    "They won't admit SS were right"

    Fair enough, so what tense is "They won't admit SS are right"

    If SS are now proved to be wrong does that mean the statement was actually in the past or is it still in the present?

    Present tense again.

    They "wouldn't" or "didn't" admit would be past tense. What comes after "admit" has no bearing on the tense of the sentence.

    Or future tense, it could be a prediction.

    I read it as more of a prediction to be honest, as the present 'won't' indicates somebody has tried to get them to admit and the conclusive evidence is that they're displaying a characteristic to suggest they refuse to admit.

    That's just me though, I'm almost certainly wrong about everything.
