You have to laugh at Cosgrove praising Dundee United and having Shankland when they can't afford him. Spending more than Gretna or Livingston ever did. So he is claiming we are spending outwith our means, despite we have been posting a profit every season for the last few seasons. Sums up him as a pundit then, more interested trying to say things that suits his narrative than what the reality is. Also anyone getting fed up with the strawman that some use "reconstruction would not happen this if it was Hamilton bottom." It might or might not be the case but no one would know until Hamilton are in this position. They are making a reason for not backing something based on something that could never be proved.

Byyy The Light Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 1 hour ago, Ethan Hunt said: Yes. By not voting for reconstruction they would be signing their own clubs death warrant. It’s pretty clear what should have happened here. A resolution to call the league with promotion but no relegation. Reconstruct the leagues. Batten down the hatches and have 42 clubs (although more likely 44 to include Kelty Hearts and Brora) pulling all their time, effort, resources, and innovation into helping the whole of Scottish football survive this. Survival was key. Regaining strength thereafter would take time, but survival is critical. That is ultimately what the function of the SPFL is, to have a duty of care for all members and protect their interests. Instead of the above we ended up with a divisive, flawed, and incompetent resolution which put 44 clubs at each other’s throats, promoted an I’m alright Jack mentality, and will ultimately lead to the demise of a number of clubs and Scottish football as we know it. The SPFL board should never survive this. There are individuals on that board who have consciously made decisions that will result in Scotland forever losing clubs, history, jobs, and community fabric. They are a fecking disgrace and should be dragged by the bollocks through the courts. Great post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamboelite Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 1 hour ago, gashauskis9 said: Apologies if I'm being thick again, but let's assume we take the SPFL clubs to court for failing in their duty of care towards us and we win, which leads to clubs going bust through the cost on them to pay up towards our compo. Could those clubs technically put a counter claim in on us for forcing them out of business? Thats not how it works. You dont take someone to court and win and as a result the compensation you are entitled puts their business under and they then they take you to court because their business went under. That would be a bit bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needlessly relegating teams into leagues that can't even play... the SPFL won't have a leg to stand on. Exactly. The sheer gravity of the whole voting process is now coming to light. Hearts have a very good case and it is only getting stronger so the pantwetters should go have a look at scots case law history before spouting their mouth off.

Ethan Hunt Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 2 hours ago, DETTY29 said: Brian McLaughlin gave a breakdown of what 'might' be due back to Sky and BT. It was a scary amount for Sky because of the 2 non OF games not being televised and ran into millions. Which is shocking as few people will subscribe to Sky Sports purely to watch Rangers v Celtic games. I’d love to see how much money Sky bring in for 24 hours pass subscriptions just to watch those games and would wager it is nothing like the value they have placed on it. The financial weighing Sky place on those games is frankly outrageous, only matched by the SPFL allowing them to do it. Yet more incompetence from Doncaster.

wavydavy Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 2 hours ago, Shanks said: How do we cull players that still have contracts with the club? I think the standard way is to tell them they have no future at the club and are free to find another club. Obviously you will get those that are happy to sit on their contracts and not be involved in first team action so there is not a lot you can do with those. The ones who want to play might be prepared to move on to get game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diadora Van Basten Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 In my heart of hearts, I expected Hearts to survive relegation and to reach the Scottish Cup Final, but apparently we were bottom for most of the season and cheated by signing Boyce so deserved to be relegated according to the Weedgie media and pundits.

That's the equivalent of blaming a woman who goes out for a night out in a skimpy outfit for being molested. Ok, so we were bottom of the league, and that is partly due to Ann, but that did not merit in any way whatsoever what happened to us. You're a Hearts fan and you're victim blaming your own club? Partly? Are you on drugs? 🤡 Her mismanagement of the club left us spiralling downwards over the last 4 seasons in which we have failed to meet acceptable expectations, eventually to 12th place which has put us in the vulnerable position where we have been demoted. Yes, It's unfair and unjust but we should never have been in that position in the first place. It is entirely her mismanagement that has put us here. Had we played the 8 games and stayed up, she would still need to go regardless. She's absolutely ruined us. Her saving grace will be Championship clubs unable to play due to no gate money. You can deflect away from the facts all you want and lash out at everyone else for it but Ann Budge needs to go asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCW1976 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 If it’s only an 18 game Championship next season, then the lack of income - and ability to generate income - will surely see this go to court. I’m not a bitter person, but I can see how others find it easy to take that path. I have a desire to see other clubs fail.
