The Left Wing Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Apparently we could be awarded a 3-0 win & go through. I hope not. We were gubbed & it was well deserved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat(The most tip top) Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Difference. He wasn't listed in the squad. The Legia player was banned from the game. I wasn't attempting to suggest that the Debrecen case was an exact match just that it was closer to the case in hand than the Sion one which involved multiple players and a transfer embargo. The thing that stuck out for me was that UEFA took into account that the brief participation of the ineligible player clearly had no affect on the result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly you missed the player in question making several goal saving tackles and clearing the ball off the line at least 5 times. That's how i remember it! Great player, i'll always remeber the day i saw the player in question play in the flesh. A modern day great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Not sure what would be more pleasing to be honest, Celtic losing this appeal and being stuck with the shitey Europa League or Celtic winning this and being hunted in the last qualifying tie meaning they would be out of europe altogether? Teams that lose in the playoff round now drop in to the Europa league group stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowrising Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Teams that lose in the playoff round now drop in to the Europa league group stage. Yup a decision in their favour would mean European games whatever the result in the next round 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry Saint Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Ok, Legia fielded an ineligible player. But in a different sense, Celtic fielded 11 of them... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 You know when folk in the media and on here give it the whole "laughing stock of world football!" every time we have a bad year in Europe? Getting emptied from the Champs League play-offs for an admin mistake is genuine laughing stock material - there will be someone down the job centre in Warsaw for that seven figure f**k up. Polish football was already a laughing stock of course for getting one of their top clubs papped out of Europe by a part time Icelandic team 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuggie_Murray7 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Doesn't read the thread ... ^^^^^^^^^^ There's nothing to be proud of, or ashamed of, as we didn't do anything other than play the tie. You did get utterly humiliated and embarrassed by a third rate eastern European mob though, yeah? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Nobody disputed we were humiliated on the pitch. At least you get a crack at being utterly humiliated and embarrassed to an eastern European third rate mob for the second time this summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grass Is Greener. Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Tears of laughter ... we'll overturn the deficit. Just noticed this Aw well you got through in the end 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 You can dream. CL monies await ... maybe even the money and a crack at Europa or the last 16 and even more dosh. Anyway we'll still have European nights to look forward to as we cruise to yet another Scottish Champions title. I'm so heartbroken ... gutted I am. Awwww look at you trying to convince yourself you're enjoying all this without your wee pals. Cute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityDave Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Anyone remember Sion? Legia have 5 days to appeal and save Celtic from a complete spit roasting by the likes of Maribor or Aalborg. Either way this goes Celtic lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Warsaw were the better team, they broke the rules (intentional or not) we did not miss the two penalties, we did not field a suspended player, we do not make UEFA rules, we do not apply the rules and by all accounts Legia reported the 'mistake' not Celtic. Ashamed or proud of what? This is all Legia's doing, we only participated in a tie. I am enjoying the diddy tears and seethe though sorry this is wrong celtic clealry did not at any point "participate" in this tie. they showed up , rolled on their side and got shafted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
