So let me get this straight, if the resolution were to pass no 28 day deadline, if it were not to pass 28 day deadline to bribe any team they can to get it passed? If thats the legality of the resolution then that is a fucking joke. Imagine that as an election, if the SNP win then they've won, but if they don't win or get a majority then they have 28 days to get voters to change their minds.

The basis of our approach throughout this situation is that no club should be worse off, either financially or in a sporting sense, as a result of any resolution. We have obtained a Joint Opinion from Senior and Junior Counsel to identify what can be done to remedy this situation. The QC’s legal Opinion concludes: 1. The information dispensed to Clubs and the process utilised in putting forward the resolution, could potentially be held to be a breach of the duty by the SPFL to provide sufficient information to member clubs to allow them to make a properly informed decision in relation to the SPFL’s resolution. In particular, the Opinion highlights the fact that the SPFL did not explain to member clubs alternative means by which payments could be made other than by requiring the immediate termination of the current league season. On that basis, clubs may have lacked sufficient information – by omission – to make an informed decision based on the SPFL’s briefing document. 2. The original vote by Dundee FC was cast in line with the SPFL’s own rules and must stand, meaning that the resolution falls. 3. There is the potential for the SPFL Articles to be altered, as would be required to bring a season to end early, in order to, for example, facilitate the payment of fees to Member Clubs. To secure a vote to end the season, the SPFL linked it to releasing funds to hard-pressed clubs, making it clear there was no alternative. However, as it now transpires, there was a vehicle to release monies in the shape of loans, quite apart from the possibility of changes being made to the SPFL Articles to allow the payments normally made at the end of the season to be made now. We would urge the SPFL to move immediately to approve loans to clubs against the monies owed to them at the season end, based on their current position in the league. With that urgent situation dealt with, there can then be considered discussion involving all clubs to address the way forward for Scottish football in this unprecedented season. The SPFL presented to clubs (in 25 pages of briefing note and resolution and with 48 hours to consider it) that there was no alternative. It is now apparent that that is not the case. Again, we restate that we are uncomfortable with the position Scottish football finds itself in at a time of national emergency and have been reticent to get involved publicly. However, as a Board, we would be wrong not to share the Opinion with our fellow clubs across the leagues, as well as with our staff, management, players and fans. This is why we're wise to hold fire just now. Given how folk react to us, it has more traction coming from others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is rare to get Senior and Junior Counsel to give opinions as generally only both are used in the most severe cases eg Murder, Rape etc. To see it in this context shows how serious it is. By making it public, Partick are saying they have nothing to hide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creampuff 22,630 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Part of the significance of the multi-club approach would also be that it would materially reduce the legal expenses of each individual club should they approach the Courts with joint proceedings.
