fed up reading "One source said " etc
Peter Lawwell is the source we all know this. He is setting the narrative. Yet our own Mr Robertson who is indeed on the board for making this decision keeps his powder dry. Well, he better be doing this for a reason and that reason better not be what his track record suggests.
Who said ‘one source’ HB ?
English & McLaughlin speaking to Doncaster & Lawwell yesterday.
Dont have to listen to know how this will end up
They played a short clip of Barry, we should accept whatever decision is made.

Lawwell is not even on the board that decides. Its Stewart Robertson although they have about 3 puppets of Lawwell on their inc doncaster.
I’ll leave it to brothers with a stronger stomach than mine to listen and report back
Because they dont want to lose the tv money. That's why this closed doors scenario keeps popping up. They get their viewers and they're advertising. Only way that could be stopped was if nobody subscribed, but that wont happen and the tv companies know it.Why don’t they just call this season null and void all over Europe, and start next season’s Champions League and Europa Leagues again?
No qualifiers, and those that had qualified for the groups in those competitions at the start of season 19/20 are in the group stages again for season 20/21, which are redrawn.
It puts an end to this ridiculous handing over of titles and without qualifiers it gives every thing time to settle down and players get a proper pre season and are fresh to start.
Scottish football - as with most European Leagues - couldn’t sustain this state of affairs as the majority of clubs income comes from Matchday footfall in terms of tickets and associated matchday revenue streams like hospitality and cateringAberdeen chairman saying in the States he has had conversations with club owners in various sports who are planning on not playing in front of live crowds until the end of the year. They are looking at playing games live on TV without paying crowds.

I try to defend our ex players as much as possible but if Barry Ferguson said that he should be bloody ashamed.
Ferguson, like everybody else they wheel out, has a vested interest in this. He wants Kelty promoted into the league. You don’t hear so much from representatives of teams that miss out if the league is called with current positions and champions/relegation based on that.
If Kelty Hearts mean more to him than Rangers then I despair.

Excuse me if I am wrong but their own rules make no provision for cancellation of the league. They state that the “competition” is 38 games long. If we have only played 29 and no more games can be played then, by their own rules the season is incomplete.
They either VOID or they play to a finish. Thems the rules. As they cannot fit in any more games it’s fucking VOID.
Making rules up on the fly to the detriment of Rangers however seems to be allowed so not doubt BBC Scotland’s wet dream will come to fruition.
He said that ? He’s as bad as Jackson, Waddell and all the other lickspittles.They played a short clip of Barry, we should accept whatever decision is made.

Barry may well have used those very words but to use them in isolation gives the impression, as one headline had it, that he thinks Celtic should be awarded the title and the Rangers fans will just need to accept it.
This is not what he said.
He pointed out that titles should be won on the pitch, that they should not simply be handed out and that, like all genuine football people, he hoped the season could be resumed and played to a conclusion.
He then pointed out that the longer it went on it seemed obvious that football was not going to be resumed this season and that with all that's going on in the world there were more important things and that he was gradually caring less and less about such things as football titles. (A point of view that has been expressed by many on here)
It was then that he made the comment that whatever the ultimate decision was as to how we end the season we would all just have to accept it.
The media jumped on this as Barry saying we should just accept Celtic being gifted the title but that's not a true reflection of what was said.
Dave king could be the source and the mentally challenged media wouldnt even do his dirty work. We need to realise, it doesnt matter who is in control at the top of Ibrox. How do we legitimately get back control of any external media?fed up reading "One source said " etc

Like many of our ex players, particularly some who are not exactly brain of Britain material or media savvy, they allow themselves to be badgered until they make a statement that the rattlers in the media can latch onto.Fair enough, but why can’t he just come out and say Celtic cannot be awarded at title they did not win. He should have been empathising that first and foremost.
Are you trying to tell me that the media and loads of fans are simply looking at the headline quotes and not reading into what he ACTUALLY said? I'm shockedBarry may well have used those very words but to use them in isolation gives the impression, as one headline had it, that he thinks Celtic should be awarded the title and the Rangers fans will just need to accept it.

Rangers can’t and won’t say a word as it’s all speculation at the moment.
We’ll just have to wait and see what happens and take it from there.
I suggest we look and see what the wider context of his quoted were. I'd imagine they weren't simply clear cut as hand them the title. Not seen or heard any of it though, its just usually what happens.I try to defend our ex players as much as possible but if Barry Ferguson said that he should be bloody ashamed.
