  1. If they make it to the split everyone will have played them 3 times and so it would be considered back to a level playing field I think. No adjustments required ?

     

    But they canna hiv teams gettin points fae Gretna games if they're removin Gretna fae the equation?

  2. A load of questions need to be answered by the SPL.

     

    Are they going to strip clubs of the points already gained versus Gretna?

     

    If so, are all cautions and ordering off's going to be recinded too? In Aberdeen's case, this would mean Lee Miller in the Pittodrie match and Ricky Foster in the away match. In Millers case, due to the totting up system, he received a suspension. Does this put the SPL at risk of legalities being that Miller was suspended for an important league match when the record's will show that he wasn't in fact over the totting up limit after all?

     

    Are AFC likely to receive compensation for all losses incurred due to Gretna's ceasing of business?

     

    When the league splits, the bottom 6 (now 5) shall have 1 match less to play resulting in even more loss of revenue for the bottom sides, not to mention players of all sides losing out on bonuses etc, suppliers such as bakers, printers, security companies. How do the SPL propose to make up for that? Surely they can't allow the top 6 sides to profit while the bottom 6 (5) lose out?

     

    There are probably a load more questions to be asked and the SPL would be advised to be cautious with their decision on the matter or they could be faced with legal challenges from a number of clubs.

     

    :thumbsup:

     

    And followin on fae that, fit will the ESS-PEE-ELL do if Gretna go under efter this weekend and een o our players is either a) injured during this game, b) sent-off/booked as a result of this game?

     

    Whit aboot the fans?  Forkin oot for a game that might count for nuthin at the end.

     

    How dee they intend tae compensate?

     

    Complete fuckin farce

  3. So who are all these ST holders "demanding" a refund? I'm not, hadn't and wouldn't consider it.

     

    Dear fuck that EE really is an absolute dot to dot of a fucking paper.

     

    It diznae say that fans are demanding a refund, it just says that all eight thoosand season ticket holders could ask for a refund

  4. There are reports on Radio Scotland that Gretna could be out of business by tomorrow lunchtime.

    Apparently it'll cost them £30k to play us on Saturday - wages, transport, accomodation - and they simply can't raise that in time.

     

    Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere.

     

    Take it we'll just get the points?

     

    The hail situation is a fucking farce that's bin on the cards for a while. Ah think  the game will still go ahead but we'll be playing a depleted team o youngsters and loan players
