League to split top 6 and bottom 8. Playoff scrapped 1 up 1 down in future. 1 down from Championship 3 up from 1st division - Format as is, but 1 up and 1 down with 9th 8th and 7th to compete against 2nd 3rd and 4th from new league 1 for 2 places in championship 1st division and 2nd to join as 1 league of 18 with 36 games.. Top promoted, 2nd 3rd and 4th in playoff league as above. Bottom 2 relegated via pyramid. Is this your idea or what you have heard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gianlucatoni Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) no chance whatsoever of the hearts siding with us in any challenge now that Budge has a seat at the top table to massage her ego & I just cannot square the thought of us siding with the filth in any legal challenge ... ... doesn't look good Edited April 15, 2020 by gianlucatoni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeanieD Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Is it t assumed that fiddling the leagues needs a 75% majority?

It will always be tarnished in the gloating war ( not that I care ). I'm surprised the other half cant see that....actually I'm not. Back to Thistle. As long as we dont go down im relatively happy. Time to put our interests to the front. They either get an asterisk one or none if UEFA null and void the leagues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allyo Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) 42 minutes ago, Norgethistle said: Because we published legal advice and rocked the apple cart Or... (been out with the dog and thinking about this)... League 1 needed a "big" team to ensure their income. That's the logical explanation that I can think of, but if it comes to pass it will be scandalous. Absolutely no one in this whole thing has suggested that third placed teams were worthy of promotion. Yet countless people have said that relegation on the basis of an unfinished season is wrong. I still can't see it. It would be beyond any kind of reasonable justification. Edited April 15, 2020 by allyo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the league will be bigger and there is less chance to get relegated. #closedshop. if the league is expanded surely there should be more promotion relegation not less.

Keeps 4 old firm games. Keeps Hearts and Accies up Almost guarantees Dundee the title next year with us, Utd and Caley out along with no Premiership drop down. Gets rid of playoff at Premiership which top clubs didn’t want. With bottom 4 of Championship and Top 4 of !eague 1 all involved to end of season, will apparently make it interesting till the death Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exiledjag Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 2 hours ago, scotty said: Dundee are behind this. So Hearts stay where they are, no promotion from the Championship and all other relegations and promotions go ahead. I think there is no mention of Hearts being relegated so far because this shambolic vote was about ending the season in the lower divisions. Hence the declaration of champions and relegation in these divisions. Hearts will be formally relegated, like us, when the SPL Clubs are asked to vote to end their season. Consequently Dundee Utd will be promoted! It's after this point in the process that meaningful reconstruction talks kick in. It is encouraging that a steering group of sorts has been formed and that Budge is involved. She seems an honest and principled person. However I have no trust or faith in the SPFL or that reconstruction will actually happen and suspect that the fact it is being led by people from Hearts and Hamilton Accies, the two bottom clubs in the SPL, is window dressing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAG1970 Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Dundee, twice in admin, now seeking the moral high ground of integrity..... boak... IF 3 teams are coming up and we’re going down then the board must fight this. Otherwise they risk alienating and losing more of an already dwindling support.

Would also add the point made earlier by others that money that would have been spent on going to away games is donated to the club instead. For me that would mean donating the gate money to the club. Exceptions for away games would be (depending where everybody is actually playing) Falkirk, ICT, East Fife, Dumbarton. The rest can get stuffed especially Dundee, Raith & Forfar - for actions and words. We should not run supporters buses to any of the rest.
