If the moon is full and there is no match in Dundee then 4.25 points for a win and if the wind blows from the south when the badgers are sleeping and you hit the crossbar during a game you get a lucky dip bag and 10 points added to your league tally if your club name has 2 syllables and one of your tea ladies is called Agnes but only if she isn’t married to Jim. Any more ridiculous than claiming that an email never arrived because of the attached pdf file?? This is Scottish football we’re dealing with here, utter ridiculousness is the norm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

writingranger 1,413 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Surely our board have not simply given a metaphorical stamp of their feet. They must have evidence that they will bring to bear ( see what I did there). The focus won't be on this vote, reconstruction or anything else, but on exposing the way business is being conducted and the attitude that prevails within the authorities that should be acting for all their members.

Could not call the leagues as they stood and relegate people who could have avoided the drop. Put it to a vote and get reconstruction on the table. This way you will find that no-one who was relegated unfairly, no-one missed out on promotion who was in the places to get it automatically. The one fucking thing they should have done to make sure it was fair all round is state that although a club is in the first spot in their league and they will get the benefit of that, they would not be considered champions. Dundee Utd get promoted and celtic get a shot at the CL. Bit shit as we could have been the ones earning that, but I could just about swallow it. None of this excuses the way the SPFL have behaved here though. Rangers must go after them and have their heads removed. If they fail in this, then im probably done with the game to be honest. Find it hard to argue. But the way they have done it and behaviour of 2 or 3 teams. No thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkylineBlue 23,367 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'm as pissed of as a the next guy, but what is it folk expected the club to do here? We have no control over whether or not the SPFL want to press ahead an announce this resolution as passed. All we can do is judge the club on their response and so far we dont know what the first step is going to be. This is going to be months and months of back and forth. And, as much as I'd love to see it, anyone who think we are going to, or should, come out with everything we've got and just blow our load to the media off the back of a disappointing, but expected, decision wants to have a real think about it again. We're all pissed off. Let's see how the club handle it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club not taking tickets and club saying they support a boycott are 2different things mate. Not taking tickets will lead to away end being sold out independent of the club. Boycott will start off well, but as folk see others going more and more will go weekly. Would need UB, C1872, VB, RSCs, all forums etc to buy into it for s boycott to stand a remote chance.

We're all pissed off. Let's see how the club handle it. Exactly. Now is not the time to make any decisions. It's too raw/heated. Am I right in thinking nothing for the top flight (champions/relegation-wise) won't be confirmed for a wee while yet .... use that time to take stock and see where we're at. Obviously I'd be pressing on with trying to sort out an independent enquiry which will take getting others onside, but we need to approach them the right way because, things could be raw for them too and them needing to take stock before either helping or us saying to us where to go.

I understand (kind of) that each SPFL team voted to benefit their club. Raith Rovers and Dundee - if we draw either in a cup then club should refuse tickets.
