I'm calling for @Rousseau to be suspended pending an inquiry. I've received threats from @Bill, @Frankie and @Gonzo79 but I will not surrender.

Michael Stewart has Tweeted that Franc Ergs is correct to raise this matter. A few minutes later, he Tweeted that it's all Franc Ergs' fault if Compo gets relegated. According to sources in Coatbridge, Roger Mitchell says, "They're all Orange b*******!" and Phil McMadeupname is planning to write a book about the dark, Masonic forces towering over Gersnet.

Let me ask Peter...

From the Partick statement ... ... 2012 it might have read: ... and: Ahem, no. But back then, the same cabal was in office and has been pulling the strings throughout. As lowlanders you probably wear no kilt, but that shouldn't have stopped you to grow some balls some time ago ...

..how exactly will it be decided? My suggestion is that we get a board together @Rousseau to discuss ways in how to end it, then maybe have some sort of voting system for all members ?. What can go wrong there ? Ok it's just something i've put together at short notice, but i do expect all concerned to comply, so that we can have some sort of a decision by tomorrow. Thoughts?

It is already written. ie the letter to UEFA declaring the league called was sent six days before the taken vote. There is no alternative and Bearger has a post season tour of Japan to plan.

I was called by @Rousseau & told my vote didn’t matter Turns out he wrote to @Frankie last week & told him we all wanted it concluded anyway

@Rousseau i'm afraid due to a technical issue with the database today, your PM to gaffer may have got lost

@BEARGER currently top of the league has yet to release a statement . I'll not hold my breath.

Very much enjoyed this thread...

Any club that voted YES in the SPFL proposal and who is subsequently bleating about the lack of reconstruction can just GTF!!! If they really thought that was going to happen then they're as unfit to run their clubs as the executives are at the SPFL. This is an utter shambles. Despite this, Rangers is under attack from the usual morons in the media. Some of what they're writing is beyond belief to anyone outside of Scotland. These guys are to blame for the state of our game, just as much as ND, RM and MM. Time and time again they fail to play their role in presenting facts or even a rational opinion.

Well, they saw a garden path as well lit and broad as the Sunset Boulevard, saw it plated with gold and pound notes in fat bags hanging at the end of it ... fully (and consciously) oblivious to the red herring the size of a whale beneath. If it was the first time, you might feel somewhat sorry. But dear me, this gang has been nose-led by the Yahoos and their marionettes for a couple of decades and stumbled - in good Scottish tradition - from one trap into the next, falling to nigh any charade dangled in front of them. If they can't see it now, I would suggest that for this generation of them all hope is lost.

That position is just, well....heartless

In a GersNet post of 9 May, @Gaffer made a very serious allegation. This allegation has been entirely unsupported by any evidence, either then or since. If anyone has any alleged evidence of wrongdoing, they must bring it forward. The allegation was so serious and defamatory that the GersNet Prediction League’s Legal Counsel (Peter) immediately sent Gonzo, Bill and Frankie who sought a commitment from Gaffer that it would not be repeated. This was a wholly appropriate and proportionate legal response to an entirely unfounded and damaging allegation. That was the only respect in which Gaffer was called upon not to repeat what had been alleged and what had been threatened. On no conceivable basis could this be considered as ‘threat’. It is noteworthy that there is not a shred of evidence in the so-called post to support the allegation made or to justify the threat.

I'm going to vote no. Then change it to yes. Can't wait to play out some pre-season friendly predictions with the big hitters.

What's the point in that ? , when we can overcomplicate things.

Can someone tell failed politician, mediocre footballer and nationalist nitwit, Michael Stewart, that it should be "I can't get past the feeling...".

Douglas Park - Rangers will pay for independent investigation..... and our fight will not end if we don't get sufficient support at the EGM Interesting read https://mobile.twitter.com/i/web/status/1259237570128613376

Dundee UTD you say? Technically not a Premier League club yet? So in summary Dundee voted no and scuppered the resolution. Somehow their vote got lost. They were then contacted by SPFL (and others) and they changed their vote to approve the resolution (with promises). They effectively promoted their rivals as Champions, now those same rivals have just scuppered reconstruction. Penny for your thoughts Mr Nelms? I hope those loan players and big hitting friendlies (behind closed doors) don't go the same way......

I voted but my vote got lost in the post - can I now change my mind and you can promise that I'll finish in the top 3 even though there was no chance of that happening

I don't think the majority will budge when it comes to reconstruction.

I am speculating wildly, here, because I have no knowledge of the contracts with SKY, BT, etc, but if they contain a force majeure clause allowing for termination in particular extreme circumstances, as I imagine they would, then it is interesting that SPFLLtd has not even mentioned this possibility. (Nor has anybody else, to be fair.) I think that force majeure might apply were the Government to order and/or enforce abandonment of the season as it stands. Such an eventuality might allow SPFLLtd to end its contracts with the broadcasters with no, or little, financial damage. The abandonment of the season under government diktat would presumably have the equivalent effect of clubs agreeing to a null and void outcome.This would affect award of titles, relegations, promotions, and might have an impact on invitation to participate in UEFA Competitions. Surely it would be far better to wait for completion of the season to be forbiden than to risk £10M+ in claims from SKY, BT,etc. by determining it now? Or are the contracts so slanted in favour of the TV Companies that even outbreak of hostilities would not provide a get out? Or is it worth £10M+ of shareholders monies to satisfy the demands on just one club? I haven't even thought about insurances, to cover delay, disruption, or termination due plague, pestilence, civil commotion, combination of workmen, or others , acts of terror, or other examples of force majeure.

Another great interview, keeping the pressure on.

Presently on border duty

I’m not in the GNPL but myself and my nephew in Fife are top of our respective diddy prediction leagues. If this means we cannot now join GNPL we’ll issue a joint statement after taking advice on board.

Check your PMs.

It is unbelievable that there are those who cannot see that there was collusion between the SPFL and the yahoos to hand them the title by calling the leagues early & threatening clubs if they didn’t agree they wouldn’t get their payments. That was the plot all along but there was a couple of problems. The first problem was getting the clubs to agree so a farcical vote was held with clubs being blackmailed & the doomed offer of league reconstruction was aired. Eventually the vote carried under circumstances Robert Mugabe would have been proud of. And leagues reconstruction is now a dead duck. Quelle surprise. The second problem was the SPFL didn’t have the money to pay out the clubs. And they had a £10m potential liability to SKY so (to get the TV money for the remainder of the season to pay clubs) they offered SKY sponsorship rights to the SPFL for the next few seasons although SKY wouldn’t pay a penny. Commercial stupidity. Even daft clubs like Raith Rovers wouldn’t vote for that & the SPFL knew it so they tried to keep it secret But a whistleblower told big bad Rangers and they spotted the plot right away. So simple to follow. The positions of Doncaster & MacKenzie are untenable .

The S.P.F.L. is a complete disgrace.

Null & void ?

It's hard to keep up Ian ? In Michael Stewart's world regarding reconstruction and relegation Blame : a club that wanted to null and void the season meaning no relegation. Don't Blame : circa the other 80% of clubs who voted to call the season and relegate clubs.

This whole situation is like squeezing a big spot and watching the pus oozing out, with people like Stewart, Spiers and Mitchell being the pus.

Anyone else apart from Bayern

Kamara is a far better player than some of our support give him credit for. He must not be sold on the cheap
