Apparently there is going to be a way to listen to this if you can believe that: email onlinehearingaccess@scotcourts.gov.uk for a login.
I’d doubt it. This is being fast tracked as it’s very time sensitive.I take it this will drag on for a few weeks before we get a verdict?
If that's the case they're phucked.I’d doubt it. This is being fast tracked as it’s very time sensitive.
Might be wrong but isn’t this initial hearing to find out if Hearts and Thistle can proceed to court or have to be sent back to the SFA for them to mediate?
If they have to go to the SFA to mediate, I think the clubs will want in interdict to stop the league starting.I’d doubt it. This is being fast tracked as it’s very time sensitive.

Hopefully this tears the SPFL apart and our only option is to apply to the leagues down South.Best of luck to both clubs.
Totally agree-we should all be watching with interest.Good luck to both clubs. No great love for them but would like to see them screw the corrupt organisation
Why is anyone still pushing this nonsense?Hopefully this tears the SPFL apart and our only option is to apply to the leagues down South.

Not whilst there is a viable option in this country. Hopefully the court case sorts this out.Why is anyone still pushing this nonsense?
It's never going to happen.
Being heard by a Glasgow RC can see this falling at the first.

I believe so mate.It was on here last week who was in sitting for it.is that true?

It’s a Lord Clark who is presiding.Google is your friend here.By christ most lords seems to be RC these days. For a minority, they seem to have a high statistically presence. Need to start a campaign and work out why most ministers, lords etc are from a minority religion. FFS Protestant lifes matter!

Apologies I thought I read it was Lord Matthew Clarke.Educated at holy cross in hamilton.It's Alistair Clark, Lord Clark QC, a judge of the Court of Session who is presiding.
Either way I still think this will fail.Apologies I thought I read it was Lord Matthew Clarke.Educated at holy cross in hamilton.
Bypass SFA and straight to CAS as there are people thay cross over on both boards..conflict of interestsEither way I still think this will fail.
Going to the SFA to mediate > Hopefully a judge would see the futility in asking the left hand what the right hand was doing.If they have to go to the SFA to mediate, I think the clubs will want in interdict to stop the league starting.

Fair point.That should be good have a crowd of idiots arguing SPFL/Hartz and sprinkle more idiots SFA =shitfest.
Yeh mate I'd love to get stuck in the championship for years to come, wouldn't you? You realise if we played in England we would never win another trophy, unless you see us beating man city etc?Not whilst there is a viable option in this country. Hopefully the court case sorts this out.
Hope we’re all listening along.
Let's not confuse arbitration with mediation. As I understand it, the SPFL will argue that the SPFL rules require that the issues between them and Hearts, Thistle etc. should go to binding arbitration and, in effect, that the Court of Session does not have jurisdiction to hear the matters in dispute. Hearts and Thistle on the other hand will no doubt argue that this isn't a dispute which falls within the arbitration provisions of the SPFL rules and therefore that the Court of Session does have jurisdiction to hear the matters in dispute. The main difference between arbitration and mediation is that in arbitration the arbitrator / arbiter hears evidence and makes a decision (i.e. arbitration is a substitute for a court). In mediation, the process is a voluntary negotiation with the assistance of a neutral third party. The parties do not reach a resolution unless all sides agree (which of course they are under zero obligation to do).Mediation only works if both parties agree to it and the mediator - Hearts would be daft to agree to the SFA. Perhaps the FA...

England neither wants or needs the Old Firm. A complete non starter.There is only one way Rangers or Sceptic will get into England to play and that is if SKY TV demand it of the FA, and even then I cannot see UEFA or FIFA allowing it, and SFA will never agree as it will be the end of them.
So if this got pushed back to the SFA could they honestly say that the SPFL is complete but the Scottish Cup isn't... Surely any decent lawyer and CAS would agree that is flawed. You either end both or end neither IMO
Which is the real reason for the shift in SFA President.From what I'm making this up as I need attention: the spfl argument is that hearts by the spfl articles have to go to the SFA before they can go to the courts. Seems like they are trying to use a technicality to get it threw out. Seems pointless because hearts will just apply for the interdict. We will then waste time as they go through the sfa procedure and end up back in the same place 1 month from now

Or the Government doing an enquiry into child abuse in Scotland but not covering the Catholic Church or Celtic. That is like going out to chop down trees without going into the woods.They have too, as the SFA board is near the SPFL board. Its like Celtic having board members on a child abuse case.
