If all goes to plan expect 2 possibly 3 signings confirmed tomorrow just in time to be parading to the fans to keep them happy on Saturday.

 

In sure most will be plesently pleased.

 

Exciting times

 

Nearly 10am now, you getting a bit nervous!

Celtic back in the Champions League. Hopefully we will still get Forster!

 

But according to one report this morning we are still some way off in meeting Celtic's valuation of £9m.

With Celtic being reinstated, do we need to look elsewhere for a Keeper and CB?

 

How about Ruddy from Norwich? Didnt our Keeper coach come from there?

 

Can't see it will change much. Forster may still want to come here. Celtic know they need to boost their squad and could do with the cash.

 

They go into a playoff round where they could face someone decent, so may well not be in the CL anyway.

Southampton signed Victor Wanyama on 11th July 2013. Celtic being in the Champions League & qualifiers didn't stop them buying him.

I know its on the BBC website, but there is nothing on the UEFA website about it & Celtic still show in the UEFA League draw. Are we sure? Seems an awfully quick decision,and Legia confirmed they only sent their submission yesterday.

Being reported by all the usual outlets and it wouldnt surprise me if uefa havn't updated their website yet.

No, but it is likely to put up the price, Celtic still have the potential of a 20mill windfall if they progress.

Celtic had a potential windfall in the summer of 2013, they still sold us Wanyama on 11th July (before the qualifiers).

I get your point, but I'm just not convinced yet that the two players are held in the same regard by Celtic.

We should walk away from Forster and look for a better keeper more realistically priced.

So your a better judge on the quality of keepers than the England coach? How many games have you seen Forster play?

By following their own rules that Legia should have been fully aware of?

 

By applying rules without consistency ...

 

Debrechen fined but not kicked out for a strikingly similar offence.

 

That and common sense. The tie was not affected by the substitution. Legia were clearly not aware of the mistake and nobody from UEFA (or Celtic) noticed it before the game.

When clear precedent shows it should be financial punishment?

 

Do you think UEFA would have thrown out barca/madrid/untied if it happened to them?

Totally different offence according to UEFA's guidelines, as per my previous post:

 

"No they haven't, that's the problem. Fielding an INELIGIBLE player has previously brought a fine, fielding a suspended player has not. Here are the UEFA disciplinary guidelines, note the use of MAY and IS.

 

A match is declared forfeit if a player who has been suspended following a

disciplinary decision participates in the match.

2

A match is also declared forfeit in application of

Article 19(1) of these

regulations.

3

A match may be declared forfeit if a player who is

ineligible under the regulations

of the competition concerned participates in the match, as long as the opposing

club files a protest. "

Where is the "clear precedent"? All I've seen so far from people saying its wrong regarding other clubs getting financial punishments is for different offences to what Legia did. So they aren't precedents at all.

Does seem very odd seeing us other clubs have got away with similar errors.

 

I mean he was on for like 2 minutes, what difference does it make. If he was fielded for the whole game maybe but Celtic were out already by that point.

Posted

2014 and Uefa dont have a computer system for lineups to prevent things like that happening in their biggest competition....

 

I guess it would cost them a bit money that they instead can use on their representation and hotels....

Jump off the itchen mate.

 

You're boring.

Drawn against Maribor, think they'd have about an even chance of getting through. They should have beaten Legia really, lack of preparation perhaps or just that their new manager hasn't got a clue what he's doing.

What you don't realise is that MLG is sponsored by a group of Saintsweb posters to clean up the garbage left behind by random wobbly-throwers so that we don't have to. He's the SWF water carrier - somebody has to do it.

That could be the one we didn't see coming.

 

And we won't see him coming...well unless we are at Carrington that is. Utd wanted Vermaelen, they won't get him cos he'll go to Barca so I expect Blind is their fall back option.
