Looks like the legal eagles on Kickback are gong to have to build a new cast iron case. :greengrin

[Onion]

If the vote goes against Hearts for the umpteenth time, I suspect there will be a shift in sentiment from the media especially if Hearts follow through with legal action and manage to stop football. Irrespective of how strongly you think Hearts have been hard done by, no paper or broadcaster will support that kind of action. It would cost jobs, could bankrupt innocent clubs and destroy the Sky deal. Even the idiots who support Hearts who rely on their living in the media won’t countenance that.

IMO even if they only keep bleating and moaning, the media will turn against them.

[Aldo]

Only 16 out of 42 backed it! [emoji23][emoji23].

O dear. Aye but 16 wanted it. What about them and sporting integrity??

Trying to avoid any obvious bias, I honestly can’t even see why they would be entitled to compo.

Did they vote for the league to finish? Yes

Did they know bottom place would be relegated? Yes

Did they vote for the league to finish in the hope reconstruction would put them back in the top league? Maybe, but that was a gamble, that was absolutely never a given - if fans knew that then surely the Hearts board knew that?

So to me, they’d be looking for compo on the basis that they simply didn’t get their own way when out comes to restructuring even though the vote was held in accordance with the rules they signed up for. Going by that logic, every team that’s voted the same way as them should get compo. Which would of course be nonsense.

Agreed Calum. Now get out of my boat, I'm after different bites :fishin:

[FilipinoHibs]

Looking forward to new season. Only a month and a half away for us😁.

[Oscar T Grouch]

So I believe the Jambos sold their season tickets with a promise of at least 18 home game to be honoured from it. Given the championship has been confirmed as 27 games. Does that mean their effectively selling seats for 21/22 Season too?

[Mon Dieu4]

At this rate I sill need to boycott all games for the foreseeable as I don’t trust myself to keep calm.

16 is pathetic. I seriously hope this is now the end of this overdrawn matter.

No doubt there will be rumblings about legal action but the poor support and lack any real case must show reasoned people that there is no value in that for anyone. However that will not stop the madness over in Gorgie and the BBC

I wonder if the timing of the JA money was a mistake, in hindsight.

Had it not been for that, perhaps some clubs might have struggled to get through the summer, leaving space for HMFC to come up naturally.

With JA's cash, and Close Brothers, that's a lot less likely now.

[Ronniekirk]

The problem itk people always have on these boards - and the same thing happened here with the cat - is that all being itk means is they know someone else who feeds them info.

So they can grandstand and lap up the adulation when that person is right, but they tend to get it tight when the info theyre fed is wrong.

I have no doubt that the saughton guy was passing on his info in good faith (and enjoying the limelight), but his info was all from a self important has been estate agent, whose previous record is running a football club included running up unsustainable debts (and threatening tynecastle as a result) and selling up to romanov, who also nearly killed the club.

The itk people tend not to enjoy the fall as much as the rise, as we saw when hibs.net's own transfer guru disappeared in the huff.

Let's not talk about 16. That INCLUDES the 4 clubs with a huge financial vested interest in change who were guaranteed to vote in favour.

It was 12 out of 38 clubs (less than a 1/3rd). That's not even close, and frankly embarrassing for the Yams and their media campaigners. Even Trump will do better than that.

[Mon Dieu4]

Yam statement is out, they've started legal proceedings

[Hibs90]

The SPFL Board has today announced that any reconstruction proposals for season 2020/21 will not proceed to a vote due to a lack of support from other member clubs.

To say we are disappointed, yet sadly not surprised, at this outcome is, of course, an understatement. We have, from the outset, worked tirelessly with fellow clubs and the SPFL Board to try to find a solution that would right the most obvious wrongs that have been caused in Scottish football by decisions taken as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hearts, along with many others, have stated repeatedly that no club should be disproportionately disadvantaged because of this crisis. This was the final opportunity for kinship to prevail and for Scottish football to stand together in an emergency. It is an unfortunate condemnation of Scottish football that this was not possible.

We thank those who were open minded, pragmatic and willing to come together to try and reach a fair outcome for all. Sadly, there were too few of us.

Now that all other avenues are closed, we are left with no choice but to proceed with a legal challenge. The club has tried throughout these last few months to avoid this course of action but we must now do the right thing by our supporters, our employees, our players and our sponsors, all of whom have been unwavering in their commitment and support. We can hold our heads up high as we have acted at all times with integrity, common sense and with the best interests of Scottish football at heart.

