The Godfather 72,003 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Never expected anything else. Scottish football is run by the same kind of people who covered up child abuse for years on end, they will do whatever it takes to keep the rebels on top. Too many years of accepting their pish for it to change suddenly now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 30,918 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 If you take away the 7 board members, that means 20 clubs do not think an independent inquiry is needed and that is disgraceful. As for the two who abstained, they are even worse - cowards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegendofCoop 17,364 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 FFS 2 abstentions. It's a yes or no question. The SPFL is either corrupt or it's not. I'm taking the 2 abstentions as "Yes but too afraid to say vote!". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogzy 31,195 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 2 hours ago, Swally said: "The virtual meeting has ended – and one more club looks to have voted in favour of Rangers’ resolution. A clutch of clubs, including Aberdeen, Stenhousemuir, Partick, Hearts and Stranraer have made their intentions clear to vote yes today. And Livingston have added their voice to calls for an independent inquiry. The West Lothian club were swithering but Record Sport understands they were convinced of the need for an independent inquiry – despite impassioned speeches from the opposing camp." THis is the sort of shit that, for me, shows clear guilt on their part. Why would anyone need to impassionate speechs against an investigation that they don't need to pay for, to find out if there is corruption in their house? Anyone?

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Not wholly unexpected to be honest. but 30+% is enough to worry them. Our board never expected to win this. Just another step in following procedures. I am sure that we will not let this go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Hedgehog 10,673 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Rangers and the other clubs that wanted an investigation need to take this to the next step. For me the future of Scottish football depends on it as I will not watch a corrupt league on any terms. What happens next is vital. How can anyone continue as if nothing is wrong?

It's a terrible reflection on the state of Scottish football and those members who don't value the truth.

Lenzie Loyal 533 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 32.5% of those who voted were in favour of an Inquiry. No matter how the SPFL dress it up that is not an overwhelming vote in their favour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's galling is the media will largely ignore it, in most countries the media would be clambering over each other to get at some tiny little piece of controversy first. There will be a severe lack of interest in this, and that in itself says a lot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
