Quiet Jim 897 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 49 minutes ago, The Dude said: They've been that way since the formation of the SPFL in 2013. Leagues one and Two have always had a single representative at board level and are banded together as such. Someone at the SPFL must have had a helluva lecky guess to come up with those rules seven years in advance of this. You religiously refer to rules. If a club is voted a winner, have they won, or have they been awarded Either way would it be seen as a title won under normal circumstances? Simple question.

It wouldn't be seen as a title won under normal circumstances, no. They would have won it - albeit in a truncated season - but would still be deemed as the winners.

The Godfather 72,073 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 They didn't win anything, they will be handed it. There's a big difference and one I and all Rangers fans will remind those fenian bastards forever more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
British_Empire 9,648 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 1 hour ago, The Dude said: Yes. I dont see Dundee and Caley voting against it. There's still not going to be any playoffs if they do vote against it. Aye that's my worry too. They might vote on it even though they don't find it fair, because there won't be an alternative proposal that get's them the play off games anyway once the season is cut short - therefore they will more than likely just vote yes in order to get some closure, money in and start preparing for next season.

I don't even want them handed it mate, but the consolation will be the amount of **** next to their 9 titles and in all honesty probably the 10th next season too. They won 8, 4 of them with us not in the league and had the 9th one handed to them with 2 Old Firm games, a game in hand for us and 2 months of the season to go. There won't be any supporters there to see them lift a trophy for 9 "in a row" No quadruple treble. If there's a choice between somehow shoehorning in the remaining games and seeing them over the line to win it above board, and them being handed it with the above in mind - then there's only 1 outcome I want in those circumstances.

I completely get they won't have won it by the usual standards. I've said as much for several weeks but folk seem to keep missing that part. Theres no fair way of doing it. Null and void is unfair, rolling it back is unfair, PPG is unfair so unless you've got a time machine and a cure for coronavirus, there's going to be an unfair outcome. This, imo, is the least unfair of them all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
