Manchester 13 - 2 London

[Churchill]

TM, we may have had to get used to cheating within the confines of the SPL, but at least in Europe there is a higher authority that does not make moral decisions based solely on goat preferences.

Not that you're bitter and twisted, eh?

Btw, for the uninitiated it's GAOTU

3 minutes. Not bad. Nothing like a surreptitious mention of "goat" to flush out a naval man eh?

Any port in a storm, my dear Bhoy!

Nope. I am referring to the fact that these Swiss tossers cheated!!!!

Sepp Blatter to help Celtic's Sion appeal | Mail Online

I had missed that. I do believe there is precedent for the ejection of Sion.
Would Celtic have any real expectations if they couldn't beat Sion though?

Any real expectations of what exactly? Of winning it? Who knows....probably not, but with a bit of investment we may garner some extra cash out of it. Both sides of the Old Firm have reached the Final within the last decade.

Fair enough, I suppose there must be a few quid to be made for getting knocked out in the group stage.
Good luck to Celtic.
I do think it is a bit sad (even if it is correct) to use the rule book to get past a team you could not beat.

It's not Celtic who're using the rulebook.

Many people are saying that. However, one of the players that should not have been playing scored 2 goals for them in the second leg. Without those goals we would have beaten them.

No the other chap they should have used could have scored the same 2 goals.

I do take your point though. It is fair to assume he was batter than who ever he replaced.

Shame there is no time (or possibility) to play the games again with the correct players in place.

The correct thing to do is eject Sion and let Celtic through.

They did in the 1990s when Stuttgart broke the rules in injury time of their European Cup win over Leeds.

The tie was replayed, Leeds won it, but then lost to Rangers in the next round I think.
