tlg1903 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 With the demise of the hun i think its about time we started to discuss changes to the way the spl is run. I'm surprised there has not been a move by the 11 to change the voting structure already and its starting to worry me a bit.

Tyrant Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 What happened to the recent plans to change it? Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/4355-changing-the-rules/#findComment-137920
manc_don Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 My concern is that now the season has started, the momentum will be lost and the issue will be swiftly swept under the carpet. I hope i'm just being overly cynical, but i feel that we won't see much if anything until next season as they will claim to be "reviewing" everything this season.

Tbh I'm not sure this is even cynical enough to match my thoughts. The powers that be wanted things very differently than the way this season has begun. I fully expect future developments (after the period of 'review' to make sure people are less motivated to speak up) to involve stealing back every inch of ground that the fans have gained.

bloo_toon_red Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I fully expect league reconstruction, commencing 2013, entry by invitation, with two divisions. Whatever is done won't be radical enough until a new Americanized structure that pays no respect to "tradition" is put in place, and no-one in the governing bodies has the balls to be that radical.

Madbadteacher Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'd agree with that re the structure btr, unloikely the majority of fans would like it either as it would affect their clubs significantly Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/4355-changing-the-rules/#findComment-138008
jmo Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I might be wrong on this, but haven't Kilmarnock come out and said they would vote with Celtic to prevent any move to alter the voting structure of the SPL for some reason?

Hopefully their prick of a chairman won't get that opportunity. I see on BBC gossip that the fans are trying oust him.