We have stated from the beginning that the unjust and unfair treatment of Hearts, Partick Thistle, Stranraer and indeed other clubs cannot be allowed to go unchallenged. While many weeks have been wasted in trying to find a solution, we must now formally challenge this outcome.

The club can confirm that the necessary steps have been taken to begin this legal challenge. Given that this is now an active legal matter, the club will be offering no further comment at this time.

To our amazing fans we say that we cannot, and will not, sit idly by and watch the decisions made in the past few months further damage Heart of Midlothian Football Club. Thank you for fighting for us, now allow us to do the same for you

[calumhibee1]

This legal challenge will be a damp squib. They’ll get swatted aside like the diddy second tier club they are.

The second most relegations from the top tier since we created a premier division. The yo-yo club will be back soon enough - although probably only for a few years again.

If they delay the start of the season they will become the most despised team in the land.

Would also expect the Sportsound jambo tribute act to change their tune as they have constantly banged on about the unfairness of relegation for them - surely jeopardising the start of the season puts more clubs at risk, which, if you ask the plums on the radio, is what this has been all about.

Clubs have not been voting purely to stick it up those relegated, it's been done for the best interest of the game.

It was permanent. So we would definitely have been stuck with it.

[hfc rd]

They’ve got absolutely no chance in court. The board have allowed them to forward league reconstruction proposals which were swiftly dismissed by the majority. Rangers even put forward a proposal and that was rejected by the majority as well. The SPFL then put forward a proposal and only 16 clubs out of 42 voted in favour. It’s a simple message that they just cannot seem to understand - no one wants league reconstruction!

[Aldo]

But it’s clearly not out of self interest but it’s about sporting integrity.

FWIW they could be digging a hole they cannot get out! It’s now not just the SPFL Board they are taking on it’s it’s members and the SFA who govern the laws and rules of the game.

Null and void would have been way more unfair on the winners as relegation has been to those relegated.

They'll change their tune alright when this legal action has the potential to upset the old firm.

[Bobo]

The SPFL/SFA should revoke hear7s membership from Scottish football and then reinstate both Patrick Thistle and Stranraer to their respective leagues. They could then arrange a 2 tie playoff between Kelly Hearts and Brora Rangers for the vacant spot in division 2.

It really is a resounding kick in the baws to Budge though. Everyone else is wrong apart from the few who would have gained from it aye?? :na na:

[Victor]

Anyone any idea what the grounds for their legal action will be? The SPFL is a members association with each of the 42 clubs having a vote. Any majority’s required are dependent on the issue in hand and are clearly defined by the constitution, rules and regulations. The clubs voted unanimously to end the season, the clubs voted overwhelmingly against reconstruction. What is unfair in that?

[tomf]

It appears they are going down the legal route. They should perhaps consider the old adage about picking your battles. Relegating anyone else would have been unfair but the league being called absolutely according to the rules with the champions being declared and the bottom team relegated was FAIR. They bleat on about the fact that no team should suffer unfairly because of the pandemic but then surely the converse is true; no team should unfairly benefit as a result of decisions made because of the pandemic. The bottom team in the SPL escaping relegation and therefore the championship winning team being denied their place in the SPL; now that would be unfair.

"First of all let me apologise to all Jambos on here for all the information I received and posted in good faith. To anyone who thinks I was playing members on here, then you are entitled to your opinion and no doubt your minds are made up. After speaking with LD a short time ago then I have no doubt that his contact was sincere with his information, likewise when it was given to me. I’m as gutted as the rest of us are. I’m also sorry to the members who I have been in private conversation with as this has ended in the most horrific way for us all. Once again I can only apologise for getting people’s hopes us and I include my own on that. Gut wrenching does not even come close to how I feel at the moment.


As for the crowdfunding page, it was closed down at the request of the management of HMFC as it was felt it was detracting from the objectives of the FOH. They would rather any monies raised to fight a court case is actioned through the FOH ans. it independently. I have respected and complied with their wishes as such.

The final tally of £1,295 has been paid over in two instalments. The first for £1100 and the second for £195. All admin costs were paid for by myself so our club receives the full amount that was raised. Had I had an incline that this vote was 16-26 against, i may have been inclined to ignore the wishes of the club and kept this going.


We live to fight another day and will never forget the clubs that have conspired to put us down.

:agree: Absolutely. It's utter hypocrisy. They've finally had a chance to belatedly find an element of dignity and accept the position but as usual have blown it. Brings to mind the JKB thread a few months ago about why so many other fans hate Hearts - today's just a reminder of why.

