We build through the full backs a lot, and missing one makes the team lopsided and easy to double up on. First 30 mins of the Killie game and they were really happy to let Halliday have the ball, dropping the right midfielder to sit on Kent and choking the middle of the park.

With Jack out as well and coming back in, which disrupts the rhythm of the central three and clearly affected Kamara, Alfie being distracted and a little off the boil, and Gerrard being a bit cute about centre backs and using them effectively.

And the refs are poo poo.

I was working and only knew Celtic were getting beat; I begrudingly accepted a point when Rogic equalized at the end.

Imagine my happy surprise to then find out the Rangers score.

The funny thing is I wouldn't be surprised if they beat us in the two remaining derby games.

The scum are running a story saying they expect the rest of the league fixtures to be cancelled

https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/5387346/boris-johnson-scottish-premiership-over-celtic-hearts/

quote:

SunSport understands SPFL chiefs expect the Prime Minister to intervene this week as the coronavirus crisis grows.

BoJo is likely to order an immediate end to professional leagues across Britain, killing off the current uncertainty.

The SPFL — in line with their English counterparts — would then decide on ratifying final positions in all four divisions as they stand.

Crucially, doing this would enable the SPFL to distribute prize money early to help clubs survive the coming months.

--

Celtic, Dundee United, Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers could all now be declared title winners for the 2019/20 season.

Hearts, Partick Thistle, Stranraer and Brechin would drop down, though it’s unclear who would be promoted to League Two.

I don’t know. Honestly think that you’d have to go to something like -

Where teams could mathematically win the league, playoff in either a mini league or 3rd vs 2nd vs 1st type situation which decides the final positions - or just null and void?

Fucks so much with promotion that it’ll get challenged either way. I know the SPFL rules are that it’s whoever’s first at the end of the season, and they can call a board to decide when the end of the season is, so there’s not much real argument against it, but again ‘asterisk years’

Don't care about the winner, highly doubt anyone other than celtic was gonna get the title, but the relegation spot is up for a fight. Either pick it back before the next one starts, if possible, or just ditch the whole thing.

Rangers are calling for an independent investigation into the whole process and Doncaster to be suspended during it, citing a whistleblower account of worrying irregularities. We’re gonna have more court cases than games next season.

quote:

WE have been presented with evidence via a whistleblower that raises serious concerns surrounding the SPFL’s processes relating to its stewardship of the voting on the resolution presented to member Clubs.

Rangers’ Interim Chairman, Douglas Park, attempted to discuss this evidence with SPFL chief executive, Neil Doncaster, who initially refused to do so. The SPFL followed up that call with an e-mail, which we believe was a thinly disguised attempt to silence legitimate concerns.

Rangers will not be bullied into silence. We believe it is in the interests of all Scottish clubs and supporters that the evidence, which is alarming, be addressed as quickly as possible.

The voting debacle and the evidence we possess raise serious questions concerning the corporate governance of the SPFL.

Mr Park said: “The lack of leadership and responsibility from the SPFL as a members’ organisation has shocked me. If ever there was a time for complete openness and transparency, it is now. Crucial decisions are being made on the issues of promotion and relegation behind closed doors and without proper time for consideration or debate.

“The farcical conduct of this affair seems to me to bring the corporate governance and business operations of the SPFL into sharp focus. It is an example of an undemocratic culture, which has existed within the SPFL for far too long.

“As a member club, we are disturbed by the evidence that has been presented and feel there is no choice but to call for an independent investigation into this entire matter. Each member of the SPFL board has a duty to its members to ensure that such an investigation is instructed without delay.

“All we ask for is equality and respect. In the past few days, we have become alarmed at a seeming lack of even-handedness and fair play from the SPFL. This is surely unacceptable and, if substantiated, must be remedied.

“Other member clubs, who have seen the evidence we hold, share our concerns.

“We call for the suspension of the SPFL’s Chief Executive, Neil Doncaster and its legal adviser, Rod McKenzie while an independent investigation is conducted.”

They’d have been getting more through the process of prize money being allocated during a normal season anyway?

Apparently the SPFL have stated that they can advance loans to any club at any time, and that Rangers’ resolution is therefore redundant. Given the sell on the ‘say Celtic won and get your money or go bust’ alternative it’s going down like an Aberdeen defender being breathed on.

Since sevco are doing this for the good of the game, why don't they propose that they and Celtic give up the prize money and let it be allocated equally across all the remaining clubs ? I'm glad the four hundred statements an hour are because they care so much about the bullying of the wee clubs and not a transparent attempt to shift the blame for their inevitable administration to the SPFL
