Celtic urge SPFL to release fixture list for new season

[dh1963]

Is this in case questions get asked why the hurry to end the last season so quickly?

Celtic have urged the SPFL to issue the fixture calendar for the new season "as soon as possible".

The new Premiership season will start behind closed doors on the weekend of 1 August - if Scotland is in phase two of its coronavirus recovery.
Premiership clubs have been given a targeted return date of 11 June for player training ahead of the new campaign.

Talks will continue regarding how lower league football will restart.

 

[gartsherrie]

FFS - they really do set the agenda.

 

[IrvineLoyal]

They are up to something

 

[Widdenheed]

They are up to something

they always are the sneaky slimey c*nts

 

[flootbon]

They are up to something

To bury last season before EUFA start sniffing about.

 

[Pennine Walk]

Get back in your box ya 19th Century Terrorist bastia's.

 

[andyfaethehill]

only after we have been to court, mon the hearts

 

[DylanGer]

Is it so supporters can make arrangements?

Anyone not having serious doubts the restart is going to be a train wreck has a very optimistic world view....

 

[IrvineLoyal]

To bury last season before EUFA start sniffing about.

Yes mate probably.



Lets move on forget it never happened kind of thing

 

[CR7]

Get the fixture list out, play a round of fixtures then call it as unsustainable to run the rest of season and dully award them the title.

 

[Scott4ll]

They have probably just finished writing them and want them released.

 

[djcamer]

Why the hurry timmy I wonder.

 

[nelster]

UEFA letter

 

[Chris01]

They probably want hamilton and ross county at home first couple of games. Give us Aberdeen and Hibs away.

Then if we drop any points they can push to call the league early for “safety” and“threat of the virus”.

Tainted Ten ....

 

[BlueBaloo]

Definately.

They are up to something

They always are..sneaking about and lurking

Creepy baristas

 

[Coisty09]

They will be worried that Hearts may get an injunction to prevent the league being started and move for judicial review of the decision to end early and have the scum the title!!!

 

[Morty]

They dont want to play behind closed doors for the first old firm game so it'll either be switched to Ibrox or all the fixtures against that mob will be pushed back to next year.

 

[Calvinist]

First old firm game at Ibrox (no fans) second at piggery (better chance of some fans being there)

 

[LoneRanger]

In a rush to know who they have to cheat for 1 in a row

 

[Jeb]

Need to get their glamour friendlies booked.

 

[Derta]

They want it announced to put another nail in Hearts coffin. They will have discussed it with Doncaster before calling for it.
To be fair to Rangers. Trying to win anything now will be almost impossible. The next call will be for us to be their ballboys.
I am slowly losing any interest now as there is no longer a competition.

 

[sammy1872]

It will be about the old firm games and ensuring we don’t get to play in front of fans at Ibrox. will no doubt get the spfl to say something like if game at parkhead is behind closed doors so is game at Ibrox . Not sure how legal that is but or if they can enforce that if govt say fans can go back

Honestly think the spfl would ensure no team has fans until new year even if it was safe in October and cost smaller clubs 2 months income just to ensure both old firms are behind closed doors

They couldn’t Get away with that so what I expect to happen is all 4 old firms moved to the New year and for them to hide behind the sky contract and say sky demanded it

 

[Billy72]

Keep watching those sneaky bastards,upto something.we know they are lying when they open that mentally challenged mouth.no surrender w.a.t.p

 

[NDC bear forever]

Is it so supporters can make arrangements?

Anyone not having serious doubts the restart is going to be a train wreck has a very optimistic world view....

If a Liverpool game doesn’t get mobbed by fans then I’m sure we’d be fine up here

 

[Creed Bratton]

It will be whenever they're happy with the 'randomly selected computer generated fixtures'

 

[Thechemist]

Get the Japan tour in before the season opener against a team they can rack up the goals and claim the tainted ten on goal difference

 

[Luthgibear]

Can expect the new fixtures this afternoon then....

