Waiting on Dundee's vote by all accounts to see if Scottish leagues end.

And Servco, unsurprisingly, don't want the league decided yet but want the prize money handed out now. 

You couldn't make it up.

If it comes to pass to end the season now, it would be tough on Patrick Thistle who have a game in hand to avoid relegation.

As far as I can see it would be average points to decide positions so Thistle would be safe.

The maths is beyond my 1D vision, however the Scotsman calculates that Thistle would be relegated.

'Thistle, who would be relegated on 0.037 of a point under the proposals in lying two points off Queen of the South with a game in hand.'

Yes, I calculated wrong!
It appears that reconstruction for a season may be a solution. 14 team leagues a possibility but this is then unfair to teams in play off positions.

The scottish clubs vote has been concluded with Dundee doing a lisbon treaty vote.
UEFA have blessed it,  and Celtic wil be announced as the champions.
Meanwhile Rangers cruelly denied their one in 10 million chance of overhauling Celtic, continue with their smoke and mirrors objections.

As Chris Sutton was inspired to write,
"Democratic vote...overwhelming result...frustration must really be the wheels came off after the winter break. But blame everyone and everything else."

Sutton loves to wind people up.  Made a great career in the media.

Yes, he likes to wind people up but that quote is not a wind up. It is exactly what no other twat in the media will say when it needs to be said.

If and when it ever happens (hope they go burst and it never happens) will Sevco have one title to their name or will it be added to the old clubs 44 titles

Yes

It'll still count as a title regardless.  In 50 years, nobody will care, Celtic will have it to their name.

I see there could be a bigger league next season to keep Hearts etc. happy - a bit of compromise in a way.  That'll keep everybody happy.

The way I see it though is that Scotland have too many clubs, whether part-time or full-time.  Surely 20 clubs with be enough in a country that size.  Join 3 local clubs together (harder said than done) but there may be a few less clubs when all this settles down regardless!!

Rangers have a shared title with Dumbarton, that they count as a full title!

And Dumbarton had a better goal difference. They have another title which they count when they were also joint top and also had a worse goal difference. Goal difference wasn't use at that time to differentiate between teams level on points. Celtic will be fully deserving winners this year if it's not completed.
