    Brilliant news, Killie, Livingston and accies all benefited unfairly. Still maintain that kept Killie up their first season back.

    ....and not forgetting the Accies away game in the play offs a good few years back. Remember them only watering our half at half time and the ball skimming along the surface and into our net, cheating b4stards.

    A step in the right direction for Scottish football. And we can't say that very often.

    I wonder if it's possible to bring in plastic officials instead? They'd be a lot more competent than what we are used to! 😉

    Also,let's get VAR away to f*ck too while we are at it.

    Agreed.

    There's all this talk of community use, financial viability, but our top league needs to be attractive to sponsors and televised matches on plastic are horrific to watch.

    If clubs can't survive without community use of plastic pitches they've no divine right to be be playing in the Premiership. It needs to be a level playing field. Literally. Because clubs with plastic save money on training bases which in turn allows them to spend on players wages.

    So yeah, f**k them.

    Should never have been allowed in the first place,my only question is with Killie going to grass in a year's time why are we giving a two year grace period?.If Livi or Raith come up we will need to play on their plastic for another season.
