We received clarity from Uefa on some important issues yesterday and not on others. Access to the Champions and Europa Leagues next season will be granted only on sporting merit. This finally nailed hopes of the Null and Void Loyal. If a league was declared void, its standings and results would not hold, so no sporting merit could be determined.
If Newco want access to the Europa League qualifiers, they need the SPFL to award a winner and second place, despite their protests. Our old pal Cognitive Dissonance must keep them awake at night.
It is clear from the Uefa statement they have listened and tried to accommodate several scenarios. Where titles are close, like Italy, where Lazio narrowed the gap on Juventus to a point, Uefa suggest a play-off system could allow chasing teams to make up the difference. AZ Alkmaar trail Ajax on goal difference but the Dutch league is expected to call a halt to the campaign as early as today. There are no truly satisfactory closures this season, least of all for Celtic, who will be denied a title winning game.
What we didn’t get was a hard deadline on when teams have to be nominated for European competitions. After discussions with Uefa, the Italian league extended this season’s Serie A to 2 August, so we know for sure the European draws cannot take place until after that date.
I expect we will see European leagues synchronise their moves; there will be no incentive for any radical undertakings. Those without rabid losers will be first to call time, the SPFL will move with the herd, as it should. Then those who called for independent investigations into why the SPFL acted the same way as the rest of Europe will look like the angry losers they are.

Ok put thar question in the wrong context,as someone who
Ives outside the US……
I have a different question and it’s something that isn’t being talked about Is the impact on our children, I have a 4 and a half year old who has regressed since the lockdown won’t go anywhere in the house alone as scared that he will lose someone, we keep Him away from the news but somehow it gets to him
I’ve talked to people in the work and they are seeing the same thing with their kids, it’s heartbreaking for us all and I don’t have the answers

There is no Constitutional right to vote in the USA. The States decide who gets the vote though Congress can legislate the age at which voters can vote. The States can also decide how votes in a General Election can be be allocated though all work on the principle that if you “win” the State you “win” all the Electoral College votes for that State. Each and every State could change the way it votes, but nothing can change the fact that the USA is a Federal System, the States really do have rights, and their (electoral) votes really do count. The voting system could change without any need to resort to Amendments, although it would require one to guarantee the right to vote in the USA, something that does not exist, indeed never has.

GENE, I would sneak in to Clydebank juniors matches and collect empties throughout the game. In those days the juniors attracted large crowds as well.
*In 1957 I saw Dumbarton lose 0-4 to Raith Rovers in a SC quarter final game in front of an 18,000 crowd, it was shown on Scotsport the following day. I met big John McPhail outside prior to ko, he was reporting for the Record at the time.
That crowd tae this day is the Sons record, however its not Boagheids which occurred on Saturday November 28, 1953 when an estimated 22,000 saw Clydebank beat the then holders Vale of Leven in a Scottish Junior Cup 2nd replay.

*aye me tae been more than a few times, also been tae Mass as well as visiting the Cathedral in Havana, so much for a commie country.
The only reason they reached out for Russian help was the septic tanks threw them under the bus tae appease the Miami Cubans who only left because their “good life” was over.
First class health service tae and they have no problem helping other countries who have been affected by hurricanes and earthquakes, in fact they deployed medical personnel tae Africa during the Ebola crisis.
They have also sent medical personnel to the hardest-hit Italian wealthy region of Lombardy as well as to Angola and a dozen Caribbean states such as Suriname and West Indies.
They were only infected by Covis-19 when some Italian tourists brought it in
I had my photie take wearing the hoops under a mural of Che. It’s also the safest place I’ve ever been, had no problem walking on the beach at four in the morning, I widnae walk anywhere after dark in Florida.
The only other place I felt that safe was St Lucia.

Thanks for sharing that, new to me knowledge, so not only is the US of A not the greatest democracy in the world, it doesn’t even qualify as a democracy, people don’t have the right to vote, that is really interesting.

A basic human right .
