St.Ricky 7,841 Report post Posted March 13 Bad as things are with all football cancelled is there an opportunity to look at league reconstruction, stop relegation and promote two to four clubs to the top league? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will not happen while the ugly sisters own Scottish football and demand 4 games a season. Don’t be surprised if there are moves by the TV companies to allow those two clubs into the English leagues once this crisis ends. There is potential for clubs north and south of the border to go bust if this continues thereby making space for the ugly sisters to go where the money is. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St.Ricky 7,841 Report post Posted March 13 That might well be. Still would like to go back to playing each other twice. Even if there then is a bottom 4 v top 4 in Championship as a play off mini league. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougJamie 6,666 Report post Posted March 13 The only thing that has brought about the decision is the fact Celtic are 13 points clear, if this has happened at Xmas we would be playing on...……………. but after looking at some the vile comment Hearts made about us , I cant stop smiling that somehow with a team full of overpaid internationals they may well be heading down, or even better Utd stay yet another year there...…… win win As Old Rangers showed you cant buy success without massive consequences 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

W6er 620 Report post Posted March 14 I hate to say this, but the Old Firm are extremely attractive to broadcasters. That's why Premier Sports always pick them for their Scottish Cup games. It's an unpopular opinion, but the SPFL would be a lot poorer without them. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rather than moaning about them we should be welcoming their fans to our stadium in greater numbers, as we have been doing recently, and in doing so get more of the OF fan spend. The alternative is less money, smaller crowds and a lower standard of foitball. I care not a jot about their obsession with religion and politics. Just glad we don't have those "attributes". 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
