GersInCanada 7,775 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 SPFL are relying solely on one line of defense. That this a football matter and should be adjudicated by the SFA. Apart from that they have offered no defense to the Hearts/Thistle petition. Hearts/Thistle are arguing that this is about breaches of company law and as such only a court can hear it. Should the judge side with Hearts/Thistle then I expect the SPFL to throw in the towel to avoid the exposure that would come with a trial. Putting my natural bias to one side I strongly feel that the judge will side with Hearts/Thistle and decide to hear the case at a later date. But that is just my opinion.

If we kick off next season with the same league body and people ruining, I mean running, the game then it’s going to be grim. Corruption can’t win. Pay offs cannot be accepted in any form. The corruption needs to be beaten and binned, nothing else. Let's hope justice will prevail Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

southcoastbear 1,639 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 If spfl is really committed to ensuring the futures of all Scottish clubs then it would of course follow that any profits from these trials, supposedly at the Big Jock Kew camp and murrayfield would of course go to the fund that is supposed to keep small clubs afloat. Goes without saying really , doesn't it ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Nosed Babe 20,772 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Got it now. Pretty normal. I am guessing that this is a bid by the defenders to get this chucked out since they are speaking first or others want to join in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an excuse lol, Myself and a few others are very interested in this at court. Civil cases are usually routine then all of a sudden we get 2 interesting ones at once!

Dave Hedgehog 10,673 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 The SPFL trying to argue that the procedures and voting process are somehow “football matters” that should be referred to the SFA is actually embarrassing. Its the conduct of you as a company you fucking melts. Even the lawyers on their behalf must be saying “at least I am being paid” 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersInCanada 7,775 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I was baffled by the judges rebuke to a QC by quoting St Johnstone 65 to show precedence. Googled it and found out that in 1965 St Johnstone took the SFA to court and won. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Traive 22,854 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 “Still time for arbitration but any shortage of time is due to Hearts/Jags delaying proceedings. After all, the vote was passed on 15 April...” Lying bastard, Dundee voted NO, the vote failed. Judge seems unimpressed based on his interruptions. Looking forward to hearing the good guys.

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 That fart has been talking for well over an hour now and we have still to hear from the SPFL/Hearts/Thistle QC's. Beginning to think that this will not end today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because the background facts might be similar at a superficial level doesn’t mean there are relevant principles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
