In all honesty, it is highly likely we already have enough points to win the league - they are dross 33 minutes ago, RabiDuck said: Don't let @Rousseau hear you talking like that... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Seems to me there are two different issues here. One is the point of mathematical certainty that, by definition, arrives when it arrives. The other is winning the race to be champions and surely it's tedious to pretend we didn't actually win that race several weeks ago. Certainly, when Celtic started 2021 with a loss and 3 draws, the race was well over. Since that point there has been no realistic role for caution or concern. I know I've been celebrating our return to the top for over a month. Confirming it with a mathematical certainty is just pedantry. It's done, over, finito, crack the champagne. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,581 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I won't be celebrating until it's official, even though I think there's no chance of us being caught. It's just protocol. I think there's as much chance of us dropping points before we arrive at the Piggery, as there is them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can only be based on the tea leaves, or the thoughts of a born pessimist! ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil's advocaat 1,275 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Predictions due to probability require to be taken across as broad a data field as practical, so points per game is a better data form rather than visits to individual grounds, But aye, we've no really done well there, granted!. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect one from them and I certainly wouldn't expect us to ever give them one. It IS a nonsense. However, the press vilified us for supposedly not giving them one, we were called classless..... by their current manager.... So whilst it is a nonsense, I would have no hesitation in reminding them how we were treated when they were in the same position. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
