KP - Hibs Voting Intentions

[Brightside]

Read the replies already. Make no mistake, this is a massive massive public relations call from Dempster

If someone hasnt purchased a ST already, the reason for that has nothing to do with this decision.

[Onion]

Given that I dont know the actual impact any decision has on Hibs, how much we have lost or how much we will get , the impact on staff etc I'm happy if Leeann makes the right decision for Hibs regardless who is at the top and bottom of the table and we have to trust her on that.

If hearts do go down itll always be the season they were hard done by in their eyes. I'd rather they had done it themselves by finishing the season but its unlikely. They are gonna end up with a lot of sympathy which rips ma knitting considering they were heading down anyway.

Huns and Hearts have decades of experience of playing the victim. This latest episode won't change that. But it will make them a lot poorer and piss them off - so all good. Karma will not be denied.

I think their "hard done by" is adding a je ne sais quoi to the Schadenfreude tbh. :wink:

[Jay]

They have been rotten for a year. It's no accident they are bottom so don't let any hearts fans try the 'poor me' rubbish.

But they will...the whole club will.

[SouthMoroccoStu]

Yes, they voted no

Smile politely and nod along in sage agreement. :agree:

It does when a no vote means the possibility of a shortened season next year.

Officially?

[SouthMoroccoStu]

Do we know when we’ll know the full results?

[DaveF]

But they will...the whole club will.

They are serial whiners. Personally I'll take great pleasure in reminding any of them how ***** they have been.

If they go down then we must capitalise. I'm more concerned about that, than those fuds.

[SteveHFC]

6 minutes ago, Jamboelite said:Ross County based on their recent form and financial position will be voting yes.

I would like to think if we can prove clubs have been bullied into voting yes that this would strengthen a legal case.

Ultimately though we have been stitched up as have Partick.

Oh and **** Hibs and their ****house owner and CEO.


Budge better tell her to **** off on anything in future....which is good cause i hate this cosy cosy relationship.

[Brightside]

I'd hold off for now. There is no quote from Hibs in that report and the Evening News are hardly known for quality scoops.

[NAE NOOKIE]

No danger reconstruction gets through. Teams aren’t going to vote to receive less money on the back of all this.

Probably not as things stand. It all depends on whether clubs were prepared to look again at how the TV and prize money is shared and how the fixtures were worked out.

If the pre split season was home and away that gives each club 26 fixtures ... then a split of 6/8 also played home and away. That gives the top 6 a total of 36 fixtures with a guaranteed 18 at home and the bottom 8 a total of 40 fixtures with a guarantee of 20 at home.

It guarantees the Ugly sisters and the TV folk their wished for 4 derby matches and to fix the possible unbalance of fixtures versus season ticket outlay for teams in the bottom 8 they could be required to charge no more than £10 a ticket for their last two home games.

As an aside ... that first set of home and away fixtures also does away with the unfair pre split schedule we currently have, which can only be a bonus.

It's a no from me!

I think any vote on changing the way the prize money is divided up requires 11/12 clubs to vote for it so it’s a non starter.

That actually sounds quite good but as you say would involve PL clubs taking a hit with regards the new TV deal (more clubs = share of the pot gets diluted) so I can't see it coming to pass. Also it keeps Hearts up so it's a no from me!

The Evening News is Hibs "go to" paper.

Rather than make it known officialy about any particular issues Hibs feed certain stories to the EEN under a nod and a wink basis.

That gets stories out in the public domain without Hibs being compromised in any way.

Its all very cosy and has been for years and in return for wee scoops the EEN is never particularly critical of the way the club is run knowing they will get access and stories denied if they get too critical.

If the EEN say Hibs are voting yes then you can be 100% certain Hibs are voting yes.

This is where we disagree.

Reconstruction to save relegated clubs this season at the expense of relegating more next season is a false economy.

Try to start the season 20/21 as usual and put permanent reconstruction on the table if it is deemed beneficial.

One off sops to clubs unlucky enough to be in the relegation places are not the answer.

I think you’ll find I repeatedly said that I do not believe Hibs would be so stupid as to vote against the SPFL proposal. It looks like I was right.

Probably wise. Roy MacGregor is a very wealthy individual so if there's one club apart from Celtc that doesn't need the cash asap, it's probably County. He's also pretty independent minded and not scared to stand up to the SPFL. It was him that effectively torpedoed the last reconstruction attempt, wasn't it?

Don’t know much about him tbh but I do know that they could possibly still be relegated (or play off ) and whilst the chances are slim he will have one eye on retaining a SPFL place.

Looks like it due to the Championship clubs and maybe also Leagues 1 and 2 not getting to the 75%.

Will probably just mean another vote on the same motion further down the line at a time when UEFA acknowledges fixtures can't be completed. The vote will then carry as clubs will be stuffed for cash even more by then.

[Pretty Boy]

I think any vote on changing the way the prize money is divided up requires 11/12 clubs to vote for it so it’s a non starter.

It does. Rangers and Celtic usually vote together so they essentially have a veto on anything that doesn't suit them

There was a motion put forward to change the 11/12 requirement when Rangers were out the league. Aberdeen voted it down along with Celtic.

Thanks again all.

Great debate, heated discussion at times and strong opinions but just remember we’re all Hibs fans wanting the best for the club but with perhaps a different slant on how that comes about. I genuinely appreciate everyone’s opinion regardless if I agree with it or not - every voice helps shape a direction and decision.

[Hibee87]

Would like to hear from the club's who voted no, and their proposals for an alternative. Being a Hibs fan, we will obviously be accused of wanting it to relegate hearts. But there really is no alternative. IF we are unable complete the season by whatever date is set, which doesn't look likely, then completion of the season as is/average points total suggestion makes more sense than voiding the league. I'd love to hear the reason for teams not wanting what's been proposed

If it's carried their legal action would have less chance of success as by voting they would have accepted the process.I doubt that's the case. It's impossible for the SPFL to impose anything unwanted on the clubs simply because the SPFL is the clubs, each one a shareholder with a vote.

Therefore, unless they resign from the league, Hearts are bound to accept the result whether they vote or not.

Some talk that it's actually Hearts that haven't voted in the Prem.

Legal action will look better if they don’t vote probably instead of being sour losers, especially if they knew ten sides were going to vote it through.

So the remaining team in the championship has the final say, surely not

To simply ignore the vote, especially when you've acknowledged it in an official statement, serves no purpose.

As it's football that surely opens up a huge potential for some bribery and corruption! Surely by holding their vote back this club, whoever they may be, suddenly are actually very powerful

What a joke, clubs will go bust, if the decision is another four weeks away....

Find it surprising they would release info before getting all votes in, if thats the case they should do it again

[Peevemor]

Find it surprising they would release info before getting all votes in, if thats the case they should do it againThey should have withheld the info on the championship vote IMO. This would have shown their willingness to keep us informed without passing all the pressure and power to one club.

Perhaps it’s been decided either way but they can’t declare it until everybody has voted.

I don’t think so but it would be unbelievable if it came down to 1 club in the championship. Knowing hearts, no doubt it will be Robbo at ICT and he’ll save them.
