Before Saturdays' match.

"While there are travel exemptions in place for elite sports which are designed to facilitate international and European competition, if we feel they are being abused, we won't hesitate to remove this privilege." Deputy First Minister John Swinney also commented on Celtic's trip to Dubai as he admitted it wasn't a "particularly great example to set". Speaking to John Beattie on BBC Radio Scotland, he said: "They will be allowed back in but they'll have to follow all rules in the process. "Frankly, I don't think it's a good idea to be doing that at this stage. I don't think it's a good idea. "I don't think it's a particularly great example to set to people when we're asking members of the public to take on very significant restrictions on the way in which they live their lives. "I think we've all got to demonstrate leadership on this particular question." However, Celtic have insisted they made authorities, including the Scottish Government, aware of their plans to travel to Dubai in November last year. A statement read: "The training camp was arranged a number of months ago and approved by all relevant footballing authorities and the Scottish Government through the Joint Response Group on 12th November 2020. "The team travelled prior to any new lockdown being in place, to a location exempt from travel restrictions. "The camp, the same one as we have undertaken for a number of years has been fully risk assessed. "If the club had not received Scottish Government approval then we would not have travelled." https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6490346/celtic-scottish-government-sfa-look-dubai-trip-covid-19/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1609786593

The SFA/SPFL cabal will just make up new rules again so as to benefit Separate Entity FC regardless of existing rules! fully backed by Nazi Nicola and her cult followers!.

Now that Nazi Nicola has put everyone on full lockdown how does that leave Separate Entity FC? stuck in Dubai?

Maybe they are planning to catch COVID and get the league stopped? ?

Aye I know! everybody is different, thankfully

???

Never experienced that?. I'm just saying the way some guys approach games makes me think they never have the time to enjoy the match if they are terrified before during and after!.?

I'm beginning to think you are serious with all this voodoo, juju nonsense!!

Disgraceful that so called experts write that pish, only in the backwater of the Republic of Scotland

McGregor, kept us in the match. Tav had another good game he was involved in all our best moves, ball up to Morelos, great free kick into the box which should have been put away, and the corner he put in for the goal.

?

Fair enough, just after beating them in a very important match I just feel we should enjoy every time we beat them. On to the sheep match now!.

It is a bit of a doom & gloom thread tbh, nobody is saying we have won anything yet, but it really is ok to enjoy any victory over that mob, we have so far had an excellent season. I honestly think some Rangers fans start the season dreading it and continue that worry all season, that is not healthy or enjoyable, it must make it a long season for those fans.

But for Allan McGregor and a dubious red card for Nir Bitton, Celts might have got what they deserved from Ibrox. Eight years ago Rangers were on their knees. The liquidation of the Ibrox club was a lottery win for Lawwell. In just eight years Rangers have emerged from the ashes of liquidation to become the best team in the country. You couldn’t make it up. Say what you like about the Green Brigade but at least they are holding directors’ feet to the fire. Nobody wants to see the mob-handed protests that followed the Ross County defeat, but I get their anger. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6482845/celtic-lennon-pay-10-row-failure-board-davie-provan/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1609625115
