This is on another level from what happened with the Aberdeen players Rip up his contract and donate his wages to the NHS What a p***k I don't think one is worse than the other. Equally stupid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pubs are open, you’re allowed to go to out and enjoy yourself in a pub. Going to Spain and not quarantining on return is illegal 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely should be getting rid now. Fucking idiot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnmc80 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Can see celtic using this as the the perfect excuse to get rid of bolingoli. Which would be the correct decision because of his behaviour. But do you think they would taken the same stance if it was french eddy who had been caught out being as stupid as boli? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 The SPFL and SFA are basically going to have to fucking beg. Not looking good... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Football was brought back early against SG wishes. Obviously they did eventually agree but with strict stipulations - Return to Training, Return to Playing etc... They have all said 'yes sir, no sir, three bags full sir' to Jason Leitch tonight and now this breaks. Controlling a pandemic is more important than a few voters' noses being out of joint. Not everyone votes SNP. I appreciate you may have some inside knowledge, but there is nothing in the Scottish government's actions that suggest that bringing back football was against their wishes. They included the return of elite professional sport at Stage 2 in their roadmap out of coronavirus, which kicked in at some point in June. There were certainly still issues with contact training and so on at that point, but there is no reason to suspect that they didn't want football back full stop.The meeting with Leitch today occurred after this incident, so I'm not sure how this story should affect any of that, unless he's expecting Celtic to have invented a time machine to go back and tell him not to do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flood Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 You wonder if Bolingoli owned up after the call with the Scottish Government clarifying rules , or after he was outed on sevco forums last night... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I thought the government said - as part of the self isolation on return - that people returning from Spain etc would be checked up upon to make sure they were self isolating? How did a professional footballer manage to get to Spain and back then manage to take the field? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did a professional footballer manage to get to Spain and back then manage to take the field? I guess because they aren't following people around to make sure they are complying? Probably just a phone call at some point during the however many days isolation. These things mainly rely on trust and 70%-90% of people doing what they are told. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Once again it's a slap on the face of fans who have sacrificed seeing family members/friends for months, who have also ploughed their hard earned money into the club, who have bought season tickets without knowing when they'll see a game live and it will be the fans that lose out again if they delay us getting into the grounds or indeed suspend the football again. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlandmagyar 2nd Tier Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 This is hilarious. All the shenanigans about ending the season, league construction etc. And Premiership clubs couldn't run a raffle draw.

You do understand that it wont just be the Premiership that is shut down? The lower leagues will also not restart which means that many of these clubs will be in serious trouble. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No inside info - you just have to listen to what the SG have been saying all along and what NS herself said in the press conference. They didn't want elite sport back this early but agreed to it, with caveats. One being it's only top flight back right now and not the lower SPFL divisions, and players were expected to follow strict criteria to start training. They couldn't have elite sport at say stage 3 and have football before other sports so I would imagine the route map fitted the narrative of the times - the SPFL pushed pretty hard to get football back. Regards Prof. Leitch and yesterday's meeting - did Celtic fess up at the time or has this emerged subsequently...?
