Dennis Reynolds Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I don't think we'll play again this season. There's no way all the club's in the championship can afford this.

Hopefully the SPFL try to force the league to continue i.e if you can't afford to test you will be demoted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Order Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 As far as I'm concerned the precedent was set last season. If this leads to the end of the current season we must be named Champions and promoted with Ross County immediately relegated. Rangers win the Prem and Celtic can go sook for their 10 in a row. Any attempt at reconstruction must result in a no vote from us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest for me it's not so much about Celtic as the other clubs who done us in last year. If the season ends all we'll hear is Ross County wanting reconstruction to avoid relegation and Championship clubs like Dundee wanting promoted via reconstruction because there's no playoffs. These self same clubs that went after us. Fek them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAl1965 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Premiership past half way Good enough for the seasons to be declared in my view. All other league positions therefore valid.

LarrysRightFoot Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) Also re testing - what happens when a number of positive test come back, which is very likely the case if all 10 clubs test? There will be a mutual agreement to postpone the Championship IMO Edited January 11, 2021 by LarrysRightFoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyesandears Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 We absolutely MUST win every game or at least match those nearest us in the table. I think it's very unlikely the Championship season will complete and so we must continually be at the top of the table and be clear on the PPG formula. Over to you Robbie and the players have to have this drummed into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again I agree, TBH , I have been trying to keep my anger at Scottish football from last year at a simmer, but this latest act of stupidity is bringing it back to the boil. If the football authorities and the press try to sweep this away? I will be fit to be tied up 😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
