    Tom English on reconstruction.

    Whenever i hear that club chairmen and CEO's are now "Really open-minded" on something a klaxon goes off in my head to remind me of the hundred times i've heard this before when open minds rapidly shut as people started to talk money.

    So, I have to agree with Rangers here about the corruption on the SPFL board. I'm sure their fans, along with the club would agree with this resolution:

    As the SPFL board and their board members are corrupt, I think we can all agree on that, and that the board members are from SPFL clubs, all clubs with a member on the board should be punished by starting next season with -10 points.

    So lets have a look at the board members from SPFL clubs - Alan Burrows (Motherwell), Les Gray (Hamilton Academical), Stewart Robertson (Rangers), Ross McArthur (Dunfermline Athletic), Ewen Cameron (Alloa Athletic), Ken Ferguson (Brechin City) and Peter Davidson (Montrose).

    Seems fair and just.

    Remember for league reconstruction to happen its 11/1 in the Premiership and 75% for the league's below.

    Lets say it went to a 14 team top league BUT for 1 year only and it goes back to 12 the following season this is how i see it panning out.At the end of next season 3 teams go down and even 4th bottom have a play off.Now the likes of Hamilton,Livingston and ST Mirren will be thinking that ICT will go but United may well survive so that means all 3 of us may well go down.
    Its safe to to say The Rangers will vote against anything DFC have had a hand in and it only takes one of the other clubs i have mentioned to do the same and the vote fails.

    its mind boggling the levels of stupidity and ignorance within that club and its so called fan base. All that talk of boycott reminded me of the last time - Its the same old theme, since 1916 in your head, in your head - zombie, zombie, zombie

    Jim_Jam - concise and probably very accurate

    Congratulations, I'd have liked to see the season finish but am very happy you've been declared Champions. I backed you heavily ante-post so naturally did not want the season null and voided.
    It's not often I make money from betting on football North of the border. My interest in The Scottish Championship 2019-20 was initially sparked by David Hopkin's appointment at Greenock Morton. He did very well at Livingston and had a thankless task at Bradford City. Looking at things more closely though I could see how very difficult it would be for him this season. Then I noticed what a squad Robbie Neilson was building and once Shankland signed you were rightly clear favourites. I'd backed MK Dons when Neilson was there and that was disastrous but he made up for it this time.
    Good Luck in The Premiership next season!

    Has anyone any evidence of this corruption? Have they reported this evidence to Police Scotland? Are they suggesting all the names mentioned are corrupt or just some of them. If no evidence is forthcoming I'd suggest the poster could be subject to legal action.

    You were obviously not taken in by Scottish football's power brokers up the road from us who continually told us they had the best squad in the Championship.This became somewhat diluted after the 6-2 victory at Tannadice.Well done on your bet and Arabest.