[Man Down Under]

They bleat on about the fact that no team should suffer unfairly because of the pandemic
An expanded league which was expected to be developed and functioning within a few weeks would cause much more suffering than a standard relegation.

With the odious little man leading their legal team one wonders how they can possibly fail. As someone else pointed out he has probably been in court more often as the accused than in any other capacity. His advice must be sought. One imagines that they will ultimately be looking for compensation as every other avenue would simply be madness and cause so much self-inflicted damage to Scottish football and their own club as to be an act of bewildering stupidity. Their argument for a parachute payment or compensation may be undermined by their own insistence that they are financially sound and their insidious attempts at gaslighting. One notes that the first report mentioned how they would be seeking damages that could result in costing the SPFL many millions...ffs...IF and only IF they have a case, can win it and be awarded costs; or else it costs them many millions. It is essentially a gamble, it is not a foregone conclusion. Let's hope this isn't the trend for future reporting, pundits, interviews, Sportsound debates etc, etc

It is and what they are doing now is taking the associated members that make up the SPFL to court including those who voted for reconstruction. Totally bizarre that they have said they have the interesting of all of Scottish Football at heart yet they go and do this!

I wonder if the SFA will make any sort of statement regarding this possible legal action?

How much do they reckon they will win according to onedivisionback?

[WoreTheGreen]

If only we could make some sort of hand gesture - any ideas???

Gareth Hunt coffee ad springs to mind

How much do they reckon they will win according to onedivisionback?

It was up to £8m this morning, but at the current rate of inflation for the marrow pound it must be north of £10m by now

Well that’s debatable. Anywhere from £3 million to 8 million is what budges puppet Banderson has printed recently!

However they should be asking this.... how much will it cost them should they lose??

The ambulance chasing lawyers will be fighting in the streets for this case.

But it’s clearly not out of self interest but it’s about sporting integrity.

FWIW they could be digging a hole they cannot get out! It’s now not just the SPFL Board they are taking on it’s it’s members and the SFA who govern the laws and rules of the game.

This documentary is going to be superb!

Can’t wait for the documentary.

Even the BBC are trolling the maroon mutants!

Story about the Fartz launching legal action but they have included the goal that saved St. Mirren - absolutely wonderful

Making the point that it is sporting integrity that pit Hearts bottom!

"First of all let me apologise to all Jambos on here for all the information I received and posted in good faith. To anyone who thinks I was playing members on here, then you are entitled to your opinion and no doubt your minds are made up. After speaking with LD a short time ago then I have no doubt that his contact was sincere with his information, likewise when it was given to me. I’m as gutted as the rest of us are. I’m also sorry to the members who I have been in private conversation with as this has ended in the most horrific way for us all. Once again I can only apologise for getting people’s hopes us and I include my own on that. Gut wrenching does not even come close to how I feel at the moment.


As for the crowdfunding page, it was closed down at the request of the management of HMFC as it was felt it was detracting from the objectives of the FOH. They would rather any monies raised to fight a court case is actioned through the FOH ans. it independently. I have respected and complied with their wishes as such.

The final tally of £1,295 has been paid over in two instalments. The first for £1100 and the second for £195. All admin costs were paid for by myself so our club receives the full amount that was raised. Had I had an incline that this vote was 16-26 against, i may have been inclined to ignore the wishes of the club and kept this going.


We live to fight another day and will never forget the clubs that have conspired to put us down.

Leslie Deans part in all of this has more likely done them more harm than good and turned clubs against them rather than in favour of them. I'd expect it would all have been done with Budge's blessing but wouldn't be surprised if she now tries to distance herself from him by suggesting he was acting without her knowledge. In reality, she has made yet another bad decision by backing the wrong person.

The guy was on the attack from the outset when tact and diplomacy was required. Something more along the lines of the Partick statement. When you are in the minority of 1 and you need to get about 30 others on your side but then start chucking threats of legal action around right from the off then no wonder so many of the clubs thought "sod you then, see you in court". They are now potentially even making themselves enemies of those that voted for reconstruction.

Hearts and their fans must now really regret their threats of legal action and dismissing "diddy clubs" (that they finished behind). All come back to bite them on the arse. Never seen a club handle something so poorly.

[Hibernianinc]

We’re one of the clubs negatively impacted by the SPFLs post-Covid decisions.

Will we get a healthy chunk of the £8m, no £10m, no £12m they’re going to be awarded?

[EI255]

It's actually a three pronged bonus as Hearts, Kelty HEARTS and Brora RANGERS all got hit today [emoji16]

Where did Doncaster get his ‘there is sufficient interest in reconstruction’ from?
