Celtic set to match and beat Scottish consecutive trophy record

316

As you know, Celtic have won six consecutive trophies. This had been achieved three times before in Scottish football, by Celtic in 1905-09, Rangers in 1963-65 and again by Rangers in 1992-94.  On the latter occasion, Rangers established a new record of seven consecutive domestic trophies.

Win on Sunday and we match Rangers’ record from the (painful) 90s, but that would set up this season’s League title as a new record decider.

The 1909 Scottish Cup was withheld after crowd trouble after the Celtic-Rangers final reply ended in a draw.  Celtic missed out on making it seven trophies in a row when Dundee won the 1910 Scottish Cup five days before Celtic secured the league title.

Those dark days in the 90s were hard.  Celtic were an afterthought for most fo the country, a sporting irrelevance.  Sunday is a chance to exorcise those dark days.

  1. I’m fed up reading the Tory rubbish spouted by Macjay (and others?) – let’s please stick to the football !!!!

  2. The CO has laid 5 charges on Sevco – at last the penny has dropped.

     

     

    These are serious charges on Rangers FC :

     

     

    https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/scottish-fa/football-governance/disciplinary/disciplinary-updates/

     

     

    Charge 1 – criticising a referee.

     

     

    Charge 2 – bringing the game into disrepute.

     

     

    Charge 3 – using insulting words or behaviour.

     

     

    Charge 4 – lack of loyalty, integrity & sportsmanship, not to mention good faith.

     

     

    Charge 5 – breaking confidentiality rules.

     

     

    and there are pretty serious potential sanctions attached, according to the JPP.

  3. Under the Judicial Panel Protocol, the maximum penalty for breaking Rule 1 (referenced in Charge 4) is:

     

     

    £5,000,000 and/or ejection from the Scottish Cup and/or exclusion from the Scottish Cup and/or any player registration restrictions and/or suspension and/or termination of membership and/or any sanction or disposal not expressly provided above, provided that such other sanctions are sanctions listed in respect of other Rules or at Paragraph 11.5 of this Protocol.

     

     

    I think the minimum is a fine of £1000. Steve Clarke was fined £1000 – suspended – for his recent , single transgression.

     

     

    The JPP can be downloaded from my recent link above.

  4. Cant see Salzburg taking it easy tonight.They still need a point to qualify.They wont want to come to Celtic Park needing a win,with Leipzig playing Rosenborg.

     

    Once again Brendan coming out with nonsense.In the week the scum called our players “Thugs”and their Board wallowed in it,he hopes they will qualify.Apart from Joe Fillipi,I dont know another Celtic fan who would agree.

     

    Big darts night tonight,so with theb3 hour difference,I will ignore ourbresult,get in,watch the Hunsbgame,then watch oursbon CTV video replay.That should take mebto around 3.30 in the morning.
