Originally from Perth and now in the wild wild West of Lothian via Dundee and Edinburgh. Looking at the game from neither the home or away perspective........
@The_Thirty_ Disagree when it is a 10 team league, if it was 14 then 2 automatic and a play off would be realistic.
As for disadvantages, the number of games played in league and playoffs is the same for 11th and 2nd. 3rd and 4th play 2 more, which is right for finishing in a lower place.
@AnalysingTSP Because the “English” football league operated its rules how they wished it to being things the first time a club was being punished for such an offence. The “Scottish” football league operated their rules as they’re written and had been operated previously.
@jamesblack1986 They couldn’t have as they had not submitted audited accounts. They held entry level until the audited accounts were submitted, which I believe was 2014.
If that was any other club (other than the other “Glasgow” lot) then we’d already have the @spfl deducting points and the game void. Absolute crap - add in the classless nonsense from @CelticFC players, staff and fans. There is no way they should get 3 stands at @StJohnstone
@scottmillar1@BarryAnderson_ It’s amazing how much stock the media put into the “KMI panel” both sides of the border. These panels are independent, have 1 match official on them and contain players, coaches (of low levels) or league secretaries (including from the lowland, EoS etc)
@Browning84Greg 4th place currently gets 2nd qualifying round of conference (3 rounds to group stage). Rangers currently conference 3rd (2 rounds). Pars win cup they get Europa 3rd (2 rounds)
If Celtic win cup then Rangers get Europa 3rd, 4th gets conference 3rd and 5th conference 2nd
@StJohnstone I’m sorry Fran but this has been a catastrophic couple of days for yourself and the owners as the positivity around the club has been wasted just like the double was in 2021.
Also seems a bit rich to think 40 or 50 fans is “many” given there has been 4K regularly this season.
@StAnalysis Fran is out there trying to justify the use of a strategy firm with no knowledge of the market . He’s not cut out for this type of role.
Figures are way off for what is quoted. Based on every east stand OF fan paying adult we need to play 6 times for £500k revenue (not profit)
@JimSpenceDundee Not if there’s too many season tickets holders for the one stand we would be getting for that game. I await to be proven wrong but season tickets numbers were higher than main stand capacity last season. Take out increased hospitality seats and it’s ridiculous
