Monkey Tennis Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 This is what makes it funny. Nobody abroad gives a stuff about Scottish domestic football anyway - why would they? Results like this for the OF are always to be celebrated, especially when preceded by such hubris. 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 This will be the first season in Champions League history that no games were staged in Glasgow. That'll be a pub quiz question some day 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bing (2) Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 You not heard the news .... Sion all over again. @RobertBlaszczak: Legia's right-back Bereszyński was red-carded last season but wasn't registered vs St Patrick's to serve his suspension. @RobertBlaszczak: It could still be a matter of interpretation but things don't look bright for Legia as we speak. UEFA have confirmed an investigation. @RobertBlaszczak: It's Celtic v Sion all over again and a nightmare scenario for Legia who comfortably defeated Celtic over two legs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Should be an even better laugh to see Selik getting fucked out the Champs League twice in one season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 If he wasn't registered vs St Pats and Legia are found guilty then surely St Pats should progress through the last round and face Celtic? St Pats pumping Celtic would be even funnier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle 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? 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 (edited) BBC reporting highlights a more relevant precedent than Sion http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/28693855 However, in 2010, Uefa fined Debrecen £15,000 but rejected a protest from opponents Litex Lovech, who wanted the Hungarian side kicked out of the tournament for fielding an ineligible player. Debrecen argued that they fielded Peter Mate in good faith as a substitute in Bulgaria when they were leading 4-1 on aggregate. Uefa ruled that Debrecen had "no interest in fielding this player for the three last minutes of additional time, when the score was so clearly in its favour."

However, as he was meant to be named in the squad if they wanted the suspension to count for that game............they are fooked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They appear to be slightly different in that the player Debrecen played wasn't banned. Not sure how it'll all work, if he was indeed not on the squad list for st pats then looks like the rules are fairly clear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't listed in the squad. The Legia player was banned from the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...

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...
