Some Celtic fans have been discussing the latest tweet that Superscoreboard recently relayed on Twitter.
Superscoreboard relayed a tweet that had Hugh Keevins’ opinion about the Scottish game. Keevins said that Scottish football is still stuck in the ‘old normal’ when it comes to handling the issues raised by the pandemic.
On seeing this tweet, many Celtic fans were left talking. They agreed with what Keevins said, while others want him to blame their Old Firm rivals for what he had to say.
We all know that this is a fabricated scandal. A minor embarrassment for the SPFL has been blown out of all proportion by Rangers. We all want it played, unless it physically can’t be. Rangers don’t have an alternative to what the other clubs voted on. All else is distraction.

Would handing Celtic the Premiership title be the right decision?
Of course!
I don't think so
100% agree Hugh, fulled by an agenda based media. You often ridicule people for that opinion but of late its very difficult to argue against it.

Ahhh Hugh, why don’t you just be perfectly honest and put your head above the parapet and call Rangers out for bringing the game into disrepute? If it was Neil Lennon or Scott Brown coming out the stuff Gerrard and his board are then I’m sure there would be charges immediately

Hugh you are old enough to know if they had compelling evidence , their friends from the newapapers and sky sports would be all over it , giving it wall to wall coverage .

Mostly due to the old journalists and their agendas. Get some new blood in .

Good idea Hugh. I suggested much the same on Superscoreboard a couple of weeks ago.. Want an enquiry, put up £1.5 mil to cover the cost. If you win, you get it back. Lose and it’s gone. Gers must reckon they have something, they’ve had a man on the inside for long enough.

Keevins’ article on the website talked about how Rangers have provided fans with a ‘compelling distraction’ when there is no football because of the lockdown. He also criticised the Gers for voting in favour of having a second independent investigation about the SPFL voting.
What do we think?
Judging by their reaction, Celtic fans seem annoyed by the whole situation surrounding the SPFL’s resolution over the Scottish football season. And they have every right to be frustrated as their prospective ninth consecutive title hangs in the balance. They find themselves at the top of the Premiership table and because of their 13-point lead, they are the closest to sealing the title, even if games are to be resumed.
If they do win the title, they will come closer to winning a historic 10th title in a row next season. The comments of the Celtic fans show that they are desperate to win the title in any way possible.
