Declare the 9

873

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.

    Sorry to interrupt quiz, Marc.

     

    According to BBC, no quadruple treble.

     

    Celtic to be crowned Scottish champions

     

    A bit more detail now on the Celtic story, as the Scottish football season is expected to be officially brought to an end on Monday, BBC Radio 5 Live understands.

     

     

    The Scottish Professional Football League will announce that the Premiership season – and the Scottish Cup – will not be completed, which means Celtic will be awarded their ninth consecutive title. The Hoops were 13 points ahead of Glasgow rivals Rangers with eight games remaining.

     

     

    Hearts will be relegated, while Rangers, Motherwell and Aberdeen will gain qualification for the Europa League. Dundee United will be promoted to the Scottish Premiership next season.

     

     

    The lower-league seasons were declared over in April after a controversial ballot.

  11. Will any of the SPFL clubs have the courage to call out Sevco if they get a Europa pass ??

  12. The Token Tim on

  13. I don’t think that the defeated cup finalist gets a European spot any more. But I thought that the winner did. So wouldn’t hearts and Hibs (is it Hibs?) have something to say about the European spots?

  14. blantyretim is praying for the Knox family on

    Did we win league cup v St Johnstone and Hibs in 69 due to Hampdump not being able to hold final in 68 ?

    Can you recount all the books of the Old Testament please for me mate :-)

  19. Jimmynotpaul on

    Bada.

     

    Yes, Roddy.

     

    The weird thing is I picked the story up on the BBC UK. Live Rolling News.

     

    I thought that was unusual.

     

    Any way, as you say, if it’s Roddy, it must be true. :-)

    Just read Phil’s latest questions re: whether the accounts meet audit standards as required by UEFA. Too tired to dig back just now, but recall prior discussion re: this requirement.
