Farcity Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Aye but it's not all doom and gloom, they still get to pay Liam Boyce his 6k a week, bizarrely that seemed to get their fans all moist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Jim Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Killie will need to keep St Mirren at bay and Ross Co. may be a wee bit tense when Accies visit at the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debian Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 What happens when the SPFL is cancelled this month. Assuming we might have some legal challenges coming in if clubs aren't promoted or are forced to accept relegation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mox Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 How soon after the FA announce what their plans are there for their leagues that the SFA announce the exact same plan for up here? FWIW, the leagues should be suspended immediately, reassess where we are in a month and extend the season into June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say Utd or Cove aren't allowed up, Hearts are relegated... these clubs would go to the courts against the governing body surely.

sbcmfc Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Just now, Squirrelhumper said: This weekend games, OF included will be off. They should be. EPL and EFL in meeting currently and will be announcing soon. Players at various teams confirmed cases or isolating as precaution. Artur Boruc won’t be at Ibrox on Sunday if it goes ahead. Apparently he’s got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huddersfield Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Given the fact that we are facing a grave crisis at the moment; the awful possibility of Leeds getting promoted & Town relegated, it seems to me the only decent thing to do is to scrap this season & start again.

Going be interesting to see what they do as it could be a legal clusterfuck all around. They couldn't on the one hand award Liverpool the title then on the other hand not relegate three teams surely. The other thing is most sides are going to be strapped for cashflow so there could be sides going to the wall left, right and centre as doubt the various leagues have enough money to bridging loan the majority of clubs. I reckon they'll postpone the Euros then re-arrange for next year so they run back-to-back with the women's. The league seasons will be postponed for three/four months until the virus has run its course and they'll finish this season before running straight in to next.

AndyDD Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Would seem eminently sensible to award league placings by alphabetical order and start the 2020/2021 season on that basis in August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any solution that doesn't have problems associated with it. If ultimately the season finishes as of today, ie, no more games are played, then you have to effectively write the season off. Teams can't be promoted or relegated, no league titles can be given out. That might seem tough on some teams and it is, but for a league season to have any validity then it has to run its course. Theres some talk about using the summer to catch up but there's a few obvious problems with that. its pretty safe to say that things are going to get worse before they get better and there's about two months football left. That means so as to not impact next season, you need to be in a position at the end of May that things are at a level of normality that that can happen. To me that seems pretty optimistic. I think the first cases in China were about four months or so ago and they're not there yet and they've taken a lot more draconian steps than we have here to limit the spread. You also have the added complication that a lot of players go out of contract in June, so how do you handle that? I think the least worst option will be to just write off the season and everyone's going to have to take that on the chin. Trying to somehow finish the season will impact much further down the line.

Whatever way they go, it will be entertaining watching either side if the old firm going ape shit at the decision. I agree with you, the season should be null and void Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
