Hearts, Partick Thistle and Stranraer WILL be relegated after talks over league reconstruction broke down this afternoon, failing to garner enough support to take it forward.
This means we now know the Jambos will be heading down to the Championship if the league is called.

One chairman outwith the top flight fuming at a call he’s just had; sounds like today’s Premiership meeting has ruled out 14-14-16, 14-14-14 or any kind of any league reconstruction. Looks like next season, whenever it starts, will be 12-10-10-10 as per with @JamTarts relegated

All that’s left to do to tie up this season is now to crown Celtic champions of Scotland for the ninth season running.
There was hope that a committee headed up by Ann Budge would pave the way for a larger league to facilitate clubs staying in the league during this tumultuous time. However, good will evaporated for any plans to go ahead and there are far too many against the proposed changes.
Celtic have been silent throughout this whole process as they wait to find out the fate of their title having won a thirteen point gap on the pitch before the shut down.
