Their logic is superb :aok:
Because they are the SPFL, on one hand they will be paying for the case to be heard and raise the action whilst on the other, they will be paying to defend it against themselves! Staggeringly brilliant business acumen :D

They took part in a video conference with other championships clubs yesterday
They definitely dont do irony over darkside,fair few of them on thread for fighting spfl now saying if any club cant pay wages etc they should be tossed out of League. Either this or it's vlad induced group memory loss.I lost count of the amount of times Hertz players went without wages.
We’d be doing everyone a favour and saving hearts from themselves if we don’t even bring this to a vote and finish it tomorrow.
Wake up jambos.
Watching One Born Every Minute here. Screaming like a bunch of yams going down.
Remember the boy that organised the bus and then just kept the money 😂😂

looks like the English lower leagues could be finishing on points per game played with promotion and relegation based on positions established by that method.
Much the same as our system. I wonder if clubs are lining up legal battalions to fight this injustice.
The English seem to be a bit behind us having the same arguments as we did weeks ago.
Heard a few pundits say how unfair it is to relegate teams but I’ve not heard one give a realistic alternative option, when they are pushed they just come back reiterating that it doesn’t seem fair to them.
There isn’t any fairer alternative solution, it’s as simple as that.
Correct. We are all going to suffer from this.
Relegated clubs always suffer. That’s due to them being pish.
Covid-19 isn’t a get out from that. Relegated clubs will suffer proportionally to the rest of us. A decent tip would have been to not habitually to have been the worst team in the league.
A bit like the foundation of Hearts plum I heard on the radio on Monday.
Asked what he thought of it all it was a case of mumble mumble unfair mumble then something about how unfair it was because ‘they were in the ascendancy’
Asked about why reconstruction it was more of the same mumbling interjected with some undefined supposition on that it would benefit everyone before falling back onto the fact it would stop the unfairness to Hearts.
I’ve yet to hear a logical reason for reconstruction nor have I seen any evidence of why it would be to the benefit of the whole of Scottish football....they have said it often enough but never, not once, actually explained how they have got to that conclusion.
He makes a very good point. Outside the premiership it would be unworkable for teams to start next season without fans. Thankfully we’re in the premiership so we’ll be fine to resume next season, I really feel for clubs in the second tier like hearts who might have to just shut down for a year until this all blows over. I consider myself a football fan, but safety must come first.
Absolute scenes when Hearts go bust. All captured in glorious 4K for their doc.
I've not really been paying much attention to the talk of legal action. If they start it, is it to stop them being relegated or is it to gain compensation for being, in their opinion, wrongly relegated.
They're exactly the same with the supposed £3m cost of relegation. It's only £3m because Budge came up with that figure but hasn't once substantiated it.
They might well lose £3m worth of turnover, but they could cut more than that from their wages bill and still have by far the biggest budget in the division - they've already saved their manager's wages for next year. They also can and will cut their other outgoings so relegation could actually produce a better bottom line than last year's. If they lose a net £3m that's down to their own gross mismanagement and nothing to do with relegation.
So far the decision to call the season hasn't cost them a penny so they have no competent claim for compensation at this stage even if there was any legal wrongdoing.
They could cut 3M from their wage bill and still have a better team than they had last season so honking they were.
Is the reconstruction plan due to be tabled today?
