More games for them. All for it.
Lunatics have taken over the asylum
Sense doesn’t seem to matter in the decision making process. The agenda of one club is all that does.
that’s for certain. If there is one competition that should be null and void it is that. Teams have played about 4 games to get to the semi finals and the prize money is tiny

They should just declare the beggars as cup winners as it's no less legitimate than awarding them the league.
Why not? They are strong favourites to win the SC.
All they are in the league at the minute is strong favourites to win it yet they are going to be handed that.
If they can call the league early based on who the favourites are then what would be stopping them just doing the same with the SC. One is just as illegitimate as the other.

If they could get away with it mate, I'm sure they would do it.
They will even have the brass neck to call it a "treble" too.

I’ve heard someone say the season should be stopped, the league standings should count title “awarded“ and Hearts relegated.
The only games that should be concluded is the Scottish cup semifinals and final as it is only three games.
Guess what team he supported???
As crazy as it sounds I wouldn’t put it past them.

Bit weird that as every team would have different players. This is the worst idea I have read so far.
so far that hasn't helped us in the slightest, they can play as many games as we want, but how about we stopping shitting our pants half way through the season
Just like the league they obviously won't lose any games so why should the not just be awarded it. Seems as fair as being awarded the league .They will be playing the same teams as they would in the league.

Timothy has called Scottish Football corrupt since day dot.
He is correct that it's corrupt, but not in the way he thinks. The mental gymnastics we have seen over the last 24hrs about giving them the League now but the Scottish Cup must be played to a finish next season!
That my friend is corruption

can we not award it to Celtic on goal average?

That’s not an issue - it is fundamentally corrupt, wrong and extremely disturbing.
The game of football will not recover from this

So in theory if Celtc lose their semi final, they could lodge a protest saying that one of their opponents players was not signed to them at the start of the competition. Would they be awarded the tie? Of course this applies to the four teams. So basically this would mean another rewriting of the rules.

And they wonder why people down south laugh at Scottish football, every last one of them running Scottish football are amateurs, mentally challenged sympathisers or both combined.

How would the cup tied rule apply in this scenario? Can you be cup tied over 2 seasons?

If Rangers were winning the League and demanded the League title when bodies were piling up in Scotland and elsewhere, we'd be rightly condemned as scum of the Earth, with MP's and MSP's leading the way. I've read and heard no condemnation whatsoever of Celtc's vile behaviour.

They will do anything for them to get another treble.
Scottish football is a cesspit.
Scottish football is a cesspit.
The only thing that matters is getting their tainted trophies to them, whether they actually win them or not.
It’s been said a million times but the entire game in Scotland is run for the benefit of one club.

Just the tip...
Yet another trophy in the bag for them, not for it.

This reeks to me that they think they've got the title in hand and are now pushing for the cup. So they can have a quadruple treble*.

If they're prepared to bring the League to an abrupt end, then it's difficult to justify continuing with another 2019-2020 tournament later in the year.
Just draw a line under it.
