gpl predictions (image) GPL declared Null and Void

Wait ‘til BearGer makes a rousing speech. -
His first game against celtic at Ibrox when he lashed in a rocket of a screaming pile-driver smashing half of the defence on the way sort of posted a notice of what was to come.

The entire Faculty of Advocates will be watching this. -
Parkhead wasn’t the worst. Broomfield was half decent. Pittodrie had nothing to commend it. Tannadice was all right but better before they built the Fox stand. Emerging from Tynecastle through the Wheatfield tunnel was a nervy affair when your feet lost touch with the ground.

I know the stadia of other clubs are either ramshackle tumbledowns or rancid cesspits but I used to enjoy the old Easter Road especially the top tier of the terracing opposite the stand. Anyone else with a less than grudging word about opposition parks?

Refereeing decisions in games with no fans

Was it not the COPFS rather than the cops? I think the Lord Advocate and the Justice Mis-manager are in at nights and the weekends raking through everything to find the stuff. -
The Winter 2019/20 Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

Not a very exciting pedigree. The Stuttgart academy and downhill thereafter. At least we know Dykes can hoof the ball i to the celtic net. -
I don’t know what areas of law Mr Deans practises in nor at what level but there was a time when Hearts could have had some friendly advice from a couple of High Court judges and a Sheriff-Principal. The Kelty Hearts are apparently ready to have a go. Just needs Buchanhaven to join up for a trio.

Just the two stars, then? -
According to Follow Follow this is a letter from Leslie Deans to Mrs Budge. In my opinion, There are a minimum of 3 grounds which would entitle Hearts, Partick Thistle, Stranraer and perhaps Rangers, to institute civil court proceedings against SPFL and the clubs who voted to expel the first 3 clubs.Firstly, the clubs formed a common purpose. In the case of the premiership , that was to play 38 games against each other with club 12 to be relegated after these games were played. A common purpose creates a duty of care to each other. The actions of certain other members breach that duty. Additionally the SPFL must act in the best interest of all member clubs and I believe they have failed to do so. Their actions and conduct are set out in the dossier prepared by Rangers. The excuse given for abandoning the current campaign is that they want to start a new campaign, excluding Hearts from the Premiership. The chairman of SPFL has stated he hopes this can happen by July. By committing to a new campaign with a different membership , before the existing campaign is complete , a breach of duty occurs.Secondly, there was material non disclosure by SPFL in their briefing pack to clubs on April 8. As I understand it, no reference was made to the potential rebate claim by broadcasters if the league was called early. Additionally no other options than early termination were presented to clubs who were told this was the only feasible option. It was not. By their actions and omissions SPFL did not act in the best interest of all clubs.Thirdly, the SPFL motion was not passed. Dundee FC were not legally entitled to change their vote after it was cast. The motion failed and no further motion has been put to the clubs. SPFL are acting illegally.The pursuers only need to convince the court on any one of these 3 grounds to win the case.If so, the following remedies should be sought1- Interdict against SPFL starting a new campaign until the current one is finished, whenever that might be.2- damages for actual and potential financial loss stemming from their expulsion.3- the expenses of litigation.Yours FaithfullyLeslie Deans” Interesting. I wonder if “common purpose” applies and if so whether it’s overcome by impossibility of performance? Has “non disclosure” been tacitly approved by the rejection of the Rangers application for an independent enquiry? Do I remember rightly that the Dundee vote change was ok under company law? If I knew the answers to these questions I wouldn’t be asking them but Junior Counsel has advised that Rangers have a good chance of succeeding in a Court action. I read that as 60/40 at best. Too big a risk.

How about the Freiburg Masons?

My knowledge of German football is shallow. From what I know, here is my prediction: St Pauli kaput. Sorry, can’t add more.

Better than that, I remember when celtic weren’t even flower girls. Hibs, Hearts and Dundee were the competition. Even East Fife Were better than them for a season. However, that detracts from Bill’s absolutely valid assessment. There is a big improvement in the club’s corporate governance. Much more is to be done. It needs aggression underpinned by wiliness. Who will be our Fergus McCann? I don’t mind if whoever it is takes a profit. He’ll deserve it.

SPFL Season declaration challenged legally (ongoing discussion)

A very well crafted statement. Not a word out of place. Suitably gracious but do I detect a note of menace? The difference between this and the stuff Traynor used to churn out is as day from night. -

The Caley are playing a blinder here. That’s the third time in as many days that I’ve said something similar. Astonishing. -
Do you need 75% support for that or are you just going to do it anyway?

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.

Hmmm. That sounds like 60/40 at best. I prefer m’learned friends to tell me the Court will almost certainly make an order. -
