Blowing smoke up their arses because they've finished 3rd for the first time since 2005? They shitehawks don't deserve an ounce of our respect. Let them have their fun while we concentrate on ourselves. As they say, form is temporary, class is permanent. Correct. If we were playing them this afternoon I’d be confident.

Second bottom of PL v 4th Championship and 3rdv2nd It is disgraceful that the SPFL has that format in the Championship and League 1 play offs but not the Premier League. Mind you, it's in keeping with awarding clubs titles and demoting others based on an incomplete season and a vote that stunk the place out with corruption and skullduggery.

But imagine we finished 11th and played 2nd in championship ( Dundee ) would we take fans to a 1 leg match at a neutral venue on the chance we could go down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretfy sure they had seasons in the third tier, too. I agree. I'd quite like to see them relegated again but not if Dundee are the beneficiaries.

wavydavy Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Thought this was quite amusing. Following on from the delay in Celtic appointing Eddie Howe as the replacement for Lennon. JIm Duffy has said this. He told Clyde 1 Superscoreboard that Hibs boss Jack Ross could be a viable alternative having steered the Easter Road side to third in the table this term.

A trophy was awarded to the team in 1st place, and the team in 12th place was relegated. We were the team in 12th place when the vote to end the season happened, therefore we got relegated. These stupid ****ing semantics about "we weren't relegated, we were expelled, we'll never know our final position because we didn't play 38 games" are pointless; we have just played a season in the Championship because we were absolutely shite and finished dead last in the 2019/20 season.

After a couple of near misses, Killie went down to the 2nd division in 1988-89 albeit came straight back up, and didn't return to the top flight until 1993. As an aside, I didn't realise just how close Meadowbank Thistle were to promotion to the top flight. Narrowing the Premier Division from 12 teams back to 10, 3 teams were relegated with only 1 coming up. That 1 was Hamilton who finished 4 points ahead of Meadowbank. Any other season prior to that, or indeed quite a few seasons after, they would've been promoted as runners up. How it could've been so different for them had they become a top flight team.

Glamorgan Jambo Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Another shambles by the football authorities. After taking weeks to even think they could get fans in the stadium their poor relationship with the Scottish Government has come back and bitten them. If they had a bit more energy and nous they could have proposed this as a test event with pre testing and follow up tests as appropriate (what has happened in England) and probably got quite a few more fans in. Instead they asked for the distance requirement to be reduced just because.. and got what you’d expect from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as expected the only response from the SFA, a column written by Keith Jackson, appears full of moans and complaints but nothing about what was actually proposed apart from the number they wanted in.
