I imagine we're all in total agreement that we DON'T want the season to be called by FIFA/ UEFA or SPFL. Hopefully this won't happen and we'll wipe the floor with the Sevs and stop them from yapping about tainted titles and asterisks. HH.
{Ed007's Note - Ideally the season would be played out but I can't see that happening now. UEFA will give leagues permission to end the season and then it's up to the individual leagues to decide how (sporting merit) and we've already had that vote.}

Ed007, how do we explain that to the unwashed Sevs? lol.
{Ed007's Note - I wouldn't waste any time even trying and besides, who cares what they think or say?}

There has been a lot of buck-passing by the Governing body, The Associations and The clubs and a uniformed solution will never be agreed as long as so many people are allowed an input or influence. Most of us agree that a completed season would be the best solution, but with lock-downs being extended and the First Minister saying today that social distancing will be a factor for the rest of 2020, it's very difficult to see a solution that pleases everyone, or indeed can be seen as 100% safe for EVERYONE.
We have never dealt with anything so serious and the little we do know is far outweighed by the if's, but's and God knows what?
The contracting and spreading of this virus is still too vague and risky with no cure in sight, so deciding titles and prize money at this time should be universal and decreed by these fat-cats that take so much out of the game but shirk the big decisions because they don't want a backlash from their super-rich elite top table.
Call an end to 2019/ 20 then plan and prepare for the new season.

That lot have a DUP MP wanting an investigation into Scottish Football. 9 in a row is hurting them and their only hope of null and void has gone.

Well said Ed. Who gives a monkeys what they say or think. The title is going to be ours no matter which way they decide to close the season.
{Ed007's Note - There's far too many Celtic fans so obsessed & infatuated with the going ons at Ibrox and that helps them stay relevant by continuing to hang off our coattails. Personally I have no real interest in anything anyone connected to TRIFC have to say or in interacting with any of them - I learnt the futility of doing that a long time ago.}

I think the way this virus is, next season will be under threat as well, I just don't see the point of paying people top money when there is no work for them to do, they should be all joining the government furlong scheme and the ones that don't want to, should be thanked for their service and let go, when ever the football starts again, let's just do it with the young team and what's left of the seniors.
