SPFL and Covid ( Leagues 1 and 2 to restart )

Recommended Posts

If Inverness have concerns this would be a strange way of going about it. 

 

A way of trying to shut them up perhaps. 9-1 or something. 

 

Rather than addressing the concerns and supporting people in the game. Which SFA are probably incapable of doing.

Whatever happens, we just need to win games and make sure we are top of the tree by a distance. If the league is stopped, they have to promote us as they set the precedent.

They will try and change that rule, absolutely no doubt about that. 

 

Absolutely scunnered with scottish football tbh.

Just wondering if its a coincidence that testing has become a topic of Championship Clubs and now has stated to the SFA that they no longer want to continue, could it be that the 500k has spent somewhere else. Maybe just my weird dark thinking if Scottish Football. 

Nope, think you are hundred per cent right.

Me too, but it’s just the governing bodies that are mostly the issue. Absolute corrupt from top to bottom!

An application to the English league is pie in the sky, behave yourselves ffs! 
 

Surely though if Championship football stops, the SG have to ask for their £5m back? It’s only fair....

Will never happen IMO with the amount of fixtures currently played. Even if 70/75% of the league was played would I be certain of promotion after all the chaos caused last year!

I have some magic beans you might be interested in 😆

The money was to keep clubs afloat not to keep playing.

The only precedent is that the clubs will have to vote on it.

Unfortunately I think Robbo has caused all of this with his personal view on the current situation, his club haven’t said anything, and Maxwell has made a play for some publicity to make himself look important. 
Hopefully this will be forgotten about in a few days.

Bollox to that mate, I’d be asking for it back if they don’t keep playing, I get what you’re saying but surely this cash was really designed to get them through the season, it grinds my gears! And all because the Doncaster loves Celtic....

We need to play it like it is. We need to leave no doubt about how this division was going to end up.

There isn’t a rule.  Nothing has been out in place to prevent a repeat of the shambles of last season.

I agree but the official SH statement makes no mention of clubs playing, just to compensate them for fans being banned from the stadiums.

All 10 clubs in the championship have told maxwell to ram it.

 

There's definitely more to this. 

 

A nice test for Scottish journalists. My tip is to look up a division. Find a realistic motive. 

 

What might a lot of clubs want to happen?

This all has the stench of laying the groundwork to either null and void or not allow promotion/relegation. Imagine being Celtic and having not one but two asterisks in a "10-in-a-row" if it happened and they turned it around next season, or Raith enjoying two years in the Championship despite not earning that right by playing football matches, or Hamilton avoiding relegation again despite deserving it both times. On the flip side Thistle pushed to the brink and the careers of people at Hearts being put in doubt by fellow clubs. Shameless.

UEFA / FIFA won’t allow it for starters.  Then there is the matter of having to give (2 seasons?) notice to leave and of course absolutely zero chance that the English pyramid would want us. And would you want to start in tier 10?

How did Hamilton deserve to get relegated last season?

They shouldn’t get compensated, no one else is, I really want them to suffer big time, it pisses me off knowing they’ve got help.

Hopefully this will be forgotten about in a few days. 

So, Robbo does a piece primarily opening up about his mental health and at the end of it questions the football authorities actions. What does Maxwell do. Does he offer empathy, help, make comments about what we can do to support players and staff with Mental Health issues ? 
 

No, he takes the opportunity with both hands, presents this is an official club view and piles pressure on the guy and points the finger at him, or at least ensures that fingers are pointed.

 

What a fecking snake of a man. Unfit for office.

The main likely thing going around, as discussed last summer is no relegation from the Premiership. 

 

This could be the last chance for that. The £500,000 grants clearly allows every club to continue. The only and possibly last chance before the vaccine effect kicks in to use Covid.

They were in a play-off position when the league was stopped so there was every chance. Plus they deserve to get relegated every season IMO.

Why do Hamilton deserve to be relegated every season? Seems a bit weird tbh, tinpot club but punch above their weight.

This seems to be the only evidence - https://news.stv.tv/sport/ict-boss-robertson-says-he-has-struggled-with-mental-health?fbclid=IwAR3tls3ocUvwy3QxdCv9ubohX7o-wcpjAw2sh-_Gh-ffwR1ZsvR2pgkJ7VE&top. A manager's view being twisted into a club's public call for something has to be a new low. He actually makes sense but only if you do as he suggests and stop "all" football not just all football below the Prem.


Tragic that Robbo’s troubles has been twisted by these scumbags and is being used to potentially screw Hearts!

Nonsense. People in the game are allowed to give personal opinions about what's going on in the game. If the SFA did twist that interview to justify this that's appalling. And then there's the fact he said "all" football, which is a fair point.

Why would any club other than Hearts want to play on?

For a start Dunfermline must fancy their chances against the play off team.

Because they are a scummy team, playing on a scummy pitch, in a scummy stadium, in front of scummy fans that’s why!

Yes I would want to start from the bottom how can fifa argue against it when there are welsh teams in the set up and as for leaving am sure hearts would have something am not saying we will defo get in but this in Scotland is just shocking is there not a written rule that if a team will benefit the overall good of the game then they go to the top of the waiting list to get in and we all know that hearts are A bigger club then 90% of English teams

Probably a low point of the last 12 months if true. Maxwell should go. As someone else said, mental health has been a serious issue for many people.

If the sfa/spfl/celtic board have used Robbo ,i expect a strong statement from ICT

If thats what it took for teams to get relegated then the Premiership would certainly look a lot different!
