Bristol loyal 6,248 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Good to see the club finally making a stand against these corrupt bastards, I just hope it’s not too late. Look at the spfl statement, they’ve been allowed to get away with their corrupt actions for so long they don’t even try to hide it anymore. We must follow this up, we should get it into the English media because the Scottish media will just sweep it under the carpet and if nothing done look into what grounds we would have to go down the legal route. One things for sure, if were ever going to change what’s going on, this must be just the start of the fight back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If as king says there is a prima facie case for conflict of interest, there is remedy in law for such conflict. If his statement is more than deflection/kite flying and he has taken legal advice before releasing it, we can surely expect to see legal action brought by king and court or spfl imposed suspension of the spfl chairman until matter resolved. Of course losing such an action would be catastrophic for the club. Sometimes it is better to say nothing at all rather than invite ridicule, so dave what are you going to do now ?

Fuck knows what he thought his statement would yield or what his next move is. Exactly. He would've considered the reply he was going to get prior to putting out a statement, he has his faults but he clearly isn't stupid. I wonder if he does indeed have some dirt on the SPFL and is currently in the process of feeding them the rope to watch them hang themselves. Surely he has got something substantial to be putting out all these statements recently, when for the past few years he's been quiet on a lot of things. Who knows, they could be playing right into his hands with that statement that they've just put out, particularly the speed at which it was released, that raises an eyebrow for me.

GWR1979 1,964 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 We have been crying out for someone to take the fight to the corrupt cabal for years and we finally seem to be doing that, we do not have a level playing field in Scotland and the more light which is shone on the imbalance the better. They seem to have annoyed him and I get a feeling they are going to regret it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMotor 2,208 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 The SPFLs statement is worded in such a way as to not actually answer the allegations made in King's statement while appearing to do so. I hope we have some semi-competent legal and communications people on loan to hit back on this. The SPFL have fucked it if that statement is their best defence.

VentyFour 690 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Some cards being put in the table before Friday. The world's sporting media will be focused on us as Gerrard signs, and a great big torch will be getting shined on Scottish football. I think King is playing a blinder.

BlueKnight87 17,286 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Convenient how quickly the SPFL got a statement out saying no investigation needed. I really hope king has something up his sleeve as a statement along isn't going to be enough. More action is needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Proddy 609 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Look at the reaction of fans of other clubs on social media. Embarassing. No chance of other clubs backing us as they won't want to upset their snp voting dickhead supporters. Aberdeen fans in particular are an embarrassment.

They all voted Rangers out with the exception of Kilmarnock. Don’t expect any other clubs to question this conflict of interest. We stand alone. The only support we will get would be from outside our game Sadly I think this probably the case, but hopefully with the credibility and notoriety of SG the outside attention and support this may bring may hopefully restore a level of parity...
