Plans for next season

[shull 31,018]

They have asked the fans ? 

Ha ha ha ha ha 

First opportunity, Clubs will be demanding Season Ticket money without any fecking feedback from the masses. 

Punters getting emotionally screwed as per usual. 

Mugs

Where is GS asking for feedback? Surely with the VeryConnect software SMiSA could get a poll of the members views.

On the OS.

As @Sonny says

Quote

As a board we felt that we wanted to have an input into the talks taking place around the future of the SPFL and as a result Chairman Gordon Scott has been added to the SPFL reconstruction group. I am sure everybody has their own ideas on what form this would take and we would be interested to hear all positive ideas on this matter by emailing [email protected]

I'm not sure St Mirren will see any of the cash from that- for that reason,  I'm out.

Gordon. 

No need for reconstruction. 

Along, with the other 39 Clubs, get together and boot Celtic and Sevco out of Scottish Football. 

Simple

As plenty individuals have found out, business acumen does not always transfer well to football matters.

A top negotiator, should have known better than to make the comments that she has made in the past few days.

There's not a chance in hell of league reconstruction happening on a temporary basis. A slightly better chance of longer term reconstruction, although the formats that the big clubs will accept have more flaws than the current set up.

Budge will be delighted with that.

She thinks current set up is best hence 1 season change, but if she gets any deal that allows Hearts to remain in the top flight then she will be more than happy.

I think the likely option is long term 14-10-10-10 solution rather than 1 season change.

Hearts should not be relegated under any circumstances with 8 games to play, totally wrong and the same applies to all other clubs affected.

Problem solved. Continue this season from 12th March 2021.

Doesn't look like there is going to be any football before then.

I said slightly better, but still no chance.

Whats the point of a 14-10-10-10 league then?

Its hardly any difference and doesn't get any of the so called benefits all the people who want a bigger league are looking for? 

This solution long term looks like it will please nobody all it will do is dilute the top league prize pot.

I would like to see it as a stepping stone to bigger leagues still in the future and to get rid of the ridiculous 11-1 voting structure that has hampered progress in Scotland for decades. It's got to get to the point where the powers that be realise four bigot derbies dilutes the fixture and will continue the decline of Scottish football, meaning smaller and smaller relative TV pots.

Bigger leagues following countless more successful European countries is the future.

He's spot on, any temporary change is a sham and wont get passed the first vote.

I don't even think a temporary change will get put to a vote. There will be far too many clubs against it. 

Any change needs to be for a minimum of 4-5 years imo, and then reassessed.

I think part of the problem is we have too many journalists with time on their hands making up shit, not just on football but on coronavirus in general.

The politicians know that the current situation has a shelf life. You can only ask people to lock themselves away for so long before people will rebel. They will need to find a way to get back to some level of normality while still trying to protect people. Not an easy task, especially given most of the people tasked with navigating a path through this don't know what they're doing.

Agreed, it's doomed to failure and should have been taken off the table within a few minutes on Monday. 

They have got previous when it comes to flogging a dead horse though. Back when the new Rangers formed in 2012, any vote to have them play anywhere apart from at the bottom was completely meaningless. Would be like a vote to put Brora in the SP after winning the Highland league. 🤣

[DougJamie 6,819]

Had to laugh at the 20-22 proposal

Mind u its the only chance we will get to play in Ton in the coming years

My mate has told me, they may well go under as they have zero cash , zero investment and getting close to zero support  that are willing to help...………… and they wont be alone

Might have one league of 14 and that's it

In your 1st 4 lines, you could swap journalists with football fans and get the same results

Other countries, Germany & Italy are already in talks to resume before the summer is over. 

I'd be surprised if we don't see a ball kicked this year.

I think they will be. Either any fans can get in to watch will be an other matter.
