Coop 654 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Say what you like about that sleekit cunt Lawwell but he gets the job done for his club. We've lacked that sort of type who appears to be outwardly genial, flattering the masses but within beats the heart of a ruthless operator whose aim is always to be a step ahead. I bet he's been working on this since it became apparent the league would be in lockdown while all we've been doing is firing off soundbites in the media, playing to the gallery. One approach sort of keeps your team onside, the other gets shit done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it even changes any final positions. Everyone is in the same position iirc whether its points already won or points per game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,574 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Anyone able to explain the Resolution part that defines whether it's a 90% or 75% vote in relation to Premiership league issues? Why does this one fit into the 75% category? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirkiebear 1,013 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Teams haven’t even played the same amount of games as each other 😂. The only good thing that would come from this is confirmation to those who had any doubts, sporting integrity is purely a stick to beat Rangers with when it suits an agenda.

(I think Belgium is back on hold, no?) UEFA criticed the decision by the Belgians saying plans were in place to try and host the outstanding games in July and August with the Champions League to be played afterwards but I think in more recent days UEFA are getting the message that this cannot be replicated across the whole of Europe as they'd like. Perhaps some countries may be in a position to achieve this but no one can say right now which one's they'll be. The worst thing to happen for any country is to relax the restriction then find another wave of new Covid cases which puts them right back to square one, extending the economic impact and heading towards winter and next season. In my view better to let one season go to waste than fucking up two seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritchieshearercaldow 22,109 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Pity our players capitulated after the break, this decision would have been harder to make had we been within a few points of them, they’ve even robbed us of the chance to close the gap ( game in hand) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not. There's nothing in UEFA's regulations that lets them do so. As long as clubs meet their licencing criteria, it is up to domestic FAs who the nominate to compete in Europe.

Probably because the SFA and all the other clubs bar Hearts unless they aren’t demoted will fall into line and vote for it.No amount of foot stamping from us will change that. You can bet right from the beginning of this Lawell would have been exerting his influence at the SFA and other club chairman’s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Articles of association determine what comes under what resolutions. This fits as an ordinary resolution.
