Sheep Statement - an insight into the “corporate governance” into the corrupt SPFL

Whilst it begs the question “why did you vote it through despite all these reservations?”

It is abundantly clear that they have been threatened with the prospect of clubs going to the wall. Literally told you need to accept to trigger the pay out that they need.

No compromises. No pragmatism. No rule changes or amendment. Ridiculous.

Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack says the club voted for the SPFL resolution to end the Championship, League One and League Two, and potentially the Premiership, early to help lower league outfits financially.

The Dons, who had earlier indicated a reluctance to get behind the idea, backed a plan to decide the lower leagues on a points per game basis, which would come into play for the top-flight if games can’t be completed due to Covid-19.

It is understood, although the motion has the required votes in the Premiership, League One and League Two, one club in the Championship has yet to cast their deciding ballot.

Reds chief Cormack, who was critical of the time club’s had to consider their options, said: “Having received assurances that the SPFL will consult with all 12 premier league clubs before making a decision on the current season, Aberdeen Football Club, voted for the resolution.

“Crucially, this means that the lower league clubs can get the cash they urgently need, while a premature decision on the Ladbrokes Premiership can be avoided.

“We feel strongly that the SPFL board should not have asked member clubs to cast a vote on this resolution with less than 48 hours’ notice, especially when these resolutions allow for 28 days.

“This request was made during a one-hour video conference with no room for constructive discussion or debate, leaving us scrambling for time to review the resolution legal document and then discuss the merits of it with our board.

“Open and transparent governance and communication is critical to the survival of Scottish Football and should include our most important assets, our fans. We ignore the fans at our peril.

“While we, like most clubs, want a stake in the ground for the 2020/21 season, we would prefer to see the league completed if at all possible.

“We recognise that this will be challenging, perhaps even unlikely, but there are a number of key issues that need robust debate.

“For example, UEFA’s clarification on the competitions’ framework and calendar, the current position of our broadcasters and main sponsors, and what if we have to play games behind closed doors and there’s no cross-border travel in Europe for the foreseeable future?”

Hot air. They kacked it and jumped straight into bed with Liewell. As should be no shocker. Anything they say now is just weasel words. Hopefully they go bust. Bye now.

And that is the sad part.
When it comes to the crunch, it’s whatever septic want.
What they don’t see to get though is that Septic only want what’s best for septic, or worse for Rangers, I suppose you have to mention.
If that means they need to shaft Aberdeen, Hibs, Hearts or anybody else to get their own way, it’s nae luck sheep.
 
Christ, we have some on here that slag off statements made by our own club. I wonder what they’ll make of that.

“After all our reservations, a magical brown envelope appeared on our doorstep and we took it as a divine signal to change our minds pronto”.
 
A list of issues with it as long as your arm. Waxing lyrical about what the SPFL should do

But despite having nothing positive to say about the proposal they still vote it through. The country is a toilet
 
Whats he talking about. The important thing is the scum get the title. Is he thick?
 
Get your story straight Dave. Either you had 48 hours or 28 days? Which is it? Why did you feel compelled to vote within 48 hours? The survival of lower league clubs?

Duplicitous bassa.
 
I am firmly in the let us get out of here camp, we are never going to be allowed, to win anything legit again, we need to hang on in here until the virus goes and see were we are, for me the lower divs, in England offer a better future for us than anything going forward were we are, the lies the corruption in this our home, speaks for itself, because of my own health problems I don't know if I will ever get back to Ibrox, but I still urge our Board and fans to seek a way out of this cesspit.
 
So they voted for a resolution that clearly states that the Premiership will, if they can't conclude all outstanding games, be decided on exactly the same points per game basis as the lower leagues on the basis that they were given "assurances that the SPFL will consult with all 12 premier league clubs before making a decision".
Surely the only "consultation" that would be left is the timing of when they call it off.
The question is - what have they been promised because they have just voted to write off a potential cheque for finishing 3rd.

It reminds me of that Rod Petrie video on another thread talking about a prominent club asking him not to extend the season in 2008. According to him he refused as he was against it, but the league never did get extended. What the scum want, the scum get.
 
Yet again these cnuts think it’s more advantageous to be seen in the eyes of their fans to be thumbing their noses at us, as opposed to doing the right thing. If they can side with what they proclaim to be ‘the lesser of two evils’ to get up our nose even more, all the better.

I wouldn’t relieve myself on them if they were engulfed in flames.
 
Yes that few hundred quid the lower league team get will make all the difference to them. What a selfless hero to put them before his own business
 
Were all the CEOs mislead by the false deadline imposed by the spfl?

It appears he was oblivious to it:


"Reds chief Cormack, who was critical of the time club’s had to consider their options."
 
Or back our resolution, then complete the season If possible finish 3rd (which they would imo) and earn more money, get a later start in Europa and earn more money. Or null and void, start the season again, again start in Europe later and earn more cash... everything to gain except hating Rangers isn't included in those options

Utter load of pish. The lower league teams can be paid out if season null and void. In fact if he is so worried about them then why not split all money equally.
