Looking at the fixtures anyone notice that after an away game in Europe we always seem to be away on the Sunday too? Feyenoord away then Hibernian away now it's Bologna away and Hearts away! Happens all the time to Celtic.

We pumped both Feyeenord and Hibs with an elite manager in charge. Now we have an elite manager in charge again these away days will be toffee?.

Year after year the 'random fixture computer' seems to be programmed for that very purpose. Celtic to my knowledge have never questioned the very suspicious regularity, It's almost as if there is some sort of cheating or manipulation by our football association?

If it's not refs it's computers - thank god we are serial winners or the paranoia would be beyond belief.
{Ed007's Note - I've used, studied and worked with computers nearly all my life, when I done an HND in Computer Science over 30 years ago when we used DOS, before Windows or Chrome one of the first things I was taught even at high school was a term GIGO, Garbage In, Garbage Out... a computer can only ever do what you tell it to, if you're programming is wrong it won't work but if it's spot on it will work a treat.}

Does GIGO apply to our board Ed?
{Ed007's Note - It applies to everything in life when you think about it, Joe.}

I can get that but how can a computer know if we will qualify or fail for champions league for example and then have the Euro fixtures provide away games before our domestic away games.
It's far fetched for me.
{Ed007's Note - Well we already know the dates of European fixtures for the 2026/27 season
