born a blue nose 90,383 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Time is a great healer with most people. Rangers voted for the moral end to the league, there was more important things going on in the world (think back to our actions a century ago). the logical thing to do was null and void. We have not once as a club argued with the morality of the final decision. it’s how the decision was made, and who by, with their underhand tactics, hidden agendas and blasé way of doing it. That type of corruption shouldn’t be forgotten Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted it to resume as I still believed we could have won the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were fuckin horrific since Dubai, no way in the world we were winning that league. Totally get what you mean mate but I would have fancied our chances against the papes twice. Who knows there arses could have collapsed. Look at helicopter sunday. No one expected that. Also that season the beasts came to ibrox and beat us and everyone thought they had it in the bag and we came back. Yes it was very unlikely but nothing was won.

More importantly, which one is likely to generate most revenue for broadcasters, the PL, Bundesliga or Scottish Premiership? I mean, ffs, our games are scheduled to fit the gaps in the PL schedule as it is. With almost all of the 92 games to be shown live once it restarts, where are they fitting in the SPFL games?

Corruption is not in our sporting DNA ...... these fuckers have no sporting integrity and no sporting merit .... in fact they have nothing that could be classed as decent in all of their corrupt and immoral history.

Anyway, if the SPFL were arguing for anything it would be to grant them an exemption to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskbankloyal 19,446 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 The Dude is correct around contracts which was one of the reasons the season can’t be completed. Hamilton as an example will lose most of their squad this weekend. Other clubs are the same. Secondly, the clubs here can’t afford the testing regime that would be required and there’s also a dubiety over whether the number of tests required would even be available. The season here could not be finished (which is what the clubs unanimously agreed) which then meant that the outcome was was voted on by the clubs in April.

Given the state of some of the clubs up here there’s absolutely no chance they could afford that The Premier League spent £4million to get tests (each club is allocated 80 tests per week with two rounds of testing each week apparently) Even halving that number to take into account the reduced number of clubs up here v the PL, it's never happening. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/premier-league-coronavirus-tests-testing-results-positive-players-a9522756.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how do you expect us to start next season BCD if we can't afford testing? Contracts could have been extended for 60 days to get the season finished. Alternative options were never considered.
