After looking at their comments on kickback i’d tell the delusional, arrogant, snidey ****s to ram it. Hopefully the hope as well as relegation sees them gone.

She’s got till Monday 😂

So sick of this. We should help Dundee with loan players next season because of this.
Hearts relegated on monday then? I'll pick up the bottle of bubbly tomorrow.
For those who are not willing to click on the link, Mail Sport understands the move is doomed to fail.
Also the quote from the Stenhousemuir Chairman, McMenemy who can’t believe reconstruction talks are back on the agenda – and says Budge must get the proposal out quickly to avoid more weeks of in-fighting. McMenemy said: “When I heard, it was a bit of surprise, a feeling of deja vu.
“The message from the SPFL EGM was to draw a line under the last few weeks after Votegate – Dundee’s magic vote – and reconstruction talks that completely fell apart, come together and move on.
“Now, one of the big divisive issues is back again.
“If they’ve got something they want us to discuss, they have to let us know as soon as possible to avoid six more weeks of civil war.”
They’re biting like nothing I’ve seen for a long time on social media just now :hilarious
Its going to be a full on comfort blanketfest on Tuesday. It would be poetic if that’s the day relegation is finally confirmed.
I wish they would just **** off. I am getting a bit bored with this now so have stopped following every but of info so someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
The tarts are at the bottom of the league, the league has been called as over. They should go down. They had an opportunity led by budge to set up a task force, not a working group, a task force to look at league reconstruction that would save the whole of Scottish football not just the tarts. She couldn't come up with anything new, anything revolutionary, anything that the majority of clubs could agree with. She was told this even before the vote took place. Now they expect this genius to come up with something radical before Monday??!! Get them down, get them into admin and hopefully oblivion. Self absorbed delusional fuds. Not to mention cheats and thieves
Boring as **** now. The game in Scotland is on a cliff edge, we need to focus on saving it, not on this nonsense.
P.s. Jambos on Twitter going tonto about the graphic used on the back page of the Mail (a bloody knife through the Hertz crest) tagging police Scotland etc lol.
Hearts if they do avoid relegation are being humiliated as they are literally begging to stay up. They wouldn’t be allowed to ever forget it.
Is this how big teams are supposed to behave?
Good entertainment though
The won't give a flying one how they stay up, and neither would I in the same position.
i think the picture must have changed for reconstruction to be up for consideration again, i hope hibs and the others stay firm as they absolutely deserve to be relegated
Once relegation is confirmed.
I look forward to Budge “multi tasking” and continuing to do this through the summer.
In reality she will squirm off with tail between her legs - release an update on hearts website saying she tried everything to keep the club up and then never mention reconstruction ever again.
It’s not just the fact they should be relegated but we would then be stuck with at least 2 years in some pretend league. I can’t see Sky liking it either as it would be a very uneven distribution of big games. Hibs would lose out financially as there would be many hundreds who ask for a ST refund if we changed the structure just to save Hearts. Then three if not four teams from the bottom eight would face relegation in two years. It would be turkeys voting for Christmas.
Thread on kickback expelled not relegated 😅

Let's keep it simple.
Going down Hearts are going down, nah naha...
I think they'll extend the size of the league to thirteen teams next season, just to save Hearts.
Expelled or relegated means the same thing. The fact that they are in a position to be expelled or relegated is their real issue and glossing over it and pointing the blame at others would put the OF to shame in terms of conspiracy theories.
She'll be hailed as the Saviour of Hearts if she pulls this off - at least for a few weeks and months, until Hearts realise she was the main reason for the mess they find themselves in.
I fear Budge has threatened legal action unless she gets a fair hearing on reconstruction. Her success will depend on how strong the SPFL feel that case is.
Looks like tomorrow is D-Day after UEFA have given the SPFL the green light to crown Celtic Champions and relegate the Big team

They're not being expelled if they were they would be out the SPFL altogether playing in the Lowland League or Juniors. That was that twat Deans slavering on last week they are being relegated because they are bottom of the league when the league is being deemed to be finished by the SPFL board as per the rules or articles of the SPFL.
However that image on the back of the Sunday Mail is ****ing disgusting but we shouldn't be surprised by that rag.
Could work as a temporary restructure, but, with an option for a further temporary restructure to 14 the following season depending on who ends up bottom.
Mrs doctor Budge should have the sole power to decide if and when to call these changes so as to prevent Scottish football being dragged through the mud again, and to ensure sporting integrity.

