    I feel like this is just getting a bit ridiculous.

    Which is making the conspiracy theorist in me think there is more to it than meets the eye.

    I think the Scottish Cup semi finals and final should be brought forward to stop them from blocking our quadruple treble.

    I would love it if the huns, trying to block 9IAR say that they are worried about coronavirus spread and want the season postponed and the SFA say, is that you conceding the title and huns * themselves if they agreed and it got out.

    One of their fans called us being given the title "illegal". We are going to win it anyway, the biggest problem for Rangers is lost ticket money, it would cost all clubs a bucket load but we could cope with the losses as we have millions in reserves, they have Brandon Barker in their reserves.

    This has the potential to kill millions, if it gets to the point that fans can't go they should fulfill all fixtures behind closed doors and complete league. The cup could potentially get pushed to far side of summer ?

    CELTIC Football Club has outlined some measures it has taken in light of the ongoing issues concerning Coronavirus.

    As the SFA/SPFL Joint Response Group has stated, the health of first team environments across all clubs must be a priority.

    In response to health advice being given and in line with a number of other clubs globally, Celtic will be asking players to limit their appearances at events outwith training and playing duties, and to temporarily avoid interactions such as providing photographs/selfies or autographs.

    The Club has already put in place a number of its own appropriate proactive measures across all Club operations and venues. These additional measures aim to protect the ongoing well-being of the Celtic squad and mirror the approach taken by a number of other clubs.

    Clearly, the Club and our players know the huge importance of making time for our supporters and, of course, we regret any inconvenience caused by these temporary measures.

    We thank all our fans for their continuing support

    Very sensible....

    Praises to Shved and Soro for being so proactive and ‘self-isolating’ for so long.

    most of the leagues in europe have gone to a policy of playing games behind closed doors, the SFPL will sit and wait until the EPL make a decision and follow suit.

    think it's their own football authorities that have taken the decision to play behind closed doors

    Behind closed doors should be enough.

    I totally get that people are concerned, but all figures and thinking points to this being able to be contained - China is slowing in it's infections (last I knew, could have changed since) after some serious isolation and lock downs. Italy now following suit. The rest of us will just be hoping it gets a cure sooner than needing to do that.

    BUT, that said, for those who do get it, the issue seems to be with the elderly and folk with some health issues to begin with, ie weaker immune systems.
    If there is one group of people that I would imagine to be able to "fight" this off like any other flu, it would be pro athletes in the 20-35 age group, which is every footballer out there. So for me, closed doors should be fine, so long as the clubs are taking other measures to keep the players clean etc outside of it. The bigger fear to not play closed doors is more for the fans and the congregation of so many people with such vast demographics.

    I would say your probably right there. At some point maybe games have to be played behind closed doors but that should be enough.
