It was after the lockdown came in that the SFA said the cup will be played to a conclusion once the world is back to being in a place where games can take place againQuote:

Hearts have about Four Goalkeepers, and probably Fifty Outfield Players on their books. They don't need any new signings to play one game.
By that logic, award points as if they were league matches. Hibs and Aberdeen have 13 points, celtc and Hearts have 12.😉Quote:

Give us all something to look forward to; the games could be beamed all over the World on T.V. The Europe spot can go to 4th place in the league for this year. **** the hertz.
Great exposure and lots more cash from TV. around the World. Our own owner has plenty experience in such things with his background in Spanish speaking sport on T.V. etc.
Scottish Fitba needs to get out of its small parochial little box and look forward.
Celtic and Hearts have a game in hand.Quote:

Belgian football initially incurred UEFA's wrath after they declared their season over, only to announce a u-turn later.
Now UEFA have turned to one of their countrymen to get a definite verdict on when football can return.
And he's advised UEFA to bin the season immediately.

They are truly unbelievable and never let the facts get in the way of their agenda.
The last line in the article about how mass events like football matches or music festivals being the last part of any exit strategy is the real big one for me.Quote:

I'd be all for awarding Hearts the Scottish cup if it means they are relegated. In fact I'd even nip along to solo clap at their parade.
Quite frankly do not believe the version that they sent an email in at midday and technically didn't reach the spfl. Not a chance that happened imo.Quote:

It’s fair to assume that I had a couple of shandies down me and was looking for bites.
That’s actually very out of character for me. I apologise to anyone I managed to piss off.

Absolutely. UEFAs fantasising about the season being played out against all the medical evidence and common sense is as mad as anything we've seen from the SFA in recent years. Had they not been so blinded by the extra few quid they could squeeze out, and focused on the real needs of member nations they could have made this whole process so much easier for all. Instead, UEFA have been part of the problem. They need to reflect on their own behaviour and guidance, get real about how important football is relative to life generally, and relegate Hearts.Quote:

What gets me is Hearts fans talking about how this is vindication that 'Vlad' was correct all along and we are seeing proof that Scottish football is corrupt and so on.
What they are ignoring is that if any other team was currently bottom of the league, Hearts would have voted for the proposals in exactly the same way and for the same reasons that Hibs, Aberdeen, Celtic et al have. Scottish football may well be corrupt but they would have been quite happy to have been complicit in that corruption if it was in their interests.

No dispensation is required if a player is a free agent when the transfer window closes. I'll stand corrected but Conrad Logan I'm pretty sure was a free agent when he signed for us.Quote:

Yep. Also slagging Aberdeen and us for “taking the Celtic boaby” (they are strangely obsessed with anal sex) while never acknowledging that if it was any other team bottom of the league they would have voted similar instead of acting like some kind of justice fighters.Quote:

Yip, according to Kickback this is all being orchestrated by Peter Lawell. I’m not sure why CELTIC would get involved? So long as it’s not ‘null and void’, and it appears nobody wants that, then Celtic have no worries whatever is decided? If the vote is to complete the season in August and risk the new season, then Celtic have the deepest pockets in Scotland so will be more than prepared to wait. They would have no fears whatsoever on a sporting front with a 13 point league with 8 to play. I think they would be more than happy to play the games.Quote:

Clearly the flipside of this argument is that - if you promote the winners, you must relegate the bottom sides.
Its all fairly simple, and points to why so many clubs have voted Yes (regardless of Rangers / Hearts / ICT / Dundee conspiracy theories).
Conspiracy you say. Many would agree with you.Quote:

EUEFA needs to step in and have a blanket rule to end all leagues with average points etc. No league reconstructions unless already planned. If they don’t then there will infighting and bad blood across all leagues with clubs blaming each other for acting in self interest or doing over bitter rivals. It’s crazy allowing leagues to decide their own fate this way. There may be exceptions of course due to how many games were left in certain leagues but a blanket ruling from EUEFA for those who have played the majority of their seasons is a must
Ah....but he only had 1 ball 😆Quote:
