It's to stop the lower levels essentially having a veto over the rest of the leagues. It impacts the number of reps on the SPFL board (L1&L2 get one seat between them, Championship gets two and the Premiership get three) Thought they’d tried to pull a fast one, as I can see 3 possibly 4 clubs who 100% wouldn’t want the season theme end as is Sweetheart likes this Link to post Share on other sites

TV companies are in a fairly strong position actually. They will have been contracted to a certain amount of games in a season. If they don't get all the games they have signed up for, then they could withhold a proportion of the cash in the contract. What doesn't change a thing in the TV companies favour is calling the league void or calling it early and naming a champion. Either outcome still means that they have not been able to show the number of games in their contract. Sweetheart and dougie76 like this Link to post Share on other sites

Straight-Edge-Loyal 5,318 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I wonder if we could come out with some of the milder evidence to get the inquiry started and then feed them the truly fuck the Scottish football system stuff then. Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Colin Traive 11,473 Posted April 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2020 13 minutes ago, mitre_mouldmaster said: Sorry but this argument does not stack up. The breach of contract is about the number of games played and shown by the broadcaster. It makes no difference if we end the league now and call it null and void compared to ending it now and declaring a champion. In either circumstance, the broadcaster has been able to show X number of the contracted Y games. Down south, they are talking about making up the number of games next season, so sky are being given the number of games they paid for. If we end the season early then our contract is has not been fulfilled. Calling the league null and void does no more harm to the contract with the broadcaster than calling it early and naming a champion. 100% Early on Liewell made a statement about decisions with serious implications, suggesting Null and Void would mean paying back gazillions when in fact there is no difference between declaring or null/voiding in terms of games played or rebate due. Still gobsmacked at how readily this option is being ignored. esquire8, dougie76, bornabear and 6 others like this Link to post Share on other sites

Of course you are entitled to your opinion. A FM clause relieves the party claiming FM from the obligation to perform the contract. Don’t see how that is of relevance to BT. It would be the SPFL claiming FM. Link to post Share on other sites

Spfl rules has a Force Majeure for an event, which is determined by an Appeal Tribunal to have been unforeseeable and unavoidable. The reason they can’t use is is that it’ll prevent the gifting of a title for their football team. This vote shouldn’t of even existed.
