It will come down to the vote, and tbh i doubt the spfl care if reconstruction goes through or not, it was a carrot dangled to dupe the likes of dundee etc, if the teams vote it down the likes of doncaster etc will just say "well we tried" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BT:will offer less money cause we went to sky for the 20/21 season Clubs will lose money it's a non starter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Robot 21,031 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I would like to think our board thought this was a possibility and have a statement already prepared and due for imminent release but reality tells me they will be scrambling about in the dark and found wanting.

We sign up to them every year. There can be no league reconstruction for next season mate There can if the members change the rules to allow it and that can literally happen overnight and they WILL have the required majority as the fix is already in.

If anything, I actually think some of their fans will somehow be even happier with this one given how pissed off we all are. Come on though. If it was us, admittedly I’d try to front it out, but I’d know deep down that we hadn’t won it. They didn’t win the competition they entered, they were just leading it. 9iar is cancelled Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The records will show they were champions and they march on on to 10iar as planned. Our board had fuck all, otherwise it wouldn't have got this far. So get the ST money out to watch a rigged competition and keep our board in a job. We all know they didn’t win the 9, regardless of what the record books say. (Which hopefully has a big fat * ) As for your second point, not buying season tickets helps no-one other than the filth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 The elephant in the room is that every other club in Scotland appears to agree to a corrupt monopoly whilst having no chance of winning a major trophy themselves. I really cannot understand how those clubs, their boards and their fans can accept this, knowing that second best is the most they can achieve. It's just not what football is.

Redemption80 158 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 It doesn't matter if we don't count it this as 9, if we won this year and they didn't acknowledge it as 55 would we give a fuck? It's not about the title as Uefa were likely to try and implement this everywhere anyway, it's about the way this has been handled and what we do to investigate it. I've never cared less for Partick Thistle and never will, but they are being punished more than any team in the leagues. I'm sure they won't let this drop and we can move forward joining them to expose the SPFL. I'd love to know what Dundee and Hearts have been offered as reconstruction will 100% fail under the current rules. Maybe they have been offered confirmation that the rules will be changed without club approval because right now Hearts have been "unofficially" relegated and Dundee will now have to deal with them in the championship next year. They are either both corrupt or very very stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammer93 15,024 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Anne Budge has overlooked something here if she thinks reconstruction will get pushed through to appease Hearts and any threat of legal action....I think she will be taking the vote of hibs as one of her 11 needed obviously....if you are hibs....do you risk a fan backlash to save your detested rivals.....hopefully hibs and ourselves scupper the reconstruction vote leaving hearts & budge to reap what they have just sown Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnbroe Bear 248 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Taking cognizance the SPFL have had a 4-5 days to digest Partick Thistles legal claim as well as a week or so doing what they do so well, manipulating the rules to suit themselves and more importantly one club, as well as now appointing Ann Budge to have a look at league reconstruction. A penny for a pound every club apart from Rangers have been discreetly contacted and swayed over the weekend to 'discuss league reconstruction' . Ticks the box with what Judas Nelm of Dundee stated in his last statement. League reconstruction is part of their overall game plan to keep everyone happy, including Hearts and it wont surprise me when 11 clubs vote for it and Rangers will be the only club against. Hearts (Budge) have sold their soul to the devil and hell scud it into them. One minute they are pontificating about the lack of sporting integrity but veiled threats of legal action seems to have been forgotten with her appointment to head league reconstruction.

Just a question mate, In no way having a pop. No disrespect to any bear . We take our confidence from posters, they convince us , they are in the know . More often than not,they are not . They believe they are, with good intention . We get caught up with the wave of enthusiasm . It feels like 8 longs years of that shite tbh I have detested how our club have let us down by being shafted on so many occasions , especially since King got control . There is just no belief in me now , that convinces me , this is going to be any different Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
