Yet, within two shakes of a lapdog's tail, the SPFL has it. Reminds me of my last full-time job if you needed something spread all that had to be done was pass the info to one particular worker not to say anything and within minutes everybody knew.? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Rangers won't win anything at next week's meeting and they must know that. So presumably this is just a step along the way to a legal showdown 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 6,787 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Key points according to The Sun Gers accuse chief executive Neil Doncaster of holding back key information from clubs and being ‘the guiding hand’ who determined the league’s actions. They claim the SPFL could be liable for up to £10million in refunds to broadcasters by ending the season prematurely. Gers say Doncaster suggested the SPFL handed over a sponsorship deal to Sky Sports which was significantly below the league’s market value. They question why SPFL lawyer Rod McKenzie issued four ‘cease and desist’ requests to Ibrox chairman Douglas Park - insisting he blocked their bid for a new resolution. They query a letter sent to UEFA outlining how Scotland’s clubs wanted the season over before any vote had taken place. And they insist there are still unanswered questions on why Dundee performed a voting U-turn. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe worth SPFL going back and actually reading the dossier? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I am being an optimist but this now has the makings of blowing Scottish football wide open.... and that will be something that Doncaster, McKenzie, Shifty, Lawwell & Celtic will be very, very keen to prevent from happening. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm. That sounds like 60/40 at best. I prefer m’learned friends to tell me the Court will almost certainly make an order. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
