Spellczech Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 3 hours ago, Rogue Daddy said: I think too many clubs have been shafted one way or another by the spfl, for them to fall in line as quickly as they did in the summer. If anything good has come out of this it’s that there has been a huge microscope staring down on all the SPFLs actions this last 9 months or so. They have been exposed for the charlatans that they are... that we all knew they were. If this season is to be ‘void’ I think it would be an act of suicide for the spfl... maybe they feel that they have been outed and would be happy with that? I think the wee clubs are still too busy navel-gazing and worrying about their own survival/future to have any interest in the common good. Nothing has changed.

Beni Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Here's what Doncaster had to say about null and void last season “UEFA have made it clear that clubs have to be put forward for Europe on sporting merit,” he said. “If you voiding a league it’s quite hard to see how teams can be put forward on sporting merit. We feel deciding a league on a points per game basis is sporting merit. “There are all sorts of other factors. If it’s voided you would find a number of clubs and the league would face highly-damaging claims for a season that never happened. It could have led potentially to claims being made by partners of the league and of clubs themselves.” https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/18416276.amp/ I'm just sitting here thinking, what's different about this season to last season? 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NANOJAMBO Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Is null and void an option? ND: That’s a matter for the clubs. Last year, when it became clear the season couldn’t be completed, the vast majority of clubs accepted it because the Scottish government were not allowing matches to take place. The members decided they wanted the season to be curtailed on a points per game basis. ******************************************* This is fundamentally wrong on two points - there was no N&V last season the clubs *curtailed* the season last year ON THE ADVICE OF DONCASTER AND HIS BOARD The govt action didn't mean the season couldn't be extended , the clubs simply chose not to do so.

Doncaster is completely wrong. Doncaster also 'forgot' to advise how much money would have to be repaid to broadcasters by calling the league. He also falsely claimed it was the only way to get money to the smaller clubs, and as they'd had most of their payments for the season the sums involved were paltry anyway. If memory serves Doncaster was in line for a large bonus when the new Sky deal started, but it would be scurrilous to suggest that this played any part in his thinking.

I’m pretty sure they’ve seen (over the last 9 months) how pathetic/incompetent/bent the spfl/celtic actually are. Apart from us (And pt & Stranraer)... you’ve now got the lg1 & 2 paused to which Stenny & Falkirk are demanding governance change (and I’ll bet they’re not the only ones!) You’ve got all the double standards with regards to COVID non- conformance penalties and Celtic. How about Hubz game getting changed without their knowledge (for Celtics benefit). Everything negative during this pandemic has Celtic involved in some capacity... and now we’ve got donkey congratulating them on their Dubai apology and refusing to condemn their actions!? WTF. There are plenty more, but if ANY team in the spfl can’t see what a sham the board (and their ties to Celtic) are... they never, ever will. Rangers have remained very quiet up til now, but with donkeys comments today, I think you’ll see them come out fighting also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality his board & their QC advised the clubs to not extend the season - it was an SPFL collective decision. Now we can see why the SG is publicly making it clear that it's the SPFL and its own JRG who will be running the show. As for N&V - in light of what happened last season , it's not going to happen.

If McEnemey’s mic was muted how did the board hear him and reply that he wasn’t allowed to ask questions?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
