by the potential damage it could do to all teams or would that not come into the thinking? For example, if we can show we will lose £8m as a result of being expelled from the league, would that be awarded or would the panel look at the impact that might have on putting others out of business and award us a lower sum?

That should be completely irrelvant. The compensation payable would be calculated on the basis of the loss to us and Partick Thistle and nothing else.

The compensation better be massive or it will be all for nothing. If its not then i hope we have the opportunity to appeal and go back to court. So. Option 2 If we WIN our case we will not be expelled from the Premiership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really can't believe that the SPFL is gambling with this when it's so easy to sort out. I'm sure we'll get the blame though if any clubs do go under.

John Findlay Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 1 hour ago, Craig Herbertson said: Great post. I would add that a decent plan could be put in place to help sponsor any club who won the Lowland or Highand league if they have the will to continue at a higher level. The body running our sport could anticipate success and put into place schemes of development for the bigger wee clubs. Earmark funds for grounds development and so. But to be honest anything would be better than this mess. Yes, mess being the correct word Clubs being denied because of the geographical location, despite meeting the current criteria. The criteria being changed because the club is not located West of Harthill or South of Stirling. The prejudices/bigotry in Scottish football from the top down is a national disgrace and should have been got rid of a longtime ago. No one should be afraid of the two biggest clubs because the flourish due to sectarianism. They both should have been expelled years ago. The famous riot after the 1980 Svottish Cup final between the two. Punishment, £20,000 fine for both clubs. The Ibrox inhabitants paid that to have the West terrace covered in 1967. The fact that both the East and West ends of the national stadium, supposedly a neutral venue, are called the Celtic and Rangers ends, truly shows how neutral the venue is. Who ever is drawn as the home team in the final of a national cup competition should get the choice of which end their support gets. Shouldn't matter if that requires the bigot brothers changing ends, tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that’s where we can agree. Unfortunately the rest of the football world views Scottish Football through the eyes of the Celtic/Rangers bigot fest and Marketing budgets get driven there . The scandal of insisting on 4 OF matches in any TV contract is all that is wrong with Scottish Football and like it or not there are parallels with Scottish society.

We lose, relegated with parachute payment. 2. We win but still relegated with £m's as compensation 3. We win stay up, and leagues called null and void 4. We win, and reconstruction happens promotion, no relegation and extra teams in set up. I do think option 2. Whether we will get the full amount we wanted, I think we wont but still get a decent amount. I have accepted that we will be in the Championship next season so anything more is an amazing victory. If we get a big amount of compensation then other clubs will feel that (it wont be deadly to clubs but cause a few clubs problems) and could leave us in a strong position as I doubt we will keep first team spending at Premiership level (more in between the two leagues) so will keep money to use the following season.
