It looks like it could be Monday before Celtic are Champions.
The SPFL rules state that the board must make the decision official and the board don’t meet until Monday.
Good things happen to people who wait. 🍀.

If it's safe for the Premier league to start back in June then there is no reason why the SPFL can't.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - You do know that the Scottish, Welsh and even NI governments are giving the opposite advice to the Westminster government don't you?
The decisions being taken in England are for England and England only.}

15 May 2020 16:39:40
Lol, of course mate👍.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - The SPFL need to do what the Scottish government tells them.}

15 May 2020 16:40:11
The point is it isn’t safe to start back. Thank God for devolution and here’s to independence.

I know the decision lies with the Scottish government and the SPFL will have to do as their told. I just don't think we should be in a rush to call the league. Wait until at least the next review of the lockdown.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - When's that due because UEFA have a 25th of May deadline for leagues to outline their plans going forward?}

Also reports today suggesting Sky would not have tolerated this season finishing beyond August 1st.
The date the new bumper 5 year Sky deal starts.
Basically the SPFL’s hands were tied.

If Boris and his uncle Donald say it’s safe I suppose it must be Ed? As long as ye ‘stay alert’ and watch oot fur the wee virus coming.

I'm off work on Monday so that would suit me fine. Hopefully Broony will walk onto the centre of the pitch at Paradise and raise the trophy to the cameras. HH.

Agree0 Disagree0

We have already outlined our plans. We voted for the league to be called as is if the season can't be finished. Surely we have told UEFA that the same as the Premier League have told them they intend to finish their season?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - No, we've told UEFA we will follow what the Scottish government tells us, the EPL is nothing to do with Scotland or the SPFL.}

there will be no difference on social distancing when the new season is to be started than there will be at the end of this month.

Agree0 Disagree0

16 May 2020 10:52:11
Is that not why we haven't called the Premiership yet?

Agree0 Disagree0

16 May 2020 11:15:28
It definitely looks like it will be called on Monday but like I say the same social distancing rules don't look like they will change for a long period of time so the plans that will be made for the new season to be started could be put in place for this season to end in my opinion.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed007, there's a wee bonus in the current circumstance for you to look forward to. Talk is already starting to turn to transfer stories and it's going to go on until September.
We all know you love a good transfer window! lol HH.

{Ed007's Note - I can't wait 😂😂

15 May 2020 14:09:02
Ed, can you see a fair bit of comings and goings in the squad? Or do you think it'll be the usual 16-19 development projects and a few freebies?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I think it's too early to call while everything in football is so up in the air.}

15 May 2020 21:17:15
Transfer fees will be way lower I would guess. Fantasy Valuations from the Rangers will still have the columbian worth tens of millions. In reality they will get about 5million tops.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pud,
Players that they have only come along once in a lifetime so sevco will not be concerned as the trillions will be pouring in.

I think the time of the big money transfers and the huge obscene footballers wages are over, give the footballers wages to the nurses and carers and give the nurses and carers wages to the footballers, that would put an end to the burglars breaking in to footballers houses trying to steal their £300 thousand pound watches.

Today is the 12th year Anniversary since we lost Mr. Celtic. Tommy Burns.
It would be a fitting tribute to the great man if Celtic win 9 In A Row today.
He Twists and Turns, God Bless Tommy Burns🙏.

Buzz, Tommy was and remains the epitome of everything that Celtic stands for. Frankie Boyle was spot on when he said it will be great to be awarded the 9 in a row title when the Sevs are exploding with even more bitterness than normal. lol HH.

Agree1 Disagree0

15 May 2020 10:14:37
It would be great as you said Buzz but I have seen a report stating that Sevco are looking at legal routes to stop SPFL naming Celtic Champions today.

Tommy Burns is a legend both on and off the park. I had an uncle who died of leukaemia 2 years before I was born. Tommy would go up to Yorkhill hospital every week to see him and all the other sick kids. He didn't need to do this but made sure he took time to go visit. Meant a lot to my grandparents and all the parents of children in hospital.

Funnily enough I just watched a repeat of the 'Demolition Derby' and at the final whistle the camera went to the technical area where Tommy was standing looking very emotional with dignified delight. While the fourth official (a certain Hugh Dallas) looked like he had just shat a porcupine ha ha. There will never be another like TB.

It wouldn’t surprise us Tony.
