A 12 point deduction would seem fair to me .

3 point penalty for every fixture they’re unable to fulfil wouldn’t be unreasonable IMO.
Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

A just punishment but a dangerous precedent. Can you imagine if the league comes down to the wire for 10 in a row. You could have potential attacks on old firm players to stop/gain 10 in a row happening.
Aberdeen were willing to play this game until the government stepped in too.
I think ban for every player involved of around 10 games would be more apt.

I agree Aberdeen should be punished starting with yesterday's game being awarded to St Johnstone with a 5goal deficit. Any other affected games should incur the same penalty. All players involved should also be given a 5 game ban.

On Sportscene Final results, they questioned with the 8 players not able to play in their next 2 games, it could give an unfair advantage to play them after they get these players back!
If that's the case surely all games they play should be postponed till all the players are back?

Seen that muppet Andy Walker spouting the same crap on Sky sports yesterday, about maintaining the integrity of the sporting competition or some *****, the players made an arse of it, if another club benefits from that then so be it. Hopefully the Accies get a result and it’ll put even more daylight between us and the Dons.

Aberdeen the club didn't do anything wrong, but can be punished by having to play matches with a weakened squad. They dodged a bullet by not having to play St Johnstone yesterday. Can't agree with their opponents benefitting with an automatic 3-0 win.
Remember that if any of us breaks the rules, then we are the ones who get fined and not our employers.Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

I’m sure Aberdeen will fine all involved. Game on Sat should have went ahead . Doesn’t make sense to postpone one and play the other two .

It is well reported that some of our players were out last Saturday too. The only difference between them and the Aberdeen players is sheer luck.

Fans of other clubs making assumptions that their players are angels are just daft.

They've jeopardised their clubs income, their fellow professionals ability to work and the return to recreational football for thousands of amateurs.
The clubs were given protocols that they had to follow with regard to getting a return to football, I'm sure within that will be adhering to government restrictions with regard to socialising.
If any club has failed to properly train their staff in the adherence of the rules then yes the club must be punished, they have failed in their duty which they knowingly signed up to. I include Hibs or any other team in that.
If we lose all levels of football due to player stupidity, and clubs not realising how stupid their staff can be, then I'll be mad if there's no comeback for that.

Dead simple, fine the players and give the money to their local NHS trust.
Warn all clubs similarly. Done.

The 8 players involved should have their registrations suspended for the season they just put in jeopardy and Aberdeen FC given a new registration ban for remainder of this window.

If you were caught speeding, drink-driving or smacking someone, your employer wouldn’t be punished but they might take action against you (especially if it had a material impact on your ability to do your job).

Still don't know why they weren't required to complete the fixtures. If they have to put out youth players, so be it.