Am I right I’m thinking that back in April Budge had a meeting with the SPFL, floated the idea of reconstruction and they said fine go away and try to get backing and have a credible plan then we’ll consider it. She then had a meeting with the premier league clubs in the last couple of weeks and they said nah, don’t really fancy it so she went in the cream puff. There was a meeting with the SPFL again last week and they said fine go away and try to get backing and have a credible plan and we can have a vote on it.
Am I missing something here but nothing seems to have changed over the last month and this is yet another example of Budge being out of her depth and simply unable to navigate a fairly simple governance process.
The statement from the SPFL after their resolution was passed stated:-
“ The SPFL board has also committed to consult on possible league restructuring in time for season 2020/21 around an expanded Premiership model and has appointed Hearts chair Ann Budge and Hamilton Academical chair Les Gray to jointly lead a reconstruction task force, bringing in other football figures to provide input and support. The SPFL executive will provide all possible services and support to make the work of the task force a success.”
So they are committed to consult on restructuring. The report that Mrs Budge will submit tomorrow will presumably describe the consultations that the Restructuring Task Force has carried out. I would imagine that the SPFL will want to circulate the report to all clubs to sound out opinion, but it looks like the Board will make the decision on whether to pursue reconstruction and there will be no need for a further resolution if they decide not to proceed with it. Given that the Premiership clubs rejected it last week I’d expect the SPFL to say “Thanks but no thanks.“
..and what happens if they finish bottom of a 14 team league?
Increase to 16? What would defo happen is i would pee ma pants in mirth! 😅😅
The meeting tomorrow is to rubber stamp the calling of the leagues as agreed on Friday y. Allegedly that’s a formality. To have a vote on reconstruction I assume there will have to be yet another meeting of all 42 clubs. What has changed since they said reconstruction ain’t happening. Seems all just white noise to me.
That’s my understanding, they would have to look at Budge’s proposal and decide whether they agree to let clubs vote on it. Unless the majority of Premiership clubs have changed their minds then there’s no point having the vote. I think the SPFL board will throw it out before it gets to a vote.
Never in the 130 years of the football league in Scotland has there been a less dignified relegation.
If you had to predict who that club might have been your first guess would always have been Hearts.
Relegate hertz first, then vote on reconstruction
Tomorrow the SPFL Board will ask to see the report and ask Dr Mrs Budge if she has gained any support for her proposal. Dr Mrs Budge will then have to admit that the Premier League clubs by and large told her where to put it.
The Board will theN thank Dr Mrs Budge for her work, congratulate her on her multi-tasking and give her their best wishes for next season in the Championship. ‘And could you close the door on the way out, Dr Mrs Budge’.
Hearts haven't come out of this well at all. No class whatsoever
I’m extremely biased but I think an objective observer would see how amateur she has been in the way she has conducted herself. She must be someone who has got her own way by causing a fuss and making overblown threats, based on not much else other than hot air. The press coverage of the situation has been equally amateur or nothing more than clickbate.
Ozzy as i said earlier if this is temp fix and we are to go back to 12 from 14 potentially 4 teams could be relegated no one is going to vote for that...i don't see what new solution she can offer .
I cannot work this out at all .
As for going to court how can you take your fellow club members to court for voting as per the rules for what they want.
When you think it through this must be all over tomorrow lunchtime . All things settled and hearts down

