In all fairness though, should Brophy and Quaner be permitted to play in the matches against Hamilton and Motherwell, as they were not available for the original fixtures? Hamilton and Well have signed new players as well as us, so yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe luck had anything to do with this. I had every faith that the ridiculous decision couldn't stand up to scrutiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Celtic play players signed after the original Bolinboli game against us when it was eventually played? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original decision is on SPFL website in full already (3rd December) would be surprised if appeal details aren't also published. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munoz Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Outstanding result and the correct one. Hopefully gives everyone at the club a boost for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the SPFL board have overstepped the mark here and the two clubs should get together and fight this ridiculous punishment. 1 hour ago, portmahomack saint said: Lucky ? I don't think so.

Apparently someone from SPFL going to be giving a BBC radio interview shortly mate, might at least shine some light. The defence likely was shooty in though.

mattman Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) What a result winning the appeal, we where guilty but the punishment was harsh, even more harsh when in reality the only reason we got the punishment is because we don’t have a big squad. When an assistant manager admits breaching protocol on a “training camp” and pictures appear of this team “training” to then have 13 players ruled out due to self isolation, it would be absolutely shameless if they rejected our appeal, the absolutely brass neck of the statement from the spfl after it shows how petty and absolutely cringeworthy this full league set up is, absolute cowboy mentality from top to bottom. The biggest sport in Scotland and us fans who bring so much passion and a lot of money to it, constantly get taken for idiots by people who are clearly clueless and only interested in themselves. The Scottish game is excellent and it’s sold short, by rockets. If it’s not old firm pandering it’s just papering over one crack after another, there’s no leadership, there’s no fresh ideas, just the same crap, even the tv deal we got which was massively gloated about by the top brass is embarassing, from bt sports coverage of actually caring about our game, proper coverage, to sky sports old firm love in with practically any decent coverage, they might have paid the more money but at the end of the day they do absolutely nothing to promote our game. I’m babbling on a bit here but f**k me, what a depressing state our game is in. Edited January 16, 2021 by mattman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
