HibeeJibee Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I should say that having reached the end of the whole 45min those comments about Celtic are about the only ones. Although there is a bit at the end after a press question where they basically try to say "well if it was us we'd have refused it on sporting grounds" which is easy to say until you're in the situation. Generally they come across us dignified, saddened and apologetic. Naturally, they feel hard-done by and hope there's some way they can find a solution. If it had all been the other way around I'm sure the Scottish club would be saying similar things - and the Poles would probably be reacting in a similar way, too. Ultimately what has happened has happened, and I do not see how they can get it reversed. There are also sobering aspects to it. One official who'd worked for them for "several dozen years" has resigned in shame even though it wasn't his fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 If rules are rules and prescident is prescident.......why where Celtic berating Rapid Vienna the other year in the Europa League?It's because one of their players pretended to have been struck by a bottle to gain an advantage. Next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Imagine asking Celtic to behave with honour and decency If there's one club in European football that you wouldn't make that plea to it's Celtic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_B Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Do elaborate ... Celtic are a vile organisation, built on bigotry and intolerance. There is nothing sporting about Celtic, and no sense of honour. Don't get me wrong, this is an embarrassing plea from the Poles and would be accepted by no club, but really if you are choosing to appeal on the grounds of sporting integrity, doing so to a club which has no concept of any integrity, is really redefining futile.

Monkey Tennis Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Legia are just attempting to appeal in all directions in the hope that something comes off. It won't do though. I'm not sure if the open letter is a great idea, but it's quite funny. Of course Celtic aren't going to agree to any discussions or re-match and will continue to leave things to UEFA. It's funny though that Legia are appealing to Celtic's marvellous tradition of fairness, because we all know that it's utter shit. The modern Celtic has as much connection to justice(social, sporting or otherwise) as Rangers does to dignity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Scottish football `has destroyed them .. calamitous I tell ye !! For "Booming... I tells you" from the No8 stable, Just read "calamitous .. I tell ye" from Dhenbhoy. You don't make this twin cheeks argument tricky for us, do you?

H_B Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yes ... lessons on bigotry, tolerance, fair and play sporting integrity from a bear with 'Glasgow University' as his team .... dear god !!! Least I am not ashamed of who I support and have to hide it. :lol: The biggest bigots and tax cheating scum ever seen and that title is not confined to Scotland. It's about the only the world title you can truly claim. The one club ... now that is futile!! Ah Yes. The mewling cry of the green bigot. Anyone who doesn't like Celtic must be "wan eh them". A scumbag supporting a cretinous club. Fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Psychosis Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Celtic should just print out the section of company law that would make it illegal for a PLC to voluntarily walk away from £15m+ and say "sorry chaps, no can do". Not that they would anyway (and rightly so). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellbhoy Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 5 days have come and still feck all from UEFA Although a bit jammy for the hoops UEFA will not overturn any ruling they have meted out because that will open the doors for every club with a grievance as far as down to a few fans behaviour at matches to have any bad result for their club to be overturned. Truly despo stuff from Legia though ? WTF ? can't they just accept they fucked it up big time and are now paying the price for one of the most bizarre punishments I've ever witnessed !, forfeiting one tie to a default 3 nil defeat because some silly woman did not file the correct paperwork for a player to serve his suspension ????. Celtic one be cast as one of the luckiest clubs in European football by being reinstated twice in less than 5 years back into European competitions , even more funny it totally gets to the bears and makes them totally mental to watch their biggest rivals they've never played rake the dosh I'm sure now that every European club will now make sure all their paperwork is in order before playing the luckiest club in Europe just incase there a clerical error.

The 6 - 1 scudding must have slipped your mind lol If you can find an official UEFA document that shows a 6-1 drubbing then do so Benny. I think you'll find the official scoreline was a draw at 4 each but with Celtic managing to just oust Legia Warsaw out on a single solitary away goal. I think going through on a single away goal counts as being a bit jammy. The history books will show that Celtic beat Legia Warsaw 3 nil at Murrayfield.
