There are very few who will vote for the good for the league and lets face it Rangers certainly aren't voting for the good of the game Agree.

Their fans have been on at how corrupt the league for years (five way agreements, Rangers being signed off to play in Europe, etc.). Today is their chance to make a change. Lets see if they take it. I am so far out the loop with this stuff and almost beyond caring , what are we voting on today? Edited May 12, 2020 by Mox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine Flat Earth, Lamia and Rossy will be along shortly as well. Has anyone actually said that an independent investigation would be a bad idea?

The huns want an investigation into the SPFL, who they are accusing of being corrupt**(which really means they aren't nulling and voiding the season to let the huns off with another year of making a cunt of themselves on the park) They don't really believe this of course, they're just looking to deflect the attention away from their own failings and making sure their nutjob fans continue to buy season tickets despite Celtic winning 9iar Edited May 12, 2020 by Terry Munro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaid Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 21 minutes ago, vanderark14 said: or he is just stupid and didnt realise they could null and void a season but issue prize money based on current positions I'm not sure why people seem to think that's such a ridiculous suggestion, seems to me like its a pretty reasonable compromise position. On one hand there is a recognition of the results in the league up until the point it was suspended, i.e. prize money is awarded on the basis of current - or adjusted for PPG - league positions. If the league wants to award titles then, personally I think in the current circumstances they're pretty meaningless but I'm really not fussed either way. Essentially what you are doing is drawing a line under the current season and getting ready to move on. The problem is relegation - and by implication promotion - as that disadvantages teams *in the future* when there is still a lot of football to be played. I really don't see how you can legitimately relegate a team before the league is complete. Promotion is less problematic but for teams to be promoted when teams aren't relegated means that the top division will need to run with additional team(s) next season.

kumnio Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 There should be legislation on the number of statements each club is allowed to make, one a month is plenty. Its only a matter of time before one team says my dad is bigger than your dad. Theres probably more Scottish fitba statements on line now, than porn.

My understanding of that episode is that there was a discussion between Park, Doncaster and other SPFL officials. Doncaster's version of events is that Park made a defamatory statement and made threats to him. This resulted in lawyer's letters from the SPFL being sent to Rangers. Rangers version is that they dispute these allegations and view the lawyers letters themselves as intimidation from the SPFL. Unless there's a recording of the call then only those people involved will know what was said and remember it's perfectly possible for two people to have very different impressions of a discussion and for *neither* of them to be fundamentally incorrect based on their own perspective. People will obviously base who to believe on their own prejudices and allegiances but that would be stupid Where's the truth? Probably somewhere in the middle as is usually the case in situations like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
