Or the 100% ...apparently!. Probably best to say 110% in public....just to keep the great unwashed on their toes.

Tbf it’ll be a conspiracy by Rangers to stop 9iar and in Govan its a conspiracy by Celtic as Morelos was going to get his first goal against them on sunday and they were going to go on and win the league

I would love it if the season was declared null and void, Lennon mentioned this 30 game rule but ironically enough their bigoted pals have only played 29 😃😆🤪.

Are we declaring Raith winners of League 1 as they are 1 point clear of Falkirk... Despite the fact they are scheduled to go to Falkirk on the last day of the season?

How does this compare to Neil Lennons statement.  Ones class one is crass. 

 

Jurgen Klopp

 

I don’t think this is a moment where the thoughts of a football manager should be important, but I understand for our supporters they will want to hear from the team and I will front that.

First and foremost, all of us have to do whatever we can to protect one another. In society I mean. This should be the case all the time in life, but in this moment I think it matters more than ever.

I’ve said before that football always seems the most important of the least important things. Today, football and football matches really aren’t important at all.

Of course, we don’t want to play in front of an empty stadium and we don’t want games or competitions suspended, but if doing so helps one individual stay healthy - just one - we do it no questions asked.

If it’s a choice between football and the good of the wider society, it’s no contest. Really, it isn’t.

Today’s decision and announcement is being implemented with the motive of keeping people safe. Because of that we support it completely. We have seen members of teams we compete against become ill. This virus has shown that being involved in football offers no immunity. To our rival clubs and individuals who are affected and to those who later will become so, you are in our thoughts and prayers.

None of us know in this moment what the final outcome will be, but as a team we have to have belief that the authorities make decisions based on sound judgement and morality.

Yes, I am the manager of this team and club and therefore carry a leadership responsibility with regards to our future on the pitch. But I think in the present moment, with so many people around our city, the region, the country and the world facing anxiety and uncertainty, it would be entirely wrong to speak about anything other than advising people to follow expert advice and look after themselves and each other.

The message from the team to our supporters is only about your well-being. Put your health first. Don’t take any risk. Think about the vulnerable in our society and act where possible with compassion for them.

Please look after yourselves and look out for each other.

You’ll Never Walk Alone,
Jürgen

👏👏

 

fantastic herr Klopp and liverpool

 

hide yourself in shame Lennon and celtic

Apologies if already mentioned on this thread or elsewhere but there's a Sportscene Special at 7pm on the BBC Scotland channel. 

 

Thommo and, if he's back from holiday and virus free, Michael Stewart will have all the answers.

I find this present situation very difficult to find reasonable conclusion. If the remaining games cannot be played in a fair time before the projected start of the next season I personally think the season should be abandoned. However in saying that there are so many reasons why the season should proceed to its conclusion division winners, promotion and relegation being just a few. On the other hand if for example games are postponed for say  8 to 10 weeks when the season does restart it will not be like it is the same season :lol: The players will not have trained properly games will have to be crammed into a short time frame in short the norms of the game will go completely out the window. If the SPL decide that the season must be concluded then it should be done in such a manner  that teams have time to prepare  and enough time is given between games.

The thought of the season being null and void, Stendel getting a pre season and bringing in players that are capable 😁😁🇱🇻

Good post, Jock. 

 

If the virus isn't due to peak until May/June and the players can't train together, or properly, they'll have to do some kind of preseason before starting again. 

 

That could mean the fixtures not being resumed until July. 

 

If that is the case then abandoning the league season could be the only solution. 

 

The Scottish Cup is now just a three game tournament and could be squeezed in but not the league fixtures. 

 

Declare the league season null and void (we'd lose two wins at ER but the avoidance of relegation would compensate), scrap relegation, promote two and increase the Premier to 14 for next season. Either permanently or for one season only. If temporary, relegate three in '20/21 (Hibs included, hopefully) and promote one for '21/22.

How pathetic and cringeworthy are Celtic being. Lives are at risk and all they care about is "look at us, we are champions" 

Embarrassing... no wonder they are viewed as a disgusting joke around the world.

This thread amply demonstrates the vagaries of the cranial synapses of the average football fan. On the one hand, Hearts fans crave the league table to be frozen because we're racing certainties for the drop but we cannot conceive of the converse possibility of the clear league leaders being awarded a title that is patently obviously their's by right! While I'm no fan of the other cheek, I'll hold my hands up to being somebody who wishes to bestow upon Rangers* their first genuinely earned title of First Club To Be Liquidated Twice.

It is certainly a most difficult position for not only the  football side but also the government people do have to be protected and some sort of common sense must prevail. The situation is not without a sort of parallel it is 1914 Hearts are right at the other end of the league the war mongers are infuriated that football is still being played while men are senselessly dying in a stupid imperialistic war our brave young lads break the mold and join up as a unit    ... we all know what happened then.

If the season is delayed there is potential that clubs may have players who’s contracts have fun out prior to the new end date. How can this be fair. 
 

scrap the season start again next year.

Don't get why we are certainties for the drop? There are still more than enough games left from which to gain the required points to remain. On the other hand Celtic are champions by right ?... why there are still enough points available for the team in second place to catch them. You have some bizarre ideas about arithmetic. I don't think your brain is quite the best either!

Why not just type in commonly used English?  ‘We cannot conceive of the converse’. 😀

I’m here......without the benefit of a Chrystal ball, a team should not be relegated if there was a possibility they could have avoided the drop.  Any team at the top & second should be promoted, they are where they are on merit.  This avoids unnecessary relegations, legal proceedings and all the nonsense that comes with it.  It’s a win win for everyone I would think.  
What’s the alternative?

Neil Lennon will always be a complete wank.

 

I’ll buy a shirt with COVID-19 on the back if we stay up.

 

And will then go back to abusing Budge and all the losers around her.

If Rangers were in Celtic’s position in the league at present, do we think that Lennon would be saying that Rangers should be awarded the championship title because they are 13 points in front?

I doubt it myself. Probably he would be more along the lines of plenty points to play for and anything can happen.

What a shallow, selfish entity Celtic are.

Sorry, nothing new to add. Just read Lennon’s statement and even for that popcorn-toothed ned, he’s gone way too far. More concerned about his own c.v. than a pandemic. Absolute vile creature

Let’s see what the authorities propose but if there is even an inkling that they are thinking of relegating us and awarding leagues, the club would need to fight tooth and nail.

They aren't converse possibilities...they're both born from the same logic. Hearts shouldn't be relegated because there's still games to play, teams shouldn't be crowned champions because there's still games to play.

 

Now you can argue we should be relegated and Celtic should be champions because we should declare the current standings all you like but there's nothing illogical about the opposing viewpoint.

Yep. If Livi and Aberdeen Away are never played I want a refund for those games.

I won't ask for a refund of any kind for remaining games on my Heart's season ticket though but I get full pay if off sick unlike some others.
