Proposals affecting Rangers and the other SPFL clubs are being “squashed” by a “handful of people” allowing “self-interest” to drive the decision-making process which would see Celtic crowned Scottish Premiership champions after only 30 games. The league body are understood to prefer declaring the season over and enforcing the current positions, a stance described as…
They should be totally isolating the 2 issue’s of a cash crisis and how the league should be ended, these should not be allowed to muddy the waters when making decisions.
As for the league, the rules and regulations are quite clear and should be adhered to.
The Premiership.
C14…The clubs for the time being entitled in terms of these rules to participate in the premiership, shall disregarding any abandoned or postponed matches, play in 38 league games in any one season.
In Hearts situation.
Rules and regulations.
C17.
At the end of each season (following COMPLETION of ALL(38) league matches in the premiership in that season) the club in position 12 in the premiership shall be relegated.
The authorities cannot change the rules of the competition just to please Celtic, lets be clear they have not won the Premiership, Celtic are 13 pts in front but Rangers can win 27 pts.
The rules of the competion are agreed to at the beginning of the competition and the integrity of the game should not be compromised to please a few that have not won anything
