Just drove down Roseburn along from the Roseburn bar and just outside her house they’ll have to get the police first of all there’s a big and angry crowd gathering dressed rather strangely and with pitch forks and torches shouting something like “burn the witch ,burn the witch very strange

You weren't drug driving

The more they ramp up the threats of court action in the run up to a vote on reconstruction, the more convinced I am that it is just a tactic to put pressure on clubs to vote for it.

It is a very risky tactic that could backfire. On one hand they're looking for sympathy continually going on about how unfair it is (forgetting how they've been the worst team in the league) and on the other they're holding a gun to clubs' heads by threatening court action. Feel sorry for us or we'll f*** you up. There's every chance that sort of tactic will cost them as many, or possibly more, votes as it will win them.

It's a hail Mary play from the Jambos and hail Mary's have a less than 10% success rate.

BBC Breakfast just led their football section with Hearts threatening to take legal action even before they talked about Celtic winning the league. Utterly embarrassing. Talk about coercion and threats !!

Why are the clubs allowing Hearts and Budge to fanny about with reconstruction, when they are openly threatening legal action if they don't get their way ? Who does that ?

I don't think there will be a BBC Scotland after next year's indyref, either way. It' is no longer fit for purpose, since Brexit, whatever your views.

If the narrower pro-UK forces win the 2021 Indyref vote then the control of the BBC will be shifted to HQ down south & Scottish content systematically reduced.

If the more internationalist-looking independista side emerges with the future in its hands, a more European future, it's hard to see what BBC Scotland will offer.

Either way, it's probably in its end stages, and (if we're honest) it kind of shows

We probably shouldnt concern ourselves with what lower division teams do though.

There’s no way St Mirren and Hamilton are going to vote yes to reconstruction when Dundee Utd are coming up and spending cash and Hearts couldn’t possibly be as bad next season. It would put them more at risk of relegation next year as it could be 2 straight down.

It would be three down one in play off to return to present format.

I know we shouldn’t but I have the misfortune of having them as chums on Social Media!

Just go ahead and remind them what division they're in.

I don’t need to... their silence on the subject tells me all I need to know.

Were you anywhere near the Dean Bridge? Heard is was roped off again. Lot of suicide attempts over that way just now.

Ahh. No way are clubs going to agree to that. So it’s unjust for hearts to face the financial consequences of relegation but fine for 3 teams next season. 😂

If Hearts were to save themselves with temporary reconstruction, it is absolutely guaranteed we’d finish third bottom in the season they relegated 3 to get it back to 12.

The temporary proposal seems to have disappeared. Not mentioned in Budgie's latest ramblings.

[Dashing Bob S]

I'm not even sure we should be discussing the rantings of those lunatics. I seriously doubt the football authorities are, and I think the press are only doing so as there's no real football related news with covid, and are mischief making. If I was a sports editor on a paper I'd ben giving Budge as much of a voice as possible, and encouraging her to go more out there. It's all there is.

Could it not be potentially 4 teams to be relegated? Surely the Championship aren’t going to give up their playoff place.

2 to even up the number of PL teams back to 12
1 in exchange for the promotion of the Championship Winners
1 (potentially) if the Championship team wins the playoff.

Realistically, taking the Old Firm out of the equation. it’s 4 out of 12. That’ll be some scramble.

All because this season’s rightful relegation candidates threw their toys out of the pram.

Or 4 teams from the bottom 8. Image ending up in the bottom 8 in February knowing half the teams down there could be relegated. There’s no way Dundee Utd will take that chance after spending 4 years trying for promotion and that goes for all the other teams below the old firm. Total madness and no way Hearts would go for that in any other circumstance.

[Victor]

There is already a backlog in the Law Courts, realistically it could be the end of next season before they could progress any legal action. Also surprised that no journalist has written about the complexities of bringing legal action against the SPFL.

You have to wonder why the BBC would post this propaganda right now ?

[hibbyfraelibby]

Over on Keekboak some punter tried using words he didn't understand in a poorly thought out analogy...

"A genuine threat of a Judge lifting the bonnet on the Celtic run canal"

...I am no rocket scientis but surely if you lift the bonnet in a canal you would flood the carburetor?

Of course, the BBC will have a feature on Thurs about 21.05.16. all ready to go.

Won't they...??
