Bit odd the SPFL haven’t mentioned any further reconstruction talks in their statement?

Because they know its unworkable. The only thing wrong here is a club not wanting to take their medicine.

Until it is announced officially that there is no re-construction I will wait until I celebrate.
I think there is something going on in the background re-construction.

[GreenCastle]

Anytime mentions reconstruction just say..

Ok..

Dundee Utd, Inverness and Dundee up..Hearts down and see the reaction. Priceless.

Don’t worry Budge will make sure reconstruction is still on the table in case they struggle to get promoted next season. She will be desperate for expanded league next year !

I think my mind will be put at ease a bit more when Budge has released her waffling statement.

[Heisenberg]

Hearts going to submit a reconstruction plan as a members resolution, which means another vote. Only needs 3 SPFL clubs to back it to go to a vote so no surprises it’s got what it needs.

She’s basically said, reconstruct the leagues or we’re taking you to court.

As Hearts were relegated today, reconstruction to a 14 team top league would surely involve promoting Dundee and ICT

She said there had been positive talks about reconstruction before and it got swiftly binned. I’m sure these latest talks will have been held with the likes of Inverness, Partick, Falkirk etc.

"The cost to the club to take legal action will out way the cost of relegation"

Only if they win their case which is highly unlikely and its probably not in their best interest to take on Scottish football..

Shes threatening to take the spfl to court because her club finished bottom.
They’re not being punished at all, they’re looking to take advantage of covid 19. They should be getting a points deduction for this.

Now that they’ve been officially relegated and if reconstruction was to get voted through, on what grounds would it be Hearts that get added to the top league?

That's what I'm wondering, they have been officially relegated if they want 14 teams then surely it's the next best placed in then championship? I must be missing something very obvious?

Mrs Budge, in her statement today, says that she’s going to take forward a member’s resolution. On the basis of the Sevco Resolution she’ll need to get 2 supporters. Presumably Partick and Stranraer will support. So it looks like reconstruction will go back to the full SPFL vote. Flogging a dead horse in my view.

Bring on the court case. An opportunity to liquidate Leslie Deans, Hearts into admin and still relegated.

That’s the perfect hat trick.

[Waxy]

Probably be easier now to just go to court. Then the right thing will be done and they can shut up.

Surely the season is done now. Have a week off Budge.

Is she going to tell the likes of Stranraer that they are "diddy clubs" and dont really have a role in the future of football, along with the vast mafority of clubs in League 1 + 2?

By all means let AB take it to court, when she loses the SPFL should withdraw their licence to compete in the league and promote Kelty or whoever into the lower league. Job done

If it goes to court how long is it likely to take before they get a ruling? Surely wouldn’t be done before season starts? Plus if Hearts won the case then surely the SPFL would then appeal it - process will take months!

I wouldn't mind permanent, well thought-out, for the good of the game reconstruction.

A rush job just to save three teams - two of whom were going down anyway, is not ok.

Yep basically a threat to sue. Should be told to bolt.

[seanshow]

Vague threats of legal action if you dont accept our reconstruction recommendations, good luck with that and get your throbber Deans to represent you against the Spfl and Uefa.

[Waxy]

Its been proven that 14 team leagues cant work and ultimately are a cause of unfairness. That leaves 16 or more, all stop the 4 old firm matches which means them and sky loss millions.
Enjoy the championship.

"As previously intimated the club has been taking legal advice throughout this process and are continuing to do so. We hope that the resolution being prepared will avoid the need to go down this route. Legal action would be both time consuming and expensive. However the cost to the club of relegation would outweigh these considerations"

What if they lose and then have to cover the costs of others?? - can they afford legal action?
