Lemon saying it was Monday after Hamilton he flew out. Assuming he didn't go and return on the same day, he should be in isolation for 14 days from Tuesday. Whenever he has come back into contact with the rest of the squad, they should also have a period out.

Real question marks over their CL game.

The question is WHEN did they know he went to Spain if it was before the Killie game then should be hammered for playing him

 

[sw26]

Bolingoli almost cost them the CL last year just by virtue of being shite at football, would be genuinely hilarious if he finishes the job this year based on this.

 

[WBD]

Paragraph after the one circled is more relevant no?

Forfeit the match
..
By what score though?

 

[Rotto]

What was the reason given for the Aberdeen game being postponed? When they still could have played with the players available?

Because the whole squad should be isolating.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Had this been the other way about and Killie fielded a player who'd done what BB did, they'd be squealing for the 3 points and they'd be backed up by every single one of their press poodles.

Yep, Legia Warsaw & Sion prove that mate

 

[Ted Rangers]

One of the SSN reporters mentioned there's talk he went to Spain to speak to representatives from another club.

He went to Spain for a day, it's hardly the worst thing in their history, but they feel the punishment should be more severe. We'll find out the punishment in 3 years after the internal investigation is complete.

 

[sw26]

Forfeit the match
..
By what score though?

One leg qualifier so doesn’t really matter.

 

[Gordy411]

Tim game and sheep game off. Official.

Where you reading this bud?

 

[The Double A Man]

Wonder if the compliance officer is sharpening her pencil before writing up all the celtc contraventions.Will be interesting to see if she springs into action any time soon.

 

[Gogso]

If that mob had any sense they would get rid of Griffiths now.

No way is he going to go any length of time without breaching the rules again.

Who going to pay a fee for him and match his apparent £20k PW salary while he's mostly not able to play for various reasons be they real or rumoured?

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Forfeit the match
..
By what score though?

3.0 is the norm & that’s how they knocked Legia out mate

 

[QueensferryCR3Bear]

Sky News still saying the league may be suspended in its top of the hour headlines.

 

[The_Bear]

Games off according to SSN.

[SuperGers07]

I wonder if sky will now try move our game to 6pm tomorrow and show it

 

[jigster]

That’s my thinking as well mate. Shame he hadn’t returned a day later. I assume it’s confirmed it was 4 Aug?

But surely the bigger talking point is that if he sat on the team bus or in the team dressing room everyone in those areas have to self isolate for 14 days as well from thay date ie Sunday

 

[Once a BEAR]

There next 2 games cancelled SSN

 

[alex wright]

Lol, after pumping Hamilton (a team of teenagers) - Lennon "have a few days off bhoys, this league will be won at a canter"

Team laze around, come back to play Killie expecting to just turn up and win and look like sh*t

Lennon is really useless as a manager. Does well initially due to the team he takes over being decent and gradually destroys it. Same as last time

That useless manager changed the way his team played after the defeat to us in December and won 9 and drew 1 of their next 10 league games. How did we do in comparison?

Get in.

 

[Mr Wilton]

Any word from Doncaster yet or is he busy trying to invent new rule into his rules?.

The prick is panicking now, as it’s not just Liewell he’s answerable to now the government is involved and despite them cosying up to them they’d happily throw them under the bus to save face!

 

[StuGers]

Yes, they’re throwing him under the bus. Classic Celtic Juan Guy.

I get a feeling the truth might be different mate.

Have they actually came out with this line? Not surprised to be honest.

 

[Gordy411]

This is glorious

 

[Ke55y]

Games are postponed confirmed ssn

 

[insanicdrunk]

If they get papped oota europe because of this Im 100% changing my twitter name to include bolingoli

There will be loads of confused beggars ad bolingoli is added to half of Rangers twitter names!

 

[Laudrup1]

They can still go out for a pint or something to eat if they want. The only rule the Aberdeen players broke was too many different households were out together at the same time.

Makese sense.

 

[McQueen]

https://twitter.com/x/status/1293171316921597952

Oh ya wee beauty.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Have they actually came out with this line? Not surprised to be honest.

I haven’t read their statement yet Stu, just my interpretation from on here mate.

 

[PortoyMortoy]

I wonder if sky will now try move our game to 6pm tomorrow and show it

It's at Ibrox, don't see why they would waste one of their limited amount of our home matches they can show on Rangers vs St Johnstone

 

[insanicdrunk]

Games are postponed confirmed ssn

That says f all!

