BlueEdu 227 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Actually, even from a celtic perspective, I’d back Lawwell to take money over null and void Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
beararse 6,374 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Win the next two games and it shouldn't really matter what happens. Regardless of whether celtic win all their games in hand, if we win the next two games then they can try and null and void it all they want. From a legal position we would be in a VERY strong position to be declared winners. And here's why. 75% of games played represents the 'finishing line' for declaring a winner whilst under the threat of Covid. 29 games represents 75% of the matches in a season. Should celtic win all 9 games to that point they go up to 71 points. if Rangers win 2 from the next 6 we go to 71 points with a huge goal difference advantage. So, if we win the next 2 games AND there is a threat to null and void the season before 75% we would already be in an unassailable position! I can't see how that position could be ignored in any sporting arbitration/court, especially when the SPFL called the league when celtic weren't mathematically clear last season with only 75% of games played. celtic don't even need to play their games in hand as its assumed they would win these in the calculation.

The Dude 20,026 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 8 hours ago, Colin Traive said: It should have been on the table. He suggests that the decisions rest with the clubs but that is dishonest. You go into a restaurant and the waitress takes the menu, tears it to pieces except for two dishes. You pick one and it’s shite. “Too bad, YOU picked it” You’re not told the full list of choices, the pros and cons of each - that is NOT decision making. I don’t think N&V is likely either but not because it’s the wrong option. I don’t think it’ll happen because of the shitstorm it would cause him. He’s a fucking snake. So should it be on the table now? I'm sure you'll be reminding us all how N&V is the only fair option of it happens this year and anything else would be naked corruption Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prso's headband 35,428 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 This is exactly the reason why i wanted us to get to 29 games asap. That’s when the league was called last season and how can they possibly null and void when they only difference is the winners have an even bigger points advantage?

Howsitgoing 4,281 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 The only value in this story is that celtic have bad news pending. I’d be very surprised if by the end of the day we don’t get some more coronavirus cases in their team or something akin to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you'll be reminding us all how N&V is the only fair option of it happens this year and anything else would be naked corruption I’m looking for parity and consistency instead of decisions clearly based on which team is ahead. Doncaster removed the N&V option before asking the clubs their views last season. It was unthinkable, a complete non-starter, not even worthy of discussion. Fine. That’ll do again.

RFC55 108,841 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 The season isn't even near being stopped. Bar the fenians being absolute mongos, other than the odd outbreak at clubs this has actually been managed brilliantly and with testing twice a week there is absolutely no reason for it to even have a break never mind be voided. Without fans at the games there's nothing to.stop football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I don't think n&v will be seen as a viable option by the majority of clubs but don't underestimate the power of Lawwell and his attack dogs (doncaster, mulraney, maxwell, macarthur). This will be pushed front and centre if there is any doubt about the completion of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
