I think he talks perfect sense there. He explains why things happened the way they did.
I suppose he could have said anything and been criticised.

“ Doncaster said: “If you start allowing individual clubs to decide if they are going to fulfil a fixture then that’s where madness lies.”
Celtic were allowed to not fulfil the original date and reschedule to allow for a wee jolly and piss up in Dubai. Yet a club wanting to ensure the safety of their players is “madness”.
Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

"Hibs were already raging the original date for the Celtic match was put back 48 hours to allow Neil Lennon to take his squad to Dubai.
Doncaster said: “I had various conversations with Hibernian around that time. It’s for the club to take their own view on what happened.
“But we have to recall it was a Celtic home game we were talking about. Just as last weekend we had a Livingston home game which they requested be rescheduled.
“We agreed that request without reference to Ross County. So we have to apply the rules fairly and evenly to all.”"

It's probably what happens when Hibs & Hearts are both drawn at home or if a class A match clashes with the rugby at Murrayfield.
And it certainly sounds like they didn't consult Ross County.

Scottish FA chief executive Ian Maxwell has written to all 10 Championship clubs asking if they want to continue playing or suspend their league.

Play out the premiership with no relegation and void the lower leagues?

The absolute banter if the Championship got cancelled and Hertz stayed down another season, while the Premiership continued and we qualified for Europe would be side splitting.
Especially if the League Cup still carried on because it’s only got Premiership teams left in it and we ended up winning the final.
They’d explode

Do I think that Doncaster does a good job of promoting Scottish Football and getting additional income, absolutely not.
Do I think that he applies the rules agreed by all the member clubs, yes he does and I'd go as far as saying that he's applies them without fear or favour.
Celtic moving the game is within the rules of the SPFL, the rules don't state that you can't do it for a jolly to Dubai. It simply says that you can move a home game by (probably) meeting certain criteria. Hibs would be well aware of this and they'd be well aware of the covid testing protocol, they were absolutely within their rights to ask and morally it was the right thing to do. But equally the SPFL looked at the rules and as soon as Celtic said no there wasn't any other avenue that wouldn't have serious implications to Hibs...Celtic probably knew that and hoped that Hibs would forfeit the fixture.

The request doesn’t have to be approved though. And I’d expect them to use their noggin and reject said request to ensure that all games that Celtic are behind are caught up at the earliest opportunity, especially this year, where there is a very real possibility of a curtailed season again.

Unfortunately for you, you don't run the SPFL. There's no point in banging on about this stuff.

Our next game against Celtic should be at home so we should request a change of date just to annoy them.

You’re right, on a day when they’ve had two more monumental **** ups, we shouldn’t talk about things on a fans forum. The tribunal handed them their first defeat, and the fact they’re now asking championship clubs about a break (stating a club has gone public in backing a full stoppage when no club has done so, a day after stating the championship is imperative to commercial contracts and giving the clubs an option where they never gave the league 1 and 2 clubs the same luxury).

Celtc would object and this time the objection would be upheld. That would be further evidence of the Ugly Sisters being favoured over the football clubs but, as with all the other evidence, nothing will happen.Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.
