    It’s so cringeworthy. Not surprised they haven’t put their name to it.

    “Let’s not declare a winner because that would be unfair, but let’s just pay out prize money based on current standings” :56:

    They have an amazing level of balls, even if almost nothing they say stands up to logic or scrutiny.

    It’s also interesting that they’ve had to tone down the ‘null and void’ request due to financial issues. It loses any real weight when you basically want to scrap it but keep it as it is.

    There’s no asterisk next to any of the Huns titles won by literal cheating.

    This league, if it ends today, tomorrow or in September is ours and we won it under our own steam.

    If the huns were a point ahead of us, would you feel the same?

    Remember that we are only recording confirmed cases. Many African nations will lack the finances, infrastructure, and stability required to test people in large numbers.

    Bizarre hypothetical question, we are 13 points and 25 goals better off than the next best team with over 2/3 of the season played.

    If we were a point ahead then the argument changes completely.

    It would hurt pretty much all club's but can you imagine if they were to be granted their wish. Null and void. No prize money. Season tickets etc all to be paid back. Withholding money from the Leverkusen tie and telly money..

    They'd be utterly *..

    Good shout mate- teams like Falkirk, Morton, raith rovers, Dundee, Dundee Utd, Dunfermline all have far better crowds than Livingston n accies aswell as am aware grass pitches, while we’re rethinking things get those plastic pitches as far to * as possible

    I get where you're coming from and I would much prefer we actually finish the league season, but that's a different scenario. It would be a riddy if we were given the league whilst being one point ahead, but we're 13 ahead, 25+ GD and we would need to drop points in 4 out of 8 games with the huns winning all of their games.

    But that’s all it was. A question.

    Until it’s mathematically impossible I’m not 100% comfortable with us being given the title, because nobody really knows what could happen over the next 8 games. As far ahead as we are, 99/100 we win the league of course.

    For me, it cheapens it. I just don’t want to leave these * with any excuses and really bury them.

    I agree I want this to be finished in it's natural course. Us winning it over the next few game's ourselves (as that is exactly how it will/would go)..

    In terms of fairness, us being declared champions whilst romping towards the title with 8 game's to go, or declaring the league null and void? It has to be the former..

    Play the league to it's conclusion
    Award us winner's

    That's the only two ways I can see it going. There's no way they can just nulland void the league for a whole host of reasons..

    Easiest thing to do is:

    - Finalise the standings and award titles to 1st place.
    - No relegation as it would be unfair on Hearts.
    - Promote Dundee United as they deserve it.
    - Playoff between 2/3/4/5 to decide 14th team.

    - Do the same for League one, two and beyond.