I am now of the mind that if we could find a way to finish the league then let’s do it. I know it’s not going to happen, not now, but imagine the shock the maroon mutants would get if they were expected to play 8 remaining games.
They have sickened the players with pay cuts and the way they went about it and by all accounts the players have little fitness programmes given the uncertainty with the staff and manager and coaches.
Hearts r like that 💩 that won’t go away no matter how much times u flush 🚽
I'm with you on this for sure but we really have to have a provision for Hearts landing in last place again.
Maybe a Save Hearts In Trouble type clause that applies only to Hearts if they face relegation as they are the only club that won't accept finishing bottom as a result of their off pitch decisions and on pitch performances. Another first.

I'd genuinely be embarrassed if that was my team. Classless. Their fans are lapping it up though. Becoming more like their Govan brothers with every passing day. The funny thing is I couldn't be any prouder of how we've conducted ourselves lately and not just with the Coronavirus situation. That's the difference.
Looks like league called tomorrow, Budge not submitted any reconstruction plans to the league yet. This is her last chance but a classic DR “source” has said there’s an appetite for reconstruction or giving hearts some financial compensation if relegated.
Someone tell me they are definitely down tomorrow, please!
Who will be paying this compensation?
I'm probably in a minority who doesn't think it's fair that anyone is being relegated like this, and is therefore open to reconstruction...but will this pay out lessen anything we are entitled to?
Also, wouldn't compensation be unfair on their Championship rivals?
Only fair that compensation should be the same as Partick and Stranraer. £10,000 should do the trick.
What could they say to persuade Hamilton and St Mirren etc...?
Also, when people mention 'appetite for reconstruction', they maybe mean that the big teams are open to the idea. What they might forget is that in a democracy, the will of St Mirren is just as important as that of Aberdeen or Rangers and their single votes will count exactly the same.
During the Romanov era I wrote a fairly well informed piece for this website on the state of Hearts finances at the time. It was based on EN reports and Hearts own statements at the time so how could it be anything but accurate? I would remind anyone who might consider voting in favour of a reconstruction of the league that, if we are to believe recent reports, the financial situation at Tynecastle still appears to be something of an issue. It would seem obvious to me that reconstruction is not the answer if Hearts finances are the problem as more teams in the SPL would mean they would get even less than they do currently. If Hearts finances are not the problem then let them go down so that they can no doubt return stronger and in better shape in a few years. Wouldn’t that be the best thing for them?
Reconstruction - fair to Hearts not fair to Dundee. While Hearts get saved, ICT get promotion, far better off. If Hearts can make the points up, so can Dundee.
The fair thing is to promote one team, United. So 13 team team top league.....work that one out. As soon as Budge claims promoting ICT is fair, she loses the argument about no-one being disadvantaged.
The situation is crap, but the simplest solution is the most obvious.
Some cracking quotes from Mad Vlad.
“Our goal has to be champions of Europe. I want us to be at the stage where to do anything else, to come back without the trophy, would be shameful. I think we’re looking at three years.”
— Vladimir Romanov, October 15, 2005
“I think that the club will no longer be in debt at end of the year and a budget of £10m will be made available. Buying players will be the decision of the head coach and Anatoly Byshovets [the then director of football]. They will look after the team, my only input will be to ensure that their transfer activity is within the club’s budget.”
— Vladimir Romanov outlines his strategy for Hearts in an interview with Russian newspaper Izvestia, October 3, 2004
“I’ll put all my efforts into keeping the stadium and build an even better venue to meet the requirements of today and tomorrow — better than anything in Glasgow,” — Vladimir Romanov, November 30, 2004
The voice of a lunatic.
Does anyone know when the court dates are for the accused in the UKIO Bankas case in Lithuania?
If Mad Vlad is found guilty in his absence, should there be a concerted campaign with the SFA to have HMFC stripped of their cups? Who fancies leading that charge? Stick the knife in when they are down.
