Sweetheart 8,458 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Hearts should ask that in fairness the evidence is also published. The SPFL insisted in court on private arbitration but are now happy to cherry pick sections to made for public viewing. We still don't know what happened in the events surrounding the Dundee vote, this vote effected all 42 clubs. Quote Hearts and Partick Thistle hammer SPFL for granting arbitration panel permission to publish judgment Record Sport understands the league body gave a thumbs up for the tribunal's ruling to be made public. Hearts and Partick Thistle have slammed the SPFL for granting the arbitration panel permission to make their judgment public on the two club’s relegation. Record Sport understands the league body gave the okay for the tribunal’s ruling to be made public after just one paragraph was released following a week-long hearing. But for that to happen, all five clubs involved in the process need to give the thumbs-up. While Dundee United, Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers are all happy for it to be in the public domain, the M8 alliance have blocked its release, and hit out at the SPFL for picking and choosing which parts it wants the world to see. A three-person panel determined that Hearts and Thistle’s relegations would stand, with neither of them to see a penny of compensation. That came as a bitter blow to the pair, who are set to find out next week how damaging the legal bill will be to them when the panel reconvenes to decide how much is due. From the very beginning, the relegated clubs wanted the whole affair played out in public, arguing in the Court of Session that the public interest in the case meant that the arguments and evidence should be heard in open court. The SPFL took the opposite view, and lobbied hard for Lord Clark to refer the case to arbitration, which was strictly behind closed doors. But now Neil Doncaster and Co are content to have the judgment made available, which has left Hearts and Partick less than impressed. “We can confirm that the SPFL requested that the judgment, and judgement alone, from the recent arbitration be shared with other member clubs,” a spokesperson told Record Sport exclusively. “A request we opposed. “Hearts and Partick Thistle always wanted this matter to be heard in open court in the interest of total transparency. "If the SPFL had not sought to have that court action sisted for arbitration then all hearings would have taken place in the public domain, including any necessary examination of witnesses, consideration of documentary evidence and full legal submissions. “We do not believe sharing the judgement on its own would be appropriate. Hearts and Partick Thistle have fully respected the rules and directions of the tribunal to ensure privacy of the proceedings. “It is not surprising that Hearts and Partick Thistle expect the same respect for the tribunal’s directions and rules to be adhered to by the other parties who insisted on that forum for the dispute. "The SPFL went so far as to tell the member clubs that if they even wanted sight of their answers to the Court of Session petition, they needed to enter the court proceedings. “We understand that members of the SPFL board were not even allowed sight of their answers. We did not agree with that position at the time, but it was the SPFL who wanted as many parts of the case to remain private, even when part of a public court action. “, it is not now appropriate for it to seek publicity of only one part of the proceedings, whatever their motives may be." Hearts and Partick could find themselves in more hot water this week when they are hauled up in front of the Scottish FA powerbrokers on Thursday. Both were hit with a notice of complaint by the SFA compliance officer for beginning legal action against the SPFL without first seeking the national governing body’s consent. The potential punishments range from a £5,000 fine to being booted out of the league and having their Scottish FA memberships torn up, However, Lord Clark previously warned that any such sanctions could be deemed unlawful, and was prepared to step in if the clubs were punished so harshly. https://BOYCOTT THIS LINK/sport/football/football-news/hearts-partick-thistle-hammer-spfl-22461694 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been the standout player in the first 45 mins. Great work ethic getting up and down the left hand side and a brilliant finish from the penalty. 11 goals in a struggling team last year is an impressive return if he's not been playing as their central striker and puttig in this kind of shift. Yeah, I agree, Hastie has been very poor considering he's up against an 18 year old. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moody Blue 9,465 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Thats why a team have a squad, if one tests positive, treat them like an injured player if the rest are negative. We have to fire on with games now, otherwise we'll never finish a season and those fuckers will want the title handed to them again because they hump shite like Hamilton.
