If they want their second place money, they need to give us the title, and accept that the league's done. Because otherwise, if they think they can still win, they have to accept that they might also be overtaken by Aberdeen or Motherwell.

Wonder if Bazza will be expressing delight when the SPFL declares Celtic as champions.

Not sure why the premier league isn't being called with the rest when all 4 leagues had enough votes to carry

Isn’t it because UEFA have threatened to deny entry to European competitions for countries that declare their top leagues over? I dunno why UEFA can’t see football is not happening in any way to allow seasons to complete before next year starts.

I think it’s the UEFA thing. Or that’s my best guess.

I’m going to assume Dundee will be in next season’s expanded top flight, then.

I’m fine with 14 (7/7 split) then 10/10/10 with Kelty and Brora joining.

it's nothing to do with the UEFA thing, the clubs that voted against aren't happy with their current league position, either in relegation positions or not at the top of the table. it's as simple as that. this vote only gives the spfl the power to conclude the season. they're not actually going to formerly donor that top-flight until they get the go-ahead

donor should be "do that"

Genuinely had to Google this "ace" - turns out he's been in Scotland since last January and played 7 games.
Decent ilx name though - we've had our fair share of Matts and we seem to love a poll.

The Dutch have just chucked it, no promotion, no relegation and no champions, though tbf Ajax & AZ Alkmaar are only separated at the top by goal difference.

Ligue 1 wound up. Paris St. Germain awarded the title, 12 points ahead with 11 games to play. I don't think I need to remind anyone here that Celtic are 13 points ahead with 8 games to play.

rangers up to their usual nonsense

did they ever publish their smoking gun dossier or whatever it was?
Jags got stitched up, my da's fuming.

too boring for me to get into but SPFL have issued a rebuttal, seems like a huge damp squib, and while they need 75% to have their resolution go through they're unlikely to clear 10%.

As tournament denouements go, finding out we won 9iar via Twitter an hour after everyone else did is right up there with that time I watched us lose the League cup final to Raith on penalties via teletext updates.

Title party!

You got the 2007 winner via text from me. I think it went something like NAKA OMG