 

[Shengus Malengus]

Aye, no' bad Pete.
As if you don't know them already.

 

[Coplandbear]

No integrity or morals they demanded and wanted the season declared to claim a tainted title and now knowing it's sealed they want Football to restart you really couldn't make this up.

 

[EndOfDays]

The first old firm game of the season is at parkhead and will 100% be BCD, I'm certain they will do everything they can to stop the next game after that at Ibrox having fans at it.

They will laughably claim sporting integrity.

 

[CooperSF]

"We will not be found wanting"

 

[jaws73]

Fixture list gets issued for all leagues and if you can't fulfill a fixture it is a 3-0 reverse. You can make allowances for COVID-19 for awarding Celtic a title but that is where it begins and ends with them

You wouldn't put it past them and I could see UEFA going down the same route for their CL and EL 2020/21 fixtures.

 

[Laudrup1]

They are up to something

The don't want the first OF game, due to be played at The Piggery, to be behind closed doors.

 

[amabluestar]

First old firm game at Ibrox (no fans) second at piggery (better chance of some fans being there)

That will not happen.
That would be the straw that broke the camels back.
Our board would go full tonto if they tried that one, i would hope.

Spot on , exactly what I’ve said post the rigged vote , when you have a refereeing , financial and administrative advantage like the mentally challengeds , it’s done .

 

[Gio#56]

Get the fixture list out, play a round of fixtures then call it as unsustainable to run the rest of season and dully award them the title.

Its so the Scottish Cup can take place ie 19/20 one. As soon as the first league fixture takes place then the SFA can cancel the pyramid play off which to date has not happened.

Anyone with two brain cells can work them out.

 

[ricksen24]

I thought they normally set the fixture list ?

 

[bearspakora]

They are terrified of this season being officially declared incomplete and therefore null and void by a Court.

 

[vancy]

They are terrified of this season being officially declared incomplete and therefore null and void by a Court.

That's what it looks like to me. They are keen to get moving to next season so last season is gone.

 

[Muddy Boots]

First old firm game at Ibrox (no fans) second at piggery (better chance of some fans being there)

The Super fixture computer (AKA a pencil and a sheet of paper) says that our games are swapped around each season and we are due to go to theirs first. Surely there can't be corruption in that? Oh sorry I will step back from my fantasy world. Yes they could

 

[Artful Dodger]

Don’t trust timmy they are up to something.My bet to head off any court action by hearts.Which I don’t think will happen either.

 

[bearspakora]

That's what it looks like to me. They are keen to get moving to next season so last season is gone.

The mutants want to quickly move on and get next season started. A Court declaring this season incomplete and null and void would destroy those scum.

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

The EPL won't be starting their league until September at the earliest and I would imagine most leagues around europe will be the same.

The later we start, the more chance we have of having fans in the stadium.

 

[IrvineLoyal]

The don't want the first OF game, due to be played at The Piggery, to be behind closed doors.

%^*& all would suprise me with they scummy cheating peado bastards

 

[I believe in Eli]

They are up to something

They'll be panicking about champions league qualifiers. They will want to be playing and demonstrating they can host games before the qualifiers, so they can ensure they are part of it.

 

[TNT]

They are shameless, shameless scumbags!

And if anyone had any doubt about who drove for the early end - there it is!

Basically, it's a massive Eff You to Hearts..................no more, no less.

If they can get the fixtures out, there is less chance of reconstruction.


Between this and Liewell attending a meeting he had no entitlement to be at - it's absolutely disgusting!

 

[mikeymols_10]

They’re up to something.

As my wee old gran used to say “don’t trust any single one of them”

 

[TNT]

They want it announced to put another nail in Hearts coffin. They will have discussed it with Doncaster before calling for it.
To be fair to Rangers. Trying to win anything now will be almost impossible. The next call will be for us to be their ballboys.

We will not win ON the pitch until things are taken care of OFF the pitch.

 

[stein and johnston]

celtic = “Jump”

SPFL = “How High.?”

Whit? One brain cell over here.
