Once you start down the decentralisation route, it is too easy to let the big fish in the small pool corrupt what should be an independent process for the good of all. From your perspective as a celtic supporter, I can understand why you are lobbying for the outcome you want but there is zero integrity in giving out prizes not yet earned. As I’ve explained to you before, we’ve been playing football since the 1800s and, in this sport, a contest abandoned is restarted with the result at time of abandonment expunged. You’ll keep your 8IAR and your CL place so you’ve not lost anything. Bigger issues out there than keeping your lot happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course, FIFA have ever been involved in any corruption. Nope. Definitely not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your contempt for these bodies would soon disappear if they declared your beloved hoops as champions tomorrow so don’t start with that pish. Whether you like it or not, FIFA and UEFA are the governing bodies and they have a duty to show leadership especially in a time of crisis. ”just do whatever you like in your own countries” is a clear dereliction of duty and abdication of responsibilities. We all know that neither body is perfect but, for better or worse, they are the governing bodies in the sport. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,725 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 2 hours ago, The Dude said: Juve still claiming the titles they were stripped of after being found guilty of match-fixing? Yeah what are they like, puting a wee asterisk in and pretending it's still a legit trophy. Pesky. Some contrast though with their views on a league cut short rather than ones stripped from them. Arguably hollow words until such a time they were actually awarded the scudetto and we see how they respond in actions, but on the face of it seems like they have finally discovered some form of integrity.

Tomatasauce 1,253 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Anybody know what happened when the league season was disrupted By war? did they null and void or did they declare a winner, maybe there is a precedent already set? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first season of the war, season 1939/40 was stopped 5 games in and declared null and void. The Emergency League was played that season and was unofficial, Rangers won it. Seasons 39/40 to 45/46 were all Emergency Leagues and all won by Rangers and all unofficial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
