I remember 1997 when another nine-in-a-row was about to be won. We knew it was coming, we knew it would be difficult and we needed to get through the period. I avoided all news coverage and football chat for over 24 hours that May, only to find out later that Motherwell’s Owen Coyle upset plans and the title had yet to be won. I just wanted it over with, the delay was not helpful.
We are in the same situation now, there is not the remotest doubt the Premiership will be called and Celtic will be declared champions. No one’s interest is served by further postponing the inevitable; it would only leave the SPFL in the spotlight longer than necessary.
Only box ticking exercises remain and today’s meeting between Premiership clubs and the SPFL should be the last. Scottish football has more important things to worry about, it is in significant peril and needs to move energies on immediately. Declare the 9.

Re the Gorbals cross photo, I have a photo taken at the cross( don’t know how to send them ) with my mates prior to a game v Dunfermline Ath. 1966 and the pubs in photo Doyle’s and McKellars.We went to the game in the double decker bus from Benny’s.
Almost certain Billy Turnbull organised the bus from Benny’s.
God bless Helen
May she rest in peace
Stay strong Chris
A bit late but with no less feeling, I raise my glass to the Lovely Helen and the Admirable Chris.

I watched the Dortmund game and really enjoyed. To hear the thud of the ball and the players shouting was real grass roots stuff.
The players experienced that non-atmosphere every day at training. Granted the crowd must give them an extra boost.
I’ll tell you what I didn’t miss. Drum. LOUD drums. They do my head in. And tuneless repetitive chants, mainly from English crowds.
Now if only the commentary team would keep quiet. No need to witter on. Players names and insight into the play is enough. Don’t need to know the player’s favourite chip shop.
