Woodstock Jag Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 There is nothing out of the ordinary for a substantive hearing in a court to take a working week and there’s no good reason why, being at least a thorough substitute for it, arbitration won’t therefore also take a week. Bear in mind that just the procedural hearing in the Court of Session involved 3 days of oral argument. If it’s wrapped up by next week that’s pretty well run.

javeajag Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 from the 4th official in twitter It is expected that today legal submissions are to be made by Hearts/Partick and SPFL & everything should be wrapped up by tonight/tomorrow. At that point, only the judgement will be pending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same guy was saying this time yesterday morning “expected to go for at least five days from my sources” so I’ll be taking anything he says with a pinch of salt either way.

Plenty of time to redraw the fixtures if required.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like not having the two erse cheeks playing in Glasgow same weekend, Edinburgh teams and rugby internationals not clashing, also having to leave weekends free for cup competitions and international games, having free midweeks for postponed games. There was a few other things mentioned which i now forget. But it was quite a list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean how do the schools, amateurs & juniors manage to put together fixture lists I suppose the only difficulty is ensuring the ugly sisters don't have home fixtures that clash plus Hearts/Hibs and the Dundee clubs similarly. Also whenever we're in the same division as Ross County they've got to try and arrange a fixture against them as close to Xmas or New Years Day as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two other elements that spring to mind are TV commitments and mitigating potential fixture congestion for teams in European competition. Probably also consideration of the balance of fixtures before the January transfer window opens and stuff like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gianlucatoni Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 been a bit quiet on here... I'm missing WJ. anyway onto business... my mate heard from their distant cousin who he's never met - apparently he's in the know and has it on some authority that he's heard that the panel are still sitting but may have finished, that a decision is imminent but might have been delayed and we may if may not be reinstated/relegated or given some cash or not.