 

[Troy McClure]

Utter arselicking of celtic for throwing boli to the wolves, the SPFL are a joke. Miracle they didnt just stop the league.

 

[Mr Shakedown]

Mutiny in the camp.Lennon (quite rightly) throwing his player under the bus .

 

[WalterLoyal]

What was the reason given for the Aberdeen game being postponed? When they still could have played with the players available?

Health experts suspected more Aberdeen players could have been carrying the virus which would have put the St Johnstone players and staff at risk.

 

[dalriada]

The Icelanders should be asking questions. Much as it could damage the Scottish coefficient I am sure responsible fans will reluctantly admit the Icelanders should be given a walkover.

 

[Krissie]

just catching up with this. So no public slaughtering of the orcs but the sheep were fair game, is that right? No punishment from the government but leaving the orc board to sort it out who have came up with no games for the orcs or sheep for a week. So in essence feck all done.

Not really, government have treated football as adults. Theyve been letdown and warning shots have been fired. They dont have any jurisdiction on the inner workings of the game but the expectation has been placed on the football authority to sort the problem out and the world is watching. Over to Doncaster et al. Celtic not getting any special treatment IMO.

 

[Sutton_Blows_goats]

One of the SSN reporters mentioned there's talk he went to Spain to speak to representatives from another club.

Should still be hammered for it, can use Zoom, Teams, facetime etc.

 

[insanicdrunk]

https://twitter.com/x/status/1293171316921597952

In a good league, they would arrange a St mirren v Hamilton tie so they are not disadvantaged in the future. Also stick it on the telly!

 

[Valley Bluenose]

But surely the bigger talking point is that if he sat on the team bus or in the team dressing room everyone in those areas have to self isolate for 14 days as well from thay date ie Sunday

It’s from the Tuesday. 4 Aug. And yes, I’d agree, they should all be isolating. Hence my later questions about whether Dhims and Sheep can train.

 

[hunter1rfc]

That says f all!

Its on sfa website aswell

 

[Modfella]

The Icelanders should be asking questions. Much as it could damage the Scottish coefficient I am sure responsible fans will reluctantly admit the Icelanders should be given a walkover.

%^*& the coefficent.

 

[joburgbear]

As predicted Sellick & treacle teeth throwing Bolingoli under the bus

 

[ColinA]

Keep reading Ceptic stating they didn’t know boli was away BUT surely they missed him at training etc? Did he just nip over to Spain for an hour or so

 

[insanicdrunk]

Its on sfa website aswell

The post I mean! Never said what games were off.

 

[insanicdrunk]

Keep reading Ceptic staying they didn’t know boli was away BUT surely they missed him at training etc? Did he just nip over to Spain for an hour or so

They got 4 days off training.

 

[alex wright]

Keep reading Ceptic stating they didn’t know boli was away BUT surely they missed him at training etc? Did he just nip over to Spain for an hour or so

The squad had days off. Lennon said it was "a couple of days off", there are reports it could have been as many as four. The story may have a bit to run yet.

 

[aayjay]

So the games will be postponed and that will be it ? Wouldn't surprise me. What other sanctions by the SPFL against Aberdeen and them ? Can you imagine the outcry from every man and his dog for points deductions if it had been one of ours ? For breaking the law, for breaking the football protocol, for risking lives and risking Scottish football as a whole Bolingoli should not play in Scotland again.

 

[MDM]

Having to play these postponed games later in the season will cause havoc for Celtic given there is no room as it is.....expect the season to be extended for Peter's Bhoys.....

 

[The Predator]

This is glorious PR for the filth. Absolutely glorious and I am loving every second of it. Let's win our next two matches

 

[Macdonsj]

Keep reading Ceptic stating they didn’t know boli was away BUT surely they missed him at training etc? Did he just nip over to Spain for an hour or so

how could he discuss terms with another club without their knowledge?
surely somone would have asked - how are you discussing it?

 

[Simply a Bear]

Is there a possibility that they can forfeit their champions league tie? Anyone clued up on the rules? I'm sure Reykjavik fc would have concerns about playing them after this.

 

[DerekSSR]

So Lennon never knew anything about one his players going on holiday? Lol...
