Jackson is a desperate cvnt. That is all!
100% would be the endI genuinely believe it would be the end of Scottish football as we know it if that happened.
Neil Doncaster has refused to rule out declaring the season ‘null and void’ if coronavirus restrictions grind the Scottish game back to a halt.
The SPFL chief executive dropped the bombshell admission during an exclusive Q&A with Record Sport as he fronted up the mayhem that’s been caused by Celtic’s controversial winter trip to Dubai.
Doncaster dismissed calls to scratch last season from the record books without awarding titles and promotion as ‘never a realistic possibility’.
The campaign ended in chaos with Celtic crowned top flight champions and Hearts being relegated despite the campaign being curtailed by the coronavirus crisis.
Now, with Rangers sitting 21 points clear at the top of the table and on the verge of claiming a first title in 10 years, Doncaster has refused to rule out the null and void option.
He said: “No one has a crystal ball but certainly if we carry on as we are then we’ve got a very good chance of completing the Premiership and Championship seasons.
"If the games can’t be completed and we end up where we were in March 2020 then clearly it’s going to be a very difficult situation.
“You’ve got to bear in mind over 75 per cent of games had been played in all four divisions of the SPFL when the season was curtailed.
"We certainly hope we will complete 100 per cent of the fixtures in all four divisions this season. It will be for the members to determine what happens in the event they are not.
“In the event the games couldn’t be played, then once again the members might have a decision to make.
“I’ve never ruled out anything. It’s up to the members to rule things in or out.
"We are a members organisation and the members want to retain the power to decide whether the season should be curtailed or not rather than give it to the board.
“The consequences of a void season are much more dramatic, partly because of the commercial contracts which underpin the game but at the moment there is no reason to believe the Premiership and Championship won’t be completed.”
The important bit:

Well.. Mentioning 75% was wrongIt’s a nothing story to be honest, Doncaster for once says little wrong.
It would lead to a complete company shut down and the removal of all employees including dungcasterSPFL can't afford null and void
Only the mentally challengeds would vote for it and even then I’m not sure they would
Nil and void means no sky tv money which pretty much every club relies on especially this season
Click bait pish
Plague FC can't even afford to pay their youth players without taxpayers' cash at the moment, they'll need that Sky money more than anyone. Those trips to Dubai don't come cheap after all.Only the mentally challengeds would vote for it and even then I’m not sure they would

It’s not a actual rule but it’s where we were last year so it’s a legal precedent that once we reach 75% a court would likely overturn any attempt at null and void.I see he mentions this 75% games completed, is this an actual rule or what ?
The dismissal of stuff like this makes me think people haven’t been watching.There’s people who still think we should just discard these tidbits, but honestly I won’t be shocked if they attempt something like this. They are immoral, corrupt, sleekit bastards.
Doncaster’s silence over the last week alone says much ironically. Grade A prick.

I f*cking hate Doncaster but I suspect that would be down to Jackson, another cretin.You know this could have been the first thing that ND said, but there it is at the bottom of the article, the last paragraph, the beggars will have blown their load well before they seen it.

they will go for null and void as this new strain takes hold just wait and see.

Hilarious though that he says
“You’ve got to bear in mind over 75 per cent of games had been played in all four divisions of the SPFL when the season was curtailed."
Now we know why Divs 1 & 2 have been halted.
Well.. Mentioning 75% was wrong
I suppose, but the article was about Null and Void, there is little to no chance of that happening.Well.. Mentioning 75% was wrong
If and a big if that happened I would want Rangers to go nuclear.
Very few employees seem to be catching it.
There is no reason to at all end it apart from Sellik are getting their arses handed to them and it’s pyoor no fair.
The covid noise this week has been created by the team with the most to lose.
If repeated often enough it becomes a factI see he mentions this 75% games completed, is this an actual rule or what ?
Read the article not the headlineCant be done and shouldnt be discussed on here, apparently.
I agree, that jumped out at me.“You’ve got to bear in mind over 75 per cent of games had been played in all four divisions of the SPFL when the season was curtaile”
This bit above is the only concerning bit for me. That’s the card they are going play if it was called anytime soon.
Interviews with his 2 SPFL PR monkeys in Jackson and Grieve. No doubt the 3rd one Stephen McGowan will have a piece as well.Jackson lieing
Same words different article here
Doncaster says it would have been madness for SPFL to let Hibs cancel Celtic game
NEIL DONCASTER says it would have been madness for the SPFL to let Hibs postpone their clash with Celtic over their Covid fears. Jack Ross’ squad were concerned about facing the Hoops after Christo…www.thescottishsun.co.uk
75 % of games in all four divisions won't be completed this season. In fact, there is justification for handing us the title right now.
